Show Us Your Art... Again

[Comic Book Geek]

Been a little while since I've seen seen one of these threads. It's a rainy day here and I've finally gotten aroung to scanning some stuff. Also been playing around with coloring some comic bookish stuff. Trying to get a little more in tune with the digital age... So here's something I did today... colored part of a drawing just to see what my capabilities are. Anyong else got anything new to show off?

one of my recent pieces for Time Out New York, this time of Rob Zombie.

the editors asked me to change the background and get rid of the 70s exploitation-poster warning and put in a blood spatter, a change i really hated, but what are you gonna do?

i put a cruddy-looking halftone effect over him to give off that cheap movie poster feel, like one you'd see in a newspaper, something i thought fit the subject and that Rob himself would appreciate. this is the one i preferred:



rob!

Did you draw that Aaron? If so, you've got a Frank Miller meets Walt Simonson vibe going. If not, nice coloring there!

Cool Rob there...Rob! It totally looks like an old newspaper ad, or cheap black and white poster effect. Much more subtle than "blood splatters", but that's part and parcel for being a commercial artist.

I was kind of waiting to announce this closer to publication time, but thanks to our own Captain, I was able to hook up with the fine folks at AC Comics, and draw seven pages of the upcoming FemForce #141. I had a blast, and it looks like I'll be doing more FemForce work in the future. The pages contain some pretty hevy spoilers. Page 2 of my sequence is the least "revealing".



Again a big thanks to Clayton and Mark at AC for the opportunity!

Yeah. It's over a decade old. I wanted to practice coloring and used that one. I'm not much of an inker and don't have too many examples I can live with.

Turning my inked scans into vectors is an issue for me. I have an old scanner, and I used Corel as it's what I'm most familiar with. I have Illustrater maybe I'd get better results with that. I'd take any suggestions. I'm way out of date with the digital age artisticly speaking.

Nive work Rob and Chris. I always like seeing your stuff. I'll post more later.

I found this line drawing on the internet:




And coloured it:

That is some nice "painting" you did over those pencils Anthony! Very photo-realistic.

Hee heee!

Neat stuff! CBG's coloured stuff reminds me A LOT of a cartoonist who was pretty popular back in the 70's... but I can't remember his name. I remember he did a lot of cool horror books though. Had a weird sort-of pointilistic style.

.... 'course everybody's stuff makes me feel old; since I hate using digital colour....

Anyhoo; since I hate being left out, here's a couple of pics I did at work.

Funny thing; even when I try to make folks look nonthreatening, it never seems to work:

My stuff

This is what I do as a day and night job.
About the time of year where guys like me are accepted hehe.
I have hundreds more but these are some of the latest. The Frank is more inspired by the Art of Jack Davis combined with all of my other favorite versions.

The shock monster was featured in Horrorhound magazine.
It's an updated design on the monster mask from the old Famous Monster of filmland magazine pages seen like my avatar.
Take care,
Justin

Always been a fan of your classic horror movie posters and now you come with this? I'm also a big Rob Zombie fan, so you can imagine how I feel about this

Wow! Fantastic stuff! I didn't realize there was so much talent out there.

I am artistically inclined and used to draw like crazy when I was a kid. I have a pencil drawing I did of the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl 17 (I was 14 at the time) that I'll scan and post. I never took any art classes other than the elementary school kind and regret never pursuing it any further but really awesome work guys.


All of the pictures look great!
