A pencil illustration of Captain America unmasking the Red Skull, his arch-nemesis. A powerful comic icon, Captain America has been a symbol of American patriotism for many years and even rivals the iconic nature of Superman when it comes to the comic world. Also the hero of a new live action movie, he is certainly a favorite of any patriot and comic lover. Captain America and Red Skull are copyright and trademark of Marvel Comics...

The Lord is a Warrior

Posted by on Nov 27, 2011 in illustrations | 0 comments

This was a piece I did for a friend who gave me the idea back in College. I believe the idea originated from the book of Ezekiel, where it describes the LORD as a Warrior who slaughters all those who oppose Him. Below him is the blood of his enemies. “The LORD is a Warrior” is what Moses and the Israelites proclaimed when God drowned the pursuing Egyptians in the Red Sea. Now I know what you’re thinking, “Whoa! That’s pretty crazy view of God.” True, but it’s a realistic view. People tend to think of God just as a” loving” God, but not...

Taken from the book of Matthew, this image illustrates a very promising verse in the Bible:  “Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven” (18:10).

We can actually learn a lot from children for it’s their kind of...

A single image taken from the Robin Hood foundation animated comic, using their rendition of Robin Hood. As I explain in detail in the actual panel post, working on an animated comic takes much forethought, because you may wish to animate certain objects in the final animation, however, if things aren’t already detached or broken apart, as in the hand or the cape seen here, it may be much harder to animate them while still attached to a character. Anything that moves you may want to draw separate. If it’s not, you’ll be left with a void space, or lines that don’t...

Robin Hood Panel

Posted by on Oct 31, 2011 in illustrations | 0 comments

W ork done on an animated comic in conjunction with Studio Mercenary, and Sole Suspect studios, for the Robin Hood foundation located in New York city. Looking at the final line work here you may be a bit confused as to what is actually going on and why some things are transparent. If you are at all familiar with animated comics you can understand the complexity that is involved. For instance, what you are actually looking at is three separate layers all placed together to give you the full view of the panel. The layers are separated into background, mid-ground, and foreground; and...
