Commmission: Anna Mercury

Commission: Doctor Who

This piece was a joy to do. I inked it with a brand-new, fresh out of the tube, Winsor-Newton Series 7 #2 brush. I previously had been using a #1 (for years) and finally decided to move up to a bigger size. Talk about lush, flowing lines! Makes me wish I'd also sprung for a #3, but maybe next time. I have a lot of friends who have had hit-and-miss luck with W-N brushes (myself included), but this one was a winner from the word go.

Commission: The Shadow

Commission: The Punisher

Commissions featuring specific characters seem to come in bunches, and it looks like there's a run on Punisher commissions this week.

Rocketeer and Betty pencils

This week's theme over at Comic Twart is The Rocketeer (yes, I'm the one responsible for the theme). My finished inks can be found here.

I initially wanted to do a scene with Betty lunging with the helmet and jetpack, with Peavy, Cliff and Butch the bulldog somewhere in the scene. Additionally, I wanted to do a second drawing, spotlighting Cliff in uniform, flying (and maybe montage elements from the two series in there, like Jonas, Marco, Ham & Monk, the flying wing, etc). However, it was waaaaay too ambitious to think I could do both images, so I added Cliff flying as a vignette in the Betty piece and the problem was solved.

Commission: Punisher Max

A commission in the spirit of the Punisher Max series...intimidating because I love Tim Bradstreet's moody work...still, the end result looks okay.

Summit City Comic Con promo piece

Here are the pencils to a promo piece for te upcomic Summit City Comic Con.

Jim Nelson will be inking and coloring the piece. I'm excited about the collaborative effort!
