58th Post!

Bombshells sketch card set from Bad Axe Studios. realized I never actually posted these (aside from 3 preview cards a few months ago).

here are all the cards I did...minus a few of the base cards (which were posted a while back as well).

I did have a lot of fun with these...History Channel and Military Channel are a couple of my favorite tv channels :))

57th Post!

Back home from Heroes Con and rested a bit. Thought I'd post a few of the convention sketches I remembered to take pictures of.  (though there's always a bunch I forget about).

 Copic Marker sketch cover of Batgirl
 Retro Rocket girl...so I put Brandi in there :). copic markers (watercolor background)
 Jun from Gatchaman. Drawn by Gene Gonzales, colored by me. First official commission where I did the coloring on someone else's drawing. Very cool! (copics/watercolor background)
 Poison Ivy, watercolor
 Powergirl, copics (watercolor background)
 Teen Titan girl (whose name I can't remember :)) copics in a sketchbook
Golden Age Wonder Woman (copics/watercolor background)

Thanks again to everyone that stopped by and got sketches, picked up books or just chatted. Heroes is always the friendliest convention. it's always great to see everyone there. :)

56th post!

Some new stuff before I head off to Heroes Con in North Carolina (June 7-9 2013).
I'll be set up in Artist's Alley at table AA-1422

First up, Poison Ivy which is my piece for the Heroes Con auction:
and here's a couple progress shots:
sketched out in photoshop,
and then the actual pencils and a couple painting shots:
and some more stuff...
Just because I'm totally addicted to Game of Thrones! Daenerys Targaryen, and yes, that's Kitty Pryde's Lockheed. seemed fitting :)
 Rogue on a blank sketch cover (copic markers)
and then a Batgirl companion piece for the Poison Ivy painting.

52nd Post!

I've been slow on the updates lately...sorry! The Brandi Bare kickstarter project has kept me busy lately.

Here's some new art that I've finished up for it.

Color versions of the postcard sets I created for the backers of the project.




See the earlier posts for the pencil versions of them. (These were colored in Photoshop and Painter.)
