Character Design: EASTSIDE LARRY and the SONS of ISHTAR

Character designs for a band/comic idea. Story idea and characters from the mind of Sean P. McGary.

Halloween Show Flyer

This is a poster design for an upcoming Halloween show at the earth house, downtown Indianapolis. My friend Eastside Larry is throwing a ball and you are all invited. It will be a grand event for anybody who likes rock and or roll and doesn't mind a little Halloween freaky deaky...which is everybody.

Early Concepts for television project

I was recently contracted to do a bit of concept work for a film and video production company out of LA called Blackfoot. They needed images of a rocket and a launch pad to be used for a presentation to pitch a new TV show. I can't go into much detail at this point...but it was well received at the pitch meeting and is progressing into script and pilot stage!

Images were all created digitally as vector models, and then enhanced through photoshop. The rockets were done as a size comparison with a B-1 bomber. The composite is a lighting test I put together quickly. It combines the launch pad I created with an image supplied by Ryan Gibson at Blackfoot who later put the bits together into his trailer-like presentation. I'll try to post some vid caps of the piece as soon as I can.

Laserable choppers

Second attempt at producing a chopper in clear acrylic. This one offered a whole host of issues, but turned out like I'd hoped. It is based on the stealth model below (Top image-black bike) with a few minor alterations. Camera broke, so the image is the best I could do at this point...my apologies.

I have been experimenting with a laser engraving machine lately and creating pieces in acrylic. I came up with these chopper designs to use as a basis for creating 3D models in plastic. First one is cut and assembled. I am also working on a scale model of Bertha the spaceship from one of my comics. I will have some photos posted when it is a little closer to finished...

Meridian Road Poster - Season One

Nearly final illustration for a Meridian Road promotional poster.

I got a burst of productivity and worked on this over the last two days.

Poster includes the five main characters with villains from the first season.

B&B's neighborhood from a bird's eye.

Save The Horses: Children's Book

For the past several months I have been working with a writer named Michael Chapa to illustrate a children's book he's written called "Save the Horses". It's a fun little story about two kids who go on a cross country trek to save their beloved horse, Lovie. I've had a blast creating these images and the project has been challenging and rewarding. We are near completion! Just a few more images. The cover concept image was done in ink, marker, and colored pencil...the interior art is all done in pencil.

Graphic Design: Event Logo

An abandoned logo idea for an event in St. Petersburg called Hot Wheels and High Heels. This was an attempt at replicating a specific look the client provided. I created it in Illustrator as a vector file but tried to get an airbrushed feel. Ultimately I thought it turned out OK, but was just too elaborate and flashy for the event. We settled on a much more reserved  and elegant approach. Rightly so.
