Batman WIP

Not sure where I'm going with this piece.  Lost a lot of action when the rendering tightened up, but still like it overall.  I think the near wall/building in the background is a bit too small, too--making Batman look huge in comparison.  The joy of working digital allows me to adjust this pretty easily, but I'm not sure this one is worth the effort yet.  We'll see.

Hellboy Study

Did this based on Mike Mignola's cover to Hellboy: Darkness Calls #1.  I'm a big fan of his work and hope to find something in it I can incorporate into my style.  I'd love to be as design oriented as he is, but frankly I'm just not that good yet. :)

Scarlet Witch

Still trying to get some "sexy" in my female drawings. They usually look too man-ish for my taste. Figured I would try using some ref to get tips. One of my main problems was my chest to hip proportions. Using the ref helped me see those better, as well as body thrust and general sexy posture, imo.

















































Added some tone to practice form, too.

Kitty Pryde and Lockhead

The Ten Ton sketch challenge was Kitty Pryde this week. I didn't enter because mine is digital, but I still use the prompt to push me to do things I don't normally draw. In this case, girls. I don't draw girls well. Never have. This is probably my most successful female without using tons of ref. C&C always welcome.

Congress of Night: Gordon

One of the characters from my project, Congress of Night.  Gordon, the troll.

Experimenting with more PhotoShop techniques.  Trying to find my style.  I'm liking these strong contrast pieces though, so we'll see where it takes me.

Silver Bullet

Last October, Brett Wood asked me to color the cover to Silver Bullet #2.  It's a very fun character and Brett is a good guy from the Ten Ton and Digital Webbing message boards, so I said yes.  Oh yeah, he offered me pay, also. :)  About a week later the job is done, I'm happy, he's happy.  Good times.  You can even buy it here (even though I'm not credited in the book due to an editorial error).

Now I'm working on the cover for issue #3.  Another fun one.  I'll post it when I can.  But, to hold you over, here is the cover to issue #2.  Enjoy.

Sons of Anarchy

A recent commission for a guy's wife for Christmas.  I never watch the show, but she's a big fan.  Obviously, heavy photo ref on this one.
