Sketchbook Update

So I've been busting it into high gear to get the sketchbook/ character book done by the second week of September. To elaborate further, my goal for the sketchbook, a rather lofty one, is as follows: 60 character pics (most in the style of the entries previously posted), at least 6 different black and white illustrations, 5-6 actual character designs (turn-arounds, heads, poses), and some illustrated pages from a fairy tale. As to whether or not I'll reach that goal is uncertain. As it stands, I have two of the illustrations started and roughly 40 characters, though several of these may be cut in regards to their quality. The ideas exist for the character turn-arounds, but no progress on those yet.

In any case, hopefully I'll be able to reach this goal, though only time will truly tell.

Namaste,

Jon Jones

New Sketchbook

Verily it has been a bit of time since the last text post and as such, here is the latest. With AWA approaching at seemingly rapid speed, I'm working on putting together a sketchbook of sorts, filled with some of the people and work on this site and a whole lot of other, unseen work that will make its home here some time in the future. Also to be included, aside from my random people, I'm including a bunch of conceptual art and sketches from the story "The Quest for Imaginus Dreamer," a children's tale that has been relegated to the back burner until, well, until I get a better job. Some of you may recognize some characters from it as it is the next evolution in the tale of Luci and her stuffed bear, re-named Imaginus, or Mags for short.

I'm hoping this book will help get some of my stuff out there and into the hands of some of the right people, he says with typing hands clasped in prayer, but if not, hopefully it will at least succeed in entertaining.

For now though, it's back to creating and working, getting this book together as best I can.

Namaste,

Jon Jones

Grendel Baby

So I've been reading Grendel and I really enjoyed the sections of Grendel as a baby Grendel, hence the image.

Just some random stuff
