The Battle Part 1 of 4

Hello friends! Today I'm going to share something awesome with you. Would you guys like to see? OooKay! (In my DJ Lance impersonation voice).

I will be showing you guys how I do a piece, from sketch to completion. And what better way to show such a process than the 2 kids shows that have influenced little ones all across the world. Granted, Sesame Street has been around since before most of us were even thought of, but Yo Gabba Gabba is holding it's own in the place of little hearts.

Basically, I've always wanted to see Sesame Street and Yo Gabba Gabba go at it, Capcom style. So, I sketched it up, and I'm going to show you guys how I do it, in 4 steps. From loose sketch, to tightened pencils, Final touches with Illustrator inks and colors. I hope you guys will enjoy this one!

5DA2 - 3 Strangely Odd Broad

Yo! It's day 3, and I've been incredibly busy... hence the late postage. This one is kind of a play on one I did a while back, called Intruder (the one with the guy stealing the TV)... I liked the pose on the girl, but i didn't add any details or anything. So on this one I wanted to give her a bit more details and all that jazz.

Got some CRAZY stuff coming in the next few days.. enjoy!

Anyways, the first of the series is Hayato Vs Vader. Had a lot of fun with this one, done with messy pencils and bristol board, 11x14.

Sorry mickey

So... Felicia needs to eat. Mickey thought he could just coast, hidy-ho-ing his neighbors and what not.  Happens to stroll by Felicia, who just lost her gig as a dancer at the night club. She has been surviving off of cup noodles w/shrimp, has an expensive car payment... you get the idea. She's hurtin, and hungry. Mickey couldn't have picked a worse day to leave his hole.

Done on 8.5x11 cardboard stock, pen and ink w/white pencil.

Original Art is Available HERE for purchase

Spidey

Man I LOVE drawing this character. So well designed. This piece was mad fun to work on. I'm starting to play around more with traditional media, taking a break from that dang computer!!! I still gotta use one at work, but when I want to wind down and relax, this seems to do the trick.

You can pick up this original piece HERE at my store!

Hulkness

This dude is always lookin angry. You could take this guy to Disneyland, or any other happy place and do you think he'd crack a smile? Hellz naw. Sure is fun to draw though.

Did this one on 11x17 Cardboard Stock, with pen and ink and white colored pencil.

It's for sale at my store HERE if you wanna own some original art!!
