Finished goblins went up on the site last week- forgot to mention that.

Starting sketches of a hydra today. Debating whether or not it’s blind. More later.

Here’s the goblins as promised-

Though this is the final pencils rather than a rough sketch. Going to paint it tomorrow most likely- black and white is fun but color is 10x better.

The little goblins at the bottom are my favorite part. I added them in despite them not being in the thumbnail. I think it really makes my ‘Hulking Goblin’ look hulking. Adds to scale blah blah blah. Erasure is fantastic by the way. I should do more work in such a fashion. And graphite dust + paper stump makes for a really nice uneven tone that’ll go perfect beneath some digital paint.

Complete and up on the site now- go have a look! www.monokrome.net
Sketches of goblins coming later today.

Okay I think I need to take a break now. Get up and walk around a bit… but here it is a little more blue.

Progress. No time for more details. Painting.

is underway-

Starting painting her today. This one is going to take some hours to finish though… lots of hours. Good thing we have a 3 day weekend coming up!

Unicorn (or Unicron as R as taken to calling it) is completed and up on the site.  Pencils are finished for the next piece ‘The Prophetess’ and I’m getting underway on ideas for the fourth and fifth. Plans are to finish all five by July- 10 by the end of August (or more) and have an exhibition of all the pieces in the fall.

So far things are going well… speaking with the Chair of Illustration at RMCAD next week, and hopefully I’ll be teaching there in the fall as an adjunct.  I have a lot of concerns, all of which I hope to address with him over dinner.

So here’s to hoping.

No new art to post yet- I need to scan my pencils first- that should come either later today or tomorrow! Check out the main site www.monokrome.net of course for the finished unicorn.  It’s right after the ember soldier.

I almost feel bad for drawing this……

..almost.
Still in progress.

Okay so I finished the Ember Soldier as he has been dubbed, and I am working on my next piece.

Here it is with the colors quickly roughed in. I think this is what I vaguely want to go with. It’s a start.

Stay tuned for more!

Grant is re-building my site this weekend [hooray!] and I should have it up and running by the end of the week/next weekend.

Also, after 6 hours, I’m back where I was before!

Good news all around. Now I rest.
