Cooking the Serbian way, u pičku materinu!

Recently, I’ve been very much hilariously entertained by a video-blogger Danny G. that calls his show “The Gradual Report”, especially by “lessons on Serbian”. I think 90% of all Serbs with a sense of humor have seen it and laughed their asses off. After watching the latest “Serbian Lesson” I’ve been inspired to make an illustration as a gift to Danny, and the whole Gradual Report community that is quickly growing in numbers here in Serbia, and surrounding almost-the-same-language countries.

I’m not a painter, I suck at painting and don’t own a tablet/too lazy for mouse painting. If someone wants to paint this, please let me know so I can send you the 300dpi version.

Cheerz, u pichku materinu!

Poodle Sketches – Fighting the Swine flu!

Our poodle friend, Poodel, proves himself again! This time, he proves that he can fight the swine flu, the Poodle Way! So say hello to Puderu-san(it’s Japanese pronunciation of poodle, the way they’d write it if I’m not wrong) and his trusty katana. Don’t try this at home!

Poodle Sketches – Snow Diversion Poodel

Hello, your favorite poodle, Poodel, is back in a new sketch which will hopefully grow into a full-fledged illustration. I draw my sketches in a good quality, as they’re a basis for inking the entire drawing. I will move the signature, heading and Poodel’s thought bubble to another place, to avoid a compositional fail.

I’ve been very sketchy these days, so new sketches and illustrations are coming soon. Have fun!

“Happy Little Girl” – a vector illustration for sale.

Hello, everybody, all three of you ^^. Today I have a thing to brag about.
I just finished and posted a new illustration on GraphicRiver, an Envato Marketplace. I have put a lot of effort in this, and got a better – $3 value for single use licence. I was inspired by children again. Here is a preview watermarked image, and if you happen to need something like this, you know what button to hit! Personally I think this illustration is of a high standard, so I am hoping for more sales. Wanna contribute to that?

Click on the picture to go to the item’s page. You will be able to see other items I put to sale, only two of them for now.

I see dead Poodel!

Again, I’m randomly changing subjects. Here we see Poodl pretending to be dead just for the fun of it Inspiration for this came from a local horror-punk band called Drop Dead, and I’ll dedicate this to them, even though I never went to their gig…lol

Since I don’t have a tablet anymore, I had to return it to my friend, I’ll continue making black&white stuff until I die, or learn painting ^^ .

More sketches!

I’ve been a little busy with drawing these days. I bought some traditional drawing tools I haven’t touched in years, and I spend time trying to get re-aquainted with them. Not a big deal, I just bought a drawing pen/stylos and several watercolor pencils(since all art stores in the city are out of 24 pencils packs). Since way back, I’ve been inking my drawings with liners, cd-markers and similar sloppy-free tools, and drawing with a stylos is pretty different. Sometimes it is really hard, I feel like I’m back in art school, making my first steps in drawing and painting. I actualy really don’t know how to paint, and never painted seriously. Watercolor pencils are a good way to start, I guess. Go, Zile, go!

Here are two drawings I made yesterday, I really like sharing this stuff. In the first one, main character is Baby Poodle, and on the second one it’s already galacticaly famous Angry Little Chicken wielding a chicken-size halberd Leave a comment if you like this

Time for sketches!

Hello, I wanted to share a little something with those few people that will maybe read this blog a little more regularly. I am in a sketchy mood, and there are a few new sketches I haven’t shown to anyone. These are pencil sketches, and hopefully won’t stay like that for a very long time. Here they are, I hope you like them. Drop a comment if you do! Any feedback is appreciated!

Another attempt

This actually inspired a series of vector illustrations

Vector illustrations for sale, vol 1

Hi, these two illustrations are my newest work, and are available for sale on Envato Marketplace, and Graphic River. They are both made in Inkscape, my favorite vector app, and both took some time to make, even though they look simple. When I have more illustrations for sale, I will feature them here, hoping someone will buy them.

Vampoodle, the idiot of the night!

Meet Vampoodle, the idiot of the night! It’s a special kind of dog/vampire that feeds on ketchup, as it’s sensitive to blood. Beware, vampoodle stalks you in the night! Possibly to steal your ketchup…
