It’s Afrodisiac, ya dig?

Afrodisiac's hammer

Afrodisiac's hammer

It’s Afrodisiac, ya dig? He is one of the baddest Mothas on the streets! This was a book that came out in recent months that is one of those once in a lifetime books. Long story short, it got my attention, it is a tongue in cheek set of story set like a 70 blacksplotation film, and it rocks.

This is actually an entry for a contest for some free swag from the creators of the book. I figured after reading it, Afrodisiac would be the only other one to be able to pick up thors hammer. now show some love

Ghost Rider

Ghost Rider

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

Sketch: GALACTUS WORLD DEVOURER

galactus

World Devourer, word.

I am Devourer of worlds, unstoppable and inevitable. I am nether good nor evil, i just am. my herald speaks for me, so hear him. i am Galactus.

He is one of the most odd charaters i know of, and his original incarnation is the only one i can thing of as true. They have tried to update, and make the concept a bit more… Real? but it never works. Galactus to me is a giant purple mofo, who eats worlds. he just is. and here is just me sketch of him. not sure if i will take it further, but i might. you think so? let me know.

Its a Turian, sucka!

Turian

Turian, studyed.

As you may be able to tell, i might have come across a copy of Mass Effect 2. I also might have been playing it for large streches of each day. I am really digging the game play and storyline. What i didnt care for about the first game, they fixed, while at the same time, keeping what i liked about the old game. If you have a chunk of your life free, i suggest you play it.

This was just to play around, to break from some work i was doing. i got some brushes and ink and had some fun. I am getting the feel of using a brush to draw with instead of a pen. I still love pens, but i can see the appeal of this process. for those of you that have played the game, this is not any character specifically, just me playing with the race of beings. I might concept some different styles and looks. Let me know what you think.

W.I.P Avatar Ang

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.

The Doctor Sketch

The Doctor Sketch

The Doctor Sketch

Its the Doctor! i have been watching a lot of the recent series, and even tho i don’t care for some of the British style of dramatic scenes, the writing for a lot of it is off the scale. Getting caught up on Torchwood, a Doctor Who spin off right now. its like The regular doctor, but with sex. Its a bit odd, but the Easter eggs and guest stars are great.

And Capt. Jack is a fairly interesting character. it is also funny how they try and write Americans… you just have to see it for your self.

But about the sketch. nothing is final, but i do quite like the goofy nature of  what i have so far. i may try for a more dramatic approach, or i may just keep it light. With the Doctor, you never know. Let me know what you think!

New Sketch! THOR

Thor and his hammer.

Thor and his hammer.

This is a Thor Sketch i cranked out at lunch. I am think about taking it further, but right now i am content with it being what it is. I want to do many more quick sketches so that get in the habit of working on this stuff.

I am not going to be so cocky saying that i will a sketch a day, or a week for that matter. Truly i will make a concerted effort to do work on a consistent basis. also i will try and use the hell out of those 5dollar words. Since Hero’s Con in Charlotte, i have decided to really push illustration and art to that next level. That next level is not necessarily a professional level, but just one more step above where i am at. Right now i think that all i lack is the grind of practice. the doing it until its second nature, like adding a drop shadow in that right place to make a Design client freak out.

To that end, to any who may actually read this blog that’s not my mom, suggest a character, i will do quick sketch lunch time stuff for free! you don’t get a big copy and it will be a small file, but hey, Inspiration is payment enough Right?

Wow. I just cant stop with the World Of Warcraft!

Yes, yes. I know I am among the millions of people who managed to play this little known game called World of freaking Warcraft. Been a fan of the franchise for waaaay to long. Decided to try my hand at doing some images I found pleasing from the game. I know, its lame but at this time, really I was going to Animazement in Duraham and had not seen any recent anime.

Figured there would be some crossover in fans. I was right but you know thats how things go.
