Bat attack!
Its the new batgirl! Had this commission come from Heros con, and i had some fun with this one. Not sure when they got a new batgirl, but in my research, i found that there have been many to wear the cowl of this character. i kind of felt i needed to maintain the legacy that came along with it. plus the costume was a bit cooler looking than anticipated. modern with a bit of old school.
love the pose, and the atmosphere. might have to keep trying to expand it a little more in my next pieces.

Hey everyone. It was a great year at Heros, had my own table for the first time, sat near some excellent artist, including Sweatybuffalo b.fowler. Had lots of great commissions, most i didn’t have a chance to get photos of, but here are a few.
if your reading this, and i did a commission for you… could you scan it in and send it to me? thanks!
more to come i hope!

is that all you got?
this was a little bit of playing around. I wanted to play with the light a little bit more, but i had to pull back because i kept messing it up.
Let me know what you think.

I am really syked about this one! I love venom from back in the day, and i was a little upset when they made some changes to the character, but now that i have warmed up to the some of the changes in appearance and character, i am really digging it! And when they introduced Anti-venom as non other than Eddie himself, i had a fan boy conniption! anyway, this is kind of a fun piece i have been working on. Enjoy!
also, if you have your favorite character or characters you would like seen, let me know.

MAD as a Hatter
Haven’t seen the movie yet, but a friend of mine did and almost instantly commissioned this image from me. It is a work in progress, i am going to color this, but i want him to be the first to see it. So for all those Alice in wonderland fans, enjoy. Also i do all sorts of characters from the movies/books, so hit a brother up!

This is a colored version of a commission i have done. I enjoyed it, Having to deal with the reverse of some of the common things, like really dark skin, and light hair. It was one of those things that kept me guessing. This is for a friend who is writing a story about this character.
Using the new inks that i am sure i absolutely love now, I found that more than every I enjoy working on real paper and ink. It is not forgiving at all, but it is very intimate. the one drawback is the scanning process, i just cant get it to where i like how it scans in. the real thing is so much more… real. go figure.
Hope you enjoy it as much as i do.

Flaming...
Not sure why, but i got it in my head to draw Ghost Rider. I love the way parts of this turned out, and on the other hand i hate the way other parts turned out.
Let me explain. i love the line work of the top, i hate the ink work of the bottom. it is one of the those problems that did not present itself until every thing was said and done. I tried to clean up the blacks in post, but i came to the conclusion that the wash like nature of the blacks added something. I think i need to work on my strokes a bit more(ha).
Well, for your enjoyment. here it is. Comments welcome

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.

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.
