GO FOR BROKE! / Re: Theo/AmanitaZest's Junk

I haven't started a thread like that- what exactly is it for?

I know that Renard's right hand still looks a little off, but if you'd be willing to point out the other errors, I 'd really appreciate it. Here are the character sheets I referenced while making this, if you're interested.

Fanart for Selenedragon's Renard, a character from DeviantDead, an OCT I competed in late last year. I was taken out of the first round, but my characters are still going on (long story, that one). Anyways, Renard is a British professor with a little chicken farm and a dog named Charlie that's followed him into a city infested with zombies, but more to the point, he also has a wife who passed away some time before DeviantDead started- I had always wanted to draw the two together, so I took time out today to get it done.

This is not at all inspired by a certain new game that came out. No sir.

I really like the inking on these, but some of the standing poses look a little awkward- the very last picture (a ringwraith?) in particular looks like he's leaning too much. Moving one of his legs out to the side would give him more balance.

Dang, I love your sketches! There's just so much style oozing out of everything you draw. I'm looking forward to seeing more!

Okay, I've played around with the page a bit. Does this look any better?

Here are a couple little things I've done over the past two days. It's finally sunny and warm outside again, so I celebrated with a little bit of scenery drawing. I tried my best to not cheat the tree branches, but I couldn't help myself. I'm really proud of the big one, I spent roughly an hour eyeballing the whole area and drawing it by hand.

I'm also almost done with another color page- just need to flesh out what backgrounds I have. I'm trying to go for more manga-style efficiency, and drawing only what absolutely needs to be seen. Hopefully it won't look totally cheap.

Eh, I liked about half of those covers- the rest just didn't stand out in my mind.

Why did America not get this awesome poster for Shutter Island?

Haha, my DD audition is actually the earliest of all those- I drew that October 09, and then Round 1 was December 09, and the latest comic was from February of this year.

Speaking of which, here's another page for that comic:

If you're interested, you can read the rest [urll=http://amanitazest.deviantart.com/]on my DA page.[/url]

And to prove that I don't just do cartoony stuff, here's some of my more realistic stuff.

Thanks! Here are some of my most recent comics:

THese are two pages from my audition for an awesome zombie-themed OCT called DeviantDead:

And here's a page from my Round 1 comic:

Weirdly enough, I lost the first round, but my characters were recruited by my opponent, and after he lost the next round his opponent adopted them. So, while I lost my first OCT, there's still a possibility that my characters might make it to the end.

Here's a page from the new comic I'm working on:

And for a little bonus, here are some little designs I whipped up last fall. I was initially excited when I found out that Warner Bros. produced some skateboards to promote Where the Wild Things Are, but found the end result to be.... lacking. Their designs are on the left, and my attempts to do better are on the right.

GO FOR BROKE! / Brian 'Zesty' Wolf's Art

« on: Mar 04, 2010, 12:56 PM »

Hello all! I'm Brian, AKA Theo or AmanitaZest- whichever name you prefer. I like drawing comics and cartoony junk, and have been doing so for most of my life. I heard about EnterVoid through ZsaBreuser and SpeedKing, and I'm eager to see more of the community here and (of course) make comics! Here's some of my latest pieces.

Lately I've been experimenting more with colors and odd combinations. I was inspired after poring over a collection of old Hanna-Barbera backgrounds to try and be bolder with my choices, so this was one of my first attempts.

This is the iD for my DeviantArt page and another color experiment- I noticed that a lot of the coolest backgrounds I saw had lots of neutral colors, so I wanted to see if I could get away with that.

Concept art for a character I want to enter in Void. I've got a couple other projects I wanna work on first though, so I don't know how long it'll be before I set up a proper thread for him.

New here? / Re: INTRODUCE YOURSELF

Hello everyone, I'm Theo. I've been doing comics for a little while, and was just recently involved in a zombie-themed OCT called DeviantDead. I heard this site mentioned by a couple of the more seasoned artists, and I was really excited to hear that something like this existed. I'm absolutely determined to improve my comicking abilities any way I can, and this looks like the perfect place to do so.

Here's my DA, if you're into that sort of thing.
