Double Oh to the Seven

I’m really happy with this drawing and really not all at the same time.

As a stand alone interpretation of Bond I’m pretty happy with it. (Although it does look a little bit like Rod Sterling as James Bond if I’m honest.) But since I pulled the pose from a Connery as Bond promo shot I wish I could’ve captured him more. After a failed attempt or 3 I decided just to let it happen and forget the likeness.

So, of course, since I drew Bond I have to ask the obligatory question: Which was your favorite?

Old School Inspiration

I got to hang out with some incredible folks this weekend and discovered that I have a lot to learn. A couple local comic professionals along with their highly knowledgeable friends walked me through an amazing collection of old books, newspaper illustrations, original artwork for about 9 hours on Saturday. About 15 minutes after we started I realized the best thing for me to do was shut up and just start letting it soak in.

What you see above is hopefully the first of many steps toward some more realistic approaches to my illustrations. I’m not giving up the cartoony stuff but man was I inspired to kick it up a notch. (Thanks guys.)

Oh, and you can go ahead and consider this an apology for Friday’s disturbing creation as well. Sorry ’bout that (but it probably won’t be the last time).

Saturday Can’t Come Too Soon

Just remember: You come here voluntarily.

Apparently I am quite ready for the weekend. I started with the eyes thinking, “I want to draw something cute today.” I dunno, maybe this falls into the it’s-so-ugly-it’s-cute category?

Maybe?

Muse of the Morning

What you see here today is my first Twitter fueled sketch. This morning I put out a tweet asking for a little spark that got responded to by a local DC musician simply asking: “you can haz muse?”

And yes, yes I can.
