Heh...

I don't have any new artwork to share but I came across this online somewhere. Hilarious.

SUPERMAN, MAN, man, man... (Color)

I whined like a child about this one BIG time on Facebook. Sheesh. While it's not nearly as bad as I felt at the time, it was still a lesson in frustration for me. I just couldn't get it to look the way I wanted. Luckily, my friend Emilio helped me patch it up and tie the whole image together otherwise I probably wouldn't have even posted it. Thanks, E-Lo!

Hopefully, I'll just improve with each image.

SUPERMAN, MAN, man, man...

My second image of DC's big trifecta. I wanted to do something that captured what I thought was the essence of the character. 

Colors are coming up next.

Batcolor

Didn't realize I hadn't posted this to me blog. Here are da colors for my last Batpic. I plan on doing one pic for each of DC's "Big Three" before moving on to some Marvel characters. Why? Well, it turns out that I've never actually done a complete color image of any of them...ever. As a kid, I used to strictly draw in B&W (pencil only) for some reason. Probably because I didn't have much access to color markers/crayons/etc. Anyway, here's Batdude...


I was messing around with a shading technique that I saw David Curiel (amazing colorist/painter) use in an image. Turns out that he in turn was trying to mimic a technique used by Marte Gracia. I saw it, loved it, tried to mimic it myself and...didn't do anywhere near as good as I'd liked. Ah, well. Try and try again...
