a little "making of" Judge Death

JUDGE DEATH

Almost done with all my Super Show commission list so I am working on a few of my other commissions.

This is one from last year that I am just now getting to.... Judge Death.

I am also working on a companion piece of Judge Dredd and that is coming soon.

a little "making of" Aquaman and Topo

Aurthur gets the gun... Topo gets the mustache

This was a request for the 2011 Comic Geek Speak Super Show. The request was for AQUAMAN and his sidekick TOPO (the Octopus) but done as 70's Cops like from the Beastie Boy's Sabotage Music Video.

Originally, I classified this as a "Stupid" request. I hate those kinds (like Captain America sitting on a couch with the Red Skull sharing a bong) but something about it got my attention. Not sure what it was... but I gave it a try.

I liked how this one came out.

The request was also for a full color sketch but I really really really don't want to do that. My coloring skills suck and I spent a lot of time on this one and coloring it will only KILL it.

I got stuck on the couch with a dog and a pen and just went crazy on this one.

a little "making of" Babydoll from Sucker Punch

BABYDOLL from Sucker Punch

Did this one this weekend after seeing the movie.

As "eye candy" goes, it was pretty entertaining. As far as story, plot and characters.... um... no comment.... but the pictures were pretty.

PS, this one was done for just me and I'm not sure (yet) what will happen with the original. I may make this into a print for cons this year and next and may put the original on eBay sometime later.... we'll see.

a little "making of" Luke Nightwalker

LUKE NIGHTWALKER

This is a PERFECT example of how bad my scanner sucks.

The original looks soooo much better.

Anyway, another commission for the 2011 Comic Geek Speak Super Show. An combination of Luke Skywalker and Nightwing.

This is sort of a companion piece with The Darth Knight from last year

The WALRUS.

a little "making of" Batwoman portrait

a little idea i am working on for the CGS Super Show

i picked up a pad of 6x6 bristol paper a while ago and just came up with an idea to use them. i will be doing full color "portraits" of new and older sketches, maybe just a few of my favorites, and take them to the CGS Super Show. Most likely selling them for $5.

more coming soon...

a little "making of" Black Lantern Death Trooper

BLACK LANTERN DEATH TROOPER

Another Commission for the 2011 Comic Geek Speak Super Show in Reading, PA 4/30 - 5/1.

A Black Lantern Death Trooper.
This one was kind of cool and I really enjoyed it.
I may take another crack at this again

a little "making of" White Lantern Silver Surfer

WHITE LANTERN SILVER SURFER

WHITE LANTERN SILVER SURFER.

This one doesn't really qualify as a "Lantern" character. It's more like Silver Surfer with a ring, he he he.

I really liked the back ground affect here with the Kirby Krackles in black and white.

a little "making of" Red Lantern Moon Knight

I ditched the red moon thingy's for the final version. I liked them but the pose did not make them fit. Maybe next time.

RED LANTERN MOON KNIGHT

Another commission for the CGS Super Show.
Red Lantern Moon Knight.

The request was for the "Vengeance of Moon Knight" version, whom, I found had more of a body armor type of costume. Took that and ran with it.

Also, I wanted to show the "foaming" mouth but the character wears a full hood over his face so I did a "scarecrow" type of mask. i think it makes him even scarier.

a little "making of" Chad as a Red Lantern/Star Sapphire

Chad as a RED LANTERN/STAR SAPPHIRE

Another commission for the 2011 Comic Geek Speak Super Show...

I originally went with a "split" or "Two-Face" costume design but did not like the way it was coming out, so I did a "combined" costume.

a little "making of" Green Lantern Lois Griffin

GREEN LANTERN LOIS GRIFFIN on eBay

Easiest my favorite Family Guy character to draw. So far, she has been a RED Lantern, an INDIGO Lantern and not a GREEN Lantern. What color should I try next? STAR SAPPHIRE anyone?

He he he, enjoy

PS this one is up on eBay now here.

another BLACK LANTERN PETER GRIFFIN

This was another one of my Family Guy Lanterns requests that I've been really bad about posting. Got another chance at Peter as a Black Lantern.

a little "making of" Hello Kitty

HELLO KITTY

Another commission for the CGS Super Show. Other than HELLO KITTY there was no other direction for this one so I did Hello Kitty as Supergirl.

and a little "making of" Buck Rogers

BUCK ROGERS and TWIKI

Another CGS commission, Buck Rogers (Gil Gerard) and Twiki with Dr Theopolis around Twiki's neck.

I did several different ideas for this one and none really struck, at first. Third time was the charm.

and a little "making of" Lady Two-Face

LADY TWO-FACE

I've wanted to use this background since... forever. I think it works well here.

and a little "making of" Lady Manbat

LADY MANBAT... or sould that be SHEBAT?

OK. This would NOT be the first character that people would expect to see done as a chick out of all the Batman Baddies but it was the cone that stuck in my mind the most.

LADY MANBAT
