More stuff from the marvel front!

Please press play before reading. It will blow your mind!



I sit here reinspired after a night of Jonny Quest on Boomerang. What is it about those cool old shows that just stokes the flames? Is it the fact that they made something so cool on such a bare bones budget with minimal manpower? I think it's that rowdy theme music. That music starts and you just want to slug some frogmen and make a daring escape into a diving bell. My first pics here are some work on the big green machine. The hulk easily fits into that same action category as Jonny Quest, he had some late 60's action as produced by Hanna Barberra, too. In any case, here's some of the work.



Was trying to get down some movement on that sketch, on this one it's just work on the lighting.






This last pic is of a character that really didn't hit it big until the 90's, personally I don't like him much, but some fella asked me to bust out a pic of him. Guess he has a thing for Cajun swamp rats. This is my take on Gambit.





Hope y'all enjoy it. Any comments welcome. Later, pusscakes.- D.S.

Been workin' on it.

If anyone thinks that I have been doing nothing artistically as of late, you could not be farther from wrong. Truth is, I have been doing a lot of art, though it is far less than I would like to be doing. Been drawing a lot, which is any artist's first love. It's where we began, and ultimately where we will end. It keeps any of our other skills up to snuff and dually serves as a fantastic pastime. Here is a sketch of some characters that I'm working on for my own personal comic book.


The title character is named Bob Oso. He's a bear that I modeled after a version of myself a few (much skinnier) years ago. He moonlights as a Luchador named "El Autobus" and has a very endearing streak of callousness. In other work, I've challenged myself to put a personal touch to some pop culture figures, including this oft forgotten menace.


His name is trapjaw, and he likes white wine spritzers, long walks on the beach , and the occasional backrub. As having grown up watching masters of the universe, it's only natural that I would have an affinity for this buffoon. Not quite worked out yet, but I do like his look thus far. In any case, more posts to come soon.

One good Thing deserves another.

So, in my recent rediscovery of my own talents, I came upon an older sketchbook with some impressive musings that I had laid down on paper. Amongst them were the following renderings of a true original from the Marvel universe.


In a further exercise of the same character, I deided to rework the details of Mr.Grimm's lovely facial features.



In closing, I truly hope that those few who can view my work can look on it positively and appreciate my artistic point of view. If not, you have permission to peel my banana and fucking like it.- D.S.

Practice makes...uh...


Alright, true to my earlier post having everything to do with me being a lazy ass I am posting a pic of some of my recent work. This is my very quick pencil rendering of the classic beast known as the Swamp Thing. I thought to myself, it's been a while since that mo-fo has been visible on any news stands. So I went to the DC comics sight, and I guess the reason for Swampy's low visibility these days is because those bitch nuggets cancelled the series. Oh well, Swamps did find work recently. According to Gilbert Gottfried, Swamp Thing most recently hosted the Comedy Central roast of Joan Rivers, whining about it's hollywood D- List status and openly embracing smurfy queers like Mario Cantone. Enjoy my gifts, attention whores.- D.S.
