skate or die! - page 2


Here is the second page of "Skate or die!" web-mini-comic, as promised.
I'm starting to realize this strip could seriously use some dialog to flesh it out, I think when it's finished I'll go back and add some.
Hope everyone had a great New year! - Mikey

HAPPY NEW YEAR!


2007去年が難しいでしたけど、2008今年は新しいはじめことんです!
自由万!! 「ばんざい!!」

2007 was a rough year, but this 2008 is a year of new beginnings!
Some years feel like a rip'em up bar room brawl (the kind you see in the old cowboy movies).
But this year I'm expecting. Expecting new and good things!
This (my first piece of art for 2008) sums up how I feel coming out of 2007. Beat up, but stronger for it... and ready for what may lay ahead. BRING IT!! (as they say)

jam sessions!



This week we attempted something different for our group jam session. Each person was to come up with a basic theme and everyone would create an image around that.


The first image -was of devil girl on the rocks; second- aliens, futuristic vehicle ,and setting; third - perfect video game controller; And fourth- ninja girl and a skateboard.


If any one would like to play I'll set the theme for next weeks jam session post.
4 images of speed(motion) in action : 1.- representing man; 2.- repesenting animal ; 3.- repesenting object; 4- representing point of view.


Have fun see you next week. And remember you can e-mail me your jam sessions at inthelifeofmike@hotmail.com

Jam sessions!




This past week my friends and I, while hanging out ,fell back into an old system we once used to motivate us to loosen up and be more creative," The Character Jam Session".


It starts with each person dividing their paper into squares, then filling the first square with a quick character doodle, then everyone trades back and forth until everyone has done a rendition of the each persons characters.


The focus is to play with perspective , style , and storytelling elements using each others characters; while increasing the speed of your creative ( thought to action -)process and basically draw something that you might otherwise never find yourself having done before or often.


Anyways here are some of the pieces we cranked out, mine are colored while the others are presented in monotone. Enjoy!
