Sensei Bear

Sensei Bear and Shawn Owl,

Two creations from Sensei Bernardo at the Zen kickboxing academy in Nepean Ottawa.

Sensei came up with these characters in stories that he circulated through the dojo's newsletter. After joining up in 2009 I read a few of the stories he wrote, and immediately told him how much I like the writing style, and how I thought it would easily be translated into a comic book format.

Then the wheels started to turn, I realized that that I've always wanted to draw a comic book and now I had access to about 4 years of great story writing to pick from. So we got together and pow wow'd, had some coffee, and now here it is,

"The Adventures of Sensei Bear"

This fella is a Ork from the far future. Higher level geeks will know what this guys all about, but for the rest of ya's lets just say that his metal jaw implant is bolted directly into his face...These guys are tough and mean, so don't forget, if you find yourself surrounded by a group of them, kill the biggest one you can see, he's probably the leader.

If you like sculpting, but don't really know what to make, start with an Ork.. i find them soothing to create. You really can't mess these guys up, they are really big, super ugly, and any part of them you don't like, just build something clunky overtop and blame it on surgery.

This is another WIP that I touch up every so often. I'm usually never happy with a piece till It's either perfect.. or I completley over-work it and ruin it myself. This is a piece that has come full circle at least 3 times... I'll be sure to keep this baby going and update with photos so everyone can see why it takes me forever to finish a sculpture. I reaally like that back-shot though, that im pretty happy with...for now...
