What?

"What?" you ask...?
"I just thought it was sorta funny." I says.
Done on a lark without much attention paid to detail, the pencils and inks took maybe an hour total.

Nasty little beastie...

Just more fun with random style monsters and what not. I feel the colors on the little phallic like monster guys in the back could be WAY better - I'm going to work on beefing that up.
Over all it's fun in a "run for your life" kinda way.
Drawn somewhat small-ish at about 8.5x14, from pencils to inks to digital junk it took about 4 hours to do, give or take.

Minions

Not much to say about this one - it started off as a self-portrait (the profile in the foreground is my profile) and rapidly turned into something else.
I figure hey, EVERYONE can always use more minions...
Drawn at about 14 x 17 (give or take a little) and between pencils, inks and digital colors it took about 4 and a half hours in total to get to this point.

The Nebule... DEUCE!

This is another photo manipulation of burning coals. I took the picture at The Mirage coffee house in mid-town Long Beach. As a result I named it The Mirage Nebula. Again I used the same photo of the stars I got from The Astronomy Picture of the Day website. This time however I also added in a picture of the moon I also took with my camera phone.
I used photoshop to put it all together.

I wish I had the specific link so I could properly credit those responsible for the photograph of the star cluster Messier 67 (Messier after Charles Messier who cataloged hundreds and hundreds of objects in the night sky). I believe it was a Hubble image but I could be mistaken about that.

The Nebule...

of my mind....
This photo manipulation was made from some images I had taken with my camera phone
(of all things). It was pictures of some glowing ash in my friends backyard fire pit. It just struck me as being very nebulous so I used them and an image of a star field I had gotten from The Astronomy Picture of the Day website ( http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/archivepix.html ).
After some manipulation and photoshoping I put the various images together to create what I called The Herbold Nebula in honor of the friend whos house I was at when I took the pictures and had the idea.

The Indiana Jones Adventures

This is basically not much more then a sketch that I threw together in photoshop to get an idea of how I wanted a project I wanna work on to look. I want to change up Indys stance - it's too stiff here.
Hopefully I'll be able to get it done someday soon.

Surprise

These are pages 2, 3 and 4 of a little 4 page storyboard I did for my comic portfolio. Page one is a splash page I haven't inked in yet.
It's morning - the man gets up and looks at the woman in bed with him. He heads off to the shower and when he re-enters the room she is awake and up (if not totally nude).
He commences with his morning man-scaping only to see the woman pull a weapon.
She fires.
Until you turn the page it would be thought she was shooting at him until we see the demon-monster "phasing" through the wall.
I must admit I'm not too terribly fond of how these turned out. I like them a lot more in person (as it were). I feel they loose something on the computer screen. Even still though there is something I am not satisfied with and I cant quite put my finger on it.
Anyway each page from pencils to inks took between 6 to 8 hours.
