Yet Another Dwarf Painting



This piece was a lot of fun, but i didnt do enough pre-planning and thats why the values are jacked. it was originally just a dwarf drawing that i tried to turn into an illustration that makes sense. It needs alot more work, but i feel like moving on and learning some new things. Enough excuse making, hope you enjoy and critiques are always welcome. Thanks to Rob, Kurt and Tyler for all your suggestions

African Dwarf



This was a really fun piece that i worked on during my lunches for a week or two. He's the king of An African Tribe of Dwarves. His beard comes down and out through the armor of his breastplate, because in dwarven culture, the beard is the sign of your prestige. he is also wearing hyena pelts because Hyenas are one of the few natural enemies of the lion besides man. His main weapons are the claws of an ancient giant lion that he starps to his hands.

Some Quick Head Doodles


These were some fun head doodles to warm up. They were all around 45 min to an hour, im really trying to focus on staying loose and letting fewer strokes do more work (but its really hard!) Any resemblances to real people living or dead is purely coincidence! Jk, anyways thanks for lookin.

Has Anyone Seen My Arm?




This was a really fun piece to do, it started out as a lunch sketch. He is an Irish Dwarf who is a retired warrior and is trying to keep his nose out of trouble by being a farmer, but those pesky goblins just wont stay off his land. Anyway, thanks to Tyler for the advice on values! Critiques are always welcome. Oh, and sorry for the crazy long absence!

Cameron the Cat Hunter

In a world without adults, children have had to fend for themselves. Their main source of food: ...... Cats! These are truly barbaric times and no feline is safe with "Cameron the Cat Hunter" on the prowl!

This is a fun little painting I wanted to do of my son Cameron. He is the most destructive little boy on earth! ( But i still love him to death!) The version on the right just has some quick color overlays, to see what could happen. Critiques are always welcome.
