- Been working on this pic since August. Hope it was worth it, I know I'm pretty happy with it. RazBerri in her most hated attire, a dress =) Sitting on a Lamborghini Diablo RR. Don't worry, the hood is carbon fiber, it won't dent =) RazBerri is a character of her great cheesiness, Erin Vernon.
- 'stag rampant' Stewart's gone crazy! Currently my favorite logo design for my semi-official hot rod design/building company, Lunagen Labs. Going for a classic English/Celtic style, just need the right font. image © '02 Brian 'Marcello' Rogers
- Here's my semi-unnamed ram and Veronica holding up a railing somewhere. They look most excited.
- Why is Marcello such a happy fox in this pic? On his birthday 3 weeks ago a certain RazBerri-type purple wallabe agreed to let him be her boyfriend in real life ^_^ I wonder if Veronica knows about al this =P Thanks Raz, I've never been happier =) RazBerri is a character of the coolest person on the planet, Erin Vernon. Marcello is a character of her unworthy boyfriend, Brian Rogers =) Image © 1998 that Brian Rogers person.
- A very late welcome to ErinV! This is my half of our art swap. Every Australian mammal should have a Range Rover! A quick trip through the Outback with Raz behind the wheel seems to have brought a certain pair of foxes to a low state of being. RazBerri © the always wonderful Erin V. Marcello and Veronica © Yours truly
- A cool-looking scene direct from Replacement Killers. Almost. Not /quite/ done, but close. Veronica and Marcello fit the parts quite nice, eh? This was kinda fun to do, I might have to try it with Tron next =)
- Like replace1.jpg, this is a spiffy looking scene from Replacement Killers. This one less finshed than the other, but I think I'll finish it soon. Gonna need a freaking lot of graphite.
- Okay, for all you non-car buffs out there, the Walter Wolf on this bike is NOT the one Slappy Squirrel pummels repeatedly. This is another work in progress I hope to finish soon. Needs some tweeking tho.
- The deviant in person, doing devious things =)P It's me smoking the rear tire off my ultra-rare '85 Katana 750. My dissasembled car behind it and my brother sporting a bigidiot grin.
- I think someone musta insulted his ride. Marcello about to pull his Arkansas Toothpick on someone. Ouch. That's Burton Bell's tattoo there by the way. Marcello is mine, art ©2001 Brian Rogers
- This one isn't finished, but it's kind of a long term project and I thought I'd see what you guys think. We can all dream, can't we? Who knows, maybe they'll come true...
- Doodling and doodling... hmm... bad hair day?
- An experiment in perspective. I think it needs a Quake2 screenshot for a background =)
- Veronica's sitting again.. Seems to be a popular pose for her. Might be used in possible upcoming story of mine. Veronica ©Brian Rogers
- ..and a page of random doodlings. Not real sure who the girl with the bow is. Or what's going on in any of these...
- Ever wonder why Windows crashes so much? It's because your foot's on the keyboard!! Sheesh...
- Recent developments have left me with little desire to draw Marcello, so I felt inspired to finish up a character I started a while ago. He maybe become my new persona, but I don't even have a real name for him yet. This pic is directly inspired by my family crest which features a stag with a star in it's mouth. Seems some of my ancestors were the Robinsons from Scotland, thus the kilt. This is my first attempt, I know the antlers and stuff still need work ;)P
- I had to buy a model elk to help with Stewart's design here. I think he's coming along nicely. Elk dude in a black shirt.
- We picked up a killer printer and I needed to test it's vinyl-printing abilities, so I drew Mr. Robinson here and he now resides stuck to the back window of my truck. Inspired by the hilareous William Lawson's ads. Oh, if there's any furs in the Salt Lake/Provo area, drop me a line ;)
- And here he is posing with his '97 Corvette. Think he came out better in the other pic, but he looks so much more laid back in a t-shirt than the Braveheart getup. *shrug* So what'll get him more dates, the 'vette or the kilt? ;P
- Graphic example of the results of too much Half-Life, Limp Bizkit and Massive Attack...
- A larger rendering of my Stewart the Highland Destroyer model. Something like 3,000 polys. © 2001 Brian Rogers
- Some Stewart Robinson design sketches. The one on the bottom is the first sketch for the sticker I printed for the Syclone.
- 'Stewart Logo' Update of staglogo.jpg Restarted more or less from scratch. Just need to figure out how to get his kilt texture to bend to match the folds and curve of the drawing. image © '02 Brian 'Marcello' Rogers
- Yet another very long term project, stage 1. This summer, I'll find a '67 big block 'Vette like this at a car show so I can take reference photos to help with the shading. Kinda like the point of view thing here.
- It seems strange to me that we all work so hard to be live in comfort when all my best experiences in life have been under less than ideal circumstances. The other day, I planted myself in the tall grass behind our factory and just sat there in the hot sun, thinking. It also gave me a chance to practice drawing plants. BTW- I figured out a neat scanning trick while doing this pic, if anyone wants it, or any other Photoshop help, just e-mail me. © info on the pic.
- Just a little practice inking and pencil coloring. Hard to stay in the lines on a sketch this tiny... Original is just over an inch high.
- This is an excerpt from the end of a short comic I'm working on. It's probably the only part furry enough to post here. Hmmm, Viper vs. Syclone...
- Whee! I did something! Although my tablet conspired against me, forcing me to mouse-color this =P Anyway, this is just my little announcement that I got my new site up. Unfinished, but up. Go gawk at my weak HTML skills at www.rupelli.com ;)
- The Ocean is my favorite Zeppelin song and that sketchy stuff behind Veronica. Trying to get clothing to look right.
