Boards from HELL!

Hey everyone. I'm just eating some stale tortilla chips watching "My Name is Earl." I'm trying to get a story portfolio together, whilst I am swarmed with a crap ton of other stuff on a gnarly list of things that I need to get done.
I wanna show you guys some rough, 1st pass boards from a project I'm working on for my portfolio. I'ma save giving away the story for when the boards are complete.
Here are a couple:

I think these aren't too bad for a first pass, so I'm excited to see it blossom a tad more. Hope you're all well.

I love you.

Enjoy the show!

From Hell with Love

YO! I'm working on a character design portfolio for the heck of it and I did some work on these demon folks. 

DEMONS!!! I love you guys. Enjoy the show.

Classroom Sketches

Do you guys remember being in High school and drawing in class when you weren't supposed to? That what I'm doing in community college. Deja friggen vu.

Ok, i lied. Some of this is from a class, the other is from a night in hollywood.
AAAANNNYYWWAAYYSSS.... enjoy the show. 

OH MY GOD, DUDE! I am soooo sorry!

DUDE! I am wicked sorry I haven't talked to you in a while! How are you? I'm sorry, I've just been so busy! Man do I have sstttoorriieeesss!

Ok, so. As of my last post, I have been on academic leave from Calarts (due to financial woes and poor academic decisions) I have spent the summer doing freelance storyboard work for nickelodeon, I have been working on improving my portfolios (both design and story) and I have been doing stuff for my the show I want to pitch. I just completed a story test for Cartoon Network (the regular show) and I am waiting on that. I am also applying for jobs all over the animation circuit.
SO..... I've been busy. My life has been swamped with all these strange events and antics. It's kind of amazing. I don't have time for much of anything else between portfolios, homework and job apps (so my blog posting suffers.) I've never felt this busy... but i'm taking steps to my career and I know that I am doing the right thing, making the right choices and setting my priorities... <----- this here.. this is a confession of a starving, self conscious artist. As you can see... totally nervous as FFUUCCKKK!!!

Anyways, here is some stuff I have drawn. Just wanted to keep you posted with some of the fun adventures I have had from my computer screen.

Just sum sshheeiiittt.

As always... enjoy the show!

Commedia Dell'Arte

Anybody wanna laugh?

For anybody that doesn't know, Commedia Dell'Arte is a form of mask theatre, known to possess the original archetypes of comical characters in all forms of entertainment. All comical characters from entertainment posses aspects of these characters, from Bugs bunny to Bart Simpson.

Anyways, I did some character designs of some of the characters found in Commedia (I made them impish too... not sure why.)

From left to right:

Arlecchino 

Pantelone

Dottore

Brighella

Pagliacci 

I would love to see some traditional commedia theatre, one day. Probably be hilarious.

Enjoy the show.

Canine Conundrum

Yo, peeps!

I drew me some animals in victorian suits. I may do this more often cus it's fun... Anyways... This is a Fox, wolf and a Coyote.

Enjoy the show.

So... this Kid

Hey... How's it goin?

it's been a while. Sorry about that.... I've been busy doing freelance, and it being studio work, I can't show you guys what I have been doing. So, over the last couple of days, I doodled around with some more stuff.

You guys are prolly sick of seeing him, but I did some redesigns of Andy for my potential show pitch. These are just some stuff of him and his god buddy Jimmy.

I've had no time to work on this much, but I hope that I can make some time to write an episode (and maybe even board it.)
Hope you are all doin well.

Enjoy the show!
