Two different approaches to the same illustration. Really feel like I could push to recolor this one a few more times. I'm really having fun trying out new things. I'v been reading Fear Agent by Rick Remender lately. Awesome series, and definitely what inspired this dude.</div>

So this is the second of the two cards I did for Cryptozoic's trading card series. I have to say, to have done these both was pretty cool. I remember as a kid collecting the Marvel Masterpiece series as well as a Wolverine series of trading cards. The Wolverine series was my favorite. I think I still have those cards somewhere. The series comprised of roughly 100 cards, 6 of which were special chrome or foil plated ones. They had this shiny surface element to them, I believe the one specifically I had from the Wolverine series had Omega Red on it. Well, the good folks over at Cryptozoic sent me a handful of cards, personal copies of my 2 cards to keep, and low and behold, one of each were given the fancy shiny reflective treatment! Total geek out moment! I'm not sure I'll be fortunate enough to do a base card again, but I'll forever be stoked to have that moment of seeing my art in a shiny trading card. Inner ten year old me is grinning like a fool. Huge thanks to George and the gang at Cryptozoic!<br />

Cheers!<br />

These layouts are from the same episode that I drew the car interiors for. Interesting thing about these, is that most are used really for reference and reproduction for the animators over seas. Well at least the BG below here, and the one down at the bottom. The above was a static shot I believe, as is the third one down.<br />

Hope me sharing these Regular Show BGs is interesting. I'm actually under a pretty gnarly work deadline right now, and don't have much free time to do more then share some older work for now.<br />

I'll drop the last 3 layouts for this episode tomorrow. And truth be told, will most likely just continue to roll out the remainder of what I have to share from my work on Regular Show while I'm at it.<br />

Took a second pass at an older sketch I'v always wanted to paint. I'm much happier with it this time, but still feel like there's plenty of room for improvement.<br />

I had a lengthy little thought all about humility and hard work I was going to write up for this post, but upon talking through my idea with my wife today, I stumbled upon a better message I think I might share later this week.<br />
The gist behind my thoughts on humility and hard work and why these car interiors related is simply boiled down to this: These two layouts were probably the hardest two for me to grasp since pitching in duties working with the wonderful folks over at CN. I could go on and on about the process from the boards I worked from to the numerous revisions I received before finally getting things nailed down correctly. I learned a lot. In fact it's safe to say I learned more getting things wrong as apposed to the BGs I received minor revisions on. It's easy to let failure grow into something worse in your head.<br />
The best thing to do is just swallow it, work hard, learn, and grow.<br />

So here's the other half of layouts I did for the Thanksgiving Special. There were actually a couple more in addition to these, but they're not always as interesting to check out as you'd think. Sometimes the BG is simply a wall, a floor, maybe a window. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vE4rYVbI-VU/U2RLNKEWtVI/AAAAAAAAC0E/Oh9wMqaO-co/s1600/Reg5.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vE4rYVbI-VU/U2RLNKEWtVI/AAAAAAAAC0E/Oh9wMqaO-co/s1600/Reg5.png" height="388" width="640" /></a></div>
These ones were a lot of fun to work on. I'll most likely post the next couple of episode's I had the pleasure of working on over the next couple days.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Nothing really puts into perspective how behind on posting I am like sharing my work from Regular Shows Thanksgiving special in May. Which also reminds me that I actually created these BGs a little over a year ago. Wow how time has flown by!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

If you're a fan of the show and you've seen this episode (which is awesome BTW), I was fortunate enough to design all the layout work on the blimp scene in the third act of the special. </div>

So probably the coolest bit of news I've yet to share til now is that for the past year I've been freelancing doing <b>backgrounds</b> for Regular Show over at Cartoon Network.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OgHPDD_NjRE/Uns8jk8U3bI/AAAAAAAAClQ/ix2Jn-samUE/s1600/2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="376" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OgHPDD_NjRE/Uns8jk8U3bI/AAAAAAAAClQ/ix2Jn-samUE/s640/2.png" width="640" /></a></div>
The first episode I worked on, is titled "Laundry Woes". It aired this past September, which I believe kicked off the shows 5th season. These are a few of the backgrounds I did for that episode.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Wrh5_5YaAhI/Uns8j416D7I/AAAAAAAAClU/sAYE9wrn30Y/s1600/3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="258" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Wrh5_5YaAhI/Uns8j416D7I/AAAAAAAAClU/sAYE9wrn30Y/s640/3.png" width="640" /></a></div>
It's been a really great opportunity for me, and I really enjoy the great folks on that show I get the privilege to work with.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EhmoZ_rv-wc/Uns8kXNOs3I/AAAAAAAAClg/vvCTDPLilHo/s1600/4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="382" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EhmoZ_rv-wc/Uns8kXNOs3I/AAAAAAAAClg/vvCTDPLilHo/s640/4.png" width="640" /></a></div>
The next episode I worked on airs this Thanksgiving. In addition to contributing to that episode, there are a few others that air early 2014 (I believe).<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here is a little peak at what I've been up to at work. A Background, a few re-skins for a game we run, and a look at a few character designs I did for our site. The first batch I thought I'd share a few rough sketches to accompany the final art. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As I mentioned in my last post, my wife and I recently visited the 'big apple' and I most definitely came home inspired. I feel like this piece is the first of (hopefully) many in a new direction for my work. I loved working on it. I used three photos from our trip as reference/inspiration and kept the painting to pretty much one layer in PS. It was a nice revisit to how I learned to paint, which of coarse was traditional vs. the digital standard my work has managed to become. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I could blab on for quite some time about my thought process and what
inspired and excited me along the way, but I'll spare ya's. I did want to share the grey-scale of the piece above to share the importance of value in painting. I'm not saying I'm anywhere close to amazing or great or what have you to doing this, but I am pleased with my results here. <br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by! Til next time. Cheers!<br />

It was very relaxing, and inspiring. Kinda got my creative juices revitalized. I did a little bit of sketching and painting while there and want to explore what I did in the moment a little bit more at home. The above piece is a watercolor I painted in a cozy little bar in Brooklyn (yes these people actually had these hairdos). Below that I did a quick pass in Photoshop for fun. The second pass is much closer to the actual lighting in the bar, though i did push it a little for dramatic effect.<br />

Here's a look at a few of the Superman sketch cards I recently had the pleasure of doing for Cryptozoic Entertainment. I actually did 100 in total on this batch. What's shared below is a little over half of my contribution.<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WEtC0oFhSbs/UXjxCOsnlCI/AAAAAAAACPY/fXTAgX-me2U/s1600/Kal+El.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="448" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WEtC0oFhSbs/UXjxCOsnlCI/AAAAAAAACPY/fXTAgX-me2U/s640/Kal+El.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The above set are most of my 'Superman' cards with a couple 'Super' powerhouses in that bottom row. It's fun and interesting how many looks the big blue boy-scout from Krypton has taken on over the years.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below are the 'badies'. I love drawing/designing villains. So much fun.</div>

Lastly, I had the pleasure of working with my buddy <a href="http://jeffvictor.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Jeff Victor (clicky here for more of his awesomeness)</a> on a few jam cards. These are my two favorite, we did 6 total together. For these two in particular, <a href="http://jeffvictor.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Jeff</a> sketched out Superman and passed the card along to me. I had free reign on choosing whom else was depicted on the card and putting ink and color to it for final treatment. Likewise I sketched out half of a few cards and vice versa. I have a huge soft spot for Krypto the Super dog, so it's no surprise he ended up on one. </div>

Overall I'm really pleased with the final results.</div>
