The Punisher: Warzone are we going to be disappointed?

Take a look at the newly released Punisher: Warzone trailer:

Did the trailer look a little like Hitman to you too?  Garth and I were talking about the trailer and he said straight away that they should call it Hitman 2.  I guess it’s the two guns sequence that they appear to be pushing.
Me I think [...]

Shellhead pencils - inking went all wrong

Oh well unfortunately this scan is all that’s left of this drawing because I stuffed up inking it.  I wanted to use a light brown pen to do all the actual shadow and I just completely ruined it, the pen was not very good at the same time which is still my fault as I [...]

This sums up how I feel about all this

A while ago Marvel comics ‘killed’ Captain America and had him replaced unsurprisingly with his former sidekick Bucky (I think that’s the character, I don’t really read Captain America, I’m an Avengers man and don’t follow his individual story lines really).  Well what is even more unsurprising is that after a while and a new [...]

More Iron Man sketchings

I was doing some more experimental sketching with Iron Man (old school Iron Man) and couldn’t resist adding a bit of colour to the drawing above as I liked how it came out and it was rewarding that it was only a five minute quick sketch using that giant pencil (that I love!).
I started off [...]

The hand won’t be closed in the final piece but I’m just trying out some stuff, this was done with the giant pencil [...]

Marvel Ruins

Up until two days ago I have never even heard of Marvel Ruins until Rol made reference to it the other day. I really love the What If type stories that have our favourite heroes facing their darkest hours and then everything actually going wrong for them.
This is exactly what Marvel Ruins explores, what [...]

Hellboy II and the right hand of doom

I’m not really sure what drew me to the character of Hellboy, probably the brilliant artwork by Mike Mignola, actually I’m sure it is.  What I expect kept me coming back was the surprisingly droll humour, the real world mythology mixing within the rich tapestry of the BPRD world and of course I still can’t [...]

An aspect of the Iron Man character that I like

One of the aspects of the Iron Man character that I quite like is the evolution of the armour.  To be completely honest I probably prefer what is known in some circles as the ‘classic armour’ that appeared throughout the 80s, even over the movie version (although I don’t think that classic armour would’ve worked [...]

Captain America casting rumour

After the success of Iron Man Marvel has announced that Captain America is now on the cards and Cinema Blend is reporting that the front runner to play Cap is Matthew McConaughey.
I can live with that.

DOAN U KNOE HOO IM?

Ok I couldn’t resist running the title of the piece through a LOLcats translator!  That site cracks me up on a daily basis.
Once again this stems from an idea I had floating around in my head - there are a couple of variations in there as well so this may not be the end of [...]
