Lt. Uhura sketch

Psst... it's a sneaky peek preview of my next contribution to Spitballin'. Wreck-It Ralph week hasn't wrapped yet, but once it does Stark Trek week kicks in and I'll be posting this over there, too. Don't tell nobody. This is a between me and you deal.

Batwoman sketch

I drew this in my sketch book to cover pink marker that leaked through from the previous drawing (rather than cut the page out which I've done in the past). I figured strategic black and red would cover it nicely. It did. And then when I coloured this I forgot to put scrap paper behind it again. I'm a real square.

Miscelanious Spitballs

Some recent-ish contributions of mine to the group sketch blog Spitballin' Comics. Here's Japanese super robot Grendizer dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight.

Timothy Drake, Robin III. At some point when I was drawing this I thought it was going to be amazing. It turned out to not really be all that amazing. Oops.

Our Halloween theme this year was icons of 80s horror. Though I've never seen a Friday the 13th film that actually had Jason Voorhees in it, I drew Jason Voorhees anyway.

Darwyn Cooke-inspired Parker from the Parker books and graphic novel. I've just told you everything I know about Parker.

My sketch book take on an Aqua-classic. At one point I was going to colour the whole background but then I remembered Copics are expensive.

Classic 60s Wasp from the moleskin sketch book. I thought about printing out some of these but I'd really need a scanning ninja to do it properly for me. They always look so much nicer in the book.

I think this is one of the great superhero costumes, by the way, though I recognize it would look pretty out of  place nowadays. When Janet inevitably comes back from the dead I hope she brings back the thorn-head look.

Hellcat sketch

Did this in my sketchbook while at a comics event last week that turned out to be kind of dead. I picked Patsy Walker because I thought her costume would be really easy to do out of my head. Still got some details wrong, but you can't win 'em all!

Animated Joker commission

I don't normally (ever) do commissions where I'm aping another style, but I accepted this one on a whim. I learned a lot, mostly from what it was clear I'd done wrong once it was all done, though. Still, it was a fun one.

September 2012 Spitballs

Swamp Thing! Nightcrawler! Ben Grimm! After a summer hiatus, Spitballin' Comics came back in full force in September, and these were my contributions for the month. If you're not familiar with Spitballin' you should check it out--10 or so Toronto and GTA-based illustrators doing the best we can and working out twice a day.

Harley Quinn sketch

I don't really like this but I did draw this and it's important that you know the whole me. I wish you could see where the mallet-handle-nose attaches most of all. Mistakes were made.

Disco Nightwing Commission

(Click to embiggen.)

I love it when I get commissioned to do characters I have a lot of affection for. Grayson's always a favorite, even in his silly original Nightwing duds (which isn't really that bad a costume outside of the Luke Cage neckline). 

Big Barda Commission

Always a favorite.
