NERD POKER

I do not think that there are words known to humanity that could describe the level of excitement that housed itself in my body for the duration of this project. Brian Posehn. Dungeons & Dragons. Swords. Armor. The universe was truly looking in my direction the day this project landed in my lap.

Brian wanted to lean on the 2nd Edition D&D books, and feature him on a horse with a sweet blade. Holy elder gods, yes!!! It was like he KNEW what existed in my sketchbooks already. I took to the pages and started to get in the groove. I had a few false starts in Photoshop before finally getting final line art nailed down on bristol board. Scanned that into Photoshop and proceeded to finish it all up.

I’m super stoked with how it turned out. If you’re a fan of Brian’s or of Dungeons & Dragons, I implore you to go listen to the show.

IMPROV 4 HUMANS

Make a logo for another Matt Besser’s new improv 4 humans show?! Ummmm… yes please. We started with a sketchfest in my book of secrets. After some initial feedback and some other refined ideas, we settled on the Besserdog.

I pulled a few reference files and rendered the final for coloring. I then had the very gracious Benjamin “Adventureface” Braman digitally paint the illustration while I worked on the final layout for the cover.

*cymbal crash*

YEAH! Go check out i4h. It is consistently on it’s game and makes me cry laughing.

One of my favorite moments from Comedy Bang Bang on IFC.  Check out the Michael Cera episode to see its brilliance.

 I have always admired Paul’s hairstyle but not until drawing it did I truly appreciate it’s brilliance. 

I honestly believe he is the funniest man alive.  If you are not aware of him go seek out his work in any of it’s forms.  The Pod F. Tomkast, his new standup DVD Laboring Under Delusions, or any of his guest appearances on other podcasts might be good places to start.  He is a regular and hilarious contributor to Comedy Bang Band the TV show and the podcast.

And I am reposting this because today is a PFT kinda day.

Here is a painting I did of the logo for Comedy Bang! Bang! If you don’t know what that is, it is one of the funniest podcasts in the world. Now Comedy Bang! Bang! is also one of the funniest and most inventive TV shows that I have ever seen, it is on IFC Fridays at 10pm if you are interested,…

EARWOLF POSTER PROCESS

Ever wondered how that fancy schmancy Earwolf poster came to be? I’ve got a secret, it started in a book that looks to be managed by a serial lunatic (me) and finally finished on a bonafide press. Here are the very first thumbnail sketches I produced when tasked with producing a poster in only a matter of weeks.

After that massacare, I finally started to narrow it down to a smaller handful of approaches. I rendered new art for final scans and then took to the computer to make them sexy and smooth.

When all was said and done, we settled on the mounted wolf head which you can just so happen to procure here. Jeff and Scott even sign it! As a little bonus to this “look back”, I went ahead and included some options that just didn’t make the cut — much to my chagrin. Oh well, perhaps they’ll see production one day.

THE ICE ELF COMETH

I can’t think of a better way to start this whole tumbling thing off than with a post serving as a sacrifice to the Ice Elf that Matt Besser’s Björk can summon with… well, who even knows?! I did this out of pure joy, only to find out I’d soon be working on BOTH of Matt’s show logos on Earwolf. I’m looking forward to sharing more of all that I haven’t done AND have done, for Earwolf.

I thought it might be cool to see the sketch AND final product… right?
Of course I’m right. I’m also write. *cough* DON’T JUDGE ME!

Weird Al’s sayin’ hi!

I thought about modeling the legend of musical theatre and little Fourvel’s potential benefactor after the actual guy for about 2 seconds, but… Come on.  I think we all know who pulls this look off better than anyone.

Coming up next: More Fourvel!  More not-so-sketchy Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber!  Lord/Orphan INTERACTING?  Maybe! (Definitely!)  God bless Comedy Bang Bang for providing us with these amazing characters.
