CARICATURE

I'm no Corbett Vanoni, but I can do the occasional caricature. This is of my fiancee's co-worker who's leaving for somewhere else. She's giving it to him as part of a going-away present.


I think his head's a little pointier, but close enough.


The initial pencil sketch. I then scanned it and finished
the rest of the drawing in Photoshop.



My lone photo ref of the guy.
It's about 3 times smaller than this.

RICKCORTES.COM IS BACK UP!


Okay, there's nothing there yet except for a link to this blog and to my fx reel, but it's up and I'll be working on it some more in the next few days. The update will be a no-nonsense design. I'll let my work do the talking. I'm still looking for material that needs to be scanned and put up. Sit tight!

Here are a few process images from the Freaks Threadless design.


The original piece.


In progress on the update, adding the conjoined fellows and altering the Dog-faced Boy and the Bearded Lady a bit .


The finished line art. Suits for everyone!


Slapping a little color in before the final fill colors.

DEMON ARM GUY

A sketch with some quick Photoshop "ink" of a new character I'm working on. Inspired a bit by the Akira character, Tetsuo.

CRAPPY PHOTOSHOP

Browsing one of Fark's many Photoshop challenges, I came across this one and decided to spend my waking minutes to make this stupidity. Makes me giggle though...cough..
