Written by my good mate <a href="https://twitter.com/sizemore">Mike Sizemore</a> and his writing buddy from across the pond, <a href="https://twitter.com/bergopolis">Amy Berg</a>, Caper tells the story of four super heroes living together in L.A. who must resort to criminal methods just to get by.<br />
I've been lucky enough to be involved from the start, working with Mike and Amy to create the super-versions of the four main characters, along with a few gigabytes of other stuff for the web series.<br />
Mainly though, my job consisted of creating comic-style artwork that would depict any superhero action that was needed on screen.<br />
With the help of my brother handling the animation, we managed to get quite a bit done.<br />
As I say though, my role tended to be the go-to guy for artwork and some other on-screen elements.<br />
I'll be posting a few bits and pieces up here, starting with this poster artwork.<br />
You can catch all the episodes on Geek and Sundry's site, <a href="http://geekandsundry.com/shows/caper">here</a><br />

I sketched him out a while ago, but decided to fling him at the internet due to today providing the opportunity.<br />
<br />

Meet Tsomgo - a legendary tracker who wandered down from the East Himalayas one winter.<br />
He brought with him a father and son who had been lost whilst exploring an untouched parts of the mountains in bad weather conditions.<br />
He reportedly stayed with the man's family for the next couple of days, eating nothing but grasses, then, once confirming both the man and boy were on the road to recovery, he quietly returned to the mountains.<br />
He never spoke, but he did leave them with a crude drawing, hinting that mankind would soon be seeing more of the inhabitants of "His Kingdom".<br />
Periodically, locals have claimed to have been aided by Tsomgo (named after the lake he was first spotted near) in times of great need.<br />
Numerous expeditions have since attempted to find him or the "inhabitants" he once described - all to no avail.<br />
<br />
I guess if he wants to be found - he'll let us know.<br />

I've been drawing digitally for a while now, but I feel like I'm using the same techniques again and again. The Samsung slate affords me the ability to experiment with techniques I've never spent much time with in the past.<br />
<br />
In an effort to move onwards and upwards, I'm going to try a few things that challenge me and take me out of my comfort zone - starting with this piece.<br />
<br />
I wanted to have a bash at updating Frankenstein's monster. It's not a drastic redesign really, but it was fun to do.<br />
I've coloured my linework like I always have, but I'd like to try a version were the linework is removed. <br />
<br />
Anyway, here's the first version. I'll be updating this post with a newer version as soon as it's ready.<br />
<br />

I've never been able to find a good balance with the Wacom that would give me the quality of line I'd like to achieve.<br />In my mind, I'd always seen the inking process on this project being done by hand, but before I gave up on the digital version, I thought I'd give it a try.<br />The results were a little frustrating.<br />When the computer wasn't crashing, I was able to get quite a nice line quality, but the biggest annoyance was a very simple one - I couldn't turn the screen like I can a sketchbook.<br />It seems mad that such a simple element could cloud my decision as to how to progress, and no doubt there are many people who could instruct me in the ways of digital art, but for the time being, I think the next step is to try it the old fashioned way....<br /><br />In the meantime, here's today's progress.<br /><br />Step 1: Pencils<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhr6SewqdQ7Xm_N5nJVEPgbnr8cZNgfTxDvoRLSKD0y2rwyRqyFAZmDWYoBfoOzqYdnQ5jJsVRSOirk7wO2FzMYoXHuoFo5J5NM8z8TVX4wdbsmxb8PeaYBt5AF7ujC-JwqJUuOe7yPWT9m/s1600/Robofly_1_pencils.jpg"><img style="display:block;
