All the design work was completed before hand by a handful of Disney artist's that are much more talented than myself, so special thanks to them.  I did learn quite a bit from this piece as I don't normally do full digital paintings.   I was trying to use warm and cool colors as a solid base for all the design and rendering.  I would place a warm and cool grad on top of a generic multiply shadow layer.  I merged all the layers together, including the base local color layer, and then concentrated on painting form and making objects turn in space.  All of this becomes much easier when you have a nice Kingdom Hearts reference book to go from. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope all you Disney fans enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-6125317665678879086?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/6125317665678879086/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=6125317665678879086' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/6125317665678879086'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/6125317665678879086'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2011/09/kingdm-hearts-is-done.html' title='Kingdm Hearts is Done'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9CV8CFJQCRs/TmHVdA08NjI/AAAAAAAAAb8/u1-lFHR2vZQ/s72-c/KH%2Bfinal.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-6900524477766302473</id><published>2011-08-27T01:13:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-27T01:31:33.132-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Yoda and Swamp Creature</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mcqZqW3wWM4/TlinTELXxuI/AAAAAAAAAb0/92v5EN2ZbdQ/s1600/yoda%2Bfinal%2Bline%2Bart.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 210px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mcqZqW3wWM4/TlinTELXxuI/AAAAAAAAAb0/92v5EN2ZbdQ/s320/yoda%2Bfinal%2Bline%2Bart.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5645446078889707234" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  I've always wanted to draw Yoda levitating a giant beast.  My problem is that the beast is never big enough.  If I had my way Yoda would be a spec and the monster would take up most of the page.  But the drawing is about Yoda, so you need something that fans can recognize.  I had to  redraw the beast several times just to get him to 1) fit on the sheet of paper, and 2) correlate with Yoda's small stature and environment.  I'll admit that I always make too many marks when drawing.  You know a seasoned veteran illustrator when they can draw something like this in less time and with fewer marks that relay more information than my scratches and squiggles ever could.  I hope to cover a lot of the background  drawing with color/digital paint.  I have been studying Tom Scholes work for a while, so I might try something along those lines.  He is amazing!  Take a look at his stuff&lt;a href="http://crayonboxofdoom.blogspot.com/"&gt; here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I've mentioned on my &lt;a href="http://alexfactory.deviantart.com/"&gt;DA&lt;/a&gt; site that this drawing is for my son who loves Star Wars.  He thought the creature is the swamp monster that swallowed R2 and spat him out, something I hadn't thought of while drawing it.  He has already requested it be plastered to his wall and I am more than happy to accommodate him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-6900524477766302473?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/6900524477766302473/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=6900524477766302473' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/6900524477766302473'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/6900524477766302473'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2011/08/yoda-and-swamp-creature.html' title='Yoda and Swamp Creature'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mcqZqW3wWM4/TlinTELXxuI/AAAAAAAAAb0/92v5EN2ZbdQ/s72-c/yoda%2Bfinal%2Bline%2Bart.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-4100216070211044886</id><published>2011-08-09T05:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-09T05:51:43.455-07:00</updated><title type='text'>one step closer</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZoBHHn6rNO4/TkEtDDrnokI/AAAAAAAAAbs/DZVb9Et9IbE/s1600/KH%2Blayout%2Bflat.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 293px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZoBHHn6rNO4/TkEtDDrnokI/AAAAAAAAAbs/DZVb9Et9IbE/s320/KH%2Blayout%2Bflat.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5638837738995688002" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I managed to find time to add the remaining elements of this little pinup.&lt;br /&gt;Next comes the color.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-4100216070211044886?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/4100216070211044886/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=4100216070211044886' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/4100216070211044886'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/4100216070211044886'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2011/08/one-step-closer.html' title='one step closer'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZoBHHn6rNO4/TkEtDDrnokI/AAAAAAAAAbs/DZVb9Et9IbE/s72-c/KH%2Blayout%2Bflat.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-864588926461843812</id><published>2011-07-13T05:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-07-13T05:56:10.937-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Kingdon Hearts Prelim</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ia-eCcziELA/Th2UkaFRpPI/AAAAAAAAAbk/Lz22Dg3IAw0/s1600/KH%2Blayout%2Bpost.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 260px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ia-eCcziELA/Th2UkaFRpPI/AAAAAAAAAbk/Lz22Dg3IAw0/s320/KH%2Blayout%2Bpost.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628818462480639218" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This is a in-progress Kingdom Hearts commission I'm working on.

So, I tried another thumbnail and got this salamander like creature instead.  I liked the composition better, but I really wanted a more bizarre and frightening creature.  Thus the Boarmander was born and can be seen at the top of the three images.  I'll see if I can't sneak Yoda's hut into the back ground in the final version.   I made sure my four year old son had the final say.

The layout has more attitude and better drawing, hands down.  My next project will hopefully be more true to my layout sketches and less rendered.  This project took too long to complete in the coloring stage but it served the story well.  My next story will be longer so I will have to adjust the level of detail to fit the workload.  Looking back at this layout helps me see where this story could have been better.  It pains me to look at it!  Stupid layout!

This is a compilation of small drawings that I scanned in from my tiny sketchbook.  I would like to get another book of this size crank out more and see if I can assemble a larger poster.  This is my first attempt any how.

It's a part of a larger digital painting that I am still hammering out the composition.   The robot probably won't look anything like this in the final painting, but I haven't posted anything for a while and this was a good opportunity.  Well back to the coloring, this type of work doesn't pay the bills unfortunately.  I'll probably simplify this design down and see if I can't make ready for a t shirt print.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-2612129625424179389?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/2612129625424179389/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=2612129625424179389' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/2612129625424179389'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/2612129625424179389'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2010/01/robot-design-color-fun.html' title='Robot Design Color Fun'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/S1CaD3nDNAI/AAAAAAAAAVY/_MzP9CpPQ9U/s72-c/robot+design.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-6646835775978688344</id><published>2009-11-03T02:30:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-03T02:31:56.203-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Robot for Andrew</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SvAGUa2Mp9I/AAAAAAAAAVQ/bFWbS55a4-g/s1600-h/andrew+robot.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Their work is fantastic and I wish I had the ability to just whip out some awesome drawing in a half an hour, call it a sketch and receive comments and internet hits galore.  But it ain't gunna happen.  Instead I thought why not a breath of fresh air.  Why not lower the bar just a little and let those artists out there take in a sigh of relief and post some of my sketches.  Nothing fancy, just an actual drawing that took only a few minutes and is as rough as a blast to the gut from a shot gun full of rock salt.  I hope I have the above reaction with these future posts.  I've seen many a artist get shot down by arm chair comic fans for far more exciting drawings, but the fact is that if this blog even gets looked at, good, bad, or indifferent,  it has served it's purpose.   So let the experiment begin, and I welcome you to get a taste of some REAL SKETCHES.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Anyone who doesn't know me, doesn't know that I work at fedex office, formerly know as fedex kinkos.  Don't ask me why the dropped the "kinkos".  I don't know and I don't think Fedex knows either.  It offeres me a steady paycheck and the opportunity make these little sketch books out of whatever material I might want to draw on.  I started a chipboard sketch book and something about it makes me draw fast and loose and experiment a little more that I normally would.  It also takes ink like a dream.  So with a copic marker and a juicy pen I have it,  and I really enjoy it.  It's great for thumbnails and quick stuff.  I''l be posting these every couple of days and there are quite a few, some good and some not so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-853809488332286415?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/853809488332286415/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=853809488332286415' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/853809488332286415'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/853809488332286415'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2009/01/i-do-my-best-to-try-to-follow-artists-i.html' title=''/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SXx1YgOkBnI/AAAAAAAAASE/6OWKZL1e9b0/s72-c/chipboard_13.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-2079739808324245163</id><published>2008-12-31T05:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-31T05:11:37.803-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Manta Ray</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SVtu_8PpKdI/AAAAAAAAARQ/99OWFNwdXe0/s1600-h/manta+ray.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 215px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SVtu_8PpKdI/AAAAAAAAARQ/99OWFNwdXe0/s320/manta+ray.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285940632431962578" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Another Christmas painting.

The background is not as developed as I would like at the moment, but the painting as a whole is moving in the right direction.  I did so much work with the pencil that I might as well use it to model the guys face.  I'm getting anxious to get out the paints and attack, but other project come first at the moment.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-3564576118641977774?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/3564576118641977774/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=3564576118641977774' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/3564576118641977774'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/3564576118641977774'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2008/10/taylor-painting-comp-2.html' title='Taylor painting comp 2'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SPjBluI2R4I/AAAAAAAAAPU/zOO6l_M2XsI/s72-c/taylor+2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-4230258651934800654</id><published>2008-10-09T03:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-09T03:07:48.244-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Apes on chip board</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SO3X5LuXgJI/AAAAAAAAAPM/rApyr6Rxdg8/s1600-h/monkeys+on+chip+board.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SO3X5LuXgJI/AAAAAAAAAPM/rApyr6Rxdg8/s320/monkeys+on+chip+board.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255093717611020434" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I'm back drawing apes for a short comic story.

It was the video game system to have if you did NOT want to watch a mustachioed fat itallian bust bricks with his doughy nuckles.    And Soldiers of Fortune was one of the best games to ever come out for this system.  Great design, music, and fast passed action kept my thumbs busy for days on end.  This game is also very difficult.  I don't know how many times I had to reach for something/anything to tear apart in an agry rage to prevent myself from giving the Sega the Hulk Hogan Big Leg Drop.  I never did get through the whole thing, but this screen shot of the game gives me some great ideas on how to update my website. Those responcible for making this game look as good as it does on a 16 bit system deserve a healthy amount of praise from the people who played it.

Feel free to preorder a copy at amazon and to read up on it's distribution info &lt;a href="http://www.toxicshock.tv/news/2008/05/13/lionsgate-to-release-side-sho-plus-dvd-details/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.toxicshock.tv/news/2008/05/13/lionsgate-to-release-side-sho-plus-dvd-details/"&gt;here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  As for the above poster, I am not responsible.   LionsGate did a great job with it though and I am sure it will sell a lot more copies than my old school hand painting.  Never the less, J.R. looks great on the cover and steals the show in the film.

They are a lot of fun to do and I am amazed at how fast you can work in markers.  I have these comps for sale as prints on my &lt;a href="http://www.alexfactory.deviantart.com/"&gt;deviant art site&lt;/a&gt; for less than a dollar, so please take advantage, and let me know which comp you like best by leaving a comment or 2.  If you have a favorite let me know and it will most likely turn into a really large painting.  More to come....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-1712233948168634006?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/1712233948168634006/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=1712233948168634006' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/1712233948168634006'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/1712233948168634006'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2007/12/colossal-compositions.html' title='colossal compositions'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R3jV4T76f2I/AAAAAAAAAHU/J0Eb99UeA04/s72-c/colossus+1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-4180637594577698191</id><published>2007-12-17T02:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T23:29:07.715-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Early christmas gifts</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R2ZYFj76f1I/AAAAAAAAAHM/KDwh8OC5WNM/s1600-h/monks.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R2ZYFj76f1I/AAAAAAAAAHM/KDwh8OC5WNM/s320/monks.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5144896476886499154" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R2ZXSD76f0I/AAAAAAAAAHE/Q9oEkJYKRNY/s1600-h/hippo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R2ZXSD76f0I/AAAAAAAAAHE/Q9oEkJYKRNY/s320/hippo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5144895592123236162" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R2ZXKD76fzI/AAAAAAAAAG8/LjZ6tSGmiMQ/s1600-h/hermit+crab.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R2ZXKD76fzI/AAAAAAAAAG8/LjZ6tSGmiMQ/s320/hermit+crab.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5144895454684282674" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I passed these marker sketches out at a friend's Christmas party.

I can't really think of anywhere else I can post these drawings.  Deviant art isn't the best for posting sketches.  Either no one looks at them or the get filed away where they won't be found.  And updating a full website for just one sketch is really too much work.  I am going to try to draw something I am unfamiliar with for my warmups so I can build my visual vocab and learn something.  I have been in a rut as of late so hopefully drawing some new forms will kick up my skills a bit.  I apologize for the crappy scan, but a least you can see some of the underdrawing.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-4680817899521842650?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/4680817899521842650/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=4680817899521842650' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/4680817899521842650'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/4680817899521842650'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2007/12/warm-up-dog-skulls.html' title='warm up dog skulls'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R1PuuUzq8BI/AAAAAAAAAGY/DQxlgz4gZYw/s72-c/dog+skulls.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-7250570858676825517</id><published>2007-11-30T03:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T23:29:09.468-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Tesla Bot warmup</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R0_6gbGG1TI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/N0U8WrzNxsA/s1600-R/tesla+bot+002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/R0_6gbGG1TI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/jxXL7XpSs5U/s320/tesla+bot+002.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138601134789154098" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Robots come easy for me so they make for a good warm up sketch to get the imagination in tune with my drawing hand.

I was testing out a new brand of vellum a drew this with a sepia colored pencil.  I used it as a wam up before trying to draw some sample pages.   I worked on it a few minutes every morning  and before I new it it was finished.  I'm not too happy with the design, but I should be able to nail it after a couple more attempts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  Every time I go back to working on comics I am reminded how difficult they are to draw.  You have to be able to draw everything from every angle imaginable and it's very difficult to hide mistakes and general visual ineptitude.  I'm glad I started warming up a little before hacking away at the paper.  It saves me from digging into my page with an electric eraser for a half hour.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2109616796175301975-2076367747369700168?l=alexfactory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/feeds/2076367747369700168/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2109616796175301975&amp;postID=2076367747369700168' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/2076367747369700168'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2109616796175301975/posts/default/2076367747369700168'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexfactory.blogspot.com/2007/11/sculpture-design.html' title='sculpture design'/><author><name>Alex Campbell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02826678793674226811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/SQwxQx3HYiI/AAAAAAAAAPw/2Q_GUFVVwKY/S220/s+club+photo+3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/Ry7r-z12jSI/AAAAAAAAAFI/qAn6yI3FM4w/s72-c/tounge+angler.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109616796175301975.post-2988326882155724755</id><published>2007-10-30T17:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T23:29:11.215-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy Holloween!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/RyfORj12jRI/AAAAAAAAAFA/CdTsCdfhe6o/s1600-h/dracula+email.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Kd5V9AM8nTA/RyfORj12jRI/AAAAAAAAAFA/CdTsCdfhe6o/s320/dracula+email.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5127293501858811154" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;     Just a little sketch to get everyone in the mood for monsters and mayhem.
