I wrapped it up in record time, thanks to the simpler coloring style. Actually it complemented the lines really well, so that worked out great. I think the surprising thing about not drawing for a year is that I’m actually better at faces than I was when I left. On the downside, I’m worse at [...]
Having a deadline helps! I’m going to try to get this one wrapped up in time for a contest that ends on Sunday. I’m going to go simple on the colors, maybe a cel-shaded style. Wish me luck.
What’s up, peeps? So I finally finished a drawing… sort of.

OK, so I’m mostly a developer/programmer professionally these days, but every once in a while, I find myself doing a little bit of character illustration. Here are a couple recent works, and some notes about how they were received. First of all, here’s a character I drew for a certain bank headquartered here in the [...]
Yes, I’ve been MIA for a while now. Here’s a little something I was working on when the blog blew up a few (6?) months back. The night I was going to publish it and that shout-out for Mike Turner was the night I realized my blog–along with my professional and clients sites–was hosed. That [...]

Also I realized I should have been coloring Niobe’s lips green all along. Much more natural with her skin. Anyways, here’s a little practice image… And if [...]
My fellow conspirator Andrew is back, and he’s provided some text for this teaser image. Click to enlarge.
For some reason, I always like drawing hair. Very happy with the way this one came out. I could see this one hanging in a salon someday. Print is available.
Rumor has it that Andrew is returning to work on the writing front soon. In the meantime, here’s the art for a character study of a heel in the story.
Ankhammentu.com is the home of the somewhat-defunct web comic of the same name. More to the point these days, it's the art blog and resource site of crazy vector artist jwebster45206.
We believe our other contributing author is lost somewhere in the Bermuda Triangle, but he is much happier now.
