A group of Illustrators are putting together a collection of 2 page comics so I though I'd put something together for this great idea. This is the result. If anything, I confirmed that I need some graphic design classes..
Boomstick Shawty
Like the title says: a shawty with a boomstick. Actually I have to decide which version to use for the ol' portfolio. What do you guys think: the one with glow (lighter) or the one without? Also looking to do more environments, probably the most neglected aspect of my art now. Enjoy.
Swoops
Got distracted from animating after I found the figure reference site http://lockstock.deviantart.com/gallery/ . It has awesome costumed female models along with a lot of classy nudes. Anyways I just sketched freely, experimenting, and tried to challenge myself to make the composition work in Photoshop. I brought it into Shake "post" and added some custom glow. Next, I have a old photograph book that I often draw from so I again sketched out an image in my sketchbook and photoshoped it up. Enjoy ladies and gentleman.
portfolio site
Real excited! I finally took the leap and made the leap into an official CGsociety memeber. This mean that I have my own portfolio page at CGsociety and they can host my pictures and my demo reel (when it's finished). It should be a great tool for employer's also.
See me at : http://ndballa24.cgsociety.org/gallery/
Time lapse action
To get into my head a little when I make a piece I put together this time lapse of my latest piece. Personally when other artists post things like this I learn tremendous amounts so hopefully somewhat can benefit. Enjoy!

Jesters and Arm Kings + outcast princesses!
Probably my most complicated image I've worked on. The lighting was tricky and I think that the highlights look pleasing but I'm not sure they accurate reflect the form. Also, about two weeks ago I was sure that I was going to use these characters for my thesis, but I've decided against it. It's too big of an idea. Thanks to Adam Hughes for inspiration in my coloring http://www.justsayah.com/.
...included my reference for lighting hahaha....thanks Javi and Elisa
slug queen with scaffolding....yes sir
Began this as a character design project but turned into more of an Illustration/design project because I ran out of time for detailed rendering. I am starting to realize the importance of texture in digital painting, it helps soooooo much..Enjoy.
goof girl *and toaster sketch
pencil sketch imported into photoshop..just goofing around. Check out Joao Paulo Alvares http://souvlaki.jp-ar.org/ and the mighty James Jean (fan site) http://www.jjeanius.net/ . These sites make up 90% of my reference and inspiration lately.
old ladies
Got to make this a fast one. A narrative illustration for computer illustration. Mr. James Jean guided the marks on this one. Enjoy
return of Earl
Now we know Earl can move out of his turn-around pose haha. David Feiss (of Ren and Stimpy, Cow and Chicken) is the king of facial expressions and influenced this guy a lot.
