Illustrator Astronauts
Illustrator is a very hard program to grasp at first but once you get rolling, you’ll start to make some really great things. I need much more practice and tutorials with this program but the results of my first fully illustrator image are decent I suppose. There’s still so much I would have done with [...]
Did You Have Your MoCCA Today?
Today was MoCCA’s awesome indie festival, MoCCAfest! It’s happening right now at the 69th Armory in Manhattan, New York. There’s a small entrance fee of $12 but that fee is your gateway to some real awesome quality comic art. Chromaengine headed off to the sea of the obsessed today to “check out the goods!” It [...]

Still it’s coming along quite nicely for what it is I hope. Thing is I’m starting to get this “Eva” vibe [...]
It’s been a while…
It’s been quite a while since the last time I posted anything here. Unfortunately I can’t disclose what I’m working on at the moment and I’ve also been super bogged down by classes. Speaking of something that’s taken a while, did anyone else check out Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn? First Gundam to be based in [...]
