But it's only a few days 'til I get a week off!  Here's a current projects list I'm doing various visual effects on lately:

Daybreak (series)
Grey's Anatomy (series)
Last Day of Summer (movie of the week)
Dukes of Hazzard 2 (direct-to-dvd feature)
The Line-Up (pilot?)
Dexter (series)
Ghost Whisperer (series)

Enjoy this cold Hellboy and creepy Abe.

Working crazy hours lately (after not really working regularly all summer).  Fifteen hours yesterday.  I thought I'd be more fried today, especially after working all morning, but I feel pretty good.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a couple of drawings.  The first is based on my friend Gary.  The second's from photo ref, mostly for the hair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.rickcortes.com/gary.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.rickcortes.com/gal.jpg"&gt;</content>

I sort of act like I don't like to draw this stuff when in actuality I really like drawing this stuff.  We're building up quite a library of preschool themed artwork.  Maybe some day I'll be able to package it into something I can shill to preschools everywhere.  Because if there's one thing that needs shilling, it's preschools.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, Linds asked for a green bird of some kind (her class is called the Greenbirds).    I figured I'd make the little guy look like a kid.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.rickcortes.com/greenbird.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Drawn with Sharpies, which I suck at.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And these two animals that start with the letter A (which this post is also sponsored by).  I think we're gonna do the whole alphabet.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.rickcortes.com/anteater.gif"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.rickcortes.com/alligator.gif"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;These will be photocopied and colored by the kids.  Sharpie and Staedtler pens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>
