Simple Color and A Resolution

Original inked version here, or just scroll down the blog.

I'm trying to get back into the swing of things, I guess. I attended a semi-inspiring "Visionaries" artist panel with JH Williams III, Bill Sienkiewicz and Michael Golden at a comic con yesterday, talking about how they broke into the industry, among other ripe topics. I really gotta get off my duff already.

Two months later...

I had tried for a real long time to do this in a real painterly way, with rendered flesh tones and all that, but it really was going nowhere. I guess I was just looking at way too much pretty Adam Hughes art for my own good, and was subconsciously trying to emulate that. When I realized what I was doing, I scrapped that and just messed around. In the end, I had fun and I learned something. That's worth a two-month wait, right?
