BLANKA ATTACKSSS!!!

So last year, I decided to throw together a 5 page sequential to show how I handle storytelling in different situations. Editors want to see how you handle slow scenes, background, action, etc. By no means does it compare to any of the people that I look up to, and I'm actually slightly embarrassed to show it, but this is an art blog and I want to show off everything from the crappy to the slightly less crappy. The thing I was impressed with is the fact that I inked all 5 pages in one night. Even the drawing style was different for me, but I was just experimenting and trying to have fun. Note to self: NEVER pull an all-nighter when you work a full-time job doing graphic design. My brain was absolute mush.

There's no words here, but it's a basic story that anybody can follow (or at least I REALLY hope so). Take a guess at what video game I had been playing a few days prior to drawing the monster.

Oy.....Stinkfist Colors

So....yea...I know I said I'd be getting back to posting regularly, and I guess I really screwed the pooch on that one, huh? Well, here is an onslaught of colors for the Stinkfist inks I posted a while back. I was having some fun experimenting with abstract color and different techniques of digital color. Now that I have a better grasp of it, the actual comic will have a more subdued pallet. Some pages work, but there's just a ton of stuff I've learned since I did this that will make the book look that much better when we start pumping 'em out.

In other news, I'm really going to try and start posting my sketches and process stuff. As much as it pains me to look at the random doodles in my sketchbook, I think it'll help me keep track of my progress as an artist as well as give you insight into what's going on in this oddly-shaped head of mine. I'll may even find sketches from old books and put 'em up if I can stand to look at them long enough. Anyways...hope you guys enjoy the pages.
