loup-garou

Finished drawing

Sketch

Sorry vampires. Werewolves will always be cooler.

The rewarding part of taking the time to work in layers and masks in photoshop is that it results in a highly customizable image. In other words... let's play dress up!

I think I'm going to have to draw the little lady a fella so's she can go out dancing...

bee's knees

1920's gal. 

Drawn after watching The Painted Veil. I'll fully admit and it should come as no surprise that I'm a sucker for period pieces, mostly for the costume design, settings, and period language. While the photography was beautiful and the bleak story well-acted, I'm partial to the one review on Rotten Tomatoes which simply stated:

"If the cholera doesn't get you, the dialogue probably will."

deatheater

A Deatheater/dark wizard from the Harry Potter series.

Not sure who this guy is yet, but I definitely wouldn't mess with him. 

bot

Note the contrapposto. Oh that's right, I paid attention in Art History, it only looked like I was napping.

I think this guy deserves a proper coat of paint in the near future...

sabretooth & wolverine

Because they should have made a movie out of the opening credits of X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

I'm just sayin'.

In addition to some mad researching, this was practicing styles, playing with proportions, and trying out some new techniques. And boy, did I learn a lot on this one. You wouldn't think that drawing hands and feet stupidly big would be that much fun. But it is.

storm

Lunch sketch at work.

Ok, so I'm on a bit of an X-men kick. Bear with me.

magnum

Hey mom, I know you read this thing.

This one's for you. Happy Mother's Day.

stars and garters

Yay! 

Beast from the X-Men.

If you ever have a few spare minutes, I highly suggest checking out the Library of Congress' Flickr photostream. Chock full o' history goodness and intense stares. Like Captain Poncelet, here.

atomic robo volume 3

Hey kids! Atomic Robo volume 3 kicks off today with Atomic Robo and the Shadow From Beyond Time #1. Get thee to your local comic book store and pick up a copy. Atomic Robo is genuine and downright quality stuff, put together by an amazing team. You just can't go wrong. Also, Brian and Scott were kind enough to have me on board for a mini-comic in the back of this issue. 

That's right, Jenkins is in it. So you know you're in for a good time.
