Blood Pouch


June 31, 2007
Character(s):Blood Pouch

This was for an assignment in my humor class at the Joe Kubert School. We had to do a few gag cartoons that might appear in comic magazines. This is just my version of a possible Rob Liefeld character. If you don't know who the man is... look him up. :)
Futurama and the League


June 31, 2007
Character(s): Fry/Invisible Man, Leela/Mina Harker, Professor Farnsworth/Quartermain, Bender/Nemo, Zoidberg/Hyde

This was also for Doug Baron's humor class at the Joe Kubert School. We had to mix several comic characters with cartoon characters, and thought this would be an interesting mix that wouldn't have been done a million times before. Futurama and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
Abomination


June 13, 2007
An image I worked on a little less than a year ago that I neglected to upload. I drew and digitally painted this all in Photoshop.
Promo Poster


June 13, 2007
Character(s): Cyrus, Blood Pouch, Brimstone, (unnamed character), Death, George

This is the finished promotional poster that I did as a final project in my layout class with Bob Hardin at the Joe Kubert School. Coloring, leterring, etc were all done in Photoshop. The main head on the creature is supposed to be me.
Poem Illustration


June 13, 2007
We had to do three illustrations for a poem in Fernando Ruiz's basic drawing class. This is the color illustration for that assignment. Pencils colored in Photoshop.
ZAP


June 13, 2007
In Bob Hardin's layout class, we were assigned to do a movie poster similar to those from the 60s and 70s, cheesy title encouraged. Mine was Space Dracula vs. the Martian Man Slave starring Zap Rowsdower of Final Sacrifice fame. And yes, I realize you have no idea who that is. The coloring was done with Dr. Martin Dyes. They're basically super concentrated water colors.
Death


June 13, 2007
Character(s):Death

A colored image of Death that I did for an paste ups assignment. We had to create something with three levels of depth, make copies, paste the three layers to foam creating a three dimensional image we could use as a promotional piece. I don't think I'd actually do that on my own.
Death


June 13, 2007
Character(s):Death

I did this painting for my methods and materials class for Kim DeMulder using gouche. I don't paint very often, and not in a long time. It was also my first time using gouche.
Portrait of Old Man


April 6, 2006
This is just a sketch of a face I did in Photoshop.
Osiris: Birth

Osiris in life, as the God of fertility.
Osiris: Seth's Feast

Ink

My current inked or black and white works.

Ultimate X-Men pg3


July 31, 2007
Character(s): Wolverine

This was for my narrative class with Adam Kubert. We had to adapt a three page script from Ultimate X-Men. We had to ink one of the pages, which is why this is the only inked page.
Rawr


July 31, 2007
This was for Kim DeMulder's methods class. It was a horror assignment to be done on scratchboard. Other than that, everything was up to us. Just some more weird monsters.
Swamp Thing Cover - inks


July 13, 2007
Character(s): Swamp Thing

This was for an assignment in Kim DeMulder's methods class. We had to do a comic cover of our choosing.
Promo Poster

Here's the inks to the promotional poster I did without any color.
Ozzy


June 13, 2007
We had to do a few charicatures in my humor class, and Ozzy Osbourne was one of them. This was done on scratchboard.
Random Thing


June 13, 2007
I did this for my methods class. We had to draw some sort of military vehicle, using reference. This was like a... tank or something. I drew it in a forest because I liked the contrast, and sure... it's easier than all those damned straight lines.
Humor Page 1


June 13, 2007
In my humor class, we had to do a three page story using these four characters we created at the beginning of the year. The names were given to us and we had to design them... I did not come up with them. They had to come to the school looking for something. This makes absolutely no sense to you I'm sure, because I doubt it made much sense to everyone but a select few in my class that understood the inside jokes. Don't worry about it.
Humor Page 2


June 13, 2007
This is the second page of that three page story. SWORD GUY! It's funny, you just don't realize it.
Humor Page 3


June 13, 2007
Page three of the stupid story!
Death


June 13, 2007
Character(s): Death

Just the inks from the color version of the image above.
Brimstone


June 13, 2007
Character(s): Brimstone

This was the final piece for my methods class. There was no real assignment here, he just wanted us to use all (well, not ALL) the techniques we learned throughout the year.
Stream


April 6, 2006
Just some random image I drew within the last year.

A scene showing how Cyrus loses his eye.

My current pencilled works.

July 31, 2007
Character(s): Cyrus, Adolrico, Casto, unnamed sorceress

This was done for Mike Chen's lettering class at the Joe Kubert school. We had to draw and letter a three page script that we wrote ourselves. I used several of my characters in a simple story.
Rescue pg2


July 31, 2007
Character(s): Cyrus, Adolrico, Casto, unnamed sorceress

This was done for Mike Chen's lettering class at the Joe Kubert school. We had to draw and letter a three page script that we wrote ourselves. I used several of my characters in a simple story.
Rescue pg1


July 31, 2007
Character(s): Cyrus, Adolrico, Casto, unnamed sorceress

Ultimate X-Men pg2


July 31, 2007
Character(s): Wolverine (pg3)

This was for my narrative class with Adam Kubert. We had to adapt a three page script from Ultimate X-Men. This page took me forever because I really obsessed with the first panel to get the perspective right. I'm pretty happy with it, but I still would have liked to clean it up a bit.
Ultimate X-Men pg1


July 31, 2007
Character(s): Wolverine (pg3)

This was for my narrative class with Adam Kubert. We had to adapt a three page script from Ultimate X-Men. I'm not entirely happy with this one. I mostly just don't like how I rendered the rain.
Swamp Thing Cover - pencils


July 13, 2007
Character(s): Swamp Thing

The pencils to the Swamp Thing cover.
Loneliness


July 13, 2007
This was one of the earliest assignments in Adam Kubert's narrative class. In a previous assignment, we had to draw a young child and a kitten amongst debri in various scenes. Then we had to draw one large image of that character aged, and the cat mutated. It was also supposed to convey loneliness.
Crazy Cave


July 13, 2007
This was the very first assignment in Kim DeMulder's methods class. There was no real guidelines, it was just to let him see where we were at in terms of ability. I drew a naked, burned guy in a crazy tentacle, eyeball cave!
Death of Squirrel Girl 1


July 13, 2007
Character(s): Squirrel Girl

This was the final assignment in Adam Kubert's narrative class. We had to do a "death of a hero" cover before this, and then we had to do two pages leading up to that death. This is the first page featuring Squirrel Girl.
Death of Squirrel Girl 2


July 13, 2007
Character(s): Squirrel Girl, Dr. Doom, Thanos, MODOK, Bibeast


This is the second page of that assignment. In previous stories (Squirrel Girl is a Marvel character), she has beaten Dr. Doom, Thanos, MODOK, and Bibeast (yeah, bad name) despite being an incredibly goofy character. Here, they're about to get their revenge.
Rome Page 1


June 13, 2007
This was done for a basic drawing assignment. We had to do three pages in one of the specific time periods and locations he provided us. I chose 150 AD Rome. The pages also had to be heavily referenced. I'm pretty happy with the way these turned out. He ended up cutting our classes page load to two, because we had missed two weeks worth of class.
Rome Page 2


June 13, 2007
This is the second page I drew for this assignment.
