I've spent the past 4 years pushing through what has been one of the most challenging things I've ever done. I finished directing my first feature film entitled "Unicorn City". It's a romantic comedy that I co-wrote with my brother (and a lot of feedback from our father). The best way I can explain the experience is by saying it was like giving birth to an Alaskan bull moose. Nearly killed me and my family, but dangit, I love my bull moose and didn't want to put it down.

You can purchase the film at Amazon, ITunes, Blockbuster On demand, CinemaNow. It should roll out to Hulu, Netflix, and Zune in a bit, as well as Redbox. Check it out, I know you'll like it!
(Below are some life drawings I've done but never posted.)
I started drawing some of the models as caricatures to help me look for the larger, more simplified shapes. It was also fun to do something different for a change.
Every time I look at this one I hear a voice in the back of my head say, "Next time remember the arms. Arms are good. People like arms. Everyone will think he fell victim to playing around a wheat thresher."

Sustained pose, about 2 hrs. I like some things in this one.

30 min gesture... see what I mean! The moment I think I have more time I start noodling and it ends up looking like a pile and worse than the 15 minuters above. Aaarrah!
