Yet another Sweet Thing preview.

Although at this point I’m sure I’m really just trying to prove to myself that I don’t only want to draw people…

I have a favorite pen… And indeed, it’s definitely not waterproof.

Top tip: If you’re going to walk your finished comics pages over to the library to use their largescale scanner…. Don’t do it in the rain.

(Page taken from new chapter of Sweet Thing).

I decided to do Mignola’s Hellboy, inspired by N.C. Wyeth.

It’s as though my geekiness and my artsiness had a bastard.

It’s funny how things that are meant to be will just turn out - This one took about a full night’s work to complete.

Acrylics, 2011.

An innocent story for innocent people.

And yes.

One cat is holding knuckle dusters.

The other, a moltov cocktail.

Warmup sketch of the day to loosen the ol’ hand up… Who are you, mystery woman?!

So it’s times like these where I sit around and I think,

“JEEZ, today I’ve got to illustrate this gorilla monster gettng electrocuted!”

…And then I realize that my life is not so bad.

My original intention was to put it on tumblr, but honestly I feel the layout of this site is not the type of thing I want for a linear story. Perhaps if I ever make a nonsequential strip-style one, yes, but pages are best meant in context.

So what I want: Does anybody know of a place that’d be good for comics hosting?

Preview of a concept thing I’m working on… A little speedpainting, nothing too special.

You look familiar.

2’x3’, quick self portrait study, about an hour’s worth of work.

Ganondorf, mixed media, 2011.

Sometimes the only way to make a piece better is to start over…
And sometimes digital just isn’t enough by itself.
Currently re-doing a Ganondorf redesign.
Before/After. I’d put this at about 60% done.

(Tumblr photobombed me. Appropriate.)

Jeckyll & Hyde, ala Alan Moore (League of Extraordinary Gentlemen!)
Sketchbook, 2011.

Oh yeah also more Hellboy.

Hellboy madness I guess.
