Holiday Vet Card 2013

This is the fifth year of doing a Christmas card for this veterinary clinic.

Its always fun drawing out all their animals.

And yeah these are all their hospital animals, I imagine the halls are just filled with the dogs and cats running around. Perhaps some of them are even doctors? That one dog over there looks like he knows his way around a stethoscope...

Mighty No.9 Poster (Boss Version)

Made an alternate version of yesterdays poster to include the bosses.
I know their silhouettes could change as the boss designs are revealed in the coming weeks but this works for now. 

Again check out the KICKSTARTER!

And here's some concept work I did for the piece.

Mighty No.9!

If you've followed my blog for a while you've seen that Mega Man had a huge impact on me as a kid. I drew the characters all the time and made hundreds of my own bosses. It made me want to draw more and be creative and make my own video games. Great stuff!

Well now that Keiji Inafune has left Capcom and can no longer make Mega Man games he created something new. MIGHTY No.9!

If you are nostalgic for those old MM games or anything of the sort please consider supporting the Kickstarter campaign, we've already met the goal to get the game made but we still have a bit to go to reach the console release of it, plus all the extra goals past that.
