A world of Monsters

Watching cinema

I'm Kade Byrand and I have a totally healthy relationship with the Penguins of Madagascar

Hour sketch

So sorry for my lack of activity on here! Been mostly focused on work, but I still wanna share my stuff with you all. Here's a lil train collection.

#Pleinairpril Under Pressure

NYC design work for my penguins project

So sorry for the lack of plein airpril! Here's some fun plein airs I've done over the years.

Since everyone is talking about Madagascar, gonna state the obvious. I would not be an artist if it wasn't for those movies and the Penguins. They laid the foundation for not just my love for animation, but my love for art in general.

LA Days

Ecstatic with how work is going, but a lil sad I’ll have to put my Penguins of Madagascar project on pause for a little while. In the meantime, these are my favorite pieces I did for it.

Confrontation

And here are two enemies with very different histories in the Legend of Zelda series; Goriya debuted in the very first Zelda and stopped appearing around Ocarina of Time; Lizalfos debuted in Ocarina of Time and have appeared in practically every console game since.

boxd.it/Arw0 I don't even know what to say. I didn't know movies could be like this. It's a rare and wonderful experience when something makes you reassess an entire artform. I both want to listen to "Under Pressure" and never hear it again.

Lol so LA that my new job gave me driving directions for the offices, but not how to get there via transit.

Typical Penguin Habitat

For the new followers.

Little guide for how I make use of Blender, both for the Penguins of Madagascar, and in general.

Little bit of Kade lore. When I was 16 I got to meet the (movie) voices of the Penguins, including Skipper/ their creator Tom McGrath. I honestly want nothing more than to show Tom my penguins project. I can only hope he'd like it. 1/4

I unironically keep having nightmares that DreamWorks is like, halfway through production on a Madagascar property and it is too late for me to get involved. I didn't write a whole season worth of episodes for nothing man.

Sketch to final

Before and after

Making a post to shout out one of my favorite artists, @andreslmignucci.bsky.social He makes some of the most interesting and well thought out work I've ever seen, and he is able to do with color pencils is absolutely amazing. Definitely follow him if you haven't already
