robyn hood and the merry men - the PUNK BAND

I've had this sketch idea in my head since Issue 2. Glad I had time to bang this one out between projects. Robyn Hood & The Merry Men sounds like a band to me... like a punk band or something...They keep coming up in the script (obviously) and I just kept seeing something like this. IF Robyn from Zenescope's Robyn Hood WAS a singer for a band, it would be a kick ass punk outfit. There probably is a band with that name... anyhow, this was a ton of fun. Back to work!

06222012 - legend of korra

i really have been enjouing the legend of korra on nickelodeon. I decided I would try a quick sketch piece thing earlier- my intention was to give her my "spin" - but i think in the process I just sort of aped the style of the show. I like no hatching and little to no spot blacks in this type of work ... anyhow, I was so happy with the pencils I thought I would just ink and color it quickly.

i've been working on pages - and my internet connection has been pretty much hit or miss, so I'm a little disappointed with the frequency of my posts. However, I thought I'd share some random sketches and roughs from the last few weeks.

Frozen Beach Studios was on Battledrawn Radio http://www.battledrawnradio.com/frozen-beach-studios/ this week. I totally sound like a dork, but it was really awesome to talk about what the studio has been up to, and geek out about comics.

hellboy sketch jan 2012

did this quick sketch in between pages and video game art - i didn't spend a ton of time on it - but i like it - it's been a while since i've drawn hellboy, or sketched for fun-

so more drawings. I'm still working on Metal Locus- I'm really having a fun time on the current issue I'm working on (not pictured). The pages posted above are from issues 2 and 3, and below that is an updated sketch of elona.

6192011-pheonix in progress part 3

getting there. think I'm gonna set this one aside for a bit to get my eyes fresh - back to the pages.

6192011

been working hard on metal locus - i did however get a chance to do some sketching this weekend while waiting in line @ AT&T - you know how long it takes at a phone store- anyhow I liked this sketch enough I think i'm going to finish it in photoshop. I'll post updates throughout the process... I've always thought jean from x-men was a cool character -much more interesting as pheonix tho.

sketches - thoughts - more cyborgs

i did this sketch yesterday while having a mental block on a page for Metal Locus... i dunno. while i feel the figure is pretty generic, and a bit redundant in regards to some old sketches- I do like the colors and style. It's reminiscent of some of my older work that predates most of my comic efforts. I think I like my old coloring sensabilities and need to do more figure sketches and spend more time in junk yards...I wonder what a book with sort of washy watercolor type coloring mixed with comic art would look like... I'm sure there's a ton out there...

yours truly is having a surprisingly irritating day- thought I'd post some art to see if that helps...

at least all my limbs are organic... see, there is a bright side. aargh to the 10thdegree.

Above you will find some concept sketches. While working on other projects, I've been cooking up this book for a some time - tentatively titled "The End" - If you've been following my blog, you might have seen some early sketches and doodles which have, at this point, taken on a life of their own in my head. I'm pretty horrible with words, but I'd say if the wizard of oz, silent hill, budhism, lost, and string theory had a baby, this book would be it. I have been joined by a number of friends and creators to help make sense of the tapestry of ideas, images and themes I would like to see in this book . We've been tossing plot ideas, sketches, and different sources of inspiration around these last few months. Everyone has other projects on their plate, so this book will probably be a long time in the works, but so far, I am very excited about the progress we have made thus far. I love drawing, but this part of the comics process, the part where new ideas are born and tossed back and forth, and evolve - is probably my favorite part. It reminds me of playing music - or a great conversation.

Doles sketch
