Least Favourite Cobra's


 Scrap-Iron


Copperhead

Sorry for the radio silence ... it's been busy. But I'm back and I've decided to draw my least favourite Cobra's (from GI Joe).

Scrap-Iron. Lame Cobra, lame outfit.

Copperhead. Cool costume but a lame character that likes to ride his little boat around in the bayou.

Old zip-a-tone artwork!!!

Donnie from The Big Lebowski

Major Bludd from G.I. Joe

Zartan from G.I. Joe

I posted these images a couple of weeks ago on my Instagram (@tyrone_mc). I found these old art projects that I did when I was at OCAD. At the time I got a stack of zip-a-tone from this architect store and I was experimenting with it like crazy. It was fun to use but lots of labour was involved. Now a days it's so much easier to do it on the computer but back then there was no good program that was capable of getting that zip-a-tone look.

Arts Alive Day!


Recently, I was part of Arts Alive Day at my son's school. It's a day when the whole school gets involved in creating art. Each classroom has several stations set up. I decided I would run one called Create a Superhero. I supplied outline drawings of a guy and girl superhero. The kids used a combination of art supplies like crayons, markers and construction paper to design their costumes. Overall the kids loved it and I had a blast!! Enjoy the pics.

Horses, shopping and UFOs!!



Check out this illustration I did for The Canadian Sportsman. To be honest I'm not exactly sure what the article is about. They just tell me what to draw & I do it. It's pretty much the process that goes on when I'm working with them. I don't mind makes my job easier.

MASCOT DESIGN!!!




Hey there! Here's a mascot design I did for Maximum Sports Nutrition. It was real fun to do.

Their first idea for the design was to have it as a bulldog (as seen below). They then changed their minds and decided to have it as a wrestler. So there ya go! Enjoy!

Dissing the Horse!

This illustration is (of course) for The Canadian Sportsman. To be honest I forget what the article was about. Sorry ... I even forgot I did this (did this at the end of 2010). I do know this is another piece I did strictly using the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator. At the time I thought this was an easier and faster way to work ... but I was wrong. So this is the last time I used this process. Thank goodness! Check out my sketches.



Here's the first sketch, it got shot down. Man I wish I could elaborate on this, I totally forget!



And this is the second sketch. The winner!

Jay Leno T-Bonin'!

Here's and illustration I did for The Canadian Sportsman. The article is about the writer and his friends trip to Hollywood. Even though I'm not a fan of Leno he sure was fun to draw.

I was trying a new technique with this piece. I decided to strictly used the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator. I had fun with this piece.

Here's a movie poster I did for the Post No Bills show in September. I did the movie Stand By Me. This is by far the most memorable scene in the movie for me, don't you agree?

This 'n That ...

Hey ... Happy New Year! Here are some illustrations that got published during the tail end of last year. What's different about these, is that they are all completely digital. I've been moving myself away from paper and doing everything lately on the computer. It just saves me time. So check 'em out.





These four were for "French Homework" a textbook by Scholastic.

And this one was for The Canadian Sportsman. The article was about how horses that harness race have to retire after a couple of years.

Also remember to check out my webcomic "Corporate Life" with writer Apollo. A new strip is released every Wednesday, check it out: http://ninjacat.ca/Corporate_Life.html
