Dagona

This piece is for an upcoming challenge over at the Ten Ton Studios forum. The challenge was for a Superhero based on the work of H. P. Lovecraft and I thought I’d show a bit of process. This is the first time I’ve gone from finished “real” pencils to all digital inks. I’m really happy with the way it came out. I think this will be the way I’m going to do it from here on out. Inks where done entirely in Manga Studio EX. Color coming soon.

Color!!!!!!!

Warning: Fun Bits!!!

Just a few sketches from some figure drawing sessions I've attended. The most fun one being Dr. Sketchy's Anti Art School. Check it out at truthserum.org

Insane in the Bane Brain.

If you haven't heard yet, Bane is going to be played by Tom Hardy in the next Batman film along with Anne Hathaway as Catwoman. I was kind of shocked that out of all the great villains Batman has they went with Bane. Not really well known to non-comic fans. He seemed to be just another bad 90's marketing gimmick. I really hope Nolan plays up the criminal genius part and doesn't make him a hulking mindless brute like in Batman & Robin. This started as a doodle with a ball point pen. I was waiting for a friend to pick me up and I started playing with markers then colored pencils then paint an hour later I wound up with this. I don't think I've ever drawn him before. I like it. It kind of feels like I channeled my inner Simon Bisley.

Abominable No Man’s Land

A strip idea I’ve been kicking around in my head for a week or two. I was inspired by my best friend Chuck’s strip Goofy Love. Check it out for yourself.

Hopefully more to come. Comic con was a big blow to my ego and I’m just now getting back into the swing of things. Not the best attitude if I want to turn pro I know.
