Retro Comic Book Cover…

Just finished some Old School inks for this throwback cover of Walt Disney Comics from 1945! I haven’t pulled out the ole’ dip pens for quite some time, but I do think it’s important to preserve (and use) the old methods. This will be particularly true when the machines/AI take over and no longer allow us to create our own art!

Tales to Astonish!


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As promised (to my students) here is the full set – from pencils to inks to full color for the “Tales to Astonish” No. 14. I’ll have the Manga cover done soon. Stay tuned!

X-1 Rocket!

I finally got me one of those X-1 rockets I always wanted as a kid! Here I am taking it out on a ride around the galaxy! I wonder if there’s handicapped parking on other worlds?!

Thunder Lizard inks


I did a drawing, “Thunder Lizard,” for an adventure panel comic. I liked the layout but, as happens sometimes, as I was finishing it I realized the physics of the tail swing were off.
So I did a redesign. Now the physics are correct and the blacks present a much more balanced drawing while giving this long-neck more weight. I also added more texture between the lights and shadows. All in all, a better composition.
