Fe- Character Design

Chief's Experiment Log

Experiment name
Project Fe- (pronounced Fee-line) - (Artificial Intelligence)
Robotic feline supercomputer capable of calculation, learning and decision making

Project escaped before completion leading to experiment imperfections -
- no 'purpose' programming
- personality glitches still present
- lack of water proofing (phobia programming installed)

- Sarcastic
- lacks fear of danger and respect for superiors 
- tail spikes can be aimed and detached then retrieved using magnets in tail
- metal armour is strong but does not cover all wiring and hydraulics, leading to vulnerability
- severe phobia of water due to installed safe-guarding programming

quite happy with how it turned out even if it is a bit old now
Click to see speedpaint
drawing of Fe- done 14/10/13
happy with it apart from the stiff hind legs, next time I will try to make the segments on her belly look more rounded instead of flat
Fe- and Aquarius at halloween, although Aquarius isn't too keen on Fe-'s costume choice why would you go in only one costume when you can have two? 
I think Aquarius is going as himself xD

Dr Cockroach Sketches

Sketches and 'sketchpaint' of Dr Cockroach from the Dreamworks film, Monster vs Aliens, really love this character... and not just because he's voiced by Hugh Laurie!!!
the top left sketch is based on the scene in ''mutant pumpkins' where the young dr's sweets are stolen, this brought a tear to my eye with both the facial expression (that animator is a genius!) and the sound of a grown man cry 'my swirly pop!!!'

enjoy!

'Megamind' Sketches

Sketches of Minion and Megamind from the Dreamworks film, I really love how megamind turned out, minion still needs some work though, especially on the eyebrows xD

enjoy!! <3

Jaxon - Character Design Sketches

First up, sketches of a T-rex character, Jaxon 
I was looking at how proportions could be altered to help with characterisation, hence the huge feet (and huge head in the right hand picture xD)

enjoy~ :3

Okay it's about time I start up a blog so that I have somewhere to keep track of my art and hopefully watch it improve, I'm new to this so I'll probably take some time to set this up and make it pretty (maybe a bit too much time) and then start uploading sketches, finished pieces, life drawings and animation as well as my hobby crafts of pyrography and clay work :3
