Sorry for the double post but I've finally taken some photos of recent work.




Sculpture in aerated concrete, plaster and paint. Took a fucking age to carve away all the excess material. The original block was roughly an inch wider and taller, solid.
Cool stuff. I love Blood Angel, it's got this simplicity to it.

Some self portraits I took about 2 years ago. The scans are pretty lame.


They kind of look like band photos, and I mean that in a good way.

Here's something that I'll be putting into my application for art school.

Not too impressive when seen next to the stuff others have put up, though.

Two things I cooked up today while i'm avoiding writing my movie script.


Pretty much the idea behind this, is my mate wanted to turn me into a recurring character for his webcomic, it was for my birthday, so he asked me what an adventurer version of me would look like, So I drew this. (Yes, G is my real name, well when it's not Graham anyway...)


The spiffling is something that me and my special lady created a while ago, which I used for a video game project I was doing and likely posted the concept on here at some stage, I felt compelled to draw him again and he's come out more stylised and cartoony then normal.

Both done using blue leads and ink.
colour added in Photoshop.

It's an illustration for a short story I'm currently writing. I'll be doing one for every chapter.

SharPhoe I'm interested in your characters. I realize its purely a stylistic thing but what exactly are your characters? Kirby-like beings?
Well done on the rain effects by the way.

They don't have a definitive title yet, for the time being I've called them Kerricks (as in "Caricatures"). With the exception of two characters, their overall designs are original.

P.J here was my very first character I drew consecutively, and was originally a Jigglypuff, which is reason he still looks a lot like one.

And Kirby (the one on the right) was... hell, I don't even need to say it.

If you have any other questions about 'em, feel free to ask away.

"Kerricks" makes me think of Kerrek from Peasant's Quest.
One of the greatest adventure-like games ever to not come out on any system.

I know, I know. I desperately need to change it so that people don't make that connection. I'm open to any suggestions.

EDIT: Oh, I almost forgot about my character reference sheet for the main story I'm writing. It's not done yet, but these are the characters I've drawn up for it so far.

Hmmm. I'm not quite sure how to upload images, but I'll try.
This is a character I've been working on for quite some time.
This is just a doodle.

Shit. Okay, need help, either that or it just isn't loading in my browser.
EDIT: Okay, they're working now.

Upload the images to something like Photobucket and use their "Direct Link" between IMG tags.

Well, it took a while, but I finally got it to work. Thanks for the help.

Umm... looks like it's been a while since anyone posted anything in here last, since VTSK went and opened a new thread. We should probably get this ball rolling again, shouldn't we?
NOTE: Wow, you can't put two apostrophes in a spoiler tag? Weird...

Oh, I'm StarPhoe now, eh, Pi?

Kidding, of course.
Yes, SharPhoe, you are StarPhoe, and you always have been...

Gaah! The world is collapsing!
I can't trust my own perceptions!
The end is nigh!

Well, no. Seriously I have been misreading your username for quite a while.

It's no biggie. I actually considered changing to StarPhoe for quite some time. My name currently stands for SharinganPhoenix, but since I no longer watch/read Naruto, I was gonna change it to StarPhoe, short for StarchaserPhoenix. But my avatar's name is Shari, so I decided I'd keep it anyway.

Speaking of avatars, if you see this guy around:
Don't worry about it being someone stealing my work or anything. It's actually ViolentlyHappy91's new avatar he asked me to make for him. I have my first fan/follower here on The Escapist... I'm so happy... *sniff*

Here is an image I've been working on very sporadically over the past few weeks. Total time spent on it I don't know but I'd estimate somewhere between 6 and 10 total hours as a low-end estimate. I'm pretty happy with it for the most part. There are some obvious issues but I think it reads pretty well. I hope you guys like it.
I guess its about time I posted an image of a dragon considering how much I love them.
