I can't take much credit for this one. This is a celebrity caricature done by my best friend. He loves doing caricatures and has done them at several area art fairs, sporting events and private parties. He asked me to post this here on his behalf.
To see more of his work visit his portfolio site (which I built for him.)

I finished my 'Spider' Illustration. I really challenged myself on this one. I'm trying to create more complete scenes including the main subject, secondary characters, background elements, lighting etc. I also tried to do a more painterly-style as well instead of my usual vector art. It was much harder and more frustrating to move out of my comfort zone. I'm happy with the result but I need more practice with this type of illustration.
Let me know what you like or (even what you don't).

I was inspired to create this illustration using my whale character by a poem, "Mini Whale" by Carrie Heyes. You can view her reading the poem in this video clip. Haven't had a chance to work on this week's challenge, but I'd thought you like to see my latest.

When I first heard of this week's challenge, I quickly sketched out a concept I thought would be good. Here is my original drawing.
Then I tried to do an illustration which didn't exactly turn out as I had hoped. It just never captured the raw power of my original. So then I though I would just combined the sketch with some additional vector art and some raster effects. The result is below.
I think I still prefer my original concept sketch. What do you think?

This is the first part of three-part interactive narrative that follows my cute, original characters through a story arc while featuring voices, player decisions, and mini Flash games. Of course I have only completed the first part. Here is Episode 1.
It fits right in with this week's 'Bunny' Challenge as it features a bunny main character. I hope you enjoy it.

I'm getting in just under the wire, but here is 'My Little Pony' illustration. I used my signature skewed design. And of course it has to be pink.

Gregory Gunther!
Congratulations to Gregory Gunther. I loved so many of the entries that, as is usually the case, I had a very difficult time choosing. I chose Johanna Ahlard's "Mini Bigfoot" as the winner. Gregory's sweet vector-drawn mini-bigfoot and the clever design of the background earns him the win. Keep 'em coming, artists! Lots of awesome work!
Cool drawing! Looks like Gauntlet.
And I commend you for stepping out of your comfort zone, that's how you develope newer and better skills.
That poor little fairy, I hope she gets away. Great work.
Thanks for your comments. It really keeps me motivated to see what you think of my designs.
