Want some candy?

Okay, I've been having a really bad day. I don't really feel like talking about it too much right now. Although, you can check out my other blog in the sidebar and read about it if you wish.

However, I AM working on a "I wanna feel better" drawing that I'm fixing to go paint.

Here's the pencil/ink:

Productivity is up . . .

Wow . . . two posts within a few hours of one another. I've been nice and productive tonight. I decided to sit down and paint the detective picture that I inked. Thought you might want to see the finished product.

Angelic works

My sister actually commissioned this piece a long while ago, and I just got around to penciling it. I think you guys will like where this is going.

Enjoy!

This is the city . . .

Hey guys, just thought I'd drop a line and show you something I'm working on. I'm hoping to land a freelance job as illustrator for a novel a friend of mine is writing, he needs a pic for my "audition" so I tossed together a doodle of his main character, a detective. It only took me eight months to figure out, but I've FINALLY worked out how to ink properly in photoshop. Hooray!

Enjoy!





















I love it. It's still got a long way to go, I need to get rid of the pencil lines and then start coloring. Oh well. Oh, by the way - classes started, and so long as I buckle down and work hard this semester, this should be fun!

Finished coloring Batman. Take a look.

Still Kicking

Wow . . . that was perhaps the busiest and craziest set of holidays I've gone through in years. Sorry that I haven't posted anything in two weeks. I finally finished the specialized portion of my job training and I begin my normal hours tomorrow. Huzzah!! Now I don't have to get up at 7:00 AM in order to get to work on time.

Anyway . . .

I decided I was in a sketching mood tonight. I've got a couple of doodles for an two upcoming superhero projects (one of Nightwing and another of my two favorite Marvel superheroes - Spider-man and Nightcrawler). Well, in addition to those doodles, I fell upon a great pose for the Dark Knight himself and decided to pencil a character sketch. I think I did a pretty good job and I'm gonna start inking this one (both digitally and physically) as soon as possible.

Take a look:




Adam West, eat your heart out.

Christmas time rules!

Hey guys! I hope everyone is having a great Christmas. I got some awesome stuff this year, but that's not really the point.

I did want to make a quick post to show you guys one thing I got that IS relevant to this blog.

I got a drawing table!!!

















Sorry for the crummy quality pic, I only have a cheap Wal-Mart webcam with which to capture this beautiful piece of furniture. It's solid walnut, and one of the most beautiful and sturdy tables I've seen. I've also been secretly obsessing over this thing for about a year and a half now. My wonderful fiancee tipped off my parents that I wanted it, and I was surprised with this thing today.

After a somewhat embarrassing scavenger hunt. But we won't go into that.
