We had a visit from Jeffrey Katzenberg the other day. He gave the official 'greenlight' for the Kung Fu Panda television series at Nickelodeon.. I did a few sketches to get my head into the upcoming style..

Hello!
Here is another quick study I found while going through some old work.. These are some studies I drew for a theatrical project.
They are rather traditional but it is the look that the producer was looking for..
Thanks for stopping by..

Hi!
It's been a bit since I last posted anything. I've been very busy at Nickelodeon, working on the CGI department. We're working on some great looking shows!
I was rummaging around and found this drawing... I thought I'd post (to prove I'm still alive)..hhh. Thanks for stopping by.

lunch time painting......

2007-03-29T12:54:00.000-07:00

Hi,
Well here's a new painting that I've done during my lunch break..I'm having a blast working with the new Cintiq tablet that Disney provided for me to use. Shout out to my buddy John Nevarez who is also working on the same show as I. He's such a talented inspiration and a great guy!
Peace,
Brent.

Hi everyone,
Well, it's been awhile since my last post... I'm currently working on 'Tinkerbell' at Disney. It looks GREAT! Very talented crew producing it..I get to hang with my 'ol buddy SIlver too.. lotta fun. Well, I'm trying some new techniques, I thought I'd post it. Thanks for checking in,
Brent.

Ok, so I tried a new plug-in called 'The Set Up Machine'.... I admit I had some difficulties, the tutorial is kind of fast. I then spent two days doing my own complex rig...."Where was that 'Set-up machine' plug-in ?" I tried it again and this time it seems to work well. I still have some additional weighting to do, but all in all very nice controls and (once you get the hang of it), relatively effortless compared to the laborious rig I was building. The nice thing is, it has an FK_IK blend. My good friend Shahen Jordan, one of Hollywoods leading matt painters, is working on a beautiful set for Frankenstein. Check out his work on my blog link. Amazing! Well, things are moving along.. Thanks for checking in..Stay tuned.

P.S. Shout out to my Homie, Roger Dickes of Glendale Community College. 'His pimp hand is strong, he got mad skills'. His art department is sick and ill. If you want to learn Maya, take his classes, 'you be ridin' on dubs'.

Super hero?

2006-03-17T00:24:00.000-08:00

Well Steve, I've done it too. I've joined the ranks of super hero stuff. I couldn't help but be inspired by the art work of Sean Galloway. I created this piece by the influence of his wonderful drawings. I love the weight and volume in his work. This is a piece for fun and inspiration. Enjoy!
