NSFW: They're stereotypes! There must be more to life!

This was for my Advertising Illustration class, in which you illustrate a well-known stereotype.

Before I continue, I should warn you that the following image contains hippie nudity, which means lots of gross, unwashed hippie hair in gross, unwashed hippie places.



There you have it.

You become Morlock, you get new face!



This dandy little anti-beauty was done for Color Illustration, taught this year by world-famous oil panter Rowena Morrill. She really liked the pipes.

These guys are the Morlocks, a bunch of butt-ugly mutant outcasts who love H.G. Wells. Sometimes they get along with their fellow mutants, the X-Men, and sometimes they don't, and sometimes a bunch of other mutants hunt them down and kill them. They're an interesting bunch of people. I was planning to include more than just four of them in the picture, but I ended up falling too much in love with the background to cover it up with a bunch of ugly mutie freaks.

The Virgin Post

First post, eh? Better make it good.

This is the latest assignment for my Basic Drawing class. The task was to pencil, ink, and color an illustration featuring a well-known landmark that's been altered in some way, but not enough to make it unrecognizable. I picked the Great Wall of China, and I stuck some future junk on it and blew a hole in the wall. I also threw in some Mongolians from the future. They just won't stop breaking down the city wall!

The color rendering was mostly done with the Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet. After about three months of messing around with the damn thing, I think I'm finally getting the hang of it.
