Sharing The Load— Currents Comics Issue center spread, in progress

 The progression after pencils for this months strip(s).

The Joker— Digital Painting, Progression

I picked at this one in between a few other things over the last three weeks or so.  I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out...for now.

For the last stage, I really wanted to sharpen his nose back up, and get rid of that super vampiric tooth.  I also boosted the contrast, stuck in the tongue and separated the hairs in his eyebrows and on his head a bit more.

The Clown Prince of Crime, baby.

What the Fridge has to Say

I cleaned out my toolbox today, and found a bunch of buttons. 

Record Dump

My grandparents joint 80th birthday party was on Saturday at my parents house.  It was a good time and a lot of family I haven't seen in a long time were there, including all the aunts and uncles on my moms side.

My Uncle Ray is a huge record collector and he recently moved to Washington from Minnesota.  His home was recently sold, so he brought down a massive selection for anyone who wanted to pick through them.  My Uncle Bob grabbed a few, but most of them went to ME.  This is awesome.

I may need to start a new blog just for Uncle Rays Records...

Real TV Power

I'm finally in a Nielsen family!

The Brow: Dick Tracy's Rogues Continued

I think this litte sketchbook is now reserved for Dick.  The Brow is #2 in my mind of the great Dick Tracy villains.  I'm not a super Tracy geek, but those crooks all have such great design to them.  So memorable. 

 

Flattop

Went to Nessun Dorma this evening to try and take the edge off of ALL the COFFEE I had today...and the rain slick streets inspired me along the way to bust out a Flattop sketch. Forgot he rocks the bow tie, but for being drawn in the half-light of the bar, I'm pretty okay with this one.  

Alright.

Booze, Broads and Bullets

I started rereading this volume of Sin City while my computer ran it's back up.  Marv snuck out of my hands a few minutes later.

The Amazing Bag-Man

Had to do something for fun to unwind.  Hence, the Amazing Bag-Man. 

I was just planning to do a quick sketch, but now I'm thinkin' this may be worthy of returning to and finishing it off.

Dig the stirrups.
