Behold….

29Oct08

Ahhh, Halloween….. I have a certain fondness for Universal Monster/Horror films, and thought, what better a way to sketch Halloweeny sketches than sketching sketches of of said Universal monster movie monsters, using a color palette in line with the black and white of the films said monsters hail from?
I’ll start with my favorite, and no [...]


Apologies

Sorry for not updating the blog recently, I’ve been having a some major computer problems. Hopefully, they’ll be sorted out by the end of the week.

This week’s drawing comes in two flavors, graffiti and graffiti-free.


WEEK 20: Meeow

01Aug08

This week’s theme is CATS! And being the person that I am, I thought to myself, why not utterly abuse this theme and do yet another Gotham City Denizen. And so, I give you, Catwoman.
Things I have learned: Just because I can recognize a cheese cakey pose, does not mean I can completely create it on the [...]


This week, is Two-Face week at the Bendis Board (http://www.606studios.com/bendisboard/showthread.php?t=157822). In the true spirit of our wonderful friend, Mr. Dent, this’ll be split into two posts. First up is a small sketch I did a while back of good ol’ Face .


Smile.

This week’s challenge (http://www.606studios.com/bendisboard/showthread.php?t=154657) is Darth Vader.
I expect this will be my last “live” post until I return on the 9th (though I have actually set up serval posts to publish while I am gone).

The concept here was, each image is of his eyes at different points, the classic helmet being the focal point.
Until we [...]


In honor of the early release party/presentation of Blake Bell’s Steve Ditko book…. A sketch of Steve Ditko’s Objectivist superhero, The Question.
Here you go world. I’ve got questions.

Initially I was planning on doing this in color but it seemed more fitting to leave him in BLACK and WHITE.
 


This week’s Benbo challenge’s subject is none other than Mr. Brian Michael Bendis himself (http://www.606studios.com/bendisboard/showthread.php?t=152027)


Week 5: Marv

17Apr08

Another week, another challenge. This week’s is Marv (http://www.606studios.com/bendisboard/showthread.php?t=148541) from SIN CITY. Out of all of these speed sketches, this one is definitely the one I’m proudest of (thus far). A slightly desaturated color palette seems to be the way to go with this style of inking (of course, since this was a SIN CITY character, [...]


Been playing around with inks….and decided to try going over the sketch of Nick Fury that I recently posted.

And while initially this was in black & white, I tried seeing how it would look in color. I’m leaning towards the black & white, since the colors are just the ones from the orginal sketch, and weren’t [...]
