Weekend Pinup—Springtime Betty

Told you another springtime Betty was in the works!  I’ve attached the first drawing, which I was not as crazy about, and the original piece, which I would love to revisit someday.

WIP Bonus

A little extra something for the Legion. Last weekend I made some templates for comic pages, and I wanted to try it out. So I did a little work on a project I’m hoping to be able to focus on later this year—another long unfinished one that I still get asked about. The pinup is one I did to tease it back in November, but I don’t think it ever got posted. Anybody recognize it?

WIP Update

Yeah, it’s not Wednesday but I thought I should give you a little update. There were some disruptions to the routine midweek, but here’s what’s on the digital drawing board these days:

Another springy weekend pinup. Revisiting an older design. I liked the outfit but not the artwork in the original. Flats laid, just needs color details and renders added.

Still picking away at the next character sheet. I think it’s just about ready for some renders and a writeup. We’l...

Weekend Pinup: Spring with Miss Ross

Happy Easter to those who celebrate!  At this time of year I like to draw someone in a nice springy outfit, and this year Silver Age Betty Ross stepped up and said "I got this."

I checked out the first issue of the new Hulk comic.  Wasn't thrilled with the direction of the book as a whole but I was pleased to see the classic Betty represented as what seems to be a visual manifestation of whatever's left of Bruce's conscience.  The dress isn't just some random 60's outfit ...

Bonus Pin-Up: Pink Moon 2022

Despite Luna being our Full Moon subject for the whole year, i couldn’t let a pink moon go by on observed.  I think this one’s a little sexier and a little more sinister than some of my stuff.  What do you think of it?

This panel was harder than I expected.  Still not sure I'm 100% with it but it's definitely an upgrade from the original.  Will be posted with the preceding panels later this moring!!

WIP Wednesday 4-13-22

It’s everyone’s favorite day of the week, WIP Wednesday! Ok maybe not actually, but here’s an update on what I’ve been working on nevertheless.


You’ve seen the results of Thursday’s and Friday’s efforts, as another two JennyBomb panels were posted last weekend.

There’s another full moon this Saturday and that means we’re due for another Luna panel! I hope you folks haven’t minded the slow burn, but things are finally starting to move a little bit t...

Legion Early Look—weekend pinup—Miss Ross

Was pretty pleased with this one, simple as it is, so while it’s perfectly suited for a weekend pinup, I thought  I’d let you Legionnaires get a look a couple of days early.  This dress popped up in the current run of the Incredible Hulk, and seems to be inspired by the one Betty is wearing when she meets the Hulk for the first time way back in Incredible Hulk volume I #1.  I like, it’s springy, and I wanted to do a colored pencil style digital drawing again—it’s been...

Over 20 years later and panel 2B at the top is still one of the better hands I've drawn.  Didn't have to alter that image all that much before inking and coloring.

WIP Wednesday 220406

So, here’s what I’ve been up to this week!

You’ve seen the latest updates for JennyBomb and Cro-Magna’s revenge. Above you’ll see me trying to fill in the background for the next panel. I’ve finished inking the next commission, and gotten a start on pencilling the one after that. Also over the weekend I did a pass at pencils for the next Luna Full Moon piece, which will be here before you know it!

Tomorrow I’ll work on the next JennyBomb installment, and Friday I...

JennyBomb 2022 2A Full Res and Textless

Finally moving forward on this again!  Here's the next panel at full res, with and without text, along with the original.  As you can see from the dialogue, I've changed the direction of the narrative a little bit.  Originally this was presented as an initial TF but I've revised it to be more established.

Enjoy!

JennyBomb 2022 page 7 Base Colors

As a special preview for the Legionnaires, here’s the inks and base colors for the final frame of JennyBomb! Scroll down to see the full figure and the original pencils from 200 years ago! Think it’s an upgrade?


Still a lot to do on this—in addition to the shading, there’s a lot of background detail to be added! But that’s for another time—. Look for the continuation of the sequence where we left off to be posted very soon!

Commission: AprilHulk!

No April Fool's joke here!  I would have posted this a little sooner, but with April (the month) only a few days away, I couldn't resist!

Another recently completed commission, sponsored by an anonymous patron and posted with their permission.  April's probably going to be nostalgic for good ol' mutagen after this.  Enjoy!

Well, this week certainly has gone better after the last two!

Lots of progress! Some of you will have seen one of the results—the profile pic for Gamma Girl’s dark side, the Omegazon, which went up yesterday. Some others will be posting soon, including a new installment of Cro-Magna’s revenge tomorrow and the commission I’ve been working on Friday! Also finished the inks and base colors for the final page of JennyBomb to use a reference for the rest of the sequence, and I...

Weekend Pinup: Miss Blake

I've drawn poor Danger Prone Daphne four times--three recently-- but not once has she been smiling.  Thought I'd fix that.

Despite the seeming obsession with ol' Daph, (must be that redhead hang-up of mine) I do want to tackle the rest of the Scooby Gang at some point.
