Just bought some new Pigma Micron pens with 0.20 mm line width. Did the initial sketch with the Micron (you can still see the thin lines at the nose, chin and eyes), then went over with a Pilot Precise V5. Pretty fun, never worked with anything so thin before. Did about half of this sketch at work today, finished the rest at home. I referenced an illustration that I saw online. This isn’t my normal style, but it felt right to attempt something untried with these new pens.
Hey Guys,
Here is some of the work I’ve been doing from my newly aquired Burne Hogarth books…let me know what you think.
here are the two rapunzel sketches i promised my little niece Asia…sketched on 11×17 trace paper (the cheap stuff, i just like the wrinkled, tattered, and gritty feel of it)…used col erase and prisma…can’t wait to take my nieces to see the movie
underlays, the rough stuff…
the finals…
Sketched these out while working over at the Maker Faire last weekend. Love the Maker Faire, its like a steam/cyberpunk party mixed with a circus! This was the 4th year I have gone/worked at the Maker Faire, and it was a lot of fun this year!
Hello all,

Here is post #2 of the NYC Series I am posting. In this edition, I looked through tons of photos that I took walking the streets of Manhattan. There is Street Art/ Graffiti/ Murals, all over NYC. Its pretty easy to see how the Art Scene in NYC flurishes, so much of it is out in the open and for all to see. There seemed to be a trend amongst alot of the graffiti I came across in NYC, more thoughtfulness and playfulness. The monkey sketch on the Left is painted on a Childrens Learning Center (grantted its on one of those metal roll up doors…the childrens learning center was in the Projects). There is alot more inspiration to come for the NYC Series so check on back! Enjoy!
here’s a sketch out of a storyboard i’m brainstorming for the rumored ROBOTECH live-action movie that is supposedly in the works.
i was hoping to create a diy trailer teaser in celebration of the movie coming out. how i’m going to do that, i guess we’ll wait and see, right kingsley?
This is post 2 of the Rock Star series of portrait paintings. Steven Tyler was painted for my very close cousin Catrina, who has the painting hanging in her home. As well, I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to hang the first print of this painting in Steven Tyler’s dressing room back in 2002 @ Shoreline Amphitheater. Prior to him going on stage he called my house and I spoke with him for several minutes! Really him! He called to thank me for the gift ( I gave him the print that hung in the dressing room), so he now owns print 1. I thought it was a friend playing a joke, but no, he said….”this is f***ing Steven Tyler man!” I then spoke with his band manager several time after that, regarding Tyler buying the original from me. We planned to meet up when they were in town, I kept in contact with them for a few years, but have since lost contact. Hopefully he still has the print…I like to think its hanging in his house somewhere. If your watching our Lineweights page Steven Tyler…hit me up! Enjoy.
Hey Fellas,
Here is another portrait, this time from a pic. I found it hard to capture the likeness of the pic, any pointers? Other than that I also couldn’t get her to look at the camera/viewer, any tips would be appreciated. I was going to use this as an underlay as I started with a verithin on trace paper, but I ended up just working it up with prisma. I may try to simplify it again on bond paper. Let me know your thoughts and critics guys, as always please be honest! its the only way we will all get better!
Here is the first sketch in a series of sketches that I am working on, based on photographs I took in New York City. We only had 4 days in NYC Manhattan, so sketching time was limited. But I did take a ton of photos, capturing little scenes I wanted to sketch out. This one is the beginning of the NYC Library…scenes all over town like this made me realize why NYC was such a huge inspiration to Comic Book artist since the very beginning. This one is for you Gotham.
As everyone knows I’m a huge fan of Disney/Pixar, and I’m totally excited about their new film Rapunzel…so I’m roughing out a sketch for my little niece (the Boss), Asia…it’ll be a two part sketch with the following and a shot of her looking out of the tower with her hair flowing down..i’ll update the post once i finish…unfortuately i’m gonna be outta town this holiday weekend…so here’s an early look at what i got so far…
Hey Guys,
Been awhile since my last, but I’ll be dropping more stuff from now on… working on sketching the beauty that is the woman. Inspired by Daniel Simon’s pin up style sketches of women. Let me know your feedback (honest stuff only, you can’t hurt my feelings!) Oh I just added a few layers in photoshop but also posted the base sketch. I tried to make here look sexy, but she looks scared…haha
