One Fine Day . . .

  Another piece to commemorate my hospital stay – and the fine treatment I received there! Although they treated me quite well, much of this is based in reality! Especially the Doctor practicing his “Operation”!!!

Finished inks

Here are the inks for my latest set of ‘Clamcakes.’ These are all hand done. I’m quite old school that way, kind of. While I can do these digitally, I much prefer the hand drawn approach. At the same time, I can do them (and have done them) with the really old school Crow Quill pen(s) and ink well. I love inking them that way, but it takes longer. So, I use Fudenasuke “brush” pens and Micron pens.

In this era of everything being digital, particularly with the advent of AI, I feel it’s more important than ever to keep these techniques alive! And, until they come up with an autopen for drawing, this will remain a human endeavor.

 

 

“Batman Gets Taken for a Ride”

Here are the finished inks for “Batman get’s taken for a ride.” He probably shoulda waited for the presidents day sale

Trick or Treat, Spidey!

Working on this Spiderman/Halloween piece. Here are the pencils and the inks. Getting pretty close with the color. Will post soon.

Gotta say, while the inks transfer better, I do love pencils. Particularly the texture and depth they have – Although you have to see them in person to fully see it. (‘course, I laove the way the inks look too!)

Godzilla inks!

   Just finished these inks for my recreation of “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” #12 (1st series). Took me longer than I had hoped (lot’s of other work going on!). Now, let’s see how long the color takes

Donald Duck!

  For all you Disney/Donald Duck lovers – I finished the recreation of the old Dell comics “Walt Disney’s Comics and Stories” of this cover from 1945, by Carl Barks. I will have it with me when I’m at the Seven Cedars Fall Festival Sept. 6th 120 John Mowry road, Smithfield, RI. Stop by and see me!
