Funny Nissan Leaf Commercial




What if everything ran on gas?  I loved the concept when I heard about the premise for this soothingly hilarious commercial based on that question.   The scene with the dentist totally gave me the chills.  With any luck someone with a sense of humor and a soldering iron  will put a gas-powered iphone up for sale on etsy.com.

Got inspired



I got inspired to start this one a little while back after watching a great Kekkai Kotaki interview where he was doing a doodle that turned into something great while he was answering an interviewer's questions.  It was kind of a fun one as I didn't really have a goal in the begininning as far as what I wanted it to end up being so it took a few left turns and ended up being a big ass ship.

Not another one!



Last cave one for a while, I promise.  I was doing some problem solving with this piece, and trying a different approach based on using the magic wand tool on a photo to lay some initial textures.  Normally I would have painted over the textures a bit more, but I some of them ended up yielding interesting shapes so I decided to incorporate them more literally.  It's still a bit crude as I haven't really given much attention to softening the edges, but I think it got the job done.
