This is one of the most unique projects I've had in a while: I've been comissioned by a private collector to transform this old Judge Dredd pinball playfield into an unofficial Breaking Bad theme!

Here's the character turnaround illustration I originally created for the Flyers that was sent to the costume company, Character Translations Inc to make Gritty into a the big ball of orange fur we all love or hate! I originally submitted 25 different 20-minute rough sketches of what the mascot could be, and the Art Directors picked something very similar to what Gritty looks like today. We went through many different variations (such as adding wings, a tail, different colors, teeth, etc) before arriving at this turnaround. **I will probably do a live dawing session Friday afternoon around 2pm EST on my YouTube channel and social media if you want to join, I'd be happy to answer any questions about the process.#philadelphiaflyers @grittynhl #nhl #hockey#mascot #characterdesign #characterdesigner #conceptartist #mascotdesign #characterart

I'd like to thank Character Translations Inc. for their hard work bringing my drawing to life, the great Art Directors at the Flyers who made this such an enjoyable process, the man inside the Gritty suit, and of course the fans who have shared their opinions with me (good and bad).

This was my design for the offical Philadelphia Flyers Mascot, Gritty that the team hired me to illustrate.

Check out this series of graphics I created for these Disc Golf discs produced by Discraft for their Halloween catalog.  We took their famous Bee mascot, and drew him in the likeness of famous movie monsters, like Leatherface and Jason from Friday the 13th. This one was based on Michael Myers. We also created a one-color foil version too. Anyone play Disc Golf know of Discraft?#discraft #discgolf #michaelmyers #halloweenart#art #originalartwork #mangastudio #clipstudiopaint #illustration #tshirtdesign #tshirtart #hireanillustrator #freelanceartist #wacomcintiq

Sportsmen friends: would you wear this? This is another apparel design I illustrated for @TakeABreakClothing  that I was really happy with. I wanted to steer away from the fully-rendered painterly style that most fishing apparel artists use and instead make it line-art heavy to give it more contrast. That's challenging, because things can start to look cartoonish real quick if you're not careful.#fishingart #outdoorsart #sportsmen#art #originalartwork #mangastudio #clipstudiopaint #illustration #tshirtdesign #tshirtart #hireanillustrator #freelanceartist #wacomcintiq#appareldesign #tshirtdesign #tshirtartist #screenprintart #dtg

 

This was a really fun illustration I worked on for @TakeABreakClothing recently of a grinning skull fisherman. Take A Break was one of my very first customers over six years ago, and I'm so greatful for clients that have stuck with me from the beginning.#art #fishingart #mangastudio #clipstudiopaint #illustration #tshirtdesign #tshirtart #skullart #freelanceartist #wacomcintiq

Check out this great digital painting by Dave Green @macm0nkey using my Clip Studio Paint brushes. Can I ask a HUGE favor? If you are an artist and have created something using my brushes (available at clipstudiopaintbrushes.com), can you please tag me or send the image to me? I want to post some examples of what others can do with my brushes. So awesome to see what others are creating! http://clipstudiopaintbrushes.com/#clipstudiopaint #mangastudio5 #custombrushes

I don't think I ever posted this - working on inks for my favorite zombie design of the whole year. Zombies flying helicopters. Zombies can fly helicopters. But they suck at landing.#zombieart #zombieartist #undead #horrorart #monsterart#art #mangastudio #clipstudiopaint #illustration #tshirtdesign #tshirtart #hireanillustrator #freelanceartist #wacomcintiq

I found this website interesting, do to it showing the anatomy of the body and different ways definition can be added to your illustration. What other sites are out there that can help improve your drawing skills?https://www.proko.com/#anatomy #figuredrawing #arttips #tutorials #artresources #artschool #arthelp #arttools

This Queen illustration I created for an official Queen pinball machine was for something big that ALMOST happened, but ultimately fell apart. When you've been freelancing for as long as I have, you start to accumulate a big pile of ALMOSTs. It's best not to let those weigh you down - just keep going and making art every day. Focus on the projects you DO get, and don't let the failures overshadow your successes!#queenart #queenband #pinballart #pinballartwork #pinball #pinballmachine #playfield #backglass

I came up with a DIY MacGyver stand for my Wacom Cintiq Pro - I cut a piece of PVC pipe at 30 degree angles. Fits perfectly over the little nubs that are attached to the back of the tablet, and its super sturdy. I even stuffed some old socks in there to create a tension seal. Just need to paint them black!#art #wacomcintiq #illustration #freelanceartist #wacom

Check out this custom-made skateboard deck I get to paint on! Private commission for a customer - it will be painted directly on the board - something Tiki inspired. The board is just beautiful - I almost hate to put my nasty art on it. Can't wait to start!#art #originalartwork #skateboarddeck #acrylicpainting #board #tikiart #skateart #hireanillustrator #freelanceartist

This was a little summer project that Michael and I worked on - Nerf technology has advanced lightyears since I was a kid! #nerf

Here was the Pencil sketch I created on the iPad Pro in Clip Studio Paint of Spawn in a collaboration with the artist @Chogrin . The screen is so bright I can work outside in my backyard - it's great to take a break from the big screen every once in a while and stare at a little screen instead.#art #originalartwork #mangastudio #clipstudiopaint #illustration #spawn #toddmcfarlane #hireanillustrator #freelanceartist #ipadpro

Todd McFarlane's Spawn was such a huge influence on my art style as a kid. So I was really thrilled to be asked by the artist @Chogrin to be a part of a book presented to Todd McFarlane himself to commemorate 25 years of the Hellspawn! This was the first piece of  artwork that I created completely on the iPad Pro, every step. I think I could have done better on the Wacom, there are some parts I'm not happy with. But overall, I really enjoyed working on the tablet and being out on my back porch while working.#art #spawn #mangastudio #clipstudiopaint #illustration #spawnfanart #ipadpro #hireanillustrator #freelanceartist #toddmcfarlane

I found this great resource for learning digital painting, and all the videos are free. I work so much in a line-art driven comic book style, that I've been trying to branch out into Digital painting. Any other good classes I should look at? https://www.ctrlpaint.com/#digitalpainting #arttips #tutorials #artresources #artschool #arthelp #arttools

The drawing event I started with Jeremy Bratton and Melissa Hombrosky called Drink and Draw was featured in our local paper! You know it's a fun event when the writer and photographer picked up pencils and paper and started drawing when they were finished. So happy that people are enjoying this and responding so positively to it. Special thanks to the #CentreDailyTimes #drinkanddraw #drinkanddrawsc #artistsunite
