Dungeoneering101 Challenge – Jeremy D. Mohler

Hey folks! Wow, how the time seems to fly these days. This last month has been incredibly busy, which put me way behind schedule on my challenge piece. But, I managed to sit down last night and spend some time on this. It's another pretty sketchy piece and as far as these little experi

My jumping off point was Botticelli's The Birth of Venus.  Clearly, I covered a lot of subsequent distance. I’ve dubbed the piece, Birth of the New Queen.  I started out making a number of doodles of eldritch abominations and Cthulhu sketches before landing on the final concept.  It’s

Hi folks! Better late than never, as they say. This month's challenge was a tad difficult, even when it seemed tailored to my skills at drawing machinery and technology. It's the fact that I draw science fiction so often that had me wondering how could I come up with something original amidst

There is actually a sizable robot collection occupying our kitchen. And a growing collection of robot ornaments on our christmas tree. Which is to say, we like robots. I'll probably be spending most of my challenges on pure character design, because that's the most fun ever.

I'm running a little behind this month, mostly due to the fact that my wife and I just had another little girl. She just turned a month old, already! Anyway, juggling parenthood with freelance work and teaching has left me without as much time as I generally prefer. Plus, robots are a littl

I started out doodling a spider inspired robot until I suddenly realized it looked an awful lot like something out of The Matrix.  That got me thinking about movie robots.  My mind quickly jumped from Robby the Robot to one of the most sinister movie robots of them all. "It's a robot. Ash is a go

  Remembered too late last night that it was my turn to post a challenge. Few things; not a huge robot fan, so it gets a little difficult to conceptualize one without a guiding brief.  Played around with a tank-robot and a saber-tooth tiger based robot before I got frustrated and whi

You might notice something familiar about this piece - it was based off a sketch that I did for a previous challenge. My wife liked the piece really well and I'd been wanting to make a special piece just for her. So, I went ahead and took that original parents/children challenge and figure
