Troll sketch card for The Hobbit : An Unexpected Journey

This is my final illustration done for The Hobbit : An Unexpected Journey trading card set. 

And although this isn't a very popular or sought after character by collectors, this is seriously one of my favorite cards from the set.... Wish I had kept it.

Here is a walking dead sketch cover commission that I think I completely forgot to post.

Phat con!

Phat con was so much fun... It was super busy, which was great. I didn't eat anything all day except for a blue moon.... But still had a great time. 

I unfortunately didn't take many pics because dave and busters was so dark & my iPad doesn't have a flash... So, oh well...

But I just wanted to let you know it was fun, and it was a free event, so you should go every year, because if it keeps growing, it won't be free for long.

Bombshells: Women Of War Sketch Card

Good morning, here is another Bombshells sketch card for the Women of War set by Bad Axe Studios. I was trying to go for that traditional pin-up look, but wasn't too fond of how it cam out. should have put more detail in the pupils of the eyes, the collar bone is non-existent, and although the hands are correct, they look funny because the bottom few fingers are cut off. I also think I used a little too much colored pencil on the face, because it looks a little too gritty for me.

Anyway, those are my gripes....what DO I like about it? Hmmmm.....maybe the clouds?

Done with copics, gel pen & a couple prismacolor pencils. Gotta get back to drawing more zombies....take it easy!

Battle Maiden Sketch card for Bad Axe studio's Women of War set

Ok...another Bombshells card for the Women of War set by Bad Axe studios. Not a whole lot to say here...just another sexy chick with a big sword...LOL. done with copic markers.

Fantasy art sketch card of a demon for unstoppable cards

Ok..back to the fantasy cards. Here is actually the first card I did in the set. I was mostly trying to figure out how to work with the stock. Came out well considering....but the learning curve was about 7-10 cards. Anyway, here's another demon done with copics & a brush pen. Just goes to show...you give me the option...I'm going to draw a monster 80% of the time.

Hang in there...almost friday!

BombShells Sketch card for Bad Axe Studios- " Born to Thrill"

Well, I thought we'd take a break from the Fantasy art cards today & show a sneak peek of some of the Bombshells cards I did for Bad Axe studios. The set is called "Bombshells: Women of War" and has yet to be released. Luckily one of the artist fell threw & I was picked up as a last minute rush replacement. So basically this set will feature women...well, women of war. Was a fun project to work on, did 25 sketch cards & a base card.

A Demon Fantasy Sketch card for Unstoppable Cards

Yet another one of my Fantasy art sketch cards, for unstoppable cards over in the U.K. Great bunch to work with, responded to me right away & even worked with me, because the shipping took three weeks, out of the month I was given to complete the 40 cards I did for them. Here's One of my Demon cards done in a monochrome using warm & cool grey copics, as well as a brush pen.

Crystal Ball - Worlds of Fantasy - Z-sketch

Here is Sketch card # 18 that's going to be featured in the " Worlds Of Fantasy" trading card set that will be sold at New York Comicon. I'm doing a total of twenty sketch cards & one base card. I have to wait for approval before I post them. The interesting thing about these cards is that they unfold to display a larger sketch. They are called z-sketch cards. so on the upper right hand corner is the front of the card & the lower left hand corner is the back with the signature. The rest of it folds up like a map. I've included two pics, one is just the card front & the other is the entire sketch, unfolded.

I used copic multiliners & markers for the majority of these cards.
