As we're coming to the end of Plunderland development, we have a ton of cool artwork and we wanted a way to share this with you. So, we decided to throw together some iPhone wallpapers for you, and yes, we threw extra high-resolution ones for those of you with iPhone 4.

Drawing with Harmony

Harmony

We have been creating some posts recently about how you can draw directly online, it seems like this is starting to take off big-time.

Another drawing tool called "Harmony" takes your lines and then using maths creates links between them on the fly. It reminds me of iron filings, like an etch-a-sketch but way more 21st century.

I threw together this little spaceman using harmony, why not post some of your artworks in the forum?

WIP Space Illustration

I thought maybe it was a little much showing this illustration so early in its development, but then I thought, why not. It's been so long since we've actually been able to share things with you we should make it up some how.

So, this is part one of some kind of space illustration I'm working on. Right now there's no ship and that car was just plain lame-sauce so I decided to draw over it.

Left 4 Dead Characters As Bears

Left 4 Dead Characters As Bears

Awesome illustrator and friend of Johnny Two Shoes, minkee has drawn all four characters from the original Left 4 Dead as bears!

Zombie bear mod anyone? Incredible idea. We've already seen the Teletubbies in Left 4 Dead as zombies which is possibly the creepiest thing ever. The idea of mauling (see what I did there) zombie bears has got to be 10 times better than Lala, Po and the gang.

Drawing Without Reference: Zombie

Today I wanted to brush up on some Photoshop, I sat down and decided there and then to draw a zombie, record it and upload it. I did it without reference and thought it would be a an awesome idea for a series of illustration videos "Drawing Without Reference". This is episode 1!

After I finished my Zombie, I got caught up in drawing some text for it (check it out above) and then I got sidetracked editing the video in After Effects.

In all it's 8:30 of video, the drawing took me over an hour because I was trying out new stuff along the way and I haven't ever drawn anything like this in Photoshop before. I increased the video speed by 10 times so it's bearable to watch, I hope you like it!
