After Ulysses (w.i.p.)

ULYSSES 31

One of my favorite cartoons of all time… dark, twisted and ahead of it’s time! It’s bizarre stories tripped me out as a kid..

I have wanted to do a rework of one of the main characters from the show “Numinor” for a while now.
He was in suspended animation for almost the entire series and I always wondered what might happen to him after the main story arc…

I have a story idea for him taking place later in his life, when he is forced to turn into a darker, more twisted character with very different ideals and mentality to his native race, the Zotrians.
Having being held captive in isolation for decades by the Gods, now free but forgotten.. he returns in search of his sanity and to eradicate these “Demigods” that held him captive for so long.

The Universe has become even more bizarre and savage, as ever. . hostile to explorers.

Early 3D sculpt.. update soon

Quick Sketch, more soon..

I had a bit of time yesterday to work on this again, did a quick mood painting to just work out some style details for face, more soon!

“THE LEAGUE” Movie Poster!

eOin — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 22:01:00 +0000

*UPDATE! CBR Article here*
A Superhero movie set in the mid 1960′s Chicago? A menacing story with intriguing characters that actually have some dimension?! Sign me up! As its set in the 60′s I referenced posters from that decade and went for more of a raw, restrictive color look. This is the poster design I came up with for client:

Some sketching..

eOin — Sun, 30 May 2010 04:06:22 +0000

I just picked up a new mechanical pencil, finer than I’m used too and its giving me a different feel to mark making, the following concept is the result. I’m doing a bunch of sketching for a world of mine, mainly headgear and some very durable everyday “UV suits”, it’s a very different type of Earth. Pencil’s scanned and colored in Photoshop.
