Hellboy

Hellboy!

Further cementing my status as the Ringo of this blog, I haven't posted in a week. Doh! Now that I finished a freelance project tho I should be back on schedule

Hellboy/Ghost Rider

Woo hoo! I can finally post my own work. Though I have to admit, I'm going to miss having my name in lights in the title of every post.

So, I've always wondered about combining Hellboy and Ghost Rider. I thought this theme would give me chance to experiment with this idea. It turned out looking more like Ghost Rider than Hellboy. I'm sure colors would help (making the head red).

Back at "The Kubert School" I recall having a class where I was taught how to do tonal coloring, but that all seems so long ago. I can't seem to remember much from those days.

Quick sketch of Hellboy to start the day off right!

Hellboy go Boom!

Mike Mignola is one of my favorite artists, the influence his work had had on mine is both significant and apparent. I love his character Hellboy, a character who was just created to be drawn in sharpies and papermates (as I've done here). I also love the way the character is written, especially his tendency to yell "boom" as he smacks things with his big right hand of doom. Fun stuff.

Got home, took one look at this, and realized that I absolutely must rotate the image like so:

Hellboy - Good Right Hand

'Nuff said really.

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"
