I really liked Lara crofts design that can be found in the Japanese manual of tomb raider 1. Wanted to try drawing her!

I wrote a bunch out episodic outlines with these two that I want to turn into animatics. Disconnected scenes with no real beginning or end. Just right into random moments so I could just build the world, story and characters from there.

Hey guys! The new dog bros short: SKETCH SESH, BRO! Is finally out! The longest episode from the bunch, 5 minutes long! Again, thank you all for tolerating the sketchbook bros. Since bluesky only allows a 3 minute limit, I am adding the link to the youtube here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1QT...

When the sketchbook art bros get feedback from “outsiders”. This will be the last gag I will upload before dropping the full episode. Thanks for tolerating the sketchbook bros with me

When the sketchbook art bros are way too performative in public. Fake humbleness is a thing

when art sketchbook bros' invasive thoughts are said out loud. based on how some art bros describe the subjects they are drawing.

early rough boards from invincible season 4 episode 4. volcanikka's finisher where she shoves lava down one of the demon warrior's throats was originally a bit more sadistic and low key *sexual*. they changed it for something else in the final episode

old sketches of 'brute'. Still deciding between a comic and an animatic. Each have their beauties, but having other artists such as voice actors bring characters to life is such an encouraging and motivating thing

Brazilian jiu jitsu is another passion of mine (that’s why you see me doing pencil tests of grappling) and I’ve been low key thinking of a short film idea that takes place in one match. Here are some design ideas I have for the women competing. Need help deciding which one for the white woman.

This was the last season I worked on. I am forever thankful of the opportunity and the things I have learned from it. After I had left, I had to do a bit of soul searching, and wrestle with my self worth. Everyone worked hard and did amazing work, and I hope everyone gets see that!

decided to animate the remainder bit! The pug's name is Guns, so I'm thinking of naming the lifeguard dog Roses.

Made a new dog character to the Art dog bros. This one's a gremlin that draws a lot of yaoi (boy on boy love), and there will be a short about her one day. Her name will either be Tingting, Maritess, or Fujo. Waddya think

Did more sketches based off my young version of king harkinian from Zelda cdi. I imagined him as a friendly husky dude who would rather submit his foes and not going further than that.

What the bro dogs from the stupid shorts I’ve been doing look like as people. They were always Asian in mind and the brown dog is loosely based off a younger version of me

I storyboarded a fan anime opening for my favorite childhood game, megaman legends /ロックマンDASH I wanted to animate the whole thing, but that’s way too much effort. Did it in a way where I can fulfill that childhood dream and move on. Maybe one day I'll form a MAP project out of this!

animation sketchbook page 33, various laughing animation of my character Jessie. This was for a casual clip I animated a while back where each shot was her laughing. Since barely anyone saw that clip, I've decided to include them in a single spread. I love animating stuff like this
