Oh Udon

The work I entered into Udon's Megaman Tribute Contest. This piece is from the Megaman X5 Series. The Shiver saluting his fallen Air Force Mavericks Storm Owl and Storm Eagle.

Wild Jango is from Megaman X Command Mission. I loved the characters from the game and I loved the storyline, I just hated the game because it was an RPG. I loved this character because I thought it was funny how he always started a sentence with, YOWRRR!

Zelda's 25th Anniversary

I had actually did this late last year but never thought to post it til now. This year marks the 25th Anniversary of the franchise. Legend of Zelda is my all time favorite video game, we're talking about a game that paved the way for many video games. This is my take on The Legend of Zelda: A link to the Past, which is also one of my favorite story from the series, great game play and work of story telling all in one.

The Possibility Project


This is my lasted t-shirt design for Love and Water design's monthly feature charity contest. Please take the time to cast a vote for my design here. The cause this month is for "The Possibility Project", a young group of diverse teenagers who get together to deal with a combination of issue-oriented discussions, trainings in diversity, conflict resolution, leadership and community activism. They also receive instruction in the full range of performing arts, and create scenes that they write, produces and perform as original musicals based on their lives and their ideas for change. In addition, they design and lead community action projects on issues of concern to them in order to take their creative vision for change into the world. Feel free to visit their site to learn more of them, link

My idea behind this is that I wanted to create something where the team of the Possibility Project can relate to. The figures in this piece represent the unknown generation youth revealing themselves to the community with their good deeds of service with theatrical flare.

I did this one as an updated one because I felt the first one might of been too busy for a t-shirt but the first one was chosen for the contest. Please cast your votes soon, the deadline is Thursday at noon. Thanks.

Sprinterz Studio Shop


Check Out the new Sprinterz Studio Shop! When I first designed the Sprinterz logo, I did it to express my love for track as an ex-sprinter and my love for the arts. I may not sprint anymore due to my dedication to the arts but I do try to keep up by still going out to run. I wanted to share my logo with other sprinters and all lovers of track runners and runners alike so they too can connect and represent their love for running and sprinting. So this is to them and all those who follow my art. Check out and grab a sprinterz tee today through the Sprinterz Studio website or on this link.

Happy V-Day 2011!

Something I did last year, figure I'd share it on the blog on this day. An illustration that tells of a action/romantic tale. This is something off of Disney's animation "Jake Long-American Dragon". I thought it was a bit interesting because of the romantic aspect of the story. It's your classic Batman vs. Catwoman romance.

Jake Long is a teenager who transforms into a dragon to protect the fantasy world from the Huts Clan. His love interest Rose is secretly a.k.a Huts Girl, member of the Huts Clan and a slayer of dragons. They eventually find out of each others secrete identities and their secrete lives conflict with their romantic relationship. Rose is especially conflicted because the Huts Clan is the only family she ever knew.
When Jake discovers that the Huts Clan kidnapped Rose from her real family as an infant to join their clan, he makes a magic wish to prevent her from ever being kidnapped which resulted in them never meeting. Jake does find her again on the other side of the world later in the story. After convincing the new Rose that they once knew each other in a altered life. Jake and Rose team up to fight against the new villain of the series, an evil dragon.

It's never known if the two ever got back together, unless they did that long distance thing. Happy V-Day!

Oldies Ideas 3: School's Adventures

Another Oldies Ideas from my youth. About the last idea for a comic I came up with when I was young. This was a personal, fun project with a cartoon style I put together at school.
School's Adventures was a journal based comic about events that took place between friends and I in grade school. The idea was to find ways to make school fun. I even made a few short stories to keep things interesting along with some of the crazy things that went on back then.
Idealistically, School's Adventures is suppose to have an 80's and early 90's feel to it. Things that inspired me for this at the time were movies like "The Breakfast Club", "Better off Dead", "Three O'clock High" and shows like "The Wonder Years" with Fred Savage and "Saved By The Bell", along with a lot of 80's music. These are old, I wonder if anyone knows or remember these.
The comic was drawn in a composition notebook I always carried around at school hence the reason for a composition cover here. This book was especially special to me because it held a lot of good times, fun, nostalgic memories.
