Introducing... the YMCAgent.

Introducing a new character from the Discotronic Funk Commandos universe - the YMCAgent. Is this camp crusader a friend or foe of the Funky heroes? Only time will tell....

First character sketch, drawn using Manga Studio.

Dredd Colours

Here is the Judge Dredd sketch that I posted previously that I had drawn using Manga Studio.... coloured by my good friend Sam Palmer:

I'm really pleased with how this looks... Sam has done an awesome job colouring it! You can check out Sam's site and work here at www.sam-palmer.co.uk.

Sal Buscema Hulk... inked by yours truly

Here's my attempt at some digital inking, over some original Sal Buscema pencils in Manga Studio. I'm loving the different comic-style brushes you can use in that program, and am really pleased with how this has come out.

Pencils by Sal Buscema, inks by Simon Williams.

The pencils are from an unused Marvel Universe Handbook image by Sal, which I absolutely love!  Special thanks to Eelco Veldhuizen for allowing me to post this, as he owns the original pencils. Check out Eelco's INCREDIBLE collection of original Sal Buscema art at www.comicartcollection.com.

Bananaman!

After my Desperate Dan sketch earlier, I couldn't resist doing another re-imagining. This time of another old favourite of mine.. Bananaman!

Drawn in Manga Studio... dedicated to original Bananaman artist John Geering (with apologies to legendary artist John Byrne for the use of his classic Superman pose!)

UPDATE: And here's a colour version, done using ProCreate for the iPad. Just for fun ;)

Some UK Classics From The Comics...

Here are a couple of recent digital sketches that I have drawn using Smith Micro's excellent Manga Studio. First up, is my own re-imagining of an all-time favourite comic character of mine, the DANDY's very own DESPERATE DAN!

Darn tootin'!
With the greatest respect to Dudley D. Watkins, creator
of Desperate Dan.

Next up is a sketch that was inspired by a certain trailer I watched yesterday (which looks BRILLIANT by the way)..... quite simply, he IS the law.

"What do you mean, I sound like Dirty Harry?"

I'm really enjoying trying out drawing digitally. Hope you like the pictures!
