Andar vs. The Deathbot


I don't know if I'll have time to draw a new robot by the deadline, so I'm just going to have to post one from the archives.

Washington Avenue Banner Contest...

This is an ongoing "contest" to have your banner on the top of the page until we grow weary of and create a new one to replace it.

Specifications:
1. Must have "Washington Avenue.Blogspot.com" on the Banner.

2. Has to be 9 inches long, 2 to 4 inches high and set to 72DPI. Format should be a indexed GIF or a reasonably sized JPG.

3. Must look awesome and not blurry.

Other than these three specs feel free to create and exploit!
There are no prizes but bragging rights and a feeling of a job well done. (yeah, sorry I'm one of those starving artist, and cheap to boot.)
Good luck, People.

Upgrade!

I'm trying to establish a better posting habit...
Here is my entry for March: Robots.

I did a lot of prelims for this Challenge, because I love knocking out a sketch or two a day involving robots jumping around. I will prob load some of these sketches in the next couple of days.

The title is "Upgrade" I'm going to let the title guide your thought...
Enjoy!

Washington Ave. Banner


I made a quick signature banner tonight for anyone who wants to use it:
It is the standard 200x40 pix size and can also be done as a direct link here: http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r290/rohwer_25/b.gif
If y'all hate it, let me know, and I'll take it down.

I'm new to the team and wanted to post something as soon as I could, so this is an older robot, but I will try to get out something new before the next subject comes up. My web site is http://www.matthewrnelson.com/ for anyone interested.

a real monster entry!


Hey Guys! It's real quiet here so when I had some paint (gouache) left after another project I thought I'd make a real cute monster picture especially for this month's theme. I hope you like it ^^

Gekko monster!

This Tokay is based on old sketches for different races I made, I wanted to try something with a reptilian look. Together with a friend (Petra de Roodt, who did the colouring of this piece) we decided to give them an Aztek look ^^. I draw them in a side story for Petra's comic (Tirn Aill)

I really like the way even the pupils of Mayor Riba are strange. It's fun drawing completly none-human characters, at least for me it is.
