New sketch from Tal! He thought it was odd that Ninja Ned has chinese stars over his NIPPLES, and turned him into Ned, the Naughty Ninja!

Its been awhile since I've posted one of my own, and I did two new ones last weekend, so here's the first of them.

This is a figure that I've had this concept style planned since I started this book (out of about 25 ideas, this is #18 to be put on paper) and it looks exactly the way I planned it 2 years ago: very stylized in line weight, yet accurate to the figure.

This is the second of my new sketches. I did this one all in one try: no plotting the figure to guage the drawing, no mistakes to cover up, just held up the figure and drew one stripe at a time, then the red outlines to define the edges. I like him better with open hands than the fists because the sillouettes look better. The yello backdrop was just a klik of paint can. Really like this one

Thanks again guys! :kid: Glad there's still intrest in this project. BOOK ONE (meaning I may start Book Two) is almost full, with 3 unfinished sketches and four blank pages remaining, and some of my best ideas yet to come.

Here's the second to last pro peice in the book, an indie from the last 'con of '06, who's style reminds me of Erik Larson and Marvel art in the eighties.

I love this one! It definitely has a 70's 80's feel to it with all that cosmic energy flowing behind him. ;) Makes me want to pull out some of my Avengers comics.

Been a longer wait between posts, but those that follow this topic are well aware of how my momentum stalls out from time to time, so there you go.

This is a fake resteraunt logo I did while I was on buisness in Pittsburg, Penn. Just tonight got around to adding the text. When I get back into screenprinting, this is definately going on shirts...

this topic's been kinda slow-going for awhile, mainly from the knowledge that there were only 4 pages left unfinished. I've been running this theme book (and this topic consequently) since I first joined the grand old AKIA. The theme was color-only sketches of color muscle men, and professional convention sketches with color added. A very narrow feild of restrictions, and after more than 95 color picks, these last 4 seem much more ominous than they should.

I have started a NEW BOOK, with a fresh outlook, and much broader topic. This book will be all little rubber guys (that I have a figure of to draw from): Battlebeasts, MIMP, mini boglins, sd muscle, fop, mezitz, and so on. Even Care Bears ans Wuzzles will make a showing.The book is only 5 1/2 by 8 1/2, much more impulse friendly. With 100 new pages, this project is far from coming to an end. And there is a book 3 already started, but more on that later.

Book 2 starts off with 4 classic MIMP, all done last night and this morning. I so missed using black sharpies, and I can't wait to hop from series to series.

Thanks all for your continued interest in my quirky little hobby, and I'll try to do better to live up to it. :D

Another impulse sketch! This is the little bobblehead Godzilla (Bobblezilla?) on my monitor. Took about an hour on him last night, magic-tooled him over my sig this afternoon. Could very possibly be my new avatar...

Thanks, Johnny! I'm having a lot of fun with this new book, and hope to cater to most everyone's favorites. This new one is a sure pleaser: the Akuma figure from puzzle fighter. Pencils first, then color tones, then gel pen outlines.

wow, almost a year to the day since I'd added anything to this topic. all those art challenges really had me busy I guess.
Posted Image

the snigator/lizard liz mash-up is in the same book as all the muscle pics in this topic, and the make up of figure #006 that I swore I'd do back on April 10th, 2005.

Using the guache (watercolor) was much easier and produced better results than the sharpies I swore by for so many years. I'll still use them, but the watercolors are my new medium of choice.

I'm gonna make a serious effort to finish this book in July' and not with entries for challenges. After that, I dunno if I'll continue here, or focus on getting back to collecting, the contests, the custom figures, the patches, and whatever else the boards throw at me.
