"Tall Tales" Paul Bunyan Variant Cover

An image I could use as a variant cover for the PB book I have in mind... I want to do it in more of a watercolor style, this can be a bonus image.

Hearts & Iron Webstrip "Stronger" p.3 Rough

With Carl's encouragement, John and he go on a nighttime spree of strength. John pumps up with a parked semi, much to the surprise of the sleeping driver.

Hearts & Iron Webcomic #58 Rough

Picking up from the most recent H & I strip. Carl and John invite aspiring fighter Diego to accompany them to a gay club.  I had showed the last strip to someone not in the gay scene and he commented that the guys looked out of place in the club. I continued with that thought here...

Dad's Glory Years - page 2b

A jock dad becomes a super muscleman. Text by Dredlifter. I went over the scene again and wanted to show the precise way Chad was stroking - so I did an extra page between pages 2 and 3. Those are shown below for context.

"Steeltown" Early Comic

A comic I had done 20 years ago for a publication - not sure if it was ever used. Found these pages again and scanned them. It's early work and I can see awkwardness and restraint in the drawing - at the time I don't think I knew there was a macro subculture. The character gets bigger at the end, but at the time I was too uncomfortable with depicting that. But, here it for the sake of history.

H & I #6 "The King of Stones" Character sketches

Some rough ink sketches of probable scenes with Celt John and Norse Carl dueling... partly inspired by seeing "The Northman."

Coaches and Jock Macro II

Continuing from the last page where the wrestling and football coach grew and then were joined by the wrestling jock. 3 more pages coming.

Massive John

I drew John with more muscle mass - he's the modern Herakles, most muscular man in the world, should be really freaky. Makes him look shorter though, and he's very tall.

Giant Foreman issue #2 Cover Sketch

I'm already thinking about what a next issue of the Foreman would be about... him showing the power of his 12 foot plus body. A rough pencil sketch.

Herc in the Gym

Going through my old drawings and found these two pages, I think from the nineties, before I'd published my comics. Feeling lonely and so imagined this happening...

Paul B Campfire Sketch

Another practice watercolor piece of what would be the opening scene in the book... the lumberjacks sitting around a campfire as they await Paul's arrival. Not quite what I hoped for, wanted smoother color transitions.
