It’s Gojira… Run, kid!

I mentioned before that I’ve been drawing from a lot of Japanese publications, since I can’t go to life drawing sessions due to the pandemic. When I see…

Beano and Cecil!

I’m not a regular on Beano anymore, but I get the occasional request. This is from an upcoming joke page about golf, set up as a putt-putt course….

Thru the non-life drawing looking glass

Another cosplay, photo based, non-life drawing.

Hulk want banana!

I posted a sketch of the Hulk not so long ago, and usually I draw a bigger version of the old TV Hulk. When I try to make…

No figure drawing? Go sleep it off

You know the drill by now. Anyway, in the original photo, the girl had an additional, outer skirt, made of something like chiffon. I didn’t like it, so…

Gol-ly Sarge, Shazam!

More non-figure drawing, figure drawing.

Back to sketching from photos, and for this I tried to get a little more intimate in terms of space. Often with figure drawing I’ll keep back, like…

Suped up!

I’m never happy with my work, but then I’ve never known an artist who was worth a damn, that really was. I go back and forth between wanting…

Not everything is the Mona Lisa

‘Cause not every drawing is a success. Here’s one that I felt I never got the face right. The reason I picked this shot from a Japanese magazine…

We’ve recast for Beano.

As I mentioned on Monday, there was a missing clown design when I started to draw the joke page for this week’s issue. I had a place holder…

Giddyup!

Here are some boards I did for a spot intended to advertise an equestrian show in DC. Don’t get to draw horses very often, but I’m not against…

Oh, just one more thing.

Columbo could solve any crime, but could he tell a joke? I got to do a gag page for this week’s Beano, which involved a circus theme. The…

Ravishing “life” drawing of Raven

Another not life drawing, this time I made it Raven from Teen Titans. The pic was a girl drying her hair by a pool, and I really just…

What a life… drawing.

More photo based “life” drawing. No hero assignment, just trying to get things to look right. Her hair was just draped in the photo, so I added some…

Breathe easy!

Another set of storyboards for the teen focused, anti-smoking campaign.  

Jumping for Jubilee!

More non-life, life drawing. A lot of the mega volume comics in Japan (Shonen Weekly, Big Comic, etc…) will have a couple of pages with pretty girls at…

What a character!

This was from years ago at Ogilvy, where we did an anti-scam campaign, that included a website with an interactive game; which was in Flash, that’s how old…

It’s eventful, doing event renderings.

Again, these things show a client what launch might look like. Some are huge, some are smaller traveling set ups. These were also, all done pre-social distancing; so…

All fleshed out for her Beano appearance!

Here are the colors for the editor reader guest, as well as the colors to the opening panel of the strip. Remember I said I had to draw…

All Tricky-ed out on this one!

Here are the colors for the stuff I posted on Monday. If you think of it, Gilligan’s Island is a live action comic strip, because they all end…
