Alright, guys. Barring any unforeseen changes, these are all six images of my Super Jones series. Hope you enjoy seeing his journey play out!

Street Fathers

So, instead of finishing up Super Jones stuff last night after class, I made this...



It could use some texture, but I haven't gotten very good at pixel shading just yet. If you don't get the reference, it's Guile's win screen from Street Fighter.



Yes. As you can see from the clip, he even says it to women. "Go home and be a housewife" just doesn't sound as cool.

More calendar pages; Hack/Sprite

Well, here are two more pages for my 12-month 16-bit calendar, SUPER JONES. I decided to make the pixels bigger starting with these, and I'm revamping the first page I did to be on par with them, so look forward to that! Or don't. It won't hurt my feelings.

Anyway, these pages depict a typical brawling stage (which most of the months will be) and a motorcycling mini-game.



The guy shooting fire is the game's main villain, Mirror Jones. Check out this great fanart Jordan Bickimer did of him!

Also, I felt like doing something else just for fun and to practice spriting, so here are sprite renditions of Cassie Hack and Vlad, the heroes from one of my favorite comics, Hack/Slash. The new issue just came out today, so I've had it on the mind. Need to go pick it up now!

Addys poster

I usually don't post assignments from non-Illustration classes here, but this has an illustration in it, so I'm counting it. Well, technically it's traced from a photo, but it still counts.

It's my Grunge-style Addys poster featuring a sad Emily Haines. Despite being a Typography assignment, I'm much more pleased with the illustration than the type. xD


And here's my reference...

2011 Calendar, December page

Totally forgot to post this last Friday! It's the first finished page of my video game calendar. For whatever reason, I started with the ending. This is the final boss fight, for December.


It could use revision. I think the pixels need to be bigger, and the "fingers" on SnowBoss's left branch could look better. I'm also going to make that fireball look better, as per Jordan's suggestions. Still not entirely used to this pixel stuff, but I'll catch on. Expect a revised version at the end of the project.
