GOT A NEW IDEA

THE RESCUE

-This story is about a sailors' girlfriend got stolen by amazon people. So he's on a boat in the search of his lover. The amazon people sees them and they have a giant robot/monster/thing that destroys his ship. He survives and wakes up seeing his beautiful girlfriend as the way he remembers her and then when he sees clearly she is now one of the amazon people! And he realizes that he is a sacrifice and she is the one sacrificing!

-I think this will be a fun idea of an ending. Instead of saving the girl the girl becomes part of the tribe. Drunk with power she doesn't even remember he past life!...let me know what you think.

And here is what he's pretty much going to look like.

Rough Panels for pre-production animation

_APE MONKEY THE MECHANIC_

-I've been wanting to do this comic for a while now so I was thinking on doing an animated introduction for the comic book.

THE IDEA

-The story is about a hot rod race and Ape Monkey (the main character) is in the race. A mysterious man in the crowd rigged his car with explosives and sabotages it. His car explodes and you expect him to be dead. Next scene you see the mysterious man counting his reward for sabotaging the race. He hears a knock and the Ape Monkey barges through his door. They do a shoot off and Ape Monkey wins. Then you have the introduction of Ape Monkey while he's eating a banana.

It's a simple story but I think it's a simple enough introduction for the comic. So here are the work in progress panels. Some panels look more like a comic pages...I couldn't help it :)  

Click on the first panel for closer view and click on it for the next one.

Here's some 3d stuff that i worked on. Rigging is not fun. But it's good to know that's for sure.

 

 

Here's the process for this guy. I little too much detail lol. But what evah

 

I always like doing the color in a different layer mostly for this reason lol.
