Pin up update with Victoria vertuga

Thanks all for the great comments and requests for more pin up and nose art.  Jess Robinson, Penny Von luck and Miss Amanda Lee are all very happy with how the shoots tuned out, and they all love getting your comments here.  The next shoot is being scheduled as we speak with the lovely Miss Victoria Vertuga, and we are in the process of setting up our location at a place called the Proud Bird.  It is a very nice spot, and the surrounding yard is full of vintage WWI, WWII, and a whole bunch of cool 40′s, 50 through 60′s planes of fame.  I was a fan of Victoria’s pin up work for quite some time and just found out she is local to the area!!  Very exciting shoot in the works, and here are a few teaser pictures and the link to her website.  Enjoy and have a great weekend.

she really has a way of capturing a mood with her eyes

it’s a mish mash Friday

Howdy all, and thanks for the huge response and cool comments about all the Valdore posts!!  It is one of my favs and so glad to get all the feedback.  You never know how things will be received, especially when working on Star Trek stuff.  As a fan myself, it’s sometimes hard to see if what is happening on the drawing board is aesthetically right for the the show and it’s roots, and also be pleasing from an audience and Trek fans point of view!!  Very nice to get all the good and bad here and always an education!!!  Today is Mish Mash day only because of the heavy work schedule.  So with that, here is my very first Star Trek drawing done for Trek V, and it is a detail for the Bird of Prey wing cannon that was being built by Mike Joyce.  I was working in Greg Jein’s model shop at the time, and in a way Greg gave me my first art job.  HAAA!  Thanks Mr. Jein!  Next are two more pics from the scorpion model post from earlier this week, a robot concept for an ILM/Dreamworks project called XO that didn’t make it, and a bogus Magazine cover that had it’s roots as a DS9 piece of art.  OK, enjoy and have a great Friday!
