Liquidious REX 02 TEST

Knock Knock Cartoons is getting back to its independent roots.  Here is an experiment using foil shot under camera and several digital techniques in after effects.  I hope to have more experiments completed next week.  The independence of Knock Knock Cartoons is back on track.

Working on some new art for Longhair and Doubledome

I hope to be producing a graphic novel of Longhair and Doubledome.  The above art is for the announcement of the Kickstarter campaign to raise money for the endeavor which will launch soon.  Have been working on the story outline and it continues to grow into a very fun project.

Designing and Working

Well over the past few weeks, I have been designing characters and working on, yes, an actual job.  Here are some of the designs I have been doing.  Some fun with elves and imps.

Besides getting ready for the Holidays

I have been working on a digital painting for my niece, her hubby and their little guy, Owen.  An obvious shout out to Game of Thrones.  This painting depicts my grand nephew Owen proclaiming "Winter is Coming".  Work in Progress, hope to finish today.

Longhair and Doubledome

As I continue to look into avenues for these two cavemen, it is always fun to play around in the Photoshop sandbox trying a variety of tools and little tweaks to their imagery.  Here trying a little more contrast and saturation.  Nothing earth shattering, but fun.

Working things out

So for the past few months, I have been working on a bunch of projects.  Six months designing for Fiasco Lab, a small animation project and pitching two shows to PBSkids.  I now find myself at a crossroads, plenty of projects to work on but unsure which ones to move on.  I am taking the day today to just let it filter in, something I haven't done in quite a while.  Letting it come out of the ether, and hoping for an answer.

It is a necessary element of creativity, to meditate, to close one's eyes and see what comes into your head.  What motivation?  What comes forward.  Looking forward to finding out.

Working on Fiasco Lab

Over the past, say six months, Mike Parker (web developer) and yours truly have been working on a design lab and merchandise store, Fiasco lab.  I have been designing nearly every opportunity I can and have been enjoying the challenge of designing engaging T-shirt designs.  Here are some of the more recent attempts.
