Crom!


Just some Conan doodles. Been reading the Savage Sword reprints lately...classic Robert E. Howard with great pencils by Buscema and inks by Alcala and Nubres and a bevy of others...so good!

Dino



Oh yeah, a drawing done for AJ, sorry about the boring side shot, only afterwards did I look at it and go, " ......Huh, the same side shot I always draw of a T-Rex, how incredibly original."

Really need to push it and stop with the safe stuff...

More wimmins



Just some stuff from some recent sketchin'...
All those women and nary a sword....kinda' sad about that.....

Obsess much?

So, uh, yeah, just some random doodlin' and somehow I ended up with three Cap's on the same page...that's not too crazy is it? ........Is it?

more crap....



Some rtecent doodlin' and a rough to show a certain someone that I'm actually workin' on this stuff....you know who you are....:)

AVP


An Aliens Vs. Predator drawing my son did, thought it was pretty cool!

Halloween!


Went to the annual Best Halloween Party Ever, a great time was had by all. I had to explain what I was too many damn times, more people really need to watch Venture Bros.

sketch dump





Recently finished a sketchbook, just a few odds and ends from it, it's been a while so I figured I'd throw a big post in.

Skeletor

Did this for AJ, will try to color it, which is my way of saying it probably won't happen. This guy was SO much cooler looking than the rest of the characters, of course you can't go wrong with a skull face with hood. The only thing I never understood was the guy had this cool armor, but went around barefoot?

It's that time again!

Well, it's getting about that time; This little fella' will be on the fliers for the Best Halloween Party Ever!! So start thinking about your costumes and if you live in Phoenix, come by, because it really is a great party. Hell, even if you don't live in Phoenix, drive, fly, whatever, you won't regret it!

God of Thunder



The Thor is for the awesome lightning storms we've had here in Phx. lately. I've not seen storms like these in years! It seriously looks like the skies are bombarded with anti-aircraft fire, truly amazing to see.

Who Dies First?!!


Barbarians thread on AJ...now gotta' get back to drawin'!

more women!....with swords!



Some more women with swords and a pen and ink from the ol' sketchbook.

Fat bottom girls....with swords!!

I'm putting this up to distract anyone from actually looking at my last post...

Radicalkillerawesome, dude!

OK, I posted this on AJ and thought I'd get blasted, but it turns out lots o' folks seem to remember the early 80's and the horrible clothes we wore. Here I am in classic 1983 style; Half-shirt, 501 cut-offs, untied Nike high tops, growin' the hair out, and swinging some chuks a la Bruce Lee. I was listening to Scorps AC/DC Priest and Van Halen. I had some cordoroy OP shorts, as well. And they were probably just as short as the cut-offs! I'm reminded of just how short everytime I see classic NBA games with Magic, Dr. J, or Larry Bird.....What were we thinking back then?!

Spear

Warming up with a tech pen, sometimes it's fun to just noodle with those fine-tips.

Whew!


Well, Comicon was awesome. I would have posted earlier but it seems like it took a few days just to recover. To any and all that came to the AJ booth to check out CAKE, I thank you. In a time when anthologies are popping up everywhere I thank you immensly for taking the time to look at our little book.
I would also like to thank Sean "Cheeks" Galloway, Robert Valley, Ashley Wood and Eric Canete. I'm a huge fan of these artists and they were all so nice and gracious upon meeting, they made the Con that much better for the experience. I'm sure I'm forgetting some others but the whole thing was a bit overwhelming and I feel I'm still proccessing all the visual stimuli that assaulted me over the five days.
Anyway, here's a Cap pic I worked on after buying a brush pen, it worked for a while but the hairs started splitting tonight while practicing, which frustrated me to no end so I had to quit before burning my house down in a fit of rage...yes, stuff like that really bothers me, I just bought the damn thing!!

New business card!


So this is probably going to be my business card... you critical design types ( you know who are) are more than welcome to add any info that might help. I just wanted something that said "me" and yes there will be a "chick with sword" version sometime before the year is out.

Looking back



Was working on some projects and got distracted( as usual) and started playing around with some older images, working with positive/negative space. Anyway, a couple came out kinda' cool (to me, anyways) so here's an earlier Cap and a Red Sonja (in a very Timm style) so yes, it's come to this, I am now recycling old work...my laziness knows no bounds....

sketches and a post-it

Just wanted to say thanks to any and all that came out to the CAKE signing at Red Hot Robot. It surpassed any expectations I might have had and was really fun meeting and signing the books for everyone. I hope they enjoy the book and know how much we appreciate the support.

Red Hot Robot show

Well, this Friday we're doing a Cake release party at Red Hot Robot. As with my usual bouts of procrastination, I waited till the last moment to mention it. If interested, please link to Art Jumble where you can find out all the info. There should be food, drink, and all around merriment as we pat ourselves on the back for actually finishing something. There will also be prints for sale. I just finished this little number here. My kids liked it so I figure you might, too.

Jus' sketchin'...


It's so hot here in Phx. My works' AC broke down Monday morning and we've had the last two days off and was told not to come in tomorrow. I've been taking the opportunity and working on various projects, this was some warm up sketching I did earlier today.

Wonder Woman


I went for a Shane Glines look on this. I wanted it a bit cartoony. Eventually I hope to color it when I get a moment.
And on a side note, I think anyone seeing this blog ( again, all two of you) should head over to Harper Jatens' Awesome Blog. It's right there on the links. Just check out his Sea of Red drawings, and the colors! This guy should be doing a book like yesterday. You hear me , Jaten? Get to work!

Hulk

A couple of old sketches I did way back. Not even sure if I've posted these before....if so, sorry about that, just found some copies in an old folder and figured since the movie just came out...

The New Guy

A new Cap sketch from the sketchbook. Not crazy about the new design, but the series has been top notch, Brubaker is just too damn good. His Criminal series is just great, with very interesting articles and essays in the back about crime noir movies and novels. The man knows his stuff.

Sketches



More from the sketchbook. Also, the Cake book came in so feel free to head over to Art Jumble and order 1 or 15 copies of the book. The guys did a great job and I'm very proud of everyone's contributions and professionalism. There's already talk of a Cake vol. II and I will update as much as possible. For those that have already purchased a book, you have my thanks and gratitude!

Sketchbooky stuff



Some more sketches from the book, I figure it's better than watching the hated Spurs go to another Western Conference Finals....I would really like express my intense dislike for them but would probably come across as a little insane, although I'm pretty sure Robert Horry's soul will burn in a lake of fire someday, that's the only explanation for such a cheap shot artist to be rewarded with so many Championships....and yes, I'm a bitter little man......:)

slackin' again...


just some more from the sketchbook, need to finish some actual projects...

Another mermaid


Here's another mermaid and a Hulk sketch

Late, as usual

Well, crazy deadlines prevented me from participating in last week's Art Jumble, but I did manage to squeeze a little time tonight to get this done.

New stuff and a new look



Well, just like a proud owner of a mullet in the early 90's , I thought my blog looked fasionable and cool but was informed that was not the case and I was seriously out of touch with the current trends. So I started the change tonight, updated the look a bit, with more changes coming soon ( I still have to figure what I want for a title image)
The coming Iron Man movie's got me a bit stoked, hence the sketch, and of course ...a chick with a sword! The blog might look different but the content's pretty much the same, sorry about that.
