Tracey noticed that all of the pictures I’d been drawing have all been predominately red. She was right of course except for Abe and Johann but the red in Hellboy and Deadpool more than made up for them.
So then I decided I wanted to draw a character with a bit of colour, also I [...]

I took away some of the impressions I got of the Deadpool character and rushed out another marker drawing, I’m much happier with this over the first one (which was in itself just stretching out to test the feel of the character anyway).
The paper I’m using still isn’t that crash hot but I want to [...]

Deadpool.
Isn’t that the last of the Dirty Harry films? You know the one with Liam Neeson, Jim Carrey and a Guns’N’Roses song?
That’s The Deadpool.
Ah right.
I don’t know much about the Marvel character Deadpool, I know that he’s got some of Wolverine’s mojo and he is an assassin. I read a little about him [...]

Johann is probably my favourite character from the Mignola universe behind Hellboy himself. Visually he’s an interesting character in that you have to portray expression through gestures rather than facial expressions. He obviously looks a look different in the movie too for those of you who only have that experience of him (his [...]

Continuing on with my Hellboy theme using my new markers I followed this up with Abe Sapien. Abe is a weird guy to draw because looking at the reference material no two artists do him the same way. So it’s hard to get a good idea of what he looks like at different [...]

Zen Habits mentioned this via his Twitter feed and asked what everyone thought of it, I’d never heard of Posterous and was slightly intrigued, enough to do as it suggested and just email a message through to see what the site would do with it.
You see Posterous is a blogging platform with a slight difference, [...]

The scan really doesn’t do this image justice which is a shame because it came up really well in reality. The colours are slightly off when it’s been processed by the scanner.
Anyway, I bought some colour markers because I wanted to try out some professional quality markers as opposed to the cheap and nasty [...]

This generated the ida for this cartoon that will be on their blog sometime [...]

Every time just lately I go hunting for an blank art book to draw in I always seem to be picking this one book up which has awful, textured paper that is completely wrong for what I want it for!
But for some reason I keep on settling down and using the bloody stuff.
Yes it is [...]
