Toejam and Earl

I have had some sketches of these guys in my sketchbook for a while now. I have been planning a larger drawings of Toejam and Earl.

I was reminded how fun this Sega video game was when I downloaded it for my Nintendo Wii a couple of months ago. When I was in school my friends and I would spend hours on this game. This game has amazing imagination from the weird player settings(rocket Skates, total bummer,schoolbook) to the unconventional villains (giant Gerbil, mad dentist and nerd herd.)
If you don't know these characters...check these games out!

Here is some sketch work I did for Toejam and Earl.
Cool '80 Hiphop Aliens from Funkatron!
Enjoy,
Bob

No aliens yet...

But I haven't been quiet either ^^ I have made a few things worth showing here. If anyone has any Feedback, that's always appreciated.

First thing is a short story I made for an assignment of the art academy. The teacher said: "live in a garbage can for a week and show me in images."

Here is part of the story I made for him:

Here is the rest of "The Garbage Monster".


Second thing to show is a drawing I have worked on for nearly a year. The details nearly killed me and I would have stopped long ago if I didn't really enjoy scribbling away at this lovely tree.

I'm planning on adding some paint washed in the background to add more depth.

I'm also working on a new short story and I might show some sketches of the characters. One of those is actually an alien, so it would fit into the monthly challenge ^^


That's all for now!

THE "IT'S ON" CHALLENGE FOR APRIL...ALIENS!

THE "IT'S ON" CHALLENGE FOR APRIL...ALIENS!
Ever since I was a small child I have looked to the stars looking for signs of extraterrestial life. From the thought of other alien civilizations, planet hopping UFOs or a close encounters with actual extraterrestials; my imagination reeled with visions of aliens.

What is your vision, Are your aliens cute or scary, sexy or monstous?
Show us what you think about aliens...


Have a great month guys...
Enjoy...
