June Artist of the Month: David!

Dave

Dave

David is some guy who likes drawing silly cartoons, though most of his time is spent procrastinating with vidjamagames.

David began his life of crime around the age of 12, when he started doodling crappy, unfunny comic strips. He gradually moved on to filling sketchpads with various robots, random squiggly lines, and tracings from Pokemon comics. Eventually, he started a website on which he posted newer crappy, unfunny comic strips. That particular website is now gone, but those comics can be found on his deviantart gallery (http://davidfromtga.deviantart.com/gallery/).

At 15, David took a high school computer animation course. He fell in love with 3D, and decided it would be one of the things he'd like to do for a living. He's a certified 3DS Max animation technician (pending his college finally mailing the certificate) and working towards certification in Softimage XSI.

David has a new website/blog for general arty things under construction, at http://dave-terry.com, where you can see his latest artwork. His latest [del]monstrosity[/del] creation is a flash cartoon on newgrounds, "The Mattress Store," here: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/537856. You all should go watch it and vote on it. Like, 'cause it'll prevent cancer, or something. I mean, I don't have any proof of that claim. But there's also no proof that it DOESN'T cure cancer, so there's that.

If you'd like to see David's take on something, shoot him a request and he just might take it on.

Cajun got it right, was aiming for tentacle/alien mobster.

Working on my next flash short, a potential series if it garners enough interest. I may be needing voice actors for this one. Here's a excerpt of what I've story boarded so far, plus a rough draft title card.

I just finished writing out the screenplay to Ross & Craig: Pilot Episode. I'm pretty sure there's a ton of room for improvement and I'd really appreciate any suggestions anybody has. A writer I most certainly am not.

ROSS & CRAIG - Google Docs

Some parts are not as specifically detailed than others. Hopefully you get the right idea.

God DANGIT! Apparently Chilly Willy had a polar bear companion. My cartoon may be just a ripoff :(

If I remember correctly Chilly Willy's polar bear companion was usually an antagonist.

Plus, Chilly was typically a silent character.

To tell the truth Chilly Willy didn't even come to mind when it came to this project. I just figured you wanted an Antarctic setting using animals that are associated with those regions.
