Dive In Animatic

I did this chunk of boards a few months ago. Just some more boarding practice. Here's the animatic of what I made.

First Plush

Years ago I had made a couple plushies by hand (just fabric, a needle, and thread. I didn't have a sewing machine)

Fairly recently Me and Petrina tried to make an attempt at sewing together a plush. Starting with a basic body, we went for it, petrina using a sewing machine, and I designed his look, and sowed much of it by hand. The result is this plush, Mr. Fancy!



You can check out some of Petrina's work here: http://petridesign.blogspot.com/

And she's selling a guitar for you music people out there!

Hiccup

Video Game Inspired Paintings 1

I'm working on a series of 50 Video Game Inspired Paintings. (They're all 3" x 3.5" gouache on illustration board) I'll be posting 1 or 2 a day until I'm done with all of them. I'm also selling them! You can contact me at robertiza85@gmail.com

They're going for $25 each (Including shipping)

These are also examples of commissions which I'm opening. They're the same cost, and I'd be shipping the original painting to you. It can be whatever you'd like, have 1 to 3 characters, and send me reference of whatever it is if possible.

DONKEY KONG


Donkey Kong was always one of my favorite old school arcade games! The design and simple yet challenging gameplay are fantastic, really appealing all around.

KAMEK


Kamek was a fun character I've loved from the mario games as well as Yoshi's Island. I also really love his magic wand that shoots those 3 shapes in primary colors.
