ATOMIC ROBO and NIKOLA TESLA circa 1927
Working on a piece for the new and improved ATOMIC ROBO: LAST STOP. Very excited about debuting the new trailer alongside the ROBO kickstarter. This is a photo that will appear on Robo’s desk in a montage shot.
Six Panel Cinema Presents: BONNIE AND CLYDE
My newest Six Panel Cinema for Ms. Karyn Pinter. You can buy prints right here!
The Red Viper vs. The Mountain page 1 of 3
I asked the Game of Thrones community over at reddit.com to vote on what character they would like to see illustrated. The overwhelming response wasn’t a character but a scene: Prince Oberyn Martell vs. Ser Gregor Clegane. The Red Viper vs. The Mountain. What I’ve got here is probably one of three pages I see for this scene. A Storm of Swords, the third novel in GRRM’s opus A Song of Ice and Fire is so far my favorite. George has me digging fantasy for the first time. This page is spoiler light, but the next one won’t be. Stay tuned!
TRUE ROMANCE
We offered Six panel cinema rewards for our FUBAR volume 2 Kickstarter campaign. This is the first one I’ve gotten to and I had a blast illustrating it. Michael McDermott selected for his reward: True Romance and I’m glad he did. This is on my top 10 favorite movies list. A superb cast with a few cameos that don’t steal the show, but they up the ante pretty hard.I’ve watched it on repeat all day as I crafted this piece and it’s still ringing my bell. Stay tuned for the next four:)
ZOMBIE KNIGHT
These are the inks for a pin-up that will run in the ZOMBIE BOMB anthology. I’ve never drawn a Knight before but after the fun I had on this one I think I will draw some more. Stay tuned to see the finished color piece here soon.
THE LEAGUE OF OBSCURE HISTORICAL FIGURES
SO once again Mr. Rafer Roberts is organizing his now 3rd installment of the DC Conspiracy’s free comic/newspaper: THE MAGIC BULLET.
I contributed the art for this one pager written by Mr. Jeff McClelland poking fun at Alan Moore’s League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
They hand these bad boys out in the DC Metro area so keep your eyes peeled as they also end up at finer comic shops nationwide.
ROUGHS!! Process blog 2 of 4
The second stage of my process involves taking those small thumbnails and enlarging them to 11×17 and quickly inking them. At this stage I’m more concerned with the actual drawing, because I focused on design in the first stage I can fly through thses and just flesh out faces and backgrounds a bit. Traditionally people use pencils in this stage but I prefer a flair pen. Helps keep me loose with pens. Since I’m inking these in the next stage, this level of detail is fine, but if I were handing these off to an Inker, I would tighten them up a bit.
The pic above is of 12 roughs for Ms. Jennie Wood’s and my project FLUTTER pages 45-56 and the 7 thumbs for a short I’m working on with Mr. Shawn Aldridge for the 215 ink Anthology due out in early 2012.
Tune in next time when I turn these roughs into INKS!
