So I did a spoof on the old Godzilla poster... I thought it was fun :D
The text was all Babelfished, so it's probably really poorly translated but that's fine by me.

I've been missing

Here's a smattering of stuff I've been working on. I haven't updated this bad boy in a year... That's sort of sad. I've been really busy with school right now, so I apologize to all two of the people that sometimes check this.


This is a character from this idea I have for a fighting game. I call her Fia, she's sort of a Bruce Lee analogue in terms of her fighting style. MisterNefarious, by the way, is me.

That's me! And the gang! Zoinks! Daphne wants me.
An environment concept I did. I hope it's self explanatory enough, but I dunno...

Check my NefWorks blog at the end of the week, it will be my new online portfolio. This will be less formal. Less professional. I will swear here.

Fuck.

Julio Work

Julio and Sanchito at the bar. This assignment was used to illustrate the illusion of space. The bar and bottles form a foreground, assisted by the cut out of the bar, Julio in the middle ground and Sanchito in the background. Done in Copic water proof pen on Bristol Vellum.

Julio fighting Jose. Movement through repetition of figure. There is a fight unfolding in the background leading up to the foreground which is the present.

Movie poster imagining that Julio's story was a Mexican horror film.

Visual Response to Music

An assignment for color theory. We were asked to take a song and make a visual response to it. This assignment was very open ended.

I elected to do the song Fluorescent Adolescent by the Arctic Monkeys.

The song is about a girl who has left behind a promiscuous and exciting past for a drab and bleak existence. I ran into some challenges when completing the background and wound up going for an entirely orange background, instead of my original concept.. I think it contrasts nicely with the brown and creates an analogous color scheme with the pinks and yellows.

The lightning bolts, highlights and roses in her hair, as well as the low backed dress are used to symbolize the exciting and seductive life she has left behind her as it's fading away.

Gouache watercolor and sharpie on watercolor paper. Measurements are roughly 10 by 12 or something like that.
Image is not downloadable, as this is a photo of the work. It is also for sale. Should you want to buy it, I will more finely trim the edges (They are a little crooked)
