here's some Catwoman, Jim Balent's catwoman to be exact- Jim Balent rules i loved his work for purgatori(check out my avatar that's the first issue and my all time favorite comic book cover) so i had to get some of his earlier work- yeah and that was my first paneling- i used an an actual pencil hard lead- i'm able to get a cleaner tone than a mechanical pencil though i still like the mechanical pencil Attachments:

Here's some pre-historic animals- for quite a while now i plan to put dino-birds kinda hidden in the background of my artwork(Jet Moto of coures), in the jungles and forests- yeah i decided to do them 'cause my sister asked if i could use my calligraphy skills to write some Christmas cards and i thought to spice 'em up a bit i should draw little pre-historic critters to go with the cards- yeah so Merry Christmas dudes!

And also i got a lot of books for Christmas and comics so I have plenty to study from- Bernie Wrightson rules- now if i can only get my hands on Frankenstein- it costs like 200$! so now after years of studying mostly human anatomy i'm now more able to study comic book art with more focus and everything else!

here's a study from burne hogarth (one of my teachers i got all his books)- like he said there's no shortcut around it- it's just careful planning and painstaking execution- this helps with understanding design,composition And this judge dredd is one that i did today and added more detail than the original had and gave it i guess you could say my "look" to it- which is a combination of Todd Mcfarlane,Jim Balent,and Bernie Wrightson among others but those 3 are my main influence p.s. my lines are straighter-they just comes out wavy for some reason Attachments:

Check this out guys- i improvised on the leather jacket and it came out better than the original i really dig that style of rendering leather i was trying to do it with sable and i could pull it off but it's much easier with the dip pen. One of the things that you have to understand is how to Abstract some of the stuff--the unending secret paths of white paths and lines that are so close to touching but don't and working in "zig Zags" there's a lot to explain but just know i'm Gettin' It- Judge Dredd and hearing bernie wrightson talking about this stuff really helps understand and also Todd i mean just like he said all that artsy mess and black lines everywhere don't mean anything but boy it Looks great and that's what separates copying a picture exactly and and making something unique-- it's like you're in your own world when you try to figure out where to put the ink in so yeah take another look at that judge dredd i did and see how it's abstracted Attachments:

Yeah and i got this new ink called black star high carb from dr.ph martin this seems to be the strongest ink Yet-- it's super black and it really is resistant to water- i just gotta keep cleaning the nib often with alcohol i put some alcohol in a dropper to speed up the process- so i just lay down the black and i can watercolor right on top of it- i tried it and it works great
