I spent some time inking over whatever pencils I could find on the Internet some years back ( I should post that stuff someday ). I think I can do a creditable job on just about anyones pencils , the only one I had trouble with was Gene Colan. The guy could draw like nobody else, I was frankly out of my league. It's a humbling and inspiring thing to look at Colan's work. May he rest in peace.

Gene Colan
Today we pay tribute the Gene Colan who passed away last week.
I remember finding his "Tomb of Dracula" at a rummage sale and
only buying the issues because the kid selling them insisted as I
had no interest.
Well, they were great...and creepy...and they had fantastic art.
Later I loved the strange but uneven "Night Force" which
unfortunately was not loved by enough people to stay around
for long.
Anyway, Thanks for the memories!
P.S.
I tried to draw like Gene here...not easy...

Hellboy
Well,
Everyone loves Hellboy, but this theme did not excite me.
That's only because Hellboy is so owned by Mike Mignola.
I can't do Hellboy better than him and...there is no
OTHER way TO do it. so here is my best effort.
I call it:
"Hellboy vs. a Gene Colan monster"
