two weeks late- still counts, right???

So I have been essentially building a new school- and since I am the Dean of Students, it has been crazy.

so here is the Carmen- I did it in sharpy, because I wanted to try something new. If I did this
fine line, or even sketchy, it would be a whole different piece.

Next challenge?

Midweek update!

Howdy hey.
So I got this digital drawing tablet/monitor . I am now trying color some of my own stuff to save time, hone my skill, etc.
thoughts?

Ok- so both are colored in VERY different styles- looking for feedback. Is the painting style of the Thanos worth it? is the marker style on ol' Deadpool not working? give me some input so that I can keep working on this- the success of my next prints require it! THANKS!!!

new challenge-week 1 COMPLETE!

So I accepted the Spider Man 2099 challenge, and here he is.

 This is why i need to do these- as soon as I posted it, I see three things that I hate, so it tells me that I need to take  step back when drawing. I got what I needed from the exercise. Come back later in the week for some new, non-challenge art! For next week, I have already accepted Carmen Santiago, I am confident that I will know where she is.

Cheers!

Getting some penciling in

TIme for work? not always. But I love it when I do get to draw for me- fills the portfolio, makes me feel like an artist, not just a contract monkey, and of course, this provides much personal satisfaction!

here are some things from this past few days:

Still have not heard from anyone with art suggestions. Shame, but I should blame myself. I dropped it a few years ago, so I take the blame.
Please need an idea- no obligation for any purchase, it just keeps me fresh!

some upcoming prints (not Prince, because that would be awkward)

HOWDY! Here are some previews from the soon to be available print series by me and my favorite colorist, Lizz.

 There are 3 more in the set, one of the lovely baddies from GIJoe, Thundercats, and Master of the Universe ( He-Man) so look for them here soon, or hit me up if interested- as always, prints are $10 each or the whole set of 5 for $40.

So, what should I draw this week for the blog challenge?

Cheers!

Can't stop the rock...

Busy week. I got a new toy- the Yiynova19U, so I am doing digital paintings... I will show my first experiment next week, perhaps.

Here is a DC Batman 0 cover that I did for the Poison Ivy Guy in Tennessee.

So, starting next week, I will ask for submissions for ideas for art section on the blog, if I pick your idea that, you can have the art for free if you pay for shipping. Easy enough.
Each week, I will draw at least one idea as suggested ( ideas form previous weeks will stay on the list) and the person who suggests it get s the first right of refusal. If they choose not to want it, I will offer it up to the rest of the blog readers, still for free- whoever eants it will only have to pay for shipping.
these will be sketches- not convention  or submission quality full blown pieces, but often pencil sketches only--- unless I feel like doing more.

Start submitting ideas so that I can pick one for next week!
Cheers!

A new week, and new art

I am neck deep in two different card sets, both are fairly new characters to me, so it is a challenge.
I decided to take another week to figure out the art challenge concept, speaking of that word, as I can not decide how exactly to make it work.

For now, you can hopefully enjoy this:

I promise to figure out the details, and I am even open to suggestions. so email me at jsobolgetsvicious@gmail.com if you have any suggestions.
Cheers!
