HAPPY NEW YEAR - 2015!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR - 2015!!!

Yeah, it's a picture for 2015 done on the last day of 2014.  :-D


I'm a really big fan of Jack Kirby's O.M.A.C. (One Man Army Corps), so I thought I'd do a drawing of him to ring in the new year.

A Happy New Year to All!  :-)

Here are the pencils, which I scanned in and then colored digitally.

This was done with pencil on 9" x 12" Strathmore drawing paper and then colored digitally in Photoshop.

It's a Good Life on the Island of Misfit Toys

It's a Good Life on the Island of Misfit Toys

I always assumed this is what happened to the man who was turned into a Jack-in-the-Box in the excellent Twilight Zone episode "It's a Good Life"...

Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Polaris

Polaris


Here is the original entry for the Polaris to the "Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe".

And here is my entry to the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Redux.  

* * *


STEP ONE:  I created a New Document 900 x 1,500 pixels in PhotoShop.  In this case, I forgot to save an early picture of this one, so here's the finished black-and-white digital drawing.

* * * 


STEP TWO:  I did some flat colors with a MULTIPLY Layer, and then went over top with some highlights and shadows with a New Layer.

Created digitally in Photoshop.
