Green Energy


Because the people demanded it: Alan Scott the Green Lantern.
And, because Ron demanded it, he's in his puffy pirate shirt.

Have a good weekend folks!

Frequent Flyer


Another Man of Steel drawing to share with you. I liked doing the watercolors on this, unfortunately, my scanner is crap at scanning watercolors (as I pointed out in an earlier post). You'll have to take my word for it that this piece looks better in person. :)

World's Finest or I Make This Cape Work

As promised, some World's Finest (and friends) drawings from my sketchbook. I had a blast doing these--in fact, it's the only time I've ever enjoyed drawing Superman (a character I normally find pretty boring). I would love to see a World's Finest that takes place in the 30's or 40's. Would anyone out there know if DC has already done this?
Hope you all enjoy these!

The Lady is a Champ

I've never been a giant fan of Wonder Woman--I'm not sure I've ever read a comic of hers--but her costume and design is wonderful and a lot of fun to play with. There are so many different directions that her design can be taken in.
Whenever, I pick up the sketchbook to doodle and I'm at a loss as to what to draw, I end up falling back on super-heroes (or naked ladies). Sooo, the next couple posts are going to be super-heroe themed drawings done in this same style. I hope you like 'em.
Next: World's Finest.

Worst Halloween Ever


I hesitate to even put these images up on the blog. Although I really liked the above piece, my scanner really sucks at scanning color. Anyway, this was done the other night while hanging out with friends. I've been wanting to play with watercolors for a while so I thought I'd do a little practice sketch.
The below image is just the same watercolored image only with the foreground characters colored a little more flat in Photoshop. I was going for a kind of cel animation style--something I've been wanting to try for a while.
So, while not an overwhelming success, I did have a lot of fun with this piece and I intend to do some more pieces like it in the near future.

As always, click on images to big 'em up.

Supes Kitchen

Some grabs from the sketchbook These all revolve around a family (a group of super-heroes I draw from time to time) at breakfast time. I think I must have been hungry when I was drawing these.
P.S. I sure hope you went out and voted today. I was at the polls at 6 this morning and stood in line for over 3 hours. Totally worth it.

Drawing for Funs

To get this week started off on the right foot I'm offering up these cartoon drawings that are colorful, airy and ultimately, optimistic in their character.
The above and below are actually images from two separate story ideas but since they share the same style I thought I'd post them together. Hope you like 'em!
