Llama Mouth! by vantid

Sun, 14 Sep 2008 14:14:17 -0000

A thank you gift for the person who helped me set up pressure sensitivity for my Mac in Sketcher. They asked for a big, funny, festering monster. What's scarier and funnier than a llama mouth!

Fuji Musume by vantid

Sun, 14 Sep 2008 14:12:21 -0000

A commission for LeftWingDuck of her calico kitty, Tune. This was inspired by some photos of traditional Japanese dancing, specifically the Wisteria Maiden. the hand didn't turn out as kitty pawed as I would have liked, but that's because I have a hard time drawing and the paper was fed up with me erasing.

Coyote joy! Created in the Artspots paint chat. While I wish Sketcher had pressure support for Macs, it it a nice exercise to work without.

The original sketch that I called "Cathedrals in Butterfly Wings". Why? Cause I can see, among other things, the arcs of cathedrals in butterfly wings.

Cathedrals in Butterfly Wings (lost WIP) by vantid

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 17:34:48 -0000

This is the only copy of have of this piece, which makes me very very sad. It was as if I was doomed to never complete this piece from the start. After losing the first version to one of Painter's whims (the program crashed and corrupted the file, and ever since then I have made back ups of every file. Painter 10 does this automatically), I started over with the idea of making it bigger and better. And it was! This was almost done when I left it. Sometime later, the computer suffered a hard drive failure and for some reason, this piece was never recovered. I had changed the legs a bit since this version was saved, finished the wings, and added grass. Urgh. I do want to try this again, some day. If any of you have the almost done web copy that I emailed out, please send it to me!

Humbird Concepts by vantid

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 17:23:53 -0000

I don't know why it got into my head today to upload unfinished stuff, but here it is. This is one page of dozens that I have of Whirbird scribbles. I thought I had many more scanned, but I must have deleted them for hard drive space. Anyway, some pretty lame attempts at a composition with which I never followed through. I wanted a storm background with that golden green sunlight typical of stormy days glinting off the back of the Whirbird and the key.

A sketch for a commissioner. I was trying to make a more dramatic pose than usual. Critiques are highly encouraged!!!! If you want to redline this even, that would make you awesome. I'm waiting to hear back about coloring this piece, which I hope happens cause I have an idea for this.
