Guardians of the Galaxy vol.3? Let's make it happen, yes?

Here's a recent Death's Head sketch that I decided to throw some colours on in Photoshop (threw gently I must add. Death's Head hates people throwing stuff at him).

"James Gunn? Nice name, hrm? Ready for my close up now, yes?"

On a related note, after watching Marvel Studios newest blockbuster, Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 (which I loved every minute of... go see it!), I couldn't help but think how well Death's Head would fit into the Guardians movie franchise. I hope this is something that GotG director James Gunn would consider... as I couldn't think of anyone better to bring ol' DH to the big screen! Hey, you've introduced Sylvester Stallone into Vol.2... maybe this could be a role for his pal Arnie? Just a thought...

Favourite Artists - The Incredible Hulk (Updated)

Being a life-long fan of the Incredible Hulk, it was ambition from a very young age to draw the character professionally... something I'm proud to say I've been able to accomplish on several occasions. Over the years, many artists have drawn the character through his various incarnations... bringing their own unique style to the green (and sometimes grey) goliath. I thought I'd present a list of my favourite artists to ever draw ol' Jade Jaws (and would that make the Grey Hulk ol' Grey Gums?). So, without further ado is my list of favourite artists to have drawn the Incredible Hulk!

PS: Seeing as it's one of the more popular ones on this site. I've added a few more artists to the list. Read on, True Believer!

Hulk vs Wolverine

I've been drawing up sketches for tomorrow's Geekedfest, of which I'm a guest (more infomation here). This sketch is one that I had an idea for recently: my own sketch homage to possibly one of the most homaged covers in comics, Todd McFarlane's epic cover for INCREDIBLE HULK issue 340, in which the Grey Hulk has one of his most brutal battles with the X-Men's Wolverine. My sketch idea was for a Hugh Jackman movie-style Wolverine against a movie-style Hulk, although I'll admit my Hulk has turned out to be more comic-book like! After finishing the sketch, I decided to colour up a digital version, which I'm presenting here. The original sketch (with free Funko Pop Hulk figure!!!) will be on sale tomorrow at the Geekedfest event, which is held at the University of Wales Trinity St David, Townhill Campus (where I studied back in the day!). So be sure to pop by my table, say hi and maybe grab a sketch!

Hope to see you there!
