I hope that doesn’t happen with what I’m working on at the moment.

Below is a design for one of the characters in the comic strip, just a quick draft, trying to figure out how I want to illustrate it, pen and ink, pencil, full colour, black and white etc. I like the result of the photoshoped image below, but I don’t know if I could handle full on colour.

I’m going to blog the illustrations I’ve done slowly, maybe one set a week and eventually a full web comic.

The comic is set in the future, there’s robots, advanced technology and a hint of the paranormal, I’ll reveal more as I post more pics.

Let me know what y’all think.

Alien photoshop Painting

Alien photoshop Painting


I just watched some stunning Photoshop painting tutorials from CarlosCabrera awhile ago and I thought I’d have a go at it with the drawing tablet I’ve had for years and never used.

I chose something obvious to create and decided to get out of my comfort zone and actually use some colour and had a really great time. I’ll definitely be practicing more with painting in photoshop, maybe it’ll finally help me understand how to work with colour.

The alien I painted is far from finished, but I think it’s pretty nifty for a first go.

The first idea is for pretty much a full on comic strip, though when I say comic strip I mean along the lines of Jay Anacleto’s pencil work, which will take a very long time to do.

The other idea is to have a series of creature related drawings, you know, bigfoot, chupacabra, shadow people etc, a creature feature. This would likely take a third of the time as the comic strip and probably a lot more useful.

There were a few other ideas, but you know how it goes, ideas come and go before I have to time to get to em.

So what do you guys think, comic strip or creature feature?
