QUICK AND QUICKER

You know...

AL WILLIAMSON... farewell

AGENT X-9 & FLASH GORDON

FLASH GORDON on PLANET MONGO

I guess the sad news have arrived everywhere now, that the legendary Al Williamson has passed away last weekend on the 12th of June.

I'm sorry that I don't have anything more thorough to contribute but these rather quick sketches. Al Williamsons art is always powerful and loaded with fantastic moments. It's not only to me, that his way out imaginations will be sadly missed.

Farewell and rest in peace, Mr. Williamson.

MANBAT on DC DUESDAY

More crap from the crapshack central... in a quickshot manner.

DC: MANBAT = So awesome! MARVEL: MORBIUS the living Vampire! GIL KANE HAS GOT THE GROOVE! Morbius looks kinda tired or hung over on something. If you think about it, the Comic Vampire/Bat-thing is a pretty great and hilarious (illustrative) concept.

EEV! - KIRBY MONDAYS

EEV from the very fantastic DEVIL DINOSAUR Comics by KIRBY! I happily happened to catch a couple of these at a local convention - SO RAD! I hope to do some full figures from next week onwards... let's see. Lot's in the pipe this week. ENJOY and thanks for checking!

MORE HEX - VERTIGO VEDNESDAY

Learning, learning, learning... the more the better. I have long hesitated to just break into the tips and curves that make the look of the sable brush - relying on it more for it's precision (...and all the unforgiving mess ups...) it enables. But I figured I wanna learn this stuff, since all of that classic inking of the likes of CANIFF, MARSH and TOTH really turns me on AND I wanted to catch a glimpse of how that works just purely out of interest. Of course, that's a path not thread lightly, as these are the masters of Comics, each one of them a hallmark of their own, their greatness cemented by thousands of fantastic drawings.

So I'm just foolin' and having fun with my humble stumblings and onwards I go.
Another thing that I detect would be, that I'm applying some of the lines/techniques my friend SAM HITI brought to Killer hights... that makes me even more uncomfortable, but I hope this to be only a cough that will pass, a demon, quickly driven out by more healthy drawing and thinking.

So, ta! ...And THANKS for reading all that!

MARVEL MONDAYS - SKETCH SKIT

OK, OK! Some more ruff and touff doodles.

When I think Marvel, I think JACK KIRBY first. What he brought up and that all we enjoy now is built on the foundation of the Artists of that time, artist like him. Really strong and powerfull stuff, kicks you in the butt and makes you think. A real trailblazer who did an infinite number of drawings and PAGES, knocked them out, his mind there 24/7. Loving it till the last drop.

It's fun to do something quick and small, makes the hand wonder where it's sureness went, hahahaa.

Also, some more Gene Colan DRACULA! He kept on doing his thing with TOMB OF DRACULA, issue after issue, on and on, a true burner.

Wolverine to end it, BYE!

THE JONAH HEX - VERTIGO VEDNESDAY

1....

Doodlin' and shit and messin' round with the Hex, which I shouldn't, or he'll put me under the decks! Kind of weird that I had to get this guy into my head thru the movie that's coming up (HELL, it's going to be sooo trashy and goofy...), because I really enjoyed reading TWO GUN MOJO, but I haven't read his book since they gave him the short hair.

Just joking there. The Darwin Cook covers look as awesome as ever and at some point I will get into the Jimmy P run. I hear it's pretty great and straight forward.

"D-,D-,D-DEMON"

OK, this is the first one, if I can sit my butt down to do some more I will post them, I have some more in me. It's great fun what you all got going, a real cool community!

The Half-man: Help me pay off those loans!
