Abe Sapien, Lobster Johnson and Roger

I love Hellboy, Mike Mignola is one of my favorite artists. This pic started as a little sketch on a post it sized piece of paper. Just for fun and practice. 

Cheers

And the post it sketch I started with.

Lobster Johnson is a Nazi fighting specter who brands his enemies with a claw mark burnt into their foreheads. My thinking was that his ghostly body was containing his burning essence. I had so much fun painting Abe I thought I would have a crack at another Hellboy character. I would love to see this charater in Hellboy 3 I really hope they make that movie one day soon

Roger the homunculus. Here's another character from the Hellboy and BPRD universe. Had a lot of fun on this guy and tried to stay true to the spirit of Mike Mignola's great design. 

Marvel pitch

I did this a few months ago at work. It's the cover for a pitch package for a marvel themed game. I really enjoyed getting the chance do work on marvel characters during work hours. I've always loved comics and have wanted to work in comics since I was a kid, this is the closest I got so far so I was stoaked.

Jugde Dredd

I used to love this comic. I remember getting one for my birthday from a friend when I was around 10. It was so cool and violent. I even liked the bad movie, untill I watched it again recently.

 I saw the trailer for the new movie the other day, I'm not sure about it yet. I do like Carl Urban though. So I'll have to wait and see it might be alright.

Done over 3 or 4 nights after work.
