More raw scans of inked work. The western pic was for DC Comics ‘All Star Western’, I can’t remember what the wolf was done for.

Unknown Soldier, DC Comics. This strip appeared in G.I. Combat a couple of years ago. Shown here are a couple of raw scans of inks (done over blueline print outs of the pencils), they are inked with a variety of Sharpies, Sharpie ultra fine lines & Pentel correction pen. The page of pencils was done over a blueline print out of the original thumbnails.

A drawing of a Roman Praetorian guard for a book about ‘special forces’ (Sharpies over blueline printout of the original pencils). Pencil prelim for a mobile phone promotional campaign (pencil over blueline printout of original thumbnail). Artwork for a couple of panels prior to clean up & adding of panel borders (both done digitally), this was for DC Comics All Star Western (Sharpies over blueline printout of the original pencils).

Raw scan of the artwork a panel from a ‘non fiction’ comic strip about the US army in the Iraq war. Inked with Sharpies.

Raw scans of a group of panels done for DC Comics All Star Western. In the published version the female figure on the left has been slightly covered up, which I did digitally in ‘post production’.

Pencils & raw scans. The images of planes were done for a book I did a few years ago about (unsurprisingly) fighter planes. The page of pencils were done for DC Comics’ Unknown Soldier, & the remaining image is a raw scan of the inked art for a panel from a short run I did on DC Comics’ Jonah Hex.

Raw scans & character design, for various projects. The image of the plane getting hit by lightning was for a short comic strip telling the story of Juiliene Koepcke & how she survived a two mile fall from a plane over the Amazon rain forest. If you don’t know her story, you should Google it, it’s pretty damn incredible.

Thumbs, roughs, prelims, rejected pencils & raw scans of finished art for various projects. Pencil, Sharpies, fine liners, brush pens & white out correction pens.
