Just finished my latest helmet design for Ryan - I really enjoyed working on this one because I grew up watching the cartoon!  "Form blazing sword!" Voltron Mask

As you can see, its been several months since my last post. I've been sporadically busy, and decided it was far too long since I put something up here.  So I am adding a few helmet designs I worked on over the past few months. One was for a young goalie who's playing for the Westchester Vipers.  The other is being worn by the goalie for the Utica Pioneers.

Finished up a helmet for a client a few weeks ago.  It was a Lexan plastic mask - a bit tougher to get the paint to adhere properly, but I picked up some Faskolor at the Hobby Shop in Mahopac, NY.  Great place - the staff was very helpful!  Here are a few pics: I have to say, it was awesome to dust off the airbrush again and do a little painting!  Hopefully I'll get more opportunities to do so soon!

Posted some new sketches on Fine Art America - they are a series of pencil sketches I created a while ago.  I had an opportunity to go up to the 5th floor of the Museum of Natural History.  It was pretty awesome for a dino-geek like myself!  While I was there I busted out the ol' sketchbook and went to work. paul-gioacchini.artistwebsites.com One of the pieces is entitled, "Sketch of Jane's Skull."  This one is actually a direct observational sketch from a different outing.  A while back I did some work for the Burpee Museum of Natural history(*). My dad and I flew out there to attend their annual scientific conference which they hold every year: "Paleofest."  Nothing but dinosaurs for the entire weekend... I was in heaven. Of course, I brought a few sketchbooks with me.  I had to draw Jane.  Jane is quite famous among rockhounds and boneheads.  She had been on tour for a while, but I got to sketch her while I was there.
