bronze_rules Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 So I wake up this morning to some awesome personal sketches by alecholland. I see these great contributions from time to time, and always felt there should be a permanent ongoing thread for this type of work. So hopefully budding artists, pros, and amateurs alike can put up some of their goodness here. Here's something I slapped together a while back (had to join together parts, since scanner was too small). Link to post Share on other sites
Karma23 Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Very cool work! Here's a sketch that I've since painted in Photoshop Link to post Share on other sites
Dollarbill Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Here's one I did a while back.A little rough ,but it only took me 30 mins. Link to post Share on other sites
alecholland Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Posted this in the thread I started as well, but since you asked, here's a Hellboy sketch I just did. I don't want to make anyone mad, so I won't post the same images in both threads from here on out. Link to post Share on other sites
october Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Spent about 10 minutes on this one. Haven't drawn in years...and it shows! Link to post Share on other sites
rtarturo Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I too hadn't drawn for years and have come back to it, and comic books in the past year or so. Here are a pair of Dave Stevens covers that I really like and took a stab copying. [/img] [/img] Link to post Share on other sites
rtarturo Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I've also been trying my hand at inking. Here's a Dr Strange page, I think from 169, I used a Marvel Essentials as my reference, this one I did a pencil sketch first then inked it: [/img] and a Jim Starlin savage sword of Conan, this one I copied free hand with a brush and bother with the panels: [/img] Link to post Share on other sites
alecholland Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Some really great work from everyone here! I'm looking forward to seeing more. (thumbs u Link to post Share on other sites

tofer118 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 (edited) Great idea for a thread. I did a Spider-Man painting once that i gave to my son. I haven't seen it in years. These are not comic related so i hope they are all right. So, I pulled these out of a closet. I haven't look at them in a least a decade. The frames are filthy ( have to replace them and hang them up soon ) and there are some stains on the one in the sky. These are the only ones i have left. I used to paint when I was in my late teens and early twentys. But i gave most of them away. My mother was very talented and i used to paint with her and late at night by myself. I kept these paintings because i didn't like the mountain scene and couldn't give it to anyone, because i wasn't happy with how it turned out. The other one i kept because it had a fond memory attached. I'm color blind and should have labeled the colors on the pallet but i was up late painting. In fact all night. My father came in and look at it for a while them said. " Nice,... green deer. I wouldn't have gone that way, but you're the artist. So i had to repaint them. I painted my first wifes wedding portrait as a first anniversary present and haven't picked up a paint brush since. that was in 1981. Maybe when i retire someday.

mister_not_so_nice Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Well, if photoshop counts, I colored all of THESE PICTURES from the original B/W that I have. And these pics were done from the covers of various comics. Can you name the issues? Link to post Share on other sites
