His Purpleness and The King

One more quick tribute sketch for his Mighty Purpleness...Prince. In my top 2 albums of ALL TIME. RIP.



And then I finished the other one I have been working on...because that's what Prince would have wanted me to do. Really excited at how this turned out - Micron pen and prismacolor black and 50% Grey markers, Touchup with Pentel brush pen...

The King.

When Doves Cry

I did not expect my 1300th post to be such a sad one. Prince has left us. He was only 57. That just seems unfair because he had decades of music still left in him. In four months we have lost Bowie and now Prince. Sometimes I just don't know...

All I got for now...

More....The King

Inked the top portion of The King's head last night. Wanted to try out some black and grey on it. So far so good...one pic has more contrast...





He's watching you...

Divine Wind and The King...

Sketches from reference last night...not much time for anything else...

An old photograph of a Japanese kamikaze about to strike an allied ship. Haunting photo...I sketched it...original included at the tail end.











Next, the new Godzilla trailer came out yesterday which means the new Godzilla design is out. Damn it looks narsty!

The new suit...awesome



So I had to draw it...some influence from past designs crept in, but overall I had a lot of fun with this...more to come.

It's just a plane, Focker...

Finished the FW190...I'm not sure if this is the BEST I could have done, but I was pretty much ready to be done with it.

The Wulf...







Small contrast shot...

Lines and Droogies

Productive weekend...got some exercises in, as well as some coloring...

First off, line work exercise on 14 x 17. Fun to do, but time consuming!









And a recent movie watch - featuring the great Malcolm McDowell...Just singin' in the rain...featuring some in progress shots...

Dirt and oil

Detail work on the prop, nose and wheel wells...the wings are still giving me fits, these angles are TOUGH...







And some gelpen practice...Fred Krueger...

Initially I drew him with eyes but I didn't like how it turned out...



So I blackened those out and made him more sinister I think...





More contrast shot...
