CHARACTER DESIGN
























Phew! Nearly forgot to post today....

Allow me to blow your mind; Drawing comics ain't easy. Don't get me wrong, i love it, but there's so much work that goes into every page; a lot of it never gets seen. Still though, it needs to be done. Was working on a side-project recently, and though all is well so far with it, some things have been dropped from it. Case in point, this design for a superhero character. While working on the project things changed so this design for a Batman/Midnighter-esque character fell by the wayside. Still though, i liked this original concept sketch and thought the costume worked well so it was worth showing here. Shame i'll never get to actually draw it more but sure, what can you do? Them's the breaks.

That's a JP Leon inspired glove if ever I saw one. Nice stuff, I like the thumb print on his stomach.

Stop whining about how hard drawing comics is. Try it with a full time job, a wife/child and NO TALENT

You have a child?!

Stop complaining about having no talent Bob. Try having an amazing amount of talent and being a tortured genius because of it.

Hey David, 'Daredevil' gives me an idea...

Thompson; guilty as charged. Think that's the first chunky glove i drew. I've drawn many more since.
