He's a biggin.

Sketching pictures of a Shadow Oni. Hopefully I'll have his story done soon enough.

A-yup. That's it.

Back in my element

Working on a new story with some old concepts.

It'll probably end up being a one and done. While I could make it an epic of sorts, I'm sure, I think I'm going to try to make it pretty simple and straight forward. It'll also be semi high fantasy. Something I'm not overly transversed in, so it'll be a fun challenge to me. It'll also be a challenge to make sure it's not a story someone else has already told before.

Now to try to actually come up with a name for it as well.

With all the power of the sun...

So, here's a new idea that smashed into my brain this morning. It's a sci-fi idea.

Yeah, okay. Todd comes up with a lot of sci-fi ideas. I got it. But this one has a spin to it I haven't tried yet.

Now the problem is making sure it's not just Fear Agent.

Damnit. It's going to turn into Fear Agent.

 Hey, I finished writing the first Chapter!
Time to write another chapter!

Oh yeah, project blog...

I always forget to update this thing. I've been working a lot with Cryptic Happenings, trying to see if I can really get it off the ground.
That means I've been doing a bunch of stuff with character sheets, writing out panels and pages and in general trying to form all the random ideas into a congruent story. It's hard to show any of that stuff on a blog, so hey- here's a logo I'm messing with.
Hopefully more on the horizon soon.

We can all be a little...

So I think I came up with a pretty good name and logo for the "5 senses" project.
I've kind of fallen in love with the name, whom happen to be characters from the story as well. The logo came out pretty good too. I may mess around a little with it, but all and all I'm pretty happy.

Here's some chicken scratch and my thumb

Oh snap! Is Todd actually writing something?!

Here's some creepies.

So, here I am a few hours later with some designs/redesigns of a few of the creatures from Cryptic Happenings. Here we have Flatwoods Monster, Hopkins Goblin, and The Ohio Grassman. A few things of note here:
Flatwoods: I've had a couple designs for this one now, I really tried to accent the alien origins behind the Flatwoods. I like this one. It keeps getting thinner and creepier.
Hopkins: This is actually one of three brothers. The Hopkins Goblin is a cool cryptid it's inspired a lot of things. from Disney characters, Pokémon, and even the Gremlins movies.
Grassman: Just a bust of a character. I'm really looking forward to working more with this guy's story.

Mothman redesign

Working on giving a new look to one of the main characters of "Cryptic Happenings". This is, of course, Harvey the Mothman. (his original design here). I decided to make his legs a little shorter and stubbier, seeing as he doesn't really run often.
Going to try to maybe design/redesign a few of the other characters that go along with this story as well. Heck, maybe I'll even write a little more of it.

Getting that old brain stew stiring again

For the first post on this blog, I thought I'd do a little revisiting to a story/comic/designs from a little while ago.
Bill and I did some drawing exercises and the assignment for one was to do character concepts based off the 5 senses.
I liked my concepts enough that I started basing a sci-fi kind of world around them, along with a hero's journey story concept.
For the original concept art I did for them, lookie here: "Us 5 Senses"

I really like these guys and plan on doing a bit more with them.
