**CRAIGGERS** · October 29th, 2008, 10:06 AM

hey peter check out my lobster giraffe on "its finally finished"

**RETEP** · January 17th, 2009, 02:03 PM

im back!!! its only been like five months since i last posted.

smash- i never got any of those creature designs, still waiting for them...

matsign-thanks

craig- i checked out your lobster giraffe, its awesome. i can't believe thats your first digital piece.

so heres a pitiful update from my toned sketchbook. i have to pick and choose from alot of images(there's honestly not much good to choose from). there will be tons more to come now that i have scanner access again (i have an entire sketchbook i finished since last time i posted). chronology from sketchbook to sketchbook is going to be all out of whack since i work in all of them simultaneously, but as long as i am getting it posted im happy.

begin...

i was looking at way too much Gary baseman

unfortunately one of the only real concept drawings i've done lately

concept for a painting i never completed

working on narrative

fabric study

went to a figure drawing session the other night, i hadn't been in ages. my hands feel like they have rusted over.

thats all from my toned sketchbook.
i will try to update the rest asap.

finish.

**RETEP** · January 21st, 2009, 01:10 PM

Here are some drawings from a very small sketchbook i have, i wanted to experiment alot with different styles and ideas. Again i am picking and choosing from many pages, and i still have more to update from it.

I was looking at too much Renaissance imagery

...more updates coming soon...

**RETEP** · January 23rd, 2009, 06:14 PM

heres some more finishing up the small sketchbook...

never finished this one. there was supposed to be balls of legs in the background, and i was planning on making a larger one.

i posted this color study because it was one of the original color studies that got me playing with color alot more.

painting on sandpaper

more updates as promised, coming soon.

**CRAIGGERS** · January 27th, 2009, 04:43 PM

awesome work man!!!
i love the new style! fresh!!!
ill see if i can post some of my new sketchs soon

aight man
miss you

gay.

craiggy

**RETEP** · January 28th, 2009, 08:53 AM

craig-thanks man, i'm looking forward to an update!

heres just a couple more...

this one has two layers, the image of the three figures is behind this one. the circle in his chest is the cut out.

blah blah

**RETEP** · January 30th, 2009, 06:30 PM

All of these images are from an entirely new and completed sketchbook. i am not scanning the majority of it, actually, the first image i scanned is almost halfway through the sketchbook.

here are a bunch of Don Quixote studies i did, trying to make an illustration...

i decided to make a larger version of this one, which i will post soon.

more from this sketchbook soon...
i swear it gets better.

**RETEP** · January 31st, 2009, 12:20 PM

well, i hope they're better...

heres some more recent figure drawing, i'm feeling a little better about it.
went a little crazy on her neck...

**jedininjaman** · January 31st, 2009, 12:30 PM

so much work man
and consistent quality to boot, thanks for sharing
there are some real gems in the last few likeupdatesthis one for example
keep it up man, you must be drawing like crazy to get this much out

**ChromaticCodex** · February 11th, 2009, 06:41 PM

The knight with the cloud stash is amazing :0 Also great girls with no eyeballs and handsome color studies. The composition on that black&white SP is stompin as well. Very fun concepts, keep rocking those large intestine!
