sketches and musing of a cracked mind
Just wanted to draw some eyecandy for various persuasions.
So we had a small visitor at work a few weeks ago, and they spent the entire day right near me, stock still, with only a glass wall separating us. They were being such a good model, my friend challenged me to draw them.
(photo was taken at lower angle, but it gives you a sense how close I was. Dude was just chillin’, spending the day at the museum.)
Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson, enjoying a little downtime.
Looks like Dick didn’t get all the way through the movie, though.
limited color sketch/speedpaint. I think I might have all this papal nonsense on the brain.
Outfit inspired by the traditional benedictine robes.
Still tweaking, but it’s finally starting to come along. A little grittier than my usual work.
Still working on this- as you can see by the lack of background- but I’m having fun with this girl. A bit more punk than my usual steampunk pieces.
So, I might still be stuck in the snow after Nemo this past weekend.
Traditional pencil, Photoshop color. 3+ hours.
This is totally @Willatwork’s fault. When discussing a new ride for #Maddow, he mentioned a horse…
Yeah, more Spirit- this one is the one I’m currently working on. I’m itching to do a partial cast scene- Ellen Dolan, Silk Satin and Sam Klink do not get enough love.
Opinions?
My Spirit Wears Blue… A little old (from just before the movie-that-shall-not-be-named came out in 2008), but still, one of my favorite sketches, since it does decently look like the old newspaper versions of the Spirit.
That seems to be something a lot of people forget- while the Warren and Kitchen Sink reprints were in black and white, the original Spirits ran in bright, vibrant colors. And just having come from the Will Eisner exhibit at MoCCA in New York, getting to see his color work up close is AMAZING.
Me, bitter? Never.
I have another Spirit in sketch form on my art desk. Hopefully I’ll finish him in time for Free Comic Book Day, along with the Tick piece I’ve been working on.
Man I talk to much.
