So, here we are again with more mecha mania for all my fellow lovers of giant robots! I’m still pulling these from a really old sketchbook as I try to get more content with my up-to-date skills built up in my newest sketchbook for these adventures that we are on. So, here we will continue…
In case I hadn’t made it clear in my coverage of Code: HARDCORE’s campaign, I absolutely love giant robots. Like, maybe i don’t spend as much money on merchandise as some people do, and maybe I don’t watch every single series like some people do, but I dream of Giant Robots, I see Giant Robots…
As I further developed my foreshortening and anatomy skills, I started pushing myself to try new things with my art that I had felt were beyond me previously. I arrived at this idea of blocking out a specific space on the page and trying to use photo references to assist me in understanding how to…

I started out last week by telling you that in six hours with Ty Templeton (you can find his course at www.comicbookbootcamp.com daddy-o!)…
Note: I had intended for this to run in time with the classes, but now there is a significant delay due to, well, life. So, this is now several weeks behind where I am at. However I still intend on keeping track here of this process. It’s funny to think that while I attended CEGEP…
