The Ultimate Battle

Here's another Coloring Test of Batman versus Superman, based on the Dark Knight Returns storyline.  I found this awesome image that I have never seen before penciled by Jim Cheung and inked by Mark Morales yesterday on deviantart.com, and I knew I just had to color it.

SNIKT!

I just came across this amazing line art by the great Leinil Yu that he posted recently.  It's of the Variant Cover for the Age of Ultron 7.  I wondered what it would look like colored so I thought that I might as well practice my coloring on it.  Still trying to find my niche, but I had a lot of fun on this one.  Painted in Photoshop.  Below is my process as usual in an animated GIF form.  Enjoy!

Animated GIF of my process in Photoshop

Iron Connor!

Here is a quick Iron Man HUD (Heads Up Display if you're not a nerd like me) that I did for fun using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.  Mostly Illustrator though.  Took about 2 to 3 hours.  Below is a sample of my process.

Mochi Monster!

Here is a piece that I just worked on for my Mother-in-law.  It's going to be her birthday in a couple of weeks, and since she liked my Gizmo canvas that I did for my house so much I thought that it would be a good idea to give her one as a surprise gift.  It also just so happens that her dog, Mochi's birthday is the exact same day as hers so it's actually a gift to the both of them.

This piece took about 3-4 hours to paint using Photoshop and Wacom Intuos 3 tablet.

Here's my process.  About 3-4 hours.

Free Comic Book Day 2012 Sketches

Here are some of the free sketches that I did over at Maximum Comics for Free Comic Book Day.  I had so much fun as usual.  I wish that I could have stayed a bit longer though.  Maybe next time I'll get to do a full day.  Surprisingly I had a lot of requests for  Catwoman.  I would have bet money that everyone would have wanted some Avengers themed sketches.  Anyways, enjoy!

My Best Friend

Hey everyone it's been way too long since I've done a challenge, but I've been really busy lately.  I should really be on like day 10 or something maybe I'll catch up some day.  Luckily our group doesn't count the weekends so it gives me some time to catch up.

So the day 5 drawing is Best Friend and my best friend is my beautiful wife and mother of my child, Christabel.  It took about 3 hours or so.  Probably would have been less but Connor was being really fussy and wouldn't let me work.  Oh well enjoy.  Also for some reason Blogger is being really dumb and won't let me upload my usual animated GIF of my process so I'll just upload it later. 

Painted in Photoshop about 3 hours

The Store

Day 4 of the Challenge and the topic is Favorite Place.  For me it's got to be "The Store", and if you don't know now you know!  This is a place of many great memories that I will never forget. 

Done in Adobe Illustrator about an hour
