United colors of Gremlins

For a while I 've been thinking about doing a lot of Gremlins in all kinds of kooky shapes and colors. I think I've spent about 3 weekends trying to come out with crazy looking characters but I'm sad to say I have just not ben inspired lately, so I decided to do a few color variations so I can use them on the characters when they're done.

I posted this one on my Facebook and a fellow Graphic Designer gave me a hard time for using the word "Yellow-ish", so I decided to leave it exactly like that--I think he should be thankful I didn't call the one on the top right corner "Orangey". 

Spacin' out

For this piece, I wanted to create a character from a 60's style, fictitious Saturday morning cartoon show. Lordo is the second in command of an explorer spaceship; he has the head of a mushroom -and smells like one, too. Lordo is the brains of a crew that hardly ever follows his instructions,

This webcomic project has been dormant for quite a while but I hope to go back to it soon.

At the movies...

I got a kick out of this Tropic Thunder caricature. I have to admit I have not seen the movie yet but I'm a big fan of Robert Downey Junior and from the trailers I've seen, I'm sure he did one heck of a job in this movie.

I think the Dark Knight was a great film and was very excited when HD Review asked me to do this spot illustration for them. I think I spent more time looking for bats online than anything else. 

Good times, good times...

Backgrounds

Although I don't usually advertise my background design skills, I thought I'd do it this time around since I've recently worked on more than a few.
Thank you, City Rythm Creative for the opportunity. See you guys real soon!

Mutant Venus Flytrap

As a monster-loving child growing up in the 80's, I found Little Shop of Horrors a wonderful source of inspiration. It's been a long time and I still do. There were so many things about that movie that made an impression in my work. The music, the characters (who can forget Steve Martin's interpretation of "Dentist!"?) and of course, good ol' Audrey II.
