Delta State - Martin

Delta State was a show that intrigued me when I was going through jr. high and so-on. Though only ever having "peasant vision" (13 tv channels) growing up (the tragedy of living in a small village), I only ever saw a few spare episodes. Until it was posted many years later on youtube that is! (Thank you, youtubers) :D I've always wanted to give it a try and reboot the characters and possibly villains (if I muster up enough courage that is!).

My inspiration is the video game "Infamous" (Second Son is awesome), the cartoon Ben 10: Omniverse series, and Batman The Brave and the Bold.

The Back Story via Wiki-attack: "Delta State is a Canadian animated television series, based on a comic book by Douglas Gayeton (which was never released), featuring four amnesiac roommates with the ability to subconsciously enter an ethereal realm known as the Delta State. They face the dual tasks of piecing together their past lives and battling a group of Delta State denizens called Rifters, who seek to control the human mind. The main characters are Claire, Martin, Luna, and Philip.

The series debuted September 11, 2004 on Teletoon, the Canadian cartoon television network. It is the first animated television series to be entirely rotoscoped, taking over 27 months to complete.

Delta State is a French / Canadian co-production with designs, story-boards etc. done by Alphanim in Paris; shooting and recording were performed by Nelvana Canada. The project was conceived by Douglas Gayeton, who also directed the original pilot and wrote the bible for the show.

The show has won the Special Award for a TV program at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival and the Frames 2004 for best Asian Production."

Godzilla Reboot - Nik Finalized, For Sure This Time

While I liked the flash style (and younger) look for the characters for my Little Zilla Reboot, I felt that it'd be more fun to design the main character a little older. Someone who likes to "Parkour" around, landing himself in trouble more than not.

On a side note, can't wait to see the new Godzilla movie.

Another Year Come and Gone

It's the beginning of a new year and 2013 is nothing more than a memory. What better way than to start the new year than to reminisce and see where one has come from?

Two sketches are of Legend of Mana. An old Playstation game by Square-Enix (Squaresoft at the time). Love the game, and wanted to do a redesign.

The last picture is a clipboard of images from when I started school in 2005 at VanArts. (ah, memories)

-Laterz and enjoy!
