Finished it! just some simple markers, it needed to be done. Its a little brighter and happier than i originally intended, but, what are you going to do?
This was a bit more difficult than i thought it was going to be. I kept having a charlie brown head! But in the end it all came together. Let me know what you think.

Ready to pounce
More concepting! are you not happy? I will explain more behind the concept when that information is available. And yes, this goes with the other image i was working on. feel free to offer up comments and suggestion.

Metal Beast
Its not Science, its Super Science! That is the something i learned from Rusty Venture’s Day Camp for boy adventurers. Anyway. This is some concept work, of which i cant reveal the full story behind it. super top secret stuff.
I am on the fence about what to do with it next. i am tempted to color it with marker, but i also might go ahead and do it on the computer to. Decisions, decisions. give me some thoughts, let me pick your brains.

The Last Air Bender
This is a small Work in progress of Ang. I am not sure weather to color it, or let it be. It is a show made for children, but it does involve a bit of violence. I always like to show that if kicked or punched in the face, that these charaters, tho young would be ready for the pain.
Plus it pushes a small limit.
colors soon to follow.

Victor Von Doom
You are in the Presence of DOOM! This is my loving tribute to Victor Von Doom. This is less is Techno master self, and more his arcane magic self. I might work on one that is more of the full attack armor and general bad ass-y-ness custom. Let me know what you think.
and for some reason, i now look at it and think he is holding some very potent cheese. I think he might be doing that, and it might be doom cheese. only the best for Latveria.

real american heros
Had a little flashback to the 80′s. My two favorite charaters in G.I. Joe. Snake eyes (which is every little boys favorite charater from then) and his opposite, Storm Shadow. Nothing cooler than Ninjas. Except maybe pirate ninjas. But i digress. Trying to play with the light abit. Ying and Yang as it were.
I may have gotten carried away with the black. but its all in good fun.
Next up, we will have some more concept sketches. but as always, hit me up if you want some commission work.

Skinwalker
Ah! Now that’s a man i wouldn’t want to fight. Wait, i don’t think that’s a man at all! This is a small concept of a character i have been working with. Also, i am excited, because i used the good paper to do this one. the lines are a lot more to my liking.
I may change some of the features, but this is basically the feel i want it to have. Also i have been getting back to BLACK… I realized in my haze of Laze… yness…. i have gotting away from building some deffinate shadows, and points of light.
More to come soon, let me know what you think.

Old Man
I was watching an episode of Kingdom with Stephen Fry. A quirky little British comedy. got to say i enjoy this show, for reasons i have not even come to understand. it takes you up and down, but never too far. Very British i guess. it was a scene that struck me as very well shot. so with everything i like, i stole that jank like it was cheese. just the composition really, to play wiht lights and darks.
These last few have just been done on the backs of crap pages in my sketch book. i didnt stress over composition. too much. at all i guess. just thought i would share.

LOB-STAR! Johnson.
Its lobster Johnson! From the Hellboy Universe, so if you might want to find out about it. I have been playing around pentel brush pen… the kind the all the greats use. pretty much i know these are sloppy, but its getting use to it. it flows like a brush because it is a brush! now on to our next commercial for things i use. or not.
I have been getting back to where i want to use a lot of blacks in my work. i find it fun and challenging to play with them, see what i can get a way with when i dont want to fully form something. i am sure there are offical art terms for it, but they escape me, because i am not a collector of words, just images.
and insults. i have a vault of insults that i go to when i really care for someone. its not every day you can accuse someone of being a communist witch in cahoots with the inquisition… and that is not even the most valuable of gems.
Let me know what you think.

lady pirates rock.
Its been a rough start, but last night i wanted to draw. Even though the proportions and everything are not spot on ( as you know i am a stickler for rules of any kind) i wanted to get back in to markers.
This image i just a concept for a new project i am starting. I will reveal details as i come across them. but never the less i am excited about where i could be going with it.
Next up we have DARK MAN. I ran across this in my book, having just dicked around at a convention drawing this. i felt it should never see the light of day, just like the movie. but as all things are, this must come out. besides, Liam Nesson could in fact be reading this, so he will know.
DARK MAN
BAM!
Some of the odd movies that managed to come out in the 80s and 90s have now started to come back to haunt me. i don’t know why. especially the action movies that used Ex-Wrestlers and Sports Stars as the main Hero. Two that come to mind are Rowdy Roddy Piper, who has aged extremely well, and the BOZ Bosworth. These movies, however bad are an influence on our lives, and we must stop and reflect… but not learn from our mistakes, (Marines movie one and two i am looking at you).
anyway, i feel a tribute coming.
