Hello fellow bloggers! Its been along time since I've added anything on here. A lot has been going on and alot hasn't been going on at the same time. Life does that sometimes. Well here is something to snack on for a few.

The Evolution of Luke Cage

2009-09-16T06:22:00.001-07:00

Luke Cage, born Carl Lucas and also called Power Man, is a fictional superhero appearing in comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Archie Goodwin and artist John Romita, Sr., he first appeared in Luke Cage, Hero for Hire #1 (June 1972).

2009-08-06T11:32:00.000-07:00

Here is this weeks animated trailer or short. Hope you guys like it.
The plotline here: A serious accident requires a driver to have his heart replaced with the engine of his own racing car. I love the style of the show. Reminds me of FLCL.

Something old

2009-07-20T06:33:00.000-07:00

This is a old pic I did about a year or 2 ago. Can't remember when. I was just cleaning out folders on my hard drive and came across this.

Grouchy Smurf has had enough

2009-06-01T08:20:00.001-07:00

Here is a 80's throw back. I always wondered as a kid why Grouchy Smurf never just snapped and beat the hell out of Jokey Smurf for all the bombs and pies that he put in his face. Well this images is from the day that Grouchy just said the hell with it and went all out.

Wolverine

2009-05-07T14:20:00.001-07:00

Since the movie is out now I thought I'd do a drawing of one of my favorite characters of all time growing up. Not that Hollywood version. I hate that watered down clown. The real deal baby!

woman warrior

2009-05-01T11:36:00.000-07:00

A woman warrior is a role of interest to historians and scholars of anthropology and feminism.

The portrayal of women in literature and popular culture as warriors has been studied in literary, film, feminist and cultural studies. In fictional works, the character type often refers to a strong female personality, determined in pursuit of her goals and often eager to take on typical "man's work" like fighting wars or performing manual labour to accomplish those goals. This type of character has become a stock character, and stands in contrast to the "damsel in distress" archetype . When of a royal background, a woman warrior may be called a warrior princess.

Secret Agent

2009-04-28T05:52:00.001-07:00

Here is a image I did for another art blog. The subject was Secret Agent and whats better than a sexy female agent in leather lol!

Apache Cafe sketches

2009-04-06T10:56:00.001-07:00

Here are a few sketches from my sketchbook that I did at Apache Cafe over the last few weeks. I'll try and start posting these more often when I can remember to.

Life model drawing cleaned up.

2009-02-25T10:39:00.000-08:00

Here is a drawing based off a model from Apache Cafe that I've been going to the past few weeks now. Let me know what you think and if you're in Atlanta and free on Monday's come on out and meet me.

Street Fighter 4 is Out

2009-02-20T10:57:00.001-08:00

Well I did a post once before about Street fighter 4. Well the game came out this week and it looks great. Here is a pic i drew of one of my all time favorite characters from Street Fighter.

UPDATE about the movie. Found a few movie reviews:If at first you don't succeed ... fail, fail again. That must have been the mantra during filming of Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, staring Canadian sweetheart Kristin Kreuk. Can anyone even feign surprise that the latest Street Fighter flick is a train wreck? It isn't easy following up a classic, and by that we of course mean Street Fighter: The Movie, staring the Muscles from Brussels, Jean-Claude Van Damme. Yes, we said classic. It was one of the greatest unintentional comedies of our generation.

* AMCtv.com: "I much prefer the flamboyant badness of the '94 flick to the attractive, even-keeled mediocrity of this one. Jean-Claude Van Damme's stock just rose considerably."
* WJFK-FM (CBS Radio) (-5/5): "As a fan of the video game series, I can honestly say that this is hands down one of the worst films I have ever seen. Chris Klein is so bad that he made the movie a comedy."
* IGN Movies (1.5/5): "It may not be as gaudy or goofy as its predecessor, but it's far more boring and banal. It's a videogame adaptation that loses sight of what made the game popular to begin with: it was fun."

Work It!!!

2009-02-11T08:14:00.000-08:00

Me. Myself and I

2009-02-09T10:40:00.001-08:00

In the history of me drawing I've never drawn a pic of myself. I guess I've always felt I don't do great likenesses so I stay away from trying to do portraits. Well here is the first that I did last week when I was bored.

Strike a Pose

2009-01-28T06:22:00.000-08:00

Something quick I did this week while waiting on a new project to start up. If you're good at coloring and you want to give the black and white version a go at it go for it. When you finish hit me up and I'll post it on the blog for others to see what it came out like.

The MC

2009-01-23T10:30:00.000-08:00

I think I'm going to start animating my own game soon. This is the main character give or take. I may change him up some. But it'll be a side scrolling beat em up game. Kinda like Double Dragon was back in the day.

Biggie is the G.O.A.T.

2009-01-21T12:52:00.000-08:00

I went and saw the Biggie movie this past weekend. It was pretty good. If you like 8 mile and Ray kind of music movies then it was good for what it was. I'm a big B.I.G fan. I remember seeing him live back at Freak Nik '94 before anyone really knew who he was. He only had the Party and Bullshit single out at the time on the Who's the Man soundtrack plus 88.5 back then use to play that song all the time here in Atlanta. We were robbed of a great artist when we lost B.I.G.

Street Fighter 4

2009-01-14T10:29:00.000-08:00

With the Street Fighter 4 game about to to come out I got a little hyped and knocked this out at lunch.

Games from 2008

2009-01-05T13:10:00.001-08:00

Happy new Year. Just thought I'd repost the links to the games that I worked on over the past year. I didn't get as many done this past year as i would have like since Bounty Hunters took up most of my year and may end up taking up most of this year if the update to the game goes like planed.

First up is Batman:dynamic double team

Next up is secretsaturdays code of the cryptids

Last there was ben10 bounty hunters

Delgo Has One of Worst Openings in the History of Cinema

2008-12-16T06:41:00.001-08:00

The CG animated feature Delgo opened last weekend and nobody went to see it. According to Box Office Mojo, Delgo had the worst opening ever for a film that opened in more than 2,000 theaters earning just $511,290 or $237 per theater. Moments like this really make one pause and reflect. What is the world coming to when an animated film with the voices of Freddie Prinze Jr., Jennifer Love Hewitt, Chris Kattan, Anne Bancroft, Eric Idle, Val Kilmer, Lou Gossett Jr, Malcolm McDowell, Michael Clarke Duncan, Burt Reynolds and Kelly Ripa isn’t a box office blockbuster? A story that makes sense and visuals that don’t make you want to heave are quaint touches, but the filmmakers behind Delgo understood where it really counted: celebrity voice actors. They hired every B- and C-list actor this side of Dancing With the Stars and somehow still failed. You know the recession is affecting Americans deeply when they no longer want to see Chris Kattan and Kelly Ripa voicing their CG characters.

The Princess and the Frog Trailer

2008-12-15T08:03:00.000-08:00

Disney has decided to renew with its original roots: a traditional 2D animated movie based upon the classic fairy tale The Frog Princess is indeed under production. The film is titled the Princess and the Frog.

The animated movie is directed by John Musker and Ron Clements, directors of The Little Mermaid and Aladdin. Dreamgirls star Anika Noni Rose is lending her voice to the lead character, Tiana. The Princess and The Frog is slated for a release on Christmas 2009.

Dance sketch

2008-10-17T08:09:00.000-07:00

Just at work and needed to loosing up some before i got started on some new concept designs for a project that I'm working on. So I did this in like 5 min or so. I was pumping the old Salt and Pepa song "Shake your thang" while doing this drawing. Classic song by the way.

Cool animated video I found online

Ben 10 Bounty Hunters starts this Monday

2008-08-15T07:33:00.000-07:00

Clone wars movie

2008-08-15T07:28:00.000-07:00

Hmmm I saw the movie about a week or so ago at work. At first i thought since the movie was animated and in 3d they'd do some over the top stuff that they couldn't do in the other movies. Boy was I wrong. Then I thought maybe they'd flush out the story a little more. Dang I was wrong again. This movie was worthless. Just something to cash in on star wars name. No cool fights, no cool battle scenes, nothing that made people say whooooooooa during the movie. Everybody seemed to leave just empty. I was looking for more and walked away with nothing. I'd just say wait until its on dvd or when Cartoon Network shows it on tv. Its not worth the money. Luckily I saw it for free and i still wanted my money back.

Ma$e Mixtape art

2008-04-10T20:18:00.000-07:00

Awhile back I got contacted by someone on myspace that said they were Mases assistant and that he was working on a new mix-tape. This was back when Mase was suppose to be with G-unit i believe. And that they wanted me to do a cover for his mix-tape. Of course i didn't want to do it since rappers never want to pay. they think they should get it for free or a hook up. Well my wife was going crazy and telling me to do it. So I said i would do it. Well long story short I was working on it and i asked for half up front once they saw the sketches that I did and they said they liked them. Well ol lord asking for money turned into hell and they got all hot because I asked for half. Half was really cheap by the way. Just a few 100. and the other half after i finished and i would send over the files. Well i never heard back from them once i asked for my money. lol! Rappers suck and I'll never work with one again.

Men In Black animated

2008-04-08T08:04:00.000-07:00

Oh man I forgot all about Men In Black the cartoon. This was a pretty good cartoon for its time to be something that was based off a Movie. They need to bring this back lol!

Men in Black: The Series (informally MIB: The Series) was an animated television series that aired on the Kids' WB for four seasons from 1997 through 2001. Reruns ran briefly on Nickelodeon's SLAM! block in 2002. It was also on Canada's YTV.
The show featured characters from 1997's science fiction film Men in Black, which was based on the comic book series The Men in Black by Lowell Cunningham, originally published by Aircel Comics.
MIB: The Series was made by Adelaide Productions Inc. as a half-hour series airing on Saturday mornings originally and then moving to weekdays.

Differences Animation short

2008-03-31T12:23:00.000-07:00

From the director of "READ A BOOK", Tyree Dillihay presents "DIFFERENCES"...the first in a series of shorts where children from different races and cultures learn more about one another...in a very innocent way.

This film was conceptualized over a year ago, but, after all the controversy READ A BOOK caused, I figured it'd be best I show people another side of my storytelling while still keeping it provocative.

If you like what you see...show support by simply passing the link on and let's get more animated content out that actually makes people THINK.

Produced by Six Point Harness Studios

Stay Tuned for much more to come...

Waynehead Cartoon Flashback

2008-03-03T07:48:00.000-08:00

"Waynehead, Waynehead, The party's jut begun. Waynehead, Waynehead, The 411 for fun…"

Inspired by the childhood of film/TV actor Damon Wayans, Waynehead proved that physical and financial challenges were no match for a healthy imagination and a smooth attitude. Damey Wayne was the star's 10-year-old alter ego, complete with a few autobiographical touches: Both Damon and Damey were born with a "club" foot, which slowed down their bodies but had no effect on their highly creative minds. The "Waynehead" nickname was another true-life note, given to Damey and his brothers because of their home-sheared hairdos.

In the cartoon, Damey and family lived in lower Manhattan, where the boy went through the usual ups and downs of childhood. The lack of money in the Wayne household made for a few extra challenges, but Damey compensated, as always, with creativity. If he wanted a toy, he built one from the neighborhood junk. The boy also honed his mechanical skills by taking apart anything he could get his hands on, though putting it back together was another matter. Through it all, Damey's family and friends—Monique, Shavonne, Toof, Blue, three-legged dog Tripod and others—always stuck together.

The cartoon was a family affair all around, with Wayans siblings Kim, Shawn and Marlon all providing voices. With its warm humor and message of accepting those who are different, Waynehead earned high praise, but it wasn't enough to save the show from cancellation after a single season

Proud Family Cartoon Flashback

2008-02-12T12:03:00.000-08:00

The Proud Family was created by Bruce W. Smith and was produced by his studio, Jambalaya Studios. Originally piloted for Nickelodeon [1], it was eventually picked up by the Disney Channel in 2001. Many of the later episodes of The Proud Family were produced using Macromedia Flash. LaCienega and Sunset Boulavardez are puns for La Cienega Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard, actual streets in Los Angeles and the school that Penny Proud and her friends go to is named for auto racing driver Willy T. Ribbs, who was the first African American to qualify for the Indianapolis 500. (Coincidentally, the patriarch of the Boulevardez family is named Felix, who is Oscar Proud's neighbor and best friend. This is a pun to Felix and Oscar of The Odd Couple.) There was also a recurring character named Wizard Kelly, a former professional athlete (whose face was never seen). Because he owned every sports/entertainment venue in the city, his name appeared on everything (pun to Magic Johnson). It was first broadcast in the United States on The Disney Channel on September 15, 2001, and now also airs on Toon Disney. It has also been broadcast on The Family Channel in Canada.

Cartoon Flashback is back!!!

2008-01-30T08:20:00.000-08:00

I use to post old cartoons that I grew up on. So I thought I'd get back into it. Here is a clip form one of my favorites The Jackson 5 cartoon. The Jackson 5ive was a Saturday morning cartoon produced by Rankin/Bass from 1971 to 1973, based upon the careers of the popular Motown recording group The Jackson 5. The series was animated mainly in London at the studios of Halas and Batchelor, and some animation done at Estudios Moro, Barcelona Spain. The director was Spanish-American Robert Balser.

So fresh, and so clean!

2008-01-25T07:08:00.000-08:00

I decided to clean up a Naruto sketch I posted awhile back and here is the final version.

Happy New Year

2008-01-04T12:48:00.000-08:00

2008! Already? Wow! Since its a new year that means a new year of predictions for the year that I won't be able keep. Well, my first New Year's resolution is to redo my main website that is falling apart and hasn't been touched in over 2 or more years since I started the Blog. So What I may end up doing it removing all the art off this here blog and putting it on my website and starting this over with just day to day doodles. Nothing finished. I say that now and a year from now I'll be looking back at this post. My second New Year's resolution is to go ahead and get my artbook printed and out to the 5 people that will pay for one. My third New Year's resolution is to get back on my diet ASAP. I've been slack really slack. The cold weather hasn't helped any either. Well I think thats about it for now. If I think of anything else I'll edit this and post more.. lol! Have a great 2008!

Lebron James

2007-11-28T20:08:00.000-08:00

Clyde, Rick Barry, and Pistol Pete,
Now these players, could never be beat,
Isiah, and Iceman too,
Just give 'em the ball, and then you talk up too,
Dantley and Wilkins are on the scene,
And Ralph Sampson is really mean,
Bill Russell didn't take no junk,
and Darryl Dawkins got a monster dunk,
Tell me, were you in the joint?,
The night Wilt scored 100 points,
Or when Celtics won titles back-to-back,
And didn't give nobody, no kind of slack,
Or when Dr. J shook the whole damn team,
With moves that came right out of a dream,
Or when, Willis Reed stood so tall,
Playing D with desire, it's Basketball

ok that's old skool kurtis blowfot ya!

G.I Joe art contest

2007-11-28T12:47:00.001-08:00

My friend Sax is having a little G.I. Joe contest for all you fans + artist out there. this is what he has to say about the contest.
YO JOE! I'm back on the throwbacks with a vengance. As a kid I collected G.I.Joe figures and indulged in the 80's cartoon. One of the most remembered characters for me was Destro. Looking back now as an adult, he looks kinda pimpish, so I had to throw the Barroness in this pic. For the backdrop, I tried to replicate the toy packaging. I drew the characters on animation paper, scanned them in, then colored it all in photoshop. NOW IT"S YOUR TURN TO DRAW YOUR FAVORITE JOE! BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF THE YEAR DRAW YOUR VERSION OF YOUR FAVORITE JOE ( or Joes) AND SUBMIT IT FOR A PRIZE! CONTEST DETAILS WILL BE POSTED SOON. START SKETCHING NOW BECAUSE "KNOWING IS HALF THE BATTLE!" You can get more info or check out more of his art over at his page. Just click the title to go to it.

Alien designs

2007-11-19T11:46:00.000-08:00

What have I been doing, you ask? Well at work I'm working on a new Ben 10 game that is going to be a multiplayer game. So i think its going to allow up to 8 people to play at once. Its a shooter game and I had to design some new aliens to be in the game that you can play as. Well here are a few designs that I came up with. The first one I did they thought was too cartoony. But so is the show that I'm doing it for so that made no sense to me. But whatever, I came up with 3 more for them to choose from. They ended up picking the last one with the wanna be Spiderman mask that i came up with.

Trick or Treat!!!!

2007-11-01T08:07:00.000-07:00

I took these last night. Laila got all dressed up for daycare and then later that night our church rented out the skating ring and laila had a ball. I'll have to convert the video of her dancing on the floor. Its classic.

Lets post some art!!!!!

2007-10-08T12:39:00.001-07:00

This is a concept image I was working on for the cover of my sketchbook that I've been talking about doing forever and just haven't gotten to it yet. Now that I look at it again I don't like the layout and the name of the book. So I'll redo it up and come up with something else that is hot. The second one is something old thats on my website that I never posted anywhere else.

2007-08-27T08:29:00.001-07:00

My granny pasted away last week and we put her to rest this weekend. I'm just glad she's not in anymore pain and can rest now. She's been sick for the last year or so and I didn't like seeing her in so much pain. My uncle sent me this picture of her this morning on my cel phone and I thought I'd post it.

Trying to get the "Eye of the Tiger" back!!

2007-08-27T08:25:00.000-07:00

I thought it was about time to post something new. I did this last thursday while surfing the net at lunch. I've just been trying to get the drawing bug back. I've been playing too much 360 and PS3 as of late and not drawing that much anymore. Time to change all of that.

Tyme fo sum action!

2007-08-09T13:50:00.000-07:00

When you get bored and you don't have your box 360 to play because the damn cheap thing got the red rings of death. lol! Ok i did this the other day (yesterday) at lunch. I need to dig up some old kung fu movies to watch. So if you have a list of must have Kung Fu movies hit me up and let me know what to try and get.

Sorry I haven't posted anything in a few weeks. Just been super crazy with work and what not and coming back home and playing with Laila. How come she's still spinning like a top and I'm about passed out. Seems like those little legs would get tired sometime. lol! Here are two drawings for you to chew on.

Laila and her horse!!!

2007-07-10T14:00:00.000-07:00

Today is Laila Day. I miss my lil midget. She's out in TX this week with her mom visiting family that she's never seen before. So I'm hoping she doesn't come back acting crazy and jumping off walls. lol! Juanita says she's walking pretty good since she left so that means I have to get all the cabinets locked up before she gets back. So much to do. lol!

Sketch

2007-07-03T09:01:00.000-07:00

Read a Book!

2007-06-21T13:01:00.000-07:00

Ok the animation and the designs on this are pretty cool in my book. Just the content I got a issue with. Why is everything on BET made to make Black folks look so ignorant and dumb?

sketchbook image

2007-06-12T11:59:00.000-07:00

This is a image from my sketchbook that I did at lunch today while sitting outside. I just decided to redraw that image form a earlier sketch to see if I could make it better the second time around.

Inspiration part 2

2007-06-05T10:58:00.000-07:00

Hip hop is so out of control these days. Everything is coon music to me right now. Its all about how dumb can I look and sound. How many times can I show my teeth in my video. Hip hop is dead. There are a few people doing it right but for the most part its on life support. This is one of my inspirations that I listen to when I'm doing my artwork. I have nothing but old school classic stuff on my itunes. What are you pumpin when you work? Let me know.

Somethin' somethin'

2007-06-04T08:44:00.001-07:00

Thought I'd post some quick doodles I did in my sketchbook this weekend. Nothing to jump up and down about just some 5 and 10 min doodles.

Inspiration

2007-05-31T11:10:00.000-07:00

I remember when this video came out. I was doing my art thing as a youngster and didn't think I'd be able to do anything with it until I saw this. The animation isn't that great now that I look at it again after all these years but it got my blood rushing when I first saw it. I knew I wanted to animate some of my artwork. Which I did in college. I animated a video to the Slick Rick, Mona Lisa track. I wish I still had that wack animated video lol! ok enough about me on to the video flash back.

Work work work...artbook still coming

2007-05-30T10:43:00.000-07:00

Well as you can see I haven't posted much new art as of late. Sorry about that. My moms passed last month and now my granny is on life support with no brain activity at all. So i havent really had time or the heart to do anything new really. I am still working on my artbook. Just trying to find a good printer. Thinking of printing about 100 books at like 50 pages hardcover if I can get a good price. So if you know of any good printers that do that stuff let me know.

Quick sketch

2007-05-29T09:05:00.000-07:00

Here is a quickie I did last week while work was slow.

My lil Laila is growing up

2007-05-21T08:39:00.000-07:00

The last few weeks Laila has decided that she wants to start getting up on her own and standing. She just begain crawling about 2 weeks ago also. so she's starting both at the same time. Noe she's all over the house. I have to go buy a few gates for the house to keep her from going to the stairs.

Unused Chris Paul Toy design

2007-05-17T14:16:00.000-07:00

Awhile back I did some pre-Toy designs for the N.O.Hornets that went no where fast. I did a few different versions of Chris Paul. One with his gear and one with just tights and a wife beater on that would go under the outfits since they wante dto do real cloth for the uniforms. Wish this would have gone forward. They decided to play it safe and do some booble heads instead.
