Avans

Another character design for the same project. The Avans are the bird-like race in the rough sketch above.

Below is the finished version of the Spartans.

Spartan warrior design

I've been designing a few characters for a friend's project and I recently began finalizing some of them. Here's the design for a Spartan, roughed out in Flash. I'll refine the lines and add color soon, and I'll put up some of the others as well.

The Untamed West

Unlike a lot of artists I know, I tend to sketch a lot of the same thing over and over for quite a while, rather then skip around stream of consciousness style. Right now that same thing seems to be this cowboy character.

I like to think he's some sort of trick shooter, by the clever name of Rick Shay, who abhors violence but can split a hair off your head looking through a mirror at forty paces in a rainstorm. At least that's what I like to think.
