Trickster Pencils: Page 1

This is the first page of pencils I am illustrating for an comics anthology of Native American stories called, "Trickster".

Liquid Revolver

I just finished illustrating 6 pages (which are a small portion of a larger story) called, "Liquid Revolver".

This bit represents the first comics related work I have ever started and completed. So yeah it's only 6 pages but it is a milestone for me. Cheers.

practice with watercolor/inks

did this pic for practice tonight - after a photo landscape I found online here

The next one is a variation I made using photoshop's color match feature against the original photo...the colors are a little less strident in this variant.

Sketch book entries: This idea is stolen from the DC Conspiracy forum stolen from Alex Toth. The idea is to draw a bunch of little boxes and fill them in with sketches. Like the aforementioned artists I also am using a pen to draw without rough pencils. Hopefully this can increase my ability to wield a pen and also forces me to be spontaneous since there is no chance to go back and redo anything.

drawing for September

Got the idea of drawing a Fawn. the scan sucks but it's late so here it is anyway.

dude with champagne

went back to the regular brush after a spending a long time with brush-pens/markers and wow. the brush is soooo nice. I can make pretty much any line I want to with that thing and the quality of the line is much better.

sketch

Instead of going to lunch I sat at my desk and did some sketches. Here is one of sam jackson from pulp fiction.

FACA 3 - Too bad so sad

This is "Kate Amari". My fighter from FACA 3 West Region bracket of the Fist-a-cuffs "FACA 3" tourney. She was obliterated by the West region winner in the first round. It was my first entrant to FACA and it was a lot of fun. Go over to the site and check it out. There are a bunch of incredible drawings there. Here is another fighter I drew but didn't submit: "Hagar the Hornible".
