Jurassic World

I had a few commissions pop up at the end of last year, including three from one fan I met at a convention in September. As a Christmas gift for his daughter, he asked me to draw her swooning over Owen from Jurassic World as they ride his bike with the raptor squad. This was tricky to figure out (I really don't like drawing vehicles) but it was a a fun piece and we all loved the way it turned out.

Draw Every Day 351-365

 

Looking back through, I realized I skipped posting a group of drawings back from July. So here they are mixed in with the rest of my X-Mas drawings and the last few from the end of 2013. I'm very happy to say that my Draw Every Day was a success -- I pushed some limits, I practiced things I felt were weak, I celebrated movies and holidays and commited myself to putting pencil to paper every day for a year. You can still see my updates a few times a week on Twitter and Instagram @natexopher

...to prehistoric times! well actually i made this somewhere around a year and a half ago. it was my first assignment in illustration 1 and my first time using gouache. i like how it came out, but i don't think it's a process i'll be using too often. in fact, i haven't used it since.

um... yeah. he's a t-rex assassin. that came from a conversation with my roommate at the time.
