Popular Post KirbyJack Posted June 20 Popular Post Share Posted June 20 My wife does little resto projects, and she asked me what she should do with two black and white tables she had. I foolishly suggested that I could doodle on one, with my much more talented daughter Courtney doing the other. She liked the idea, so I had to do it. Here’s mine.

Here’s mine. watch out, she will miraculously find 15 more table tops in need of this treatment and it will become a full time job. Is this going to be laminated or treated in a way that you can put a cup down and not wreck it? It is very cool. KirbyJack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! Yeah; I’ll tweak a couple things that bother me, and then she’ll put on a clear coat. She has me doing stuff like this regularly, and loans me out to friends/family for all sorts of jobs. It’s too late already! ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 I’m hoping that she’ll recognize Courtney’s superior stylings and throw some work her way for a change! ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Crimebuster Posted July 10 Popular Post Share Posted July 10 Well, I've gone and made another comic. As some of you know from my posts around these parts, for quite a few years now, the focus of my collection has been romance comics. So I've been dying to do a romance comic myself. it's taken quite a while to get it all put together, but I finally have it done: Geek Love #1 is now out on Kickstarter. This is me basically doing a classic romance comic, but with a modern geeky twist, as the stories are about cosplayers, gamers, and wizards in love. I also drew all four covers for it. Usually, I have guest artists do some of the covers, but this one I wanted to do myself, so I could pay homage to some of my favorite romance covers and titles. 🙂 Here's the regular cover -- I used some of my favorite classic Golden Age heroes that are in the public domain for the cosplayers costumes. Also, the story is about a high school girl who finds new self-confidence -- and true love, of course -- when she cosplays as War Nurse. Not sure there's a huge audience clamoring for War Nurse romance comics, so I guess I was making this one mostly for myself! 😁 One of the stories is about the ineffable romance of the funicular. The primary inspiration for this variant is obviously Charlie Armentano's cover for DC Super-Giant #21, aka Love 1971, but I also took inspiration for the funicular itself from the cover of Mod Love #1 by Michael Quarez, and there's a hint of Ric Estrada's cover for Falling in Love #99 in the lettering and swirlies in the bottom right. This one obviously is a straight homage of Jay Scott Pike's classic cover for Young Romance #150, but with a gaming twist that I think D&D and RPG fans will enjoy. Finally, one of my favorite titles is Romantic Adventures from ACG, so I decided to do a cover where I revived that title and numbering, which seemed appropriate since this story is set in 1958. It's about a wizard who falls in love with a beat poet - pencils and inks by me, colors are by Adriel Dalla Vecchia: I love romance comics, so I had an absolute blast drawing these covers! I hope you guys dig them too 🤗 Unca Ben, KirbyJack, CJ Design and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Matt Brosch Posted July 19 Popular Post Share Posted July 19 I guess it's about time I dropped my bi-annual art pics lol. Here's a couple covers I finished recently, as well as some of my cardboard remarks (just little 5-10 min 'thank you' sketches on cardboard packaging when someone buys some art from me). Hope you like them! B2D327, Jayman, srezvan and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AnthonyTheAbyss Posted August 20 Popular Post Share Posted August 20 (edited) The other side of the paper had some horrible sketches that I was pretty heavy handed with the penciling. But the initial outline for this turned out so good that I kept going without using a new sheet of paper. The hair started as a pixie cut but got out of control so I ran out of space on top to finish the bun. ***This entire thing was a mess from start to finish Edited August 20 by AnthonyTheAbyss ADAMANTIUM, royaluglydudes, Jayman and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
