"Free Comic Book Day" Sketch Cards - 2010

Here are some sketch cards (baseball card size) I did as a donation for a local comic book store's celebration of this year's  "Free Comic Book Day."  From left to right: Storm, Thor, Rogue, and Wolverine. I was on a Marvel (my childhood favorite) kick.  A Col-Erase Blue and black Verithin were used.

Space Slurp

Usually I blow up my rough pencils (8 1/2" x 11" or so) to 11" x 17" and do clean line work before I scan and color them, but as a test I scanned the original pencils (this time done with a 0.3mm and 0.5mm HB mechanical pencil) as a base for this CG illo. 


While working on this I was listening to an to an interesting audio book called "The Faith Instinct: How Religion Evolved and Why it Endures".   (The author's previous book on genetics and the origin of man called "Before the Dawn: Recovering the Lost History of Our Ancestors" was interesting as well.) Good stuff. :)
