Sun Wukong

Recently I've been reading up on the Journey to the West, a famous Chinese story (some of you might recognise this from Jamie Hewlett's and Damon Albarn's animated titles for BBC's coverage of the 2008 Olympics). It's a pretty fascinating story so if you're interested in legends and whatnot, you might like to read up on it too :) Most recognisable is probably the main character named Sun Wukong, a monkey king who has some pretty impressive party tricks up his sleeve, like somersaulting through clouds. I realised he is just too cool to not draw, so here you go! This might even be the start of another set...


(decided to draw this after a little nagging from Rob, hehe)

Man head

Practising more head modelling in Maya.

Girl head

This was more of a practice piece than an actual illustration, hence the extremely creative title, 'Girl head'. I've only ever modelled a few heads in 3d so I thought it would be a good idea to make another attempt.


Maya, as usual.

PS I'm super happy that lots of people downloaded my wallpapers, cheers!

Solar System wallpapers

Here they all are lined up, in order of course!

I've made two sets of desktop wallpapers, dark and light with both being available in the following resolutions:
1280 x 800
1680 x 1050
1920 x 1200
Download them from here.

Enjoy! I certainly enjoyed drawing them :)

Earth and Mercury

Hooray, all eight planets are now complete! I decided to re-do Earth again because he didn't really match his 'orb-headed' friends.

Coming soon will be desktop wallpaper and prints at my shop.


#3 Earth


#1 Mercury

Venus

No, Venus is not a sexy Roman goddess.

Mars

I think planet #4 is a bit annoyed with those techy things we keep sending over.

Uranus

Say a sideways hello to planet #7, Uranus.

Jupiter

+1 more, #5 Jupiter. Half way through now, only four to go (although I may go back to redo Earth since the rest have heads that are 'whole' planets...if that makes sense).

Saturn and Neptune

#6 and #8 of the Solar System set I'm now working through.


Saturn.


Neptune.
