As I mentioned in the CF interview, I recently started a new job at Nickelodeon doing Character Design on SUPER SCOUT. Though I've done lots of freelance for Nick, this is my first time actually in-house. It should prove to be lots of fun, mainly 'cause the show is gonna be super-cool, I'm working with a bunch of old pals, and also because of this:
There's nothing like getting to play with an expensive toy on somebody else's dime. Of course, if my digital skillz don't improve over the course of this show, I deserve a massive kick in the nuts.
ahhh the sweet goodness of cintiq. Indeed a wonderful toy. Cool pic of the girl!
ReplyDeleteCintiq envy!!! Dang that looks nifty. Congrats on the new job. And let's see those Cintiq sqetches!
ReplyDeleteYowza! Congrats on the new job. I think they should have provided you with a 21" Post-It pad...
ReplyDeleteAhhh!! Lucky!! Cintiq madness, you better post LOTS of DIGITAL stuffs now! I want post it with pretty dress!
ReplyDeleteCintiq? Lucky!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new job opportunity and the new girl illo. Her hair RAWKS!
Oh, and of course, thanks for the sketch!!!
Nice stuff as always Mr.Battle and congrats on the new job! With you on the team, I'm sure SuperScout is gonna kick some major bootay!
ReplyDeletecongrats and love the girlie...sigh, she's hawt as the kids like to say.
ReplyDeleteI'll kick you in the nuts when I get there.
ReplyDeleteHey, Chris! Yeah- I heard you're coming aboard! I'll be sure to wear my metal athletic cup that day.
ReplyDeleteBut if you don't update your blog soon, I'm gonna kick you in the nuts.
awesome pattern on the girl's dress.
ReplyDeletefun toy.

Yes, cintiqs are indeed awesome. I worked on one for my last job. I'd have loved to take it home with me ;).
ReplyDeleteI love the woman illustration, awesome patterns on the dress.
Great stuff! It was nice hanging out with u for a bit last night, before we all got swallowed up by the crazy crowd at 6PH!
ReplyDelete-Kim (warren's short butt-white wifey)
It was good to see you the other night at 6PH. The girlie pic is pretty sweet! You're gonna love the Cintiq. I'm just jealous because I'm on a tablet PC.
ReplyDeleteJeez-o-man! I just saw Patrick Morgan got a new Cintiq on his blog! I'm so jealous. I have yet to actually even try one. I absolutely loathe scanning.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new gig! If you see Lambey walkin' the halls kick him in the nuts for me ;)
Nice chicky too by the way.
Ha! The new toy looks neat. Good luck on the show, sounds cool.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the ball-kicking gig and the sweet cintiq-goodness.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new job and fancy new Cintiq. Right on!
ReplyDeleteCute girly drawing too!
AWESOME girlie pic, her dress is hot! Love the textile design!! WOOoooo ... I never use a Cintiq before, how do you like it compare to a regular WACOM? :)
ReplyDeletecongrats! nice girl pic too!
ReplyDeleteI guess everybody likes the girlies ;) Thanks for all the congrats and Cintiq envy. If only I could afford to have one at home...
ReplyDeleteWarren & Kim- Good to see you and all the old CF gang! Wow, Warren, you posted so much new art on yer blog-- awesome!!
Brianne- Yeah, I still owe you a colored Post-It...
Boob- I give Steve-o a kick in the nuts every morning; It's kind of a "hello" thing. To his credit, he takes it like a man.
Alan- I've never had so many references to balls on this blog before. I've come a long way.
Alina- The Cintiq is WAAAYYYY better than the traditional Wacom. No "disconnect" between what you're looking at and what you're drawing on. I'm trying out Alias Sketchbook, which "feels" more like drawing. Now if they could only make it feel more like paper....
Paige- Congrats to you and the WUBBZY gang on the Annie nom!
Congrats on the new gig Chris! It was nice meeting you briefly today. I'll be sure to say "hey man, what's up!" next time!
ReplyDeletesweet stuff!!! love the pattern on her dress. Yes, I wish I had a cintiq too:)
ReplyDeleteSuper cool work on the girl pic man !!
ReplyDeleteloooooovin it all, chris!
ReplyDeleteCongrats. There are allot of talented people on that show. Can't wait to see episodes in the future. Happy Holidays !
ReplyDeleteCool outfit on your girlie pic. And good luck with the new job too (in that you dont get kicked in the nuts). :)
