This Sketch Saturday, Superman and WonderWoman

This one is also to help fund dinosaur research. All monies will go to getting Dave Hone to Canada and feeding him while he... a .... researches! 

Also, I'm taking a few weeks off from Sketch Saturday to recharge. With a monthly comic, 3 covers and character designs, I'm beat!

Best!

Messing around

I had an idea last night so I spent a few hours getting the gist of it down on paper. I blame nothing good on TV for this.

Anywho, enjoy!

I'm sort of famous... kinda... not really.

 

Hey look! I'll be appearing with some paleoart at the Insights Science Museum in El Paso, TX! If you happen to be in the area stop on by and say hi!

This Sunday, the True KING.

Been watching Godzilla movies and decided to draw up my version of the King.

Nothing really new to talk about, just some stuff I saw on the Dead Sea Scrolls and that they don't always match up with 'real' scripture. Did some reading on Elijah. Funny how he, John the Baptist and Jesus did a lot of the same things. One might assume they were the same myth recycled;)

Also interesting is there turns out there are a TON of early writings around the time of Jesus, yet he's NEVER mentioned in any of them, births, deaths all sorts of stuff. And that 'Q" fellow the Christians love to tote about, there is no actual evidence every produced to back up the Christians claims of a 'Q'. Surprising right?!?!;P

Well, till next week!

Yutyrannus huali!!!!

This was just the best week EVER!!!! A feathered theropod dinosaur has been found!!!! Most likely it's an early tyrannosaur but it's also possible, just possible mind you, that it's actually a Carcharadontosaur!

They found 3, one about 30 feet and 2 others about 24-25 feet. Equal in size to Albertosaurus and Allosaurus! Go here for a far more detailed analysis.

A few things from the twitter.

In honor of getting a 1,000 twitter followers I posted this design. For an idea that looks doubtful but maybe one day will find a home:)

Sneak peak from TT 10 page 1...

And a sneak peak of Omen and Warblade from the TT Annual.

Enjoy!

Velociraptor scavenging a pterosaur!

Well look at that! A new dinosaurs image by Jess and I! Done for Dave Hone over at Archosaur Musings. You can read all about it over there! Lots of dinosaurs lately!

Unused G. I. Combat cover

My tenure of being the cover artist on G. I. is over. Creative differences and all that. I figured it would happen since the general public knows little about dinosaurs. Oh, well. Not to worry, there are lots more dinosaurs in TT 10 and 11;) And this time, no bloody tanks!

Pink Dinosaur Event

October is breast cancer awareness month and in honor of that the good folks over on Art Evolved having a draw a pink dinosaur for charity event thingy. You draw a pink dinosaur and send it on over and they pony up $2 for cancer research. I figured that since comic book people like breasts so much maybe you guys would want to chip in an help;) So pick up a pencil and a crayon and start drawing. I did a fully complete one so git of your asses';)

Bestest,

Stuff I'm workin on.

'Tarzan Boy' vs Acrocanthosaurus!

'Tarzan Boy' one, Acro zero! This concept has a name now, I'm just sure if I should mention it until the logo gets finished (It's almost done, but I suck at putting these type of things together.) Anyways just something fun I drew up last night. The human and dino are pretty much to scale. Working on so many projects for others, I needed a mental break so I decided to do some stuff for myself for fun.



I've been reading the Order of the Stick web comic lately, very funny of you ever payed D&D!

Sketches and ideas

Sometimes and idea hits me, for a story or a character and it will take me few tries to get it down on paper. Sometimes I get things spot on with the first attempt, others... well it's one of the reasons I draw on cheap typing paper as well as 'art boards'. I had originally done a few sketches of the 'Tarzan Boy', image found here, years ago. When I had an idea I decided to revamp the entire story from the ground up, so that means now is new ideas, and new characters. Once the main guy was drawn and the basic idea was set, I need to work out the details. For some reason it helps me to do some sketches, not finished art by any means, just ideas jotted down in visual form. I guess it helps me focus.


I decided to actually draw out the central woman of the sketch. I may do something similar with the others... at least some of the main characters. But if you have a head you want and they just wear regular clothing you don't REALLY need to do a full body shot, but I wanted to see if the visual would work right. I don't think primitive humans would really care for our morals so I decided to make her topless, but put her in body paint to obscure the 'naughty parts'. I think it will do, but if I get some complaints I may have to pull an Avatar and have some sort of glued neck gizmo. Of course that will only apply if I ever get a chance to draw the damn idea. It most likely will sit in the pile of my other ideas.

On a side note, it is not OK to TRACE another persons images and then change the outfit and call it yours. It is NOT professional and NOT standard practice. But if you do something like that do NOT post it on your site and use it to make money. That's stealing and is illegal. Jess might go into this more since this is more her area of interest.

A few colored Mesozoic images

The first actually appeared on the BBC's web page and, surprisingly enough Fox News. That made my day!


I drew this quickly for Art Evolved. They have a sort of drawing contest, with out the contest part. An animal or type of animal (dare I say Kind:P) is voted upon and then you draw it. They give you 3 months or so so plenty of time. This time I waited to the last minute and whipped the pencils out in about an hour. I decided to try coloring it the morning it was due and it took me about an hour and a half. The cool thing about under water stuff, soooo easy to color;)

Finished 'Tarzan Boy"

I finally got this finished. Just an idea I had a few years ago, I finally got it down on paper.

New Jurassic Park comic

It looks like IDW has picked up the rights for a new Jurassic Park comic. I didn't like the first cover, I'm not 100% sure what theropod it is. Article is here.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I was pissed last night, but after seeing the cover artist choices... well they are all good artist, just not my first picks for dinosaurs but that might just be me. I guess I'll have to see what happens.

Dinoshark Tonight!

Syfy channel has a new movie with super cheese in it, Dinoshark. It premieres tonight, so pop up some corn, grab a beer (or something stronger as these movies tend to truly suck!) and enjoy. It's a Roger Corman film so you know it will be bad!

More anthro's next week. I actually just did a new one:)
