Topps Galaxy 7 - basecard artwork

Here are two pieces I made for the upcoming Star Wars Galaxy 7 trading cards set from Topps. The Jabba piece is done with acrylics and colored pencil on MDF board, Yoda was done entirely in Photoshop.

Topps Star Wars Galaxy 7 - sketchcards

For the upcoming Topps Star Wars Galaxy 7 trading cards set I've created 50 sketchcards as well as 2 basecards. I can't show the artwork for the basecards yet, but my sketchcards are approved, so here you go.

Snowy Girl

I'm trying out some new stuff and techniques I've been thinking about.

And what do we have here? The first piece of handdrawn animation I made in a long time! Could it be part of something bigger? Who knows?

Considerati

Here's a short film I just finished with Joost Lieuwma en Lukas Krepel. Joost did the designs, Lukas flexed his animation muscles and I did the backgrounds and some of the animation.
