Lloyd The Rock'n Unicorn Opening!

Here's the opening theme I came up with for Lloyd. I might animate a short pilot. Maybe.

It's Lloyd the Rock'n Unicorn!

Lloyd got sick of living in Enchantus and defending the Enchanted Forest. So he moved to the real world to get away from that crap.

Autonomous Conflict Resolver Sketches

 So a few weeks ago I started thinking about the the drones that will be sent to Mars to attack and kill the rebelling colonists. I don't have any final designs yet, but I thought I would post some of the ideas I came up with.

Following the declaration of sovereignty by the Unified Colonies of Mars, all outgoing mineral shipments to Earth were halted. This action resulted in a sudden drop in revenue for the Consortium Off-World Mining Corporation. With their stock value plummeting, the board of directors enlisted the aid of Shlemmer-Hanoi, the Earth's leading autonomous weapons manufacturer to provide a quick, cost effective solution to the rebellion on Mars. Since ferrying enough troops to Mars would be far too expensive, Shlemmer-Hanoi's AUTONOMOUS CONFLICT RESOLVER (A.C.R.) was a practical choice. 500,000 A.C.R.'s were quickly dispatched to Mars to discreetly eliminate each  of the 100,000 colonists, (See correction below.) making way for a fully automated mining system to be implemented shortly after. Consortium Off-World Mining's board of directors expects a full rebound of stock value following the operation.


--Correction -Targets (Shlemmer-Hanoi prefers the term targets. Referring to Targets as "colonists", or "people" is generally bad for P.R.)

Still workin on it.

Another attempt at this character's design. I think I'm getting there.

Sketch

So I'm taking a break from exclusively drawing with my tablet, and got back to doing some drawing on paper. Here's a recent drawing of a character I'm working on for the Mars concept. I think her shoes are too big. Eh.

Martian Colonial Neighborhood

The last thing that I wanted to do when I imagined the modern colonies on Mars was to make them dark, confined, and dingy places where people scrapped by to maintain their livelyhoods on a cold, dry planet. This story will take place in a transitional phase of the planet's terraformation. A phase where one can go outside without a space suit, and in areas inside the colonial zones, breathe the air outside thanks to localized photosynthesizers and modified plants, suited to the Martian climate. I want life in the colonies to be similar to that of frontier life in North America, but with a futuristic spin. Life for the 3rd generation colonists is challenging, but not a constant struggle for survival.

BG Study

Another little background study. Trying to nail down a technique and style.
