Hot stuff, Locrian! Your site it bare, though.

The resonator rifles are interesting. Do you start those with just the silhouette, THEN shade? That's an interesting method, gotta remember that. Doing that would free your thoughts when roughing in a new idea. It's easy to feel encumbered by trying to imagine a new idea's final state when beginning, but only concerning yourself with a basic outline at the outset lets you fill in the blanks as you go.

The rifles were done after watching this guy:

The full video is here:
http://store.payloadz.com/details/101559-Video-Educational-Coro-Gun-Demo-Parts-1-2.html
its $23 to download.

I've seen people do it for characters and creatures as well.  Its a technique I haven't experimented with much.  I usually come up with designs by scribbling randomly and making sense of the mess.

Yeah I know my website is bare.  Sigh.  I'm a little too critical of what I put up there.  :yell:

Hey, nice technique! I figured you were blocking in raw forms, then fine-tuning later. I'd seen that done before but honestly forgot about it, and this reminded me.

Speaking of abstract drawing, I hope someone finds this useful - Alchemy, the drawing tool. It's free. Just check it out.

alchemy is an awesome program. I love the fact that there is no undo button.
I made two t shirt designs for christmas presents this year- mirroring may seem cheap, but it's very pleasing for a t shirt:

First simple scene done in anim8or.



For some reason, it wasn't noticing those trees as "objects". Even though they were several objects put on top of each other. So, I couldn't curve them like I wanted to. I dunno why it's a bit blurry, but overall, I'm okay with it.
