I hate spiders

As I was laying this out, I had the realization that Venom was the very first Marvel character I had ever drawn back in the day when I was but a wee bean sprout. I still even have the very comic I drew it out of (Amazing Spider-Man Annual #25), which was the first comic Dad had ever bought me.

Once upon a time ... in a galaxy far far away ...

Woo hoo, first posting of 2013!!! I have a good feeling that this year I'll have a more creatively productive year. For a while I've been wanting to put my own spin on the Disney princesses and I've finally found a different direction for them that I haven't seen explored too much (surprisingly).I had to look up a good bit of Star Wars reference because I'm not entirely familiar with all their characters, so I borrowed visual motifs from different Jedis such as Asajj Ventress and Kit Fisto. There are more designs for other ones so stay tuned!

Just some warm ups ...

I'm trying to do at least a post a month, so since I missed out in April I'll be doing at least two this month. I decided to do some warm up sketches. These are just simple for now but I'll be doing bigger illustrations soon. Post numero dos will be up soon!

Animal lovers

Here's a couple sketches I kicked out, one old and one new. The lion family is a revamp of an older post, I tried pushing the design a little bit more. While working on the lion family I had an idea for a Southern alligator couple, I think I'm happy with it ... for now :-)

Phew . . . lots of X-Men

Leave comments!

Psylocke

Shadowcat & Lockheed

Storm, this one is my fave.

Dazzler

Domino, well she's actually X-Force, but whatever . . .

Summer drawings

It's been almost too long since my last post and even then I'm not too hot about the last one. It's been a long summer, but despite that I've still been drawing in my leisurely time. The old man is based off a neat photograph I saw, the girl is based off of what I call "the Starbucks Girl" whom you see everywhere at any Starbucks and the dogs were a shot out of my comfort zone cause I haven't spent a lot of time drawing them.

Sketching Ahead

Ok that title was a really bad joke but I had to do it. I wanted to do a quick sketch last night just because Halloween is a good excuse to do something like this.

As I promised . . . more!

Here's just some more random sketches:



And there's still more to come!!!

I'm not dead

I know it's been a little while since I've posted anything and I've been getting alot of gripes and complaints through emails and comments about why I haven't posted any new stuff. Well for the record I'm not dead and there's gonna be new stuff up soon. So here is some filler till then.

These are scans from my Moleskine sketchbook. I only use this sketchbook when I travel.

This is from Stockholm, Sweden. The Venus de Milo was just a replica in a Flemmish Museum:

This was outside my Hotel in Paris,France:

And this was from inside the Lourve in Paris:

These are from when I went to Waikiki Beach at Honolulu,Hawaii:


This was when I was in Tennesse (which is a lame state from what I saw) and was inspired to sketch out Jesus Christ, a man to whom I owe my life to . . .

My Heroes

Here's some comic illustrations, I don't do these all too often because they take eleventy billion years to do and I don't have as much time on my hands.

A buddy of mine asked for a drawing of Batman in exchange for one of his pieces so this is what he got.


These are some older ones I did . . .

People people everywhere

Here are some sketches, I decided to just do a lot of different characters and a lot of them are just inspired by pictures of other cultures I looked at . . .
