Hey there kiddies... sorry this posting is more of the photo genre, but at least there are still drawings in it! I just wanted to let you all know I'm workin away at getting the Agent Orange story done for POPGUN volume 4. I thought I'd give you an inside look into my little world of back aches and wrist cramps!

I also wanted to give you guys this link from an inspiring article entitled - 7 Creative Principles by John Lasseter. Very good advice. Have a great weekend everyone!

    dude good luck with the Popgun thing. I love the character designs you've got. Also, many thanks for the "7 creative principles" those were really helpful as well.

    As for the brush I used to make the drawing. It's just a photoshop square brush that is rotated to sit at a 45 degree-ish angle. Then you make the size pressure sensitive and add a little spacing to it. If you don't get the desired results I can just send you all the brushes I use. Let me know man!

    Oh, and let me know if you're using anything cool and exciting!?

    take care,
    -Tamte

    Whoa, thanks for posting this. I had a chance to interview JL and the best question I could come up with was, 'what inspires the sincerity in your films.' Reading this makes me wish I had a second chance to ask questions :P

    *SIGHS* It must be such a bless to be working in Pixar. All of its employees must be very happy, drawing all day long, having fun and singing aloud with lots of bunnies and brilliant flowers! XD

    In the other hand, these pictures are so epic! Orange is already a hit to me... plus, I envy your bookshelf to the gut!

    Every time I see another artist's workspace I drop everything and go tidy up my desk, just in case someone drops by and wants to take a picture. Good looking stuff on the desk!
