I’ve made promises in the past that I have yet to make good on. So maybe this is something and maybe it isn’t, but for now, let’s just enjoy it as an image appropriate to the Halloween spirit, shall we?
Get off the internet and go eat some candy, you nerds! Happy Halloween!
Wow, that’s the title I came up with? Sorry everyone. Here’s some more Halloween-themed fun… at least I hope it’s fun?
A little something for the season… a vampire bat greaser:
This follows a few of my previous posts–Mummy, Golem, and Frankenstein Monster.
Something of a belated follow up to an older post, it’s Raphael:
Am I the only one who prefers cuttingly sarcastic, smart-ass Raphael over brooding, angry, thug-Raphael? The optimal characterization probably falls somewhere between the two, but he’s consistently been portrayed as pissed-off and thuggish in recent years. Just a thought.
I posted a picture of a lumberjack some time ago, which was originally commisioned by my friend James, as part of an animation pitch. Here’s a forest ranger from the same pitch:
I’m still pretty happy with this piece, I think it holds up alright–but let’s be honest folks, my blog posts this year (so far) have been all over the place…. tons of last minute posts and Flashback Fridays. I’ll endeavor to (metaphorically) provide fresher produce in the future.
Sorry for the interruption in the series. From City of Heroes, here’s the Statesman‘s archenemy, Lord Recluse (named for the venomous brown recluse spider):
I took a few liberties with the costume design on this one, but I think it worked out. Recluse’s logo is normally only seen on his forehead, while a generic spider emblem is emblazoned on his breastplate. I think Recluse actually has a pretty cool looking logo, so I put that on his breastplate instead, and left his forehead blank.
C’mon, Recluse! Take a hint from Cobra Commander–if you’ve got a good logo, flaunt it!
Please enjoy:
Unlike a shark, I do not have to keep moving. I’m going to sleep early and I’m going to stay very still.
My apologies for the interruption of my “MMO Tuesdays” series of sketches–
friends in town + Long Beach Comic-Con + crushing sinus pain + me being a big baby = me not having the time or energy to color.
However, the Con was great (I definitely recommend that everyone check it out next year). I got to meet a lot of cool people, and it’s always a good time hanging out with the usual suspects (Josh, Dustin, Derek, Marcus, Peter, Tu, etc).
The aforementioned guys all had tables in artist’s alley, and while they were trying to do business, I was hanging around bothering them all, and sketching stuff like this (which I inked after the con):
Another shark coming up on Friday, and the conclusion of the MMO series next Tuesday. Stay tuned!
What has four legs, spits up hairballs, and causes me to put up last minute blog posts?
