Posting, Posting, Posting...

Took a little break after that last window display and did a little shopping too. I picked up a new laptop to go with my new Wacom tablet so that I can properly get back into the swing of all things animated/drawing.


Especially now after being depleted of money from these purchases, it looks like I'll need to get myself a job by using these items to boost up my portfolio a little more. Next up, Wonder Woman for a friend of mine that requested it. I'm going to try out watercolors again to see if I can get a good representation done. 


Anyway, that's all for now. Just checking in. Oh, I did see Pirates of the Carribean 4, which was boring. But I did also see 13 Assassins, which was good. I'd write a few reviews, but I'm not too sure anyone here is interested. Besides, if Green Lantern is as bad as it looks, I may have to save all my writing prose up just for that alone. Anyway, I'll leave you with this little summer ditty...

Green Lantern Window Display Completed

So last week I posted a few pics of Star Sapphire (a Green Lantern villain) that I did for the Comic Outpost window display. Here's a reminder:

Today, I finally finished the Hal Jordan version of Green Lantern for the other side of the window display. Here he is:

Want to see the whole thing together and with lights? Sure you do:

A little bit of glare on the windows...

Later on into the evening when the lights could be seen a little bit better.

So there you have it. Green Lantern and Thor vs. Star Sapphire and The Destroyer. Yup, these are movie related theme windows that I'm doing for the Comic Outpost. 

As per usual, these are all done on 3/4" foamboard, hand cut, Gessoed, painted with Acrylic paint and finished with Sharpie markers. Each one is unique, and did I happen to mention that they're for sale too? Anyway, enough whoring myself and my artwork out. 

Enjoy.

Green With Envy trailer

Okay...you'll probably say to yourself, 'WTF is this crap?!?' when you start to watch this trailer, but stick with it to see the awesomeness contained within. Trust me. Watch the whole thing.




See. I told you so.

New Window Display (Well, Half of it at Least)

It's been a little while since I posted something, and even longer since I've posted some artwork. So here we are. I've just completed half of the window display for the Comic Outpost for the upcoming Green Lantern movie. So without further ado, here's Star Sapphire, one of the Green Lantern's villains.

Now, this isn't the final piece. I've added lights behind her (and in the ring) for a purple glow. Once I get the Green Lantern piece done and up in the window, I'll take pics of the final look of the pieces as they are lit up. For now, you'll have to settle for this.

Oh, and as usual, 3/4" foamboard with Acrylic paint and marker. 

Enjoy.

Horrible Bosses trailer

We've all had them at one point in our working lives; a horrible boss. Well, this movie does take it to the extreme, but looks very, very funny in the process. It stars Jason Bateman, Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, Charlie Day, Jason Sudekis, Collin Farrell, and Jamie Foxx. Trust me, if you don't laugh at the last scene in the trailer, you probably don't know what funny actually is.

It Must Be Wednesday, So Here's Another Green Lantern Trailer

*Sigh* You all know I love my superhero movies, except when they're done badly (Incredible Hulk, Ghost Rider, Superman Returns, Daredevil, Elektra). Well, I'm thinking the Green Lantern movie is going to wind up in the 'hate it' category the more I keep seeing of it. In this latest version (supposedly after some of the CGI cleanup), we get to see a Guardian, the yellow fear symbol (which didn't come about until a few years ago), and some more smoky tendrils that look like the Galactus crapfest from Fantastic Four 2. Anyway, here it is, see for yourself.

Here's a look at Yoda...um, I mean one of the Guardians.

The more I see, the lazier the effort I see put into this movie. It's almost as if Warner Bros. wants it to fail so they can have another tax write off (especially after the bomb that Sucker Punch was for them).
