Wednesday, May 19, 2010 at 4:35PM Hi guys,
I decided to head over to Photoshop to color in the Killjoy piece, just because I want to experiment for a sec. You know how us artists are, so all over the place. I have the attention span of a 4 year old...oh, look, is that the ice cream truck outside? Here is a quick value study of the art. I have much more to do before heading to color.
Friday, April 23, 2010 at 2:07PM Hey guys, I've been doing a lot of client work this week so inking Killjoy is going slowly. Here's a new shot of the piece. Gonna do some quick reference hunting on things like alligators and lizards to see how I'm going to tackle rendering the dragon...er, uh, what's left of the dragon. Killjoy don't play that!
Wednesday, April 21, 2010 at 12:11PM A while ago, like decades ago (yeah I'm getting older...yay...), I created a character named Killjoy Dragonslayer. She's a tough as nails, ale-loving, butt-kicking woman who is out to avenge her sister. She has appeared in the Hamster Vice comics and is Wolph's lady friend. Killjoy's 16-page bonus story in included in the Hamster Vice graphic novel (use this link to check it out).
This piece of art is Killjoy drinking from the head of a dragon that met the wrong end of her blades. Like I said, this gal ain't no joke. I'm inking the art in Adobe Illustrator. I'll post more as I make progress.
