Slugterra!

I'm going back and finding some art from the slugs I never posted.  Realizinf how much fun I had.  I hope they ask me back.

Update and an image, boy oh boy!

OK,  Hopefully from the last couple of years you know that I keep this blog updated often.  The first few weeks of 2013 have been enormously busy.  I will hopefully have work to show sooner rather than later but everything I am working on is under NDA and very Hush hush.

The life of a freelancer gets busy quick as since the last week in December I started working with Trendy Entertainment, Disney Interactive, Shadow Machine Animations, Bento Box, and one yet announced slug for Slugterra.  That along with the holidays and such it's been overload of awesome.  I'll be getting back to regularly scheduled blog posts with new art soon.  Still hard at work on the graphic novel with plans for a new website redesign.  Time to get serious with all my free time.....  I plan on doing tutorials and free comics (one a week storyline etc)  Not sure which is first.  I'll post some Fil n Mantis tomorrow from the graphic novel to prove I'm still hard at work.

I'll leave you with this:

Burpy.  The main slug from Slugterra.  We went back and forth many many times and although he looks very different in the show, we had a much more adult Burpy for awhile.  Some early explorations and the such. (and yes, Dave and Greg did so good on how they presented their concepts for the show I used the idea too)
Thanks again for stopping by and supporting me on the journey.

cheers,

Bean

Slugterra slugs

Yes I know, more slugs.  A smattering of the ideas and the final decisions.  Some are spot on and some of the designs get major overhauls.  I really wanted Crystalyd to be an older, senile, and blind tunneler but it didn't work out that way.  Thresher started with chainsaw teeth but the overall idea morphed.  I hope a gouled slug ends up with them teeth of doom... hopefully.

Slugterra! NOW ON DISNEY XD

So I've been working with Nerd Corps. and Disney TV on a new show that debuted Oct. 15th.  Slugterra.  Super fun and I thought they all did a great job on the show.  A pleasure to work with too.  Special thanks to Eric Calderon for finding me and bringing me onto the show.  And the rest of the crew Andy, Nancy, Rob, Ace, and company who were fun to work with on all the conference calls and meets.  I will only post slugs that have shown up on the official website.  More to come, promise.  Watch the show and hopefully we can make more slugs for a season 2.  Disney XD.  SLUGTERRA SHOW LINK 

More in the next few posts.  Also I will not show the countless number of ideas that we went through as that's still useable.  Meet me in person and I will have some original pages for sale.  I may have gone through 200 sheets of designs at least 6 a page.  Super fun.  Let me know what you think.
