Da-Da-Dynamic Duos!

Oh my dear bloggers,

I am terribly sorry that I haven't posted in months. Literally. Months.

And there is so much to catch up on! The biggest thing by far is that I am now engaged to the woman of my dreams! She's pretty amazing, and I pulled some fun pieces of art for her for her proposal.

I decided to make her a small book that was centered all around "Dynamic Duos" and I illustrated 4 duos that are famous in the Disney world, and 4 duos in the comic book world. And they were super fun to draw! Especially the Disney stuff!

So I will start off with the disney ones that were in the book, not necessarily in order, but the ones I like the most to the least!

I absolutely love this picture. 

It's just adorable in all the right ways. 

*ahem* Moving on.

This was a very close second.

 Mostly because I have always wanted to

 do a Woody and Buzz drawing, 

and this was the perfect excuse for one.

Now this one was just straight up fun to draw. 

So much fun. 

And this one is fun, 

drawing Marlin was great, 

he has such fun contours in his face. 

And now onto the comic book drawings!

Good 'ol Captain America and Bucky.

 For obvious reasons, this was my favorite. 

Iron Man and War Machine was 

also super fun to draw.

 Really loved this one. 

The idea of this one was more the thing

 that made me love this picture.

 Not so much the execution, but the idea.

And last but not least, Batman and Robin. 

Most people that know me know that I'm not a huge fan 

of Batsy here, but these two definitely

 made sense for the story I wrote. 

So here they are.

And those are the illustrations that I made for my wonderful bride-to-be. She loved them and has a small little book that she can show her friends how dorky and cheesy her future husband is. And I'm okay with that. 

Now I have a good couple of things that I have to post up. but I don't want to overload this post with art, so I shall return with more comic pages and more fun artsy fartsy pieces! Talk to you later blogdience!

Visual Storytelling I...Freedom!

Why hello there blog enthusiasts!

I have made it through finals of yet another quarter! Oh man, let me tell you, this was a doozie...I am more physically drained than I normally am, so if I don't make much sense, its pretty much because I am sleep deprived and on the brink of collapsing into my desk. 

ANYWHO...I had a very intense class known as Visual Storytelling I, sort of an intense class in the sequential department where you really get to draw a lot of pages...like...A LOT of pages. 

So out of the pages, there are a few I liked and thought were fun enough to share with you all! Here it goes!

This is a page out of the 1989 trade "Batman: Gotham by Gaslight".

  Mike Mignola did the art, and this particular page was sort of awful,

 so we had to redraw it, as well as practice inking.

 There are some errors, but over all it was a fun piece.

This is from our  "Memoir" comic. 

Mine was about  a dream I had where I was hunting trolls, 

and i was saved by a giant talking iguana known as "Tortula", 

this is page one of the two page story.

Here is the second page of the memoir comic.

 It was a fun two pages, 

 I tried to challenge myself on my use of black placement, 

overall I pushed myself and it was great!

Here is the first page of four, 

this was my final project, its me in my house.

Page two...the suspense is building!

At last the twist! 

And the last page. 

Ends on a cliffhanger, the best way to resolve anything. 

...clearly

Anyway I hope you likes the pages I got to churn out for Vis 1. I worked my butt off, so while I am here relaxing during spring break, I will be working to regain a butt, so I can work that off next quarter. 

Well I hope you all enjoyed what I did, it was definitely a labor of love...talk to you later my bloggey-people!
