So, I'm starting my search for co-op placement and one of the places I'm applying to wants work samples. So, among the usual magazine layouts and whatnot I've also decided to include a collage of some of my sketches (Illustration and sketching ability were among the skills listed in the job description) so that means I've scanned a bunch of stuff...

Thanks, most of the positions are in design firms or printing agencies. I actually just had an interview on Thursday (Had to miss classes for the day to get out to The City) but I don't think it went very well; I wasn't very prepared and they weren't thrilled by my design work (Though they did think my illustration was excellent, too bad they weren't looking for an illustrator) but I did get some good advice from the men who interviewed me and I'm using what they said to fix my portfolio for my next interview.

Next interview's on Tuesday and I'm a little nervous after futzing my first one. Thankfully this place seems to be looking for someone a bit more illustration oriented so it seems a little more geared towards my skillset

That's an awesome idea! I'm not sure when I'll get a chance but as soon as my scheduale frees up a bit I'm definitely gonna try that,

Not dead yet. I'm back and I have some new sketches.

I've been copying poses and expressions from other drawings a lot lately as exercises, but I forgot to label which ones were which, so if you're a person who draws things and you see something of mine that looks like something of yours I am not trying to steal from you, I just have a horrible memory...

VILLAINS!

I present to you a group that seeks to antagonize our friends Felix and Lucy: The crew of the sinister Captain Claw...Well, they're less sinister and more jsut kind of jerks. Going counterclockwise starting with the big bearded fucker:

Grgd (Pronounced not unlike a gutteral growl): The chief engineer on Claw's flagship. He's a grouchy and gruff old codger with a hidden soft side. Being of the alien species known as Mamazons he has fantastic strength and size far surpassing that of a human

Tortuga: Claw's most trusted warrior. He joined the crew after being freed from the spice mines of planet Argot (And when I say spice mines I'm talking about things like Paprika and Cumine because the universe these bozos live in is retarded) when Claw's crew raided his mining camp. He decided he had one of them life debts to repay to Claw and has loyally served him ever since. Despite the life debt he's not above taking digs at his captain and always has a sarcastic quip ready when Claw fucks up. He's super badass and fights with a knife made from the tooth of a space shark. His hobby is sewing doll's clothing

Shmoadly: Claw's accountant and general sycophant. He comes from a species of frog like humanoids. He's in charge of managing the finances of Claw's armada and is always concerned with profits and figures. However he knows who's in charge and will always comply with Claw's wishes no matter how ridiulous. Despite his small stature he's an excellent fighter thanks to the inherent abilities of his froggy species: He can jump many times his own height and move at crazy fast speeds.

Nng Nng (Pronounced not unlike the sound one makes when gnawing on a bone) aka "Nin": Grgd's peppy and silly teenage daughter. She might be a little ditzy but she's always in the best of spirits. Due to her mother dying when she was just young Nin has accompanied her father on Claw's crew since she was little. She helps him out in the engine room and does odd jobs around the ship. She's sort of a general morality pet for Claw and his crew as they're all very protective of her. However it's not like Nin needs much protecting: Despite her petite frame she's even stronger than her father and can rip apart a bulldozer with her bare hands. She loves fashion, dancing meat.

Captain Claw: The leader of this group; one of the most feared space pirates in the galaxy he commands an armada of space ships and has almost a thousand men under his command. Despite this he considers himself a man of intelligence and class and loves classical literature (particularly from his homeworld of Earth), fine dining and music (He is quite skilled at the piano...Though only at pieces that don't require him to use his right hand very much). Unfortunately Claw thinks a bit too highly of himself as he's quite vain and pompous and tends to belittle those around him for what he considers their inferior intelligence. He's also a bit of a germaphobe and hates to be touched. Despite his neurosis' he's a powerful combatant thanks to his already prodidgious strength and the various mechanical pieces integrated into his captain's outfit. For some strange reason he's taken quite an interest in Felix and Lucy and will stop at nothing to fulfill his nefarious plans involving them.

Neat lookin' bunch. I like 'em.
Just two kinda trivial things that stick out to me.
Grgd looks tough, but I don't get a villainous feel from him.
Shmoadly looks like the first evil ex from Scott Pilgrim as a midget.
>> No. 38277
>>Grgd looks tough, but I don't get a villainous feel from him.

Hmm, you've got a point. He's mostly only villainous because of who he works for, to be honest. I'll have to work on this...

>>Shmoadly looks like the first evil ex from Scott Pilgrim as a midget.

I noticed that too, which is really weird because I came up with him years before I read Scott Pilgrim and his design has remained pretty much the exact same since them.
