Zaltag falls victim to Zoogtag.Zoog tag is just like how we play tag, The different with Zoog's is there version of tag is a lot more physical, in order for a Zoog to tag another Zoog is to pounce on them.

The character that tag Zaltag is named Mark he a Zoog as well. I'm going to be re doing this strip latter on.

Relic Run: PrismaColor Markers experiment

This one was an shading experiment with PrismaColor Markers and it turned out pretty well.
I chose to use this technique on my monster character Relic cause he has such a neat color of grey and black and I wanted to see how I can handle shading with those colors.

Zoog Houes Concept art

This is a design concept for Zaltags house.

A Zoog house is not like our, form this drawing you can see that Zoogs house are made up of trees, stone, grass and dirt. It's actually looks like a big hill with trees and roots growing out of it.

There environment is made up of earth elements so many house and building look like this one but in different shape and size.

I'm not sure when I'll be done with this but I'll have it done sooner or latter I'm not in a rush to finish this.

Zoogville: Through the Thorns

As part of his leadership training with the elders, Zaltag has to learn how to use his surrounding to his advantage.So here we see Zaltag learning how to use the thorns to get away from danger.

His first try wasn’t all that good, The elders are timing him on his speed on this and he’s getting stuck on a few thorn branches and coming to dead ends.

Hopefully he’ll get the hang of it time.

Aw man this took me a long time to do.The drawing took the longest because of the detail I wanted it.

Then I inked it put it in the scanner to clean it up on the computer and then colored this thing in Artrage.

I took a different approach to how I shaded this; instead of using the color burn tool that I always use on my digital works, I used the linear burn which gives this a better shading effect from the scene.

Zoogville Comic: The Appointment Page 1 to 3

I got all three pages now I got a lot more to do.
I'm not sure how many pages this story will be but I'll get it done someday for now I'm just working on it pages by page as I go.

Zoogville Comic: The Appointment Page 1: Done

I was unable to get a Comic Life Spftwaer so I had to use my Flash for the text and logo but it cam out good, I may do a change to it latter. But at lest I got page 1 done.

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss

It's Theodore Geisel(aka) Dr. Seuss B-Day who would have been 105 today, and googles has a logo of some of his characters on it in honor of this great artist.

Dr. Seuss was one of the best author for children's books. Happy birthday.

And here's some Seuss art of my own I did.

Now I have to look around the stores and get that Comic life software for a better the fonts for this.
