CHILDREN'S BOOK ILLUSTRATION | 3D

paul-bunyan-illustration-childrens-book-illustrator-for-hire-CHILDREN'S BOOK ILLUSTRATION-3
The adventures
of Paul Bunyan



 

I got really inspired by Bobby Bare's song about Paul Bunyan and drew this cover
of a children's book illustration where Paul would be a mean character that learned
a thing or two about the environment.

Another song that inspired me is Johnny Cash's  version of "mean as hell".

Below you can see I produced a quick visualization of what the final hard cover book would look like.

Maybe it's a project for the future, who knows?

Concept art | Character design | Digital painting

concept-art-character-design-digital-painting



Digital painting and character design for the
Character Design challenge of this month.



Trying to achieve a different twist on a centaur character design, I came up with this idea of an
African looking tribal lizard slash dinosaur character design. This differs a lot from most designs
that represent traditional norse mythology styles or japanese styles.

In this example I noticed I'm getting closer to a digital painting style of my own, maybe developing
a taste for contrasting colors too :)

I used digital painting to produce a visualization of the character and its environment.

2D ANIMATION | FLASH CHARACTER RIGGING

2d animation
A chicken-eating elephant rig test.



This is a rig test for a personal 2d animation project of mine (and friends) and yes the
elephant is  eating a chicken.

The rig was all made in Adobe Illustrator and Flash, the main softwares I use for 2d animation.
All the pieces of the character have been added to symbols and interpolated and can be used in many situations.

The vector drawings were mostly made by THIS GUY and the character design was made by THIS GUY.

3D MODEL | CARTOON | GAME ART

Low poly 3D model for game art. From sketch
to final art, The 3D Knight rises!

This is a game ready model I made for a test in Unity game engine. This 3d model exercise was a lot of fun to do.

As I’m learning to use Unity I made this and some other 3d models to produce a small game with it.

Explainer video | Animation | Vector Illustration



AndonasRuas: It's a practical tool and different
way to buy clothes, having a new experience with
fashion. Ask, try and pay your orders at home,
taking the showcase into your house.



[gallery type="rectangular" size="large" link="none" ids="4116,4117,4118,4119,4120"]

A Challenge was brought to me with this simple explainer video project to be made in less than 7 days for a big event.

The idea of the client was to follow the process of how this great idea works in a community in Brazil (where I live). Although the character design
needed to be simple and straight forward, made almost in a complete hurry, the client got really happy and it was a lot of fun to produce this video.

This explainer video not only shows how the program works in this community of buyers and sellers but also how people can expand the network
by inviting other people and producing revenue from the purchases their friends make, All that helping ONGs in the process!

ANIMATION | CHARACTER DESIGN | EXPLAINER VIDEO

[youtube https://youtu.be/gBF_HFmO3qA]

MISSING ESOP: Film noir style explainer animation video
about ESOP companies directed at CPAs



This project is a very special commission from a client that wanted an explainer video animation with a different twist to it.

The character design and concepts in general are based on the movie "Double indemnity" and various other noir style productions.

Below you can see some screens of the video.

[gallery columns="5" type="columns" link="none" size="medium" ids="4154,4155,4156,4157,4158" orderby="rand"]
The background for this animation was made in 3d, enabling various camera angles and better ambiance for the scenes.

The characters and some props were animated in Adobe flash and shadow effects were animated in After effects.

As a whole this project was both fun and a great opportunity to learn new techniques.

Digital Painting | Concept | Illustration

DIGITAL PAINTING - HIRE AN ILLUSTRATOR - BLONDE GIRL

Totally super cute blonde girl <3 but
its a digital painting =/



This is a study for digital painting, mostly about subsurface coloring and character design. My idea,
(as I never did that before) was to make a super cute lovely blonde girl.

Don't ask me why :D

For reference I used This girl from this movie
and added some personal stuff to this illustration.
so It had to be an alternative looking cutie.

Does it look like someone you know? share it xD

Traditional art | T-shirt Art | Pointillism

imagem-11diamonds-are-forever-white-teediamonds-are-forever-black-tee

T-shirt art for a personal shop I had.
"Diamonds are forever, you are not"



I had a cool online store with custom designs for t-shirts, so I made a series
of Traditional t-shirt arts to add to my products.

This illustration features a more existentialist dilema as a punch line :)

I made several skull designs for t-shirts in pointillism and pencil art at the time.

See more in the Traditional art category.

To produce this artwork I used pencil sketches and Micron pens to create a shading effect in pointillism.

T-shirt art for a personal shop I had.
"I ain't gonna shave it"



I had a cool online store with custom designs for t-shirts, so I made a series
of Traditional t-shirt arts to add to my products. This is both a product and
an internal joke, since I had a huge beard and didn't want to shave it at the time :)

Character design | Animation | Samurai Robot |



Animation of a robot that just can't get
his feet together =/



I produced this animation for a character design challenge about samurais. Well,
not quite a samurai but somewhat inspired by the theme.

I would also consider it fan art for the Super Metroid reference right there

 Vector Illustration for a Children's book project



The client wanted a vector illustration and character design for her upcoming children's book.

In this work I developed a cartoon style for the character and chose the color scheme for the
entire story, keeping visual identity for the whole project.

The book is about a little dog girl that loves ballet! what can be cuter than that?
