Character Design

These are designs for an animated TV show titled The Incredibly Strange World of Johnny Armani. Here are just a handful of characters who appeared in it. It dealt with Johnny Armani and his travels through various seedy dance clubs and the exotic characters that live in that world.

MR FRANKIE

Mr. Frankie is an intimidating looking man who tends bar. he suffered a stroke so half his face has no expression. He has a scary exterior but turns out to be quite a softy who hopes to open a sandwich shop.

ATOM BOMB 

Atom Bomb is a club DJ who also happens to be a vampire. He is dating Johnny Armani's long lost daughter who also works at the club. Atom is not very bright, mispronounces way too many (big) words and reads a LOT of science fiction.

 

Pencil Sketch

I used to draw my dreams when I woke up. Kept a sketchbook of drawings. Later I would write them down and I wrote two screenplays based on dreams. This comp is based entirely on dreamy images.

TOY CONCEPTS

These are a couple of sketches that were created for various booths and displays for Toy Fair back in New York.

These are a couple of Winnie the Pooh sketches that were created for Pooh frames. They never went further than the sketch phase as far as I know.

MARKETING
Various concepts for shoe displays and such from a variety of jobs.

SPACE CENTER BREMEN

Here are concepts for a logo to be used for an indoor theme park called Space Center Bremenin Germany. Since then it has built. Never been there but I'm sure it's cool. 

 

KID INTUITION
The LAUSD started a program in which a kid used a lot of common sense in everyday situations. Oh, and he was a DJ and liked to pose like a gangsta - no lie. Anyway, here is a model sheet of the kid. These poses were actually used in the Kid Intuition book.

WEBSITE

My cousin Franklin (right - Silver Surfer) needed a Marvel comic inspired sketch for his bands website KFD. I started the drawing but never had time to finish it. It may show up in a more complete form soon though. Okay it's not exactly a website, but it's supposed to be on a website.
