It was supposed to be a speedpaint but..er...well... So it's basically Nash taking it easy and chilling out with her young dragon companion Geqco while Kai's (a secondary character) playing electric guitar (fully and illegally assembled with industrial leftover material) to earn himself some bonus money when he's not giving underground concerts.

The Historian by emilylorange

A bizzare thing that came out of the sketch-group this week. The idea for him came to me last night. I fear a story on the horizon. Damn. Parts I like, parts I don't... but it really is just a bunch of marker over a sketch Art and character belongs to me.

Cast and the Club, Inked by Scott Ruggels

Sun, 28 Jun 2009 06:41:23 -0000

this is my first attempt using, "Easy Paint Tool SAI". If anyone has any tips, tricks or links for video tutorials please pass then along, This will eventually be colored. Comparing this to inking in Flash, this has more versatility and depth, but Flash is faster, and resolution independent. Inking in Sai, seemed to take as long as it took as it would using steel pens and Higgins Black ink. The original pencils can be seen in my sketch Gallery Uploaded on thsi same date.

Bandolero by Scott Ruggels

Fri, 15 May 2009 17:06:41 -0000

This was a commission from a co-worker who wanted a Bandolero, a member of Zapata's revolutionaries from he turn of the century, defiant to the last at a firing squad, but with a skull for a head. I don't understand the symbology but I did as requested, and I thought it worked out. This was intended as a tatoo. I expect I will do a revision. No problem though, glad for the business. (much better discussing things face to face). Pen and brush inks on Bristol. R U G G E L S / 2 0 0 9

Asheru 63 Flash by Scott Ruggels

Mon, 25 Aug 2008 05:18:11 -0000

Spent this weekend in a working vacation, learning Flash. In a break from the tutorials, I colored a sketch in Flash and found the program to have some pretty good inking tools. This digital ink and coloring took about 4 hours. This is NOT suitable for animation, but give me an idea of hwo to Draw in it. Animation and simple characters come later, but I feel comfortable with the tools, now.
