ANOTHER ACTION POSE

This is a cropped panel from WRECK issue #1.


ACTION POSE

A cropped drawing of one of the pages from WRECK issue #1.  This pose took me so long to get.  I just wasn't used to drawing from this perspective, so I was constantly erasing.  But with determination and many brakes I got it pretty close to what I wanted.  I have come to the realization that I can only draw at my skill level, because I can usually see the drawing better in my head than I can actually draw.  My goal in life is to switch this, so I draw better than my imagination.  Which will probably never happen, but if I think like that I have no choice but to become a better artist.

SHINE PINUP

Here is Shine's costume, I wanted him to look like a galactic Ken from Street Fighter, I think I succeeded.


MY INSPIRATION

These artists have inspired my most recent work.

J.H. Williams III

I love his comic art, because it is so different and creative.  He does these crazy page layouts that are breathtaking as well as effective storytelling.

Gabriel Rodriguez

I love his line weight and how he uses it to create these three dimensional characters that pop right off the page.

Danny

I love the way this artist uses simple lines, color and texture to create these amazing prints.  He makes these superheroes seem less comic book like and more like graphic design.

Andrew Spear

He is one of the local artist in Orlando and he obviously loves lines, he uses beautiful crosshatching to create these giant Pop Art murals.

PROGRESS

Even though I haven't posted anything in a while I have made great progress.  I can honestly say I was self motivated, the fear of failure actually kept me going.  This is my legacy I want to leave on the world and I want to prove to everyone that you can make a good living off of art.
