Some small sketches I did of an alien skull from the game Starcraft 2. It may become a future prop project of mine, so I'm trying to get the feel of the form I will need to make.

To the right is a sketch I just did to layout the engraving I will need to do on the side of the barrel of a prop I am working on. The right is a mocked up photo of how the engraving will sit on the photo.

Jack-O-Lantern sketch from sketch club today.

Some sketches I did today at Sketch Club. Octopi came up in conversation today!

Trying out some techniques I've learned about over the past few days and decided to try something of the more mechanical variety today. Was a fun process and I'd like to give it another try soon!

So a friend of mine who runs the Sketch Club I attend recommended I obtain a skull and draw it as often as possible to gain a stronger understanding of the structure that supports our face's muscles and skin. Well, the skull arrived last night and today I took some time to sketch the first still life I've drawn since college. It also gave me the chance to try out these gray scale brush pens I bought a little while back.

I could probably spend the rest of my life trying to tweak this painting. Instead I'm going to move on and call this finished.

"Dragon's Eye Cavern"

Spent a good portion of the day working on 'Dragon's Eye Cavern'. Here is a WIP snapshot of it so far.

Here is the under-painting for the digital painting of 'Dragon's Eye Cavern'

A few thumbnails for some landscape's I'd like to paint. Especially 'Dragon's Eye Cavern'

Here is an environmental painting I worked on today. Still trying to get a solid digital painting workflow down.

Today, after watching some interesting videos centered around digital painting over the weekend, I decided to carry out one of the techniques demonstrated. The process involved selecting some interesting landscape photographs, attempting to choose the colors in the photo by eye, and then utilizing a very small canvas to create 3 quick thumbnail drawings with the colors chosen.

The themes for today's daily sketch on Reddit's daily sketch sub-reddit was "Gradient" and "Parasite".

Here was my submission.

Here is The Mummy.

Here is an expanded view of the layers I am using in my Mummy painting.

For this year's Halloween series I decided to get more into the digital side of things. Here is Frankenstein's Monster.

Slenderman

One day, at sketch club, there was a lengthy discussion about the Alien movies. I started sketching skulls as that conversation was taking place and the result was a bunch of alien skulls.

Got aah... flaming zombie head?

A Sketch Club sketch of one of my favorite horror entities: Slenderman.

Some Sketch Club sketches of various jack-o-lanterns.

This started as a sketch to become more acquainted with Photoshop. But with a touch of trademark infringement and crass vulgarity BAM we get this.

Here is something I sketched at Sketch Club getting ready for annual Halloween themed series.

I painted this bottom panel to one of my favorite memes: Staredad.

I saw a post on Reddit.com exclaiming the fun of the 'Floor is Lava' game. I took that idea and mixed it with a bit of rage face and this popped out.

Hey there! So this is the first post on a blog that should have existed for a while now. I'm going to start by posting some of the sketches I have scanned or photographed in the past few years. From this point on I will just be posting current pieces or WIP pictures.

You're more than welcome to hop over to my prop building blog as well and check out that side of my work.

So here is a small collection of some sketches. They range from digital paintings to pencil sketches. You may notice themes, but there is no real order here.
