Your ideas are cool. And you have a good grasp of general anatomy. Some of your lines are lacking confidence, though. I also like the energy and personality of them as well. Looks cool :)

[BorgMan]

Sean, what kind of materials do you use while sketching, next to pencils? Is that paint or so?

[Dark Saber]

Sean, what kind of materials do you use while sketching, next to pencils? Is that paint or so?


I sketch with ballpoint pens, and sharpies. As for the Grey and color sections those are berol markers.

[BorgMan]

*Berol markers*... I've heard that name before. *Runs to drawingshop* How long do those things keep functioning? I don't mind investing money in it, but seeing as how my black felt-tips gets abused by the space sceneries I make I really want to know...

[Freak]

as always looking dam fine. Where do you get your ideas form?

[Firelode]

Nice work I like the comic style very crisp and clear sketching, you've got a good idea what you want before you draw it which shows through in your dynamic poses. Very enagaging.

I well I have seen them at stores like Micheals, Hobby Lobby, and I have even seen them at Office Depot.
But I originally bought mine when I was in art school at a store called
Seattle Art Supply. I still have some of my original markers, but had
to get a few new ones a few years back.

[davidvincent]

Your Sketches are awesome.

They look like they have been done for a movie or a video game.

Very Cool!


I don’t have the ba**s to post my stuff, as they look like they have been done by a drunk chimpanzee that has been blindfolded, spun around a 100 times and held the pencil in his left foot while in a dark room.

People say I criticise myself to much, I don’t see where they are coming from.

[Dark Saber]

I was in a Superman kinda mood and sketched this out while watching
Rockstar Supernova lastnight.
http://home.earthlink.net/~stourangeau/Superman70506.jpg

[Freak]

the man of steel looks Cool!

[Nick]

Nice variety you have there Dark Saber. Good stuff.:)

[Dark Saber]

Here is the next character that i am developing her name is Deshi
(Japanese for apprentice or student). I will be finishing her up in Illustrator like I do with my Trek Characters.

http://home.earthlink.net/~stourangeau/deshisketch.jpg

[Freak]

She looks very interesting a female version of samurai form X-Men.

[Dark Saber]

Here are two drawing of two of my favorite characters Backlash and Knightcrawler.

I will be adding more sketchbook pages later today.

Not really, but I know what you are talking about. I will have to make sure
that her sensi doesn't look like the Silver Samuri.

[Choo1701]

and the Darth Maul is excellent :D

[Dark Saber]

Thanks

[Choo1701]

also: how did you sketch all the muscles?

[Dark Saber]

Those were done in color pencil, then I overlayed a piece of tracing papere and did a ink outline. I forget what book I was refrencing at the time. I had
checked it out of a Library and loved the referencematerial that was in that
book. I am still looking for it in a second hand store.

[baptiste11]

Wonderful job, congratulation !!

[Freak]

great stuff. you can see that your skill have improved over the years.

[Dark Saber]

Thanks, It is kinda weird to look back on some of my early stuff. Espically the Pre-1994 years before i went to get formal art training.

[Dark Saber]

Here is a example of what i do everyday. I am a Graphic Designer for a National Advertising Company.
I do everything from Ad layout to Logo Design. Every once in a while I get to create something fun for
a customer. This is an example of one of those times. The Client wanted a cartoon/ animated style
bullfrog for their company logo. This is what I created. It took about three hours to create.

Created in Adobe Illustrator, filter effects done in Photoshop.

[Freak]

man the forg looks cute! :lol:

[Dark Saber]

Here is another pen and ink sketch of Venom that I did this past weekend. I add a few Photoshop filters to it after I scanned it in.

[ebonfahd]

Looks great. Reminds me of a sci-fi RPG campaign i was in a couple months back.Great job! :thumb:

[ChuckyB88]

I hate to sound like a geek but is the guy with a eye patch and gun meant to be Nick Fury from the marvel universe?

[Dark Saber]

No Nick Fury here. I think you are refering to the quick sketch of my mirror Will Riker flipping the Bird.

[Dark Saber]

Coming tomorrow Sketchbook dump Circa 2002-Early2003

[Freak]

looking forward to it! :D

[Dark Saber]

Here is the Sketchbook Dump for the Years of 2002-2003

[Freak]

nice Sean. The way you set out these Sketch, reminds me of a storyboard. Have you ever through about doing one?

[baptiste11]

Superb job Dark Saber ; wonderful work !

[Dark Saber]

Here are a couple of things i sketched up last night.
http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/Sketch822.jpg

[Freak]

nice any universe in mind, for that top ship?

[Masterjedi]

That one is kind of for my universe... I started some 3D work on my own but Sean (Dark Saber) has been great at providing concept work and since he started that, i have had a much easier time developing the 3D look... Does that sound accurate Sean?

Pretty much anything you see with that little star logo goes in the "Harbinger" universe. I am actually starting on the larger carrier from page 2 right now.

Right you are MasterJ. I have been creating all kinds of stuff for him, or he looks though one of my sketchbooks and says "I want that one".


Besides the Titan, he has created the Vulture and a few Probe Bots based off of my designs.:thumb:

[sovereigngw]

Your work Sean, just keeps on amazing me. Keep up the good work man.

[Freak]

By the sound of it you two have a great working relationship. How pocket book given a lunch date for the next book? I for one are dying to see a better pic of MasterJedis model of your Titan.

well keep an Eye open in the 3D WIPS in the coming weeks. MasterJ is currently
reworking the upper sections of the saucer and secondary hull.
The bottom is complete since that is the view that Pocket wanted, so he did
not concentrate on the upper side of the ship.

[Freak]

excellent will be doing that!

[Dark Saber]

I haven't had much time to draw this past week, but here is a marker comp of one of my characters that i did last night.

Enjoy!!!

http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/Scorp9106.jpg

[Freak]

Nice, I see him has Riker now through.

[Dark Saber]

Nice, I see him has Riker now through.

Actually this character was part of the Primer for Cap. Stone.

[Dark Saber]

Here is a quick marker sketch I did last light of Bumble Bee. In this sketch
I decided to go more towards the the head that the Toy had in the 80's.

Next to his vehicle mode is Tracks in his hover mode minus his wings and missle rack.


http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/Sketch90606.jpg

[Freak]

[Dark Saber]

Here is a batch of robot and Sci-Fi helmet designs I doodled out in a meeting.

[Dark Saber]

http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/Prime-Sketch.jpg

[Dark Saber]

Here is a series of TOS BSG sketches that I did, that I may do full color pieces on. I am a fan of the new BSG, but like a lot of people out there
I was a big fan of the Original since I watched it as a kid.

http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/BSGTOSSketches.jpg

[Freak]

Nice I love the TOS BSG stuff, you got anymore?

[Dark Saber]

Nope just a few Battlestar designs, and a not so good Baltar sketch.

Is that a suit of armer, or a robot? If it a suit the legs are a bit on the small side, going the guy next to it.

[Dark Saber]

Is that a suit of armer, or a robot? If it a suit the legs are a bit on the small side, going the guy next to it.

It is a robot. Amazing-labs wanted it to have the big broad
shoulders and arm with slim legfs and waist.

[SDGreywolf]

Sean,
As usual, sweet work...Really like the original BSG work

[Dark Saber]

I have been asked in the past if I have ever
done storyboard art. Well here is something
I created as a team project back a couple of years
ago. I is a storyboard layout for a fake 30 second
coffee commercial.

I am still looking through my art archieves for my other
storyboards I created for a animated short. As soon as
I find them I will post them.

Here is my latest batch of sketches done over the last couple of days.

[seanr]

That mirror universe Spock is pretty cool.

[Dark Saber]

That mirror universe Spock is pretty cool.

You got it. Since i am working on a set of samples to send off to IDW I have
been sketching the main Mirror Enterprise crew.

[Aresius]

Nice stuff on the scene grab...

Mirror Spock's great indeed...
Looking forward to see Evil Chekov, Cruel Bones, Dangerous Uhura and Mad Scott...
Um question: If they're evil, what about Kahn? In OUR universe he was evil, but according to the general idea that a mirror universe also mirrors the intentions, he would have been good...
What about making a Flower-Power-Kahn? :lol:

I just read the First Mirror Universe book that Pocket released, and they still have Kahn as an Emperor of earth back in that earths 20th century.

I tend to go with the Mirror universe is not exactly opposite to our in
every way.

Like in my Dark Mirror work an Exiled Kahn and followers where found
ala space seed by the original Reliant not Enterprise. There he took over
the Reliant swayed the crew to his way on thinking and they in turn
took over the Empire and made it stronger.

[Aresius]

hehe... actually this was only intended as a joke... ;)

But as said, I'd like to see more of the crew...

[Freak]

That a great evil Spock!

[Captain J. Wesley]

*jaw drops* all i can say is... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


PS - DO you take requests?

[Dark Saber]

Here are a few sketches from my sketchbook done this week.

[Dark Saber]

Here is a sketch of my favorite X-character Wolverine.
I tend to draw him in a variant of his old yellow uniform.
I have never really warmed up to his new one.


http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/Wolvie.jpg

[Freak]

Can I just say that I hate you.

But you always see him using the claws. I figured a sword would work this time.
I have seen him with a sword a few time when he is in Japan but that it.

[Captain J. Wesley]

When I draw mens hands they look to woman-ee. ANd iI fail at drawing muscualr guys. I tend to make most male characters of mine... erm.. whimpy :p

I wish I could be as good as you! O well, in due time.

[Dark Saber]

Thanks, Just keep practicing at it, and you will get it.

[Dark Saber]

Here are some sketches from the week of 4.22.07 to 4.27.07

Enjoy.

Since I have found Brett Booth's deviant site, he has inspired
me to sketch out one of my fovorite characters that he used to draw.
This character also happens to be my favorite
Wildstorm character.


Here is my take on Backlash.

http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/Backlash.jpg



Okay I am know going to be on vacation next week, I will post more when I get back.

[Dark Saber]

Even though I was on vacation this past week,
I had a few chances to sit and draw.


Here are a series of 10 - 15 minute marker comps
of a few Sith Lords and a Fett.


I really enjoy the new Dark Horse Series
Legacy, so that is why I drew out a few of that
series' Dark Lords.


Enjoy.

Thanks, Jango was the only one I did not have references to use at the time.
All by memory on him.

[Dark Saber]

Here are my first attempts at any of the Harry Potter Characters.
Each took about 10minutes to sketch.

http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/GoldenTrio.jpg

[SDGreywolf]

"The Sith and a Fett"...Kinda sounds like a local band playing at your local bar on Tuesday and Thursday nights.:lol:
Sean, excellent work as usual, kudos all the way around.

Here is my take on the Slimmy Potions Master of Hogwarts.

[FrostRaptor]

Your Youngblood pic is missing that Liefeld signature: miles and miles of teeth!! :D

Seriously, though, the pix are bad-ass. I never could draw people...

[Hellsgate]

Dark Saber: Very cool "scifi-trooper". I could see him as a "Batman Beyond" era reincarnation of "War Machine" or perhaps Spiderman's enemy "Scorpion".

As always, great stuff Sean.

You guessed right.

You have a space fighter, a misc Transformer Idea, a group
of Alien concepts. And the last two are prelim sketches for a
project I am working on for Fractalsmith They don't want the
finished pieces posted, but I figured the prelims were ok.

Well as of tomorrow 5.20.08 I won't be able to draw for a while due to the fact that I have to have surgery on my drawing
hand to fix something that happened back in November when I was in a bad car accident.


So here is a batch of sketches drawn over the past week to hold you over with until my doctor tells me I can draw again.

Well During August and September I haven't been able to draw as much as I would like since my wife and I just moved
from our old house with bad neighbors to a new house in a
nicer neighborhood. but I did get a chance to doodle in my sketchbook from time to time. Here is a few pages.

[cavebear]

Hey there,

I really liked some of the ships in the last picture you posted. I'd love to see the ones circled explored a little more. They are very cool designs :)

Thanks, I may just work up a couple of them.

[Dark Saber]

Just a couple of character sketches along with my favorite x-men after Wolverine, Good old Knightcrawler. I like
his original uniform verses any of the newer ones.

[Rook2Bishop]

Very nice.

A couple of questions for you Dark Saber (I'm hoping you can share your knowledge), what kind of scanner are you using and what settings are you using on your scanner to scan the images in?

I've recently picked the pencil back up and I am trying to find the optimal settings on my scanner to scan in my images (without much luck).

[Dark Saber]

Here is a set of sketches done while watching TV tonight.

I plan on completing the ninja mouse to a full color images. for now enjoy these.



Sean

[Freak]

Looks like your going in a different direction on the Ninja mouse, from what you posted before.

[Dark Saber]

Well the old shots of him are going on 9-10yrs old. I thought I would revisit him, plus I have been getting a few requests from companies that want to use him. I am trying to figure out what I want to do there. I don't want to loose
the Creator rights to him.

[Dark Saber]

Here is another example of some art that I create during my day job. This was drawn an colored in about 15minutes.

Handrawn, Handinked, Scanned into Illustrator CS3, Live Traced and Colored in Illustrator.

:eek!: DUDE! I wish I could only draw half that good. Even that would already be a great deal...
Impressive.

[Dark Saber]

Here is my first ever atempt at drawing the Flash.

I know he isn't running, but I never drew the uniform before.

My friend Ellery A.K.A. Masterjedi asked me to sketch up a hybrid/ Concept Race VW Beetle based of the classic Beetle, not the newer style. He is creating turoials for Modo (3D Software he used for the Titan), and
he needed sketch art for his students to use to build from.


Not perfect but what do you expect for about 45 minutes worth of work.

Yes this sortof has a Transformers G1 Bumblebee toy feel to it, but that is what I alway see in my head when I draw a VW.

Also here are a couple of quick warm up starship sketches as well

Enjoy.

[Dark Saber]

Well get ready this is a big update.

(These are the last few updates all in one file.)

Here is my sketchbook for the last month
and a half.

enjoy.

I am a graphic designer for a advertising firm by day and a freelance Illustrator/ Designer by night. So you can say I get to be a little creative from time to time.


I'm glad you enjoy my work.:thumb:

I seem to be in a Tranformers frame of mind this week.

Here is a sketch and Inked Drawing of my favorite
character of all of the Transformers.

I updated Bumble be into a sport VW Bug.

I love the TF Movie Bumblebee, but to me he will always
be a VW of some sort,



Pencils and Inks by Sean Tourangeau


Colors to follow next week.

http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/BumbleBee2009.jpg

[Freak]

Nice.

Same here He will always be a VW to me, it a shame that VW would not allow it in the film. which is why the film Bumblebee slams his door into the yellow VW on the car lot.

it was the film maker basicly sticking two finger up at VW.

[<:K.I.S:>]

WOW just wow i wish i could draw like that.:thumb:

[Dark Saber]

Here is a quick drawing that I did last night in my sketchbook. Geordi I think I got, but Data looks a
little off. You can still tell it is him, but I didn't put a
whole lot of time into this one maybe 30-40 minutes total

With the New Trek Movie coming out soon with the Classic Characters recast. I figure why not do the same with the Next Gen Characters.

Here is a quick sketch of Terry O'Quinn as Captain Picard.


15 min Sketch By Sean Tourangeau


http://hammerheadgraphics.iwarp.com/New-Picard.jpg

[Dark Saber]

I know that o'Quinn Play Admiral Presman in a TNG ep, But I am going the JJ Abrams route and going with a ReBooting/ Alternate Reality take on this.


Also Remember M.A.S.H's Actor Harry Morgan played a differnt character before being cast as Col. Potter.


Any way this was just a fun sketch.

[Aresius]

Pressman.. Pressman... Oh yeah, now I remember, right...
Uh, you've got to be kidding!

Then again.. Abramswise... Yeah, he might really do that.

[Dark Saber]

Gooooood, my apprentice. :D

Nice work work here, mate. I actually wonder how Seven would look in your Dark Mirror universe. I actually think along the lines of the "Living Witness" version.

[Tovette]

Your Data is pretty close! Almost like a cartoon version of him but all the lines suggest his likeness. Nice one! :)
