Savage Dragon

Here is a series of images showing the evolution of a single drawing. There are a lot of things wrong with this but over all I’m happy with the final image.

I posted this at two different forums and the drawing garnered a lot of attention, which was great. I had a lot of helpful comments and positive reaction. The fist link is to the Image Comics message board where this thread received a comment from Erik Larsen, Creator of the Savage Dragon and Publisher, Image Comics. It was a great honor to now that he liked the drawing. Below is the link to the thread, check it out and feel free to post your thoughts if you like.

The second link is to one of the greatest comic book art and discussion communities on the net today, Digital Webbing. This thread managed to score 5 pages of comments and responses even though most of them are mine. There are some really cool dudes there that have said that they would ink the stuff for me and can’t wait to see how it comes out. Again, check it out and leave a comment if you’re down.

And finally if you don’t want to mess with any of the message board stuff, here are the images as the drawing progressed.

A little Something new

Since I have told absolutely no one that this blog exists, I can't really expect any feedback here. But now I have a new forum signature and I plan on being a little more active in the online my work.

I thought that I would share what I did at work today since I decided not to work for the company. This is a character called the FLY.

Originally created by the legendary talents of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, in 1959, the FLY would not see the brighter side of the comic book industry (unlike his brother Spider-Man), with short lived publishing runs plagueing the character’s popularity, the FLY was left in relative obscurity, with his most recent publishing venture lasting under 2 years within the DC imprint !mpact Comcis.

The Fly is a character that I think has a great deal of potential and I have taken the liberty of trying to update him a bit for the purpose of submitting a proposal to Archie Comics requesting the revival of not only this character but a whole cavalcade of great heroes that have a history running just as deep as any of the Marvel or DC crew dating back to a publishing company called MLJ better known today as Archie Comics. Many of the MLJ characters inspired the creation and success of a lot of today’s top heroes and I just want to see that these MLJ heroes get a piece of the Pie that they helped to bake.

If you want to know more about the FLY/Spider-Man controversy, check out http://www.simoncomics.com/ for the full scoop, you will never believe the story when you see it.

Anyway, this is what I decided to do at work today instead of servicing the company.

Let me know what you think and feel free to rate the image if you like. If you want to know more about the proposal for the FLY just ask, though I don’t really have that much together at the moment.

Just a note, the color image is what what was done today, the other pwncil drawings are a couple of months old at this point.
Thanks
