White Tiger


Alright so I was in LA for a training meeting last week and got busted by my Regional Director doodling. Let me put this into perspective....it's my boss's boss. The big guy! This used to happen to me all the time at my previous employer, but I had been there for 10yrs and everyone knew I was still paying attention. Not the best thing to do at a new company, where I haven't proven myself just yet.

Sooo to make a long story short, after a very pale atte
mpt to justify my doodling, I made a deal. I'd do an image of a White Tiger for our Regional Mascot, and we would forget about my notebook covered with random sketches....and a few not
es here and there.

Here is my crack at doing a White Tiger. Haven't done any "realistic" stuff in awhile so I'm rusty. I posted the step by step. I picked green because it is the color of the product we promote. I need to work on how to do eyes digitally, can't quite get them the way I picture the in my head. Still learning how to do this digital thing.
Hope you like it.

Meet Mojo Mojo





Here is the image I submitted for my last digital painting class at Schoolism.com. The background is a little lack luster, but that's what you get for doing the assignment at 2am.

This is a character I came up with awhile ago. I was drawing
with my 4yr old son and he liked the little guy. He asked what his name was and the first thing that popped out of my head was Mojo-Mojo. I know it doesn't make sense but my son cracked up so the name stuck.

The step by step is below. Let me know what you think.
This is the original sketch I did on a scratch pad.

First I did the base colors


Next I added some Fur



This is the sketch I did with my son.
Hope you like them.
