wildthings sketch

I haven't participated in Drawergeeks for a while... in 2 weeks Where the Wild Things Are is the topic due. This will align with the Movie release. Can't wait to see that. So, here is the sketch that I will hopefully be able to render out for a finish in time. I would think that this would bring out a lot of submissions, being such an iconic book.

Tiki Girl

Tiki drawing for Drawergeeks. Drawing on Craft Paper, Thanks again Patty. I have scanned it in and am thinking some color overlay would give it the Hawaiian punch that would just send it to happy land.

POST 200!!!!
Sketch of Image comics character Detective Twitch. playing around on gray paper again then adjusting hues ever so slightly with a simple mask or two. Just playing around. Trying to generate a visual thought.

Drawergeeks sketch... we had an extra week... so I grabbed a piece of old black mat board and tried my hand at my version of black velvet. Colored Pencil on black board. I just couldn't find where to fit in a crying bullfighting Elvis. I may try a final like this but scratchy if I have time.

Drawergeeks: Giant Monsters. I took a break from the editorial cartoony stuff. I originally was going to do a giant spider, then one of the Godzilla clan, maybe Gigan or Anzilla... then Kong just seemed to speak to me. Maybe it is the Beauty and the Beast story that hooked me? I don't know. It is either lacking due to no background, but having put in several that may not be it. It may be lack of dynamic point of view. In which this piece would be scrapped and an entirely new angle and point of view would need to be thought out. But it has been fun to see where this goes.

Hellboy, new attempt: Drawergeeks sketch, I am dropping back to what I know... whatever that is. Maybe I just need to loosen up. we shall see. new possibilities.

second option for star belly... this was the original concept that I saw in my head... some sort of mermaid like person. But the original concept drawings were far too stiff, lifeless, realistic... I don't do realistic fantasy stuff... never could. So this fell out of my head yesterday morning... much more satisfying. We shall see if either get done by friday.

option 1 for star belly: the only stipulation is that NO sneetches are allowed. All other boundaries are open. This is a redesign of a very very old drawing from the early 90s. Then, I had a fair concept but poor technique. Maybe this is my chance to set it right... the jury is still out.

preliminary sketch for Drawergeeks due this week. For Halloween: The Universal Studios Famous Monsters. I chose The Mummy. sketch in black ball point.

sketch proposal this week: Henchmen, my solution: Jaws from the Bond films. We shall see how the final comes out.

my original plan was to back out of this. just to not submit. Last time the comic book theme was presented, I fell flat on my face... with 2 submissions yet. Too much anxiety... too much pressure... too much spicy food too late at night. So, I was going to let the much more experienced bunch take a stab (heh) at Wolverine. But insomnia and a clean piece of scratch board added up to a sketch that may show promise. Dunno. We shall see. I will do some tuning and see what happens. A very wise person stated that people take 20 minutes or so to create a drawing and then spend hours or days slowly wrecking what they could have just left alone.
