Anyone that remembers this paint-sketch from back in July of 2008, well… thanks for being so loyal. Oddly enough, this very image landed me a small job recently, which resulted in the surly creature getting a bit of a polishing-up.

This client was looking for something half cheetah, half shark, as sort of a mascot for their office team. As it turns out, a Google image search of the term “cheetah shark” turns up the above sketch as result number one.  After locating this image and subsequently coming to my site, I’m sure that the client immediately realized that he had found the premier authority on cheetah-sharks.

Really, of the handful of things I’ve drawn, I never imagined the chesnark bringing in clients.

Here’s the new re-paint. It’s really more of a Cheshark, as the snake elements have been removed via genetic modification.

Just saw TRON:Legacy the other night in IMAX 3D. I thought it was great, so here’s a little paint sketch. No spoilers.

EDIT: Just to be clear, the movie was pure garbage and quite disappointing, but I enjoyed it anyhow.

Been watching too much Family Guy lately.

Plenty of pictures of near-nude or completely nude ladies on the internet, may as well put them to good use as study aides.

No obscene nudity here, just a little “side boob” in the one, which shouldn’t be offensive. If it is, just close your browser and shut off the computer, everything will be okay… it’ll be okay.

Focusing mainly on the back here – one of my biggest problem areas (I feel).

And some quick color studies.

Tonight’s warm up turned out to take a lot longer than I anticipated. Spent way too much time working on this pose – still not even sure I’m 100% happy with it.
