Cleaning out the ol' studio, scanning lots of sketches into the HD, upgrading applications, setting up the new art tools - getting rid of the old battered pens and brushes, and organizing ref /art files.

Found the above ink drawing in the files and wished I had a bunch of these little helpers to help me clear out some of this stuff.

Writer Fabian Nicieza came up with this short film script based on a female assassin code- named Red Wind.
Fabian asked me to choreograpgh and direct the short film under Jeff Gomez's Starlight Runner banner.
It's always a thrill to work with talented guys like Fabian and Jeff.
The short was a fun exercise, and a great experience in low budget film making.
Above is the depiction of Red Wind in pen and ink. She has this cool raven tribal tat on her cheek that is partially seen from this angle.

Woo - hoooo!!!!

Close up of a much larger pen and ink sketch.

Playing with a heavy braid running down the center of the skull.
This was a character design for a short story involving Picts.
Btw, this fellow could have blue pigment covering his craggy mug.

Used a brush pen for this drawing.
