Legend of six character design

Keeping up with the story idea I had from high school. Here is the current character design for the main character.

Here is the new tattoo design.

Enjoy.

Hammer and Saw

So going along with my post the other about just drawing out short stories, I decided to draw some characters. These two guys are dragon hunters. The style I drew them n allows for tons of options when it comes to story telling. These characters could be used in comic strips, video game concepts (kid's games), or they could be use in a shonen manga style (comics directed at a younger male audience). If I'm feeling adventurous they would be contrasted with a very serious story line, filled with blood, guts, and violence (toward dragons).

sorry for the quality, I really need to start using my camera, not my phone

the colony: bullet points

I just finished watching "The Colony". Here's a quick review in bullet points.

- I liked it
- The whole post-apocalyptic theme always draws me in
- It's a fun watch, hough the trailer basically spells out the whole story.
- The only complaint I would have is that the style of the cannibals is too similar to the vampires of "40 Days of Night"
- 3/6 bullets, it's not going to be winning any awards, that's for sure

just an idea

So that little comic study I did the other day has me thinking that if I really want to start making comics, maybe I should start making quick "one-shot" stories. If I start drawing out some of my ideas in a few short pages maybe I can find an idea that I really want to stick with.

Guess I should start on that asap... after I finish that children's book, oh and after I work my butt off through the holiday season.

Quick comic

So I had this thought about how cliche it is to have a scene of two old men playing chess in a park. Here's the first page of a short comic in response to this thought.

The holidays

So first and foremost, I'm not sure how often I will be updating over the next month or so. The christmas season means lots of overtime at work, and as everyone knows you have to work hard for your money.

On the subject of the holidays. Please, for the love of all that is good in this world, spend thanksgiving with your families. This idea of stores opening for "black friday" on thanksgiving is bullshit. My wife has to work that night, but she works at a hospital, jobs such as that are critical to maintaining civilization. Increasing your sales for the quarter is not. So if you can, stay home. If you can't good luck.

The return of K.O.I.

I had this idea in high school called king of imagination. A young boy who can bring I life anything he imagines. This piece illustrates a rebel, a samurai, a lion, ghosts, and a monster. These are items that frequent my imagination.
