Here's the SDCC IRON MAN promo without dress! Drawn by Gleb Melnikov and colored by me. I'll be coloring both the INCARCERATED and WAR MACHINES arcs too!
@pqcomics.bsky.social is one of the best people I will ever know, an amazing professor, and talented artist! He also wrote a book on perspective that's really informative and easy to follow. Highly recommend it if you're looking to learn perspective and expect this demo will be just as great!
Apparently I've not posted any of my creepy lady sketches in a looong while. It's nice to draw as well as color even if they aren't all hits.
Finished coloring an issue of EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN today. Decided to draw the main characters tonight in my own voice rather than color someone else's line. These kids have really grown on me. ❤️
Doing covers with @ryagawa.bsky.social has become a normal thing for us and I love it! She posted the dressed cover a while back so here it is undressed. We did a second one for this title which hasn't been released as far as I know. Keep an eye out for it!
The guy bending over was a coworker. That's me in my armor. I was a TK in the 501st.
Once upon a time I worked at an ad agency and would send out silly images via email to let studiomates know I was getting a sandwich for lunch. Often people couldn't get away so I'd take orders and bring them back to be nice. Just found some of them. Good times. Good friends.
Did you know some Star Wars comics are colored by a retired 501st TK/SL? Well, it's true! 'Tis me! Happy Star Wars Day! REBEL!
Thoroughly enjoyed the finale to DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN and had time to do a little bit of drawing today. Looking forward to S2! #daredevil #mattmurdock #punisher #frankcastle #marvelcomics #Marvel
Found myself at a cafe this weekend with my laptop and 30 minutes to burn so took on the McFarlane #Batman from @colorjam.bsky.social. The variety of line in these #ColorJam posts is a lot of fun to play in!
Morning sketch while waiting on pages and flats. CSP for line. PS for color. Aimed for a "dwindling campfire in cloudy moonlight" vibe. When the campfire dies, so do you.
@colorjam.bsky.social has moved to Bluesky and is open to anyone! #Colossus is my favorite X-Man so I did the Adams/Colossus entry to cool down... from coloring #eXceptionalXmen. HAHAHAHAHAA #ColorJam
Drew this back when I was coloring CAPTAIN AMERICA: SENTINEL OF LIBERTY. Reality is we don’t have heroes who are going to come and magically save us. We have to take up the shield ourselves. #CaptainAmerica #SentinelofLiberty
So many more EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN covers to post. Really behind on doing so but here's a great variant for issue 7! Line by @ryagawa.bsky.social and my color. #EmmaFrost #KittyPryde #XMen #ExceptionalXmen #MarvelComics #Marvel
Who wants more EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN covers?! This is for issue 8! Line by @carmencarnero.bsky.social and my color. #MisterSinister #KittyPryde #XMen #ExceptionalXmen #MarvelComics #Marvel
Here's the art for our ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN #14 variant cover! Line by @carmencarnero.bsky.social and my color. #SpiderMan #MaryJane #UltimateSpiderMan #MarvelComics #Marvel
It's 10PM on #ColoristAppreciationDay so if any other colorists are still working after putting in a solid day? Stop it already. Go chill the rest of the night and prioritize yourself with some self-care this weekend. You've earned it. ❤️
Working on #2 of this series right now. Luke Ross (is he on Bluesky yet?!) is doing some of the best work he's ever done and we've done tons of STAR WARS together. Check out DARTH MAUL, YODA, JANGO FETT, and THRAWN from us while you wait for this series to drop!
The drawing bug bit laaate last night. Gojira's Mea Culpa video initiated the idea but so many current events inspired it too. #eattherich
"First Rule of Raggedy Ann Club? Don't talk about Raggedy Andy." I really don't know. I'm so sorry. 🤣
Been too long since I did a warm down drawing and might have one more in me tonight.
THE FORGED Vol 3 TPB is out today! Script by Greg Rucka and Eric Trautmann. Lines by Mike Henderson. Letters by Ariana Maher. Edited by Alejandro A. Arbona. Colors by me.
