New Feature for Powerpets

So the last few days I've been working hard with one of the owners of Powerpets (Tony) who is also the programmer for the site. We're working on a totally new feature and it's coming along so nicely! It seriously looks so great I'm so proud of it :)

While I can't show any sneak peeks yet, I can say it has to do with the current plot, and it's kind of huge :D

On another note, the other day I did a livestream, and took random requests from the 7 people who showed up (I was so psyched to have so many people show up!)

I ended up drawing toothless & puss and boots!

I want to try and do a weekly livestream, it was so much fun, and a great challenge taking random characters I've never drawn before, spur of the moment, no practice, and trying to draw them with a live audience watching! Talk about pressure! If I start a weekly livestream, I'll post here about it and what time it is.

Powerpets & Writing

While I've been working hard on the new Powerpets plot, something that is a little less known about me is I also love to write. I have 2 novels I have started, and a small collection of short stories, and I'm going to start working toward becoming a published Author. I've been looking specifically for a magazine that may publish one of my best short stories (titled "Kaylee", and "Arctic Whispers") with no luck, so I will start writing some stories targeted at specific magazines while continuing to work on my novels.

Meanwhile, the work I've been doing for powerpets has been fun. It turns out there are Pirates attacking the cities of Powerpets! Because of this, the October/Halloween giftpack has been themed toward the pets & characters dressing up as pirates.
Here are some of the pirate dressed pets. There are 80 total!

You can view them all here.

The characters were also dressed up.

Digital Painting Practice

My practice digital painting I've been working on, on and off, for the last few days, it's actually got a lot more than this, but the face is the most fully rendered ;) So I'm only showing that as per my 'fear of people seeing my incomplete work' syndrome lol My bosses see incomplete work all the time, and quick sketches and that doesn't ever bug me! So I wonder why personal stuff does?

The model in this is Courtney Simonds http://www.reddpheonix.com/ :) I'll credit the exact picture when I post the fully finished work. Although it is looking farther and farther from what that photo looks like!

Here is another WIP :) Btw she isn't nekkid, she's wearing a corset-type top, with no straps, so it only looks like she is nekkid right now but she's totally decent!

Captain Tobias Pain

Character Design/Illustration for Powerpets, this is Captain Tobias Pain and his Skeleton Bird!

Bubble Bounce

This is a game I made for Powerpets.com. This is the version I made exclusively (programming, art, and animation). You can play the full version (with updated programming by Tony from Powerpets) on Powerpets.com it has levels and some features that surpass my programming skills :)
