The final inks to HARLEY LOVES JOKER

Notes- I really rebuild the face to get more of a sexy look and a pronounced nose, this worked well in my opinion – I also really felt the line weight and solid blacks evoked a style that I love from the old U.K. 2000 A.D. Books from the early 80’s. If you are familiar with that- chime in to give your opinion!

I also changed up the Heart’s in the middle and just made it say LOVES- it was unclear to the public what I was trying to get accross- so it had to change!

Overall, I felt a solid composition and execution on a fun commission for a client!

The final inks for my Thanos Commission. The inks really brought out the details and made this piece pop. The facial texture really did it for me, I liked this from the major composition and layout to the final details. I tried to take my old school Role Playing Game inking style to a Marvel Hero, I think it worked well to take a new take on an old character.

Another cool commission from a fan who asked me to do an interpretation of DC Comic’s Harley Quinn, the girlfriend of the Joker. I was surprised to see her new costume was more of a roller derby girl as opposed to her old Batman the animated series jester outfit, but hey, times are changing! I may tweak some of the facial expression, but at the same time, I like the odd expression that came with the smile and stare I was going for in a psychotic killer’s psychotic girlfriend….

Enjoy!

Just a short and sweet Thanos Commission I’m doing for a fan I met at a store signing. He is collecting different artists doing their own interpretations of the classic Marvel villain. I’ll always identify Thanos with the following four items as visual keys…

#1- The Infinity Gauntlet

#2- The 70’s Anime inspired helmet

#3- the psycho eyes and ever present smile

#4- the wacked out ribbed chin

I put all of them in the piece, and had a nice overlap of hand over face and shoulder to build depth. The piece ended up being a fairly simple, but effective composition to get what I remembered about Thanos into one coherent pinup.

A quick and really cool commission I did at the Cleveland Comic Con for a fan- he tasked me to draw something I’ve wanted to draw for a while, and had not- I decided to give him the mutating dog from 1982’s THE THING. And I think I’ll revisit this in full pen and ink glory in the months to come. Stay tuned.

They say when life gives you Lemons, make Lemonade- well September 2013 has been alot of doing shows and traveling, and the Infect Scranton Con was, well to put it politely, a rough show (facility, attendance etc.) however, I was lucky to have local tattoo celebrity Lacey Terenzio work the show with me as her first non tattoo convention, and we did a zombie portrait of her and her son Danny for their living room, which I felt really turned out nice for a living dead “life” portrait.

I gotta admit, my mom wouldnt be this cool to commission this work, much less get it for the family room! Enjoy
