Samus Aran, Metroid Hunter

Samus Aran is one of my all-time favorite video game characters. Everyone who played the original Metroid had their mind blown when they beat the game, only to reveal the main character was actually female. I became re-acquainted with the series with the Metroid Prime Trilogy that were released for the Wii. I loved seeing the worlds through Samus' visor. 

I'll have prints of this available for sale at the San Francisco Zine Festival.

To Boldly Go Where No Cat Has Gone Before - Star Trek x Cats print

Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Friskies. Its nine-life mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no cat has gone before.

I grew up watching Star Trek on television, catching it in re-runs. I recently started re-watching the whole series on Netflix. I'll have prints of this for sale at the upcoming San Francisco Zine Festival.

New Business Cards

Below: what the images on my cards look like in order.

I've just ordered my third batch of business cards from Moo.com, who do great work if you're looking for somewhere to get some business cards printed. One of the things I like about their cards is that they allow you to have as many different images on the back of your business cards as you would like. In the past I've put paintings, art from flyers and illustrations from other projects on the back. This time around, I wanted my new business cards to have something that tied them all together, while still being consistent stand alone images.
I decided to do a series of character art, and tie them all together by having them complete a walk animation. Here are my initial test sketches, I made a few small changes to the final characters.
