I don't feel any pull to work on these characters for real, but they're fun to sketch! I partly feel like I should have made my plan to draw like this from the beginning!

That looks a bit Bernie Wrightson to me for some reason....

eh, i just see crooked proportions. haha. i like the detail though. my comic book art is being fully penciled before i ink with this stuff.

It reminds me of that one artists name......other then Grant Bond, it's just not coming to me!

i sort of wish i had the ego to show off. ha.

Yeah, I am due for some new art myself. And I thought of who that looks like now! Duncan Fegredo? [Did I spell that right?]

never heard of him. i check out his stuff. his looks better. real inks are irreplaceable!

awesome sketch yo...sounds like your having some fun while pushing your skills! Its good to get in that mindset to never hold back...being a ass of a critic has been the best thing for me, and comparing myself ha...

i agree. i need to stop coloring my stuff and focus on creating the best line art possible.

what kind of color would you prefer? like what you have been doing or something like sean galloway? Id be interested in trying to color one of your drawings..nothing extremely render or anything, just simpleness. And what about inking? usually you go right over your pencils right? you still doing it that way?

i'm slowly moving away from coloring penciled pages. i doubt i'll ever drop it completely though. i'd like to see you color something of mine. i work in layers right now though. i did an anthology recently that has mostly traditional inks. could give you one of those pages to mess with. i dig sean's colors. dave stewarts work is my favorite right now.

FYI-- your new paintings are fantastic. you really are improving in leaps and bounds.

send the page this way!! ha, im so ready to try, dave stewart is great, simpleness with great mood. Hopefully i can get this out of my colors.

And thanks for the words! but honestly that's nothing ha, only thing im noticing is im getting little closer to the style that i would want to portray my characters, i want simplified real, and real expression...cross between adam hughes and john singer sargent which is crazy for my to even say ha, but my main inspirations. But how badass would that be to have a proper harley quinn done up like that in a large oil painting..

Duncan DeGrantOz!

HAH!

i need to wait on showing off that comic art. they are doing an online promo deal and slowly releasing info. it should be soon though

what's that?
