Book Cover Idea


Back when I started doing paintings based on Beowulf, the idea was to do a fully painted illustrated version. These paintings were big (20 x 30) and I think I bit off more than I could chew at the time. N. C. Wyeth's book paintings (talk about big!) were kind of what influenced me to give it shot. But he was commissioned big bucks to do what he did. I couldn't devote that kind of time to mine when I had a full time job and family to take care of.

Anyway, I was playing around with one of those paintings in Photoshop recently and here's a mockup of the cover that might have been. Who know, maybe this (or something like it) will still happen someday.

Okay, nerds. Argue amongst yourselves....

Hulk Beats Everyone, Nerds. Ink on bristol board, 30 x 22.
Here's a recent commission I did. I really do feel bad about what I did to some of these characters, but some probably had it coming. Don't worry, all of the citizens were evacuated and made it out safely. Also, the client didn't want any female characters in the scene. Hulk's kind of a gentleman that way. I also decided to censor some of the gorier parts with some pixelation (it's not really hiding anything 😏).

FRAMED WORK

A buyer who bought bunch of my ink drawings to decorate his kids' rooms sent me these pics to show me how he framed them. Pretty cool.
