Stuff I like...

This is a guy I've been enjoying for a while. Duncan Fegredo has been in the game for a while but its been his recent Hellboy work that's really put him on the map. If you read any of that stuff you know just how crazy he is. From his Darkness Calls arc till now he's been so fantastic I really don't care if Mignola ever stops cashing his movie royalty checks and eating donuts. The best place to start I think would be darkness calls #3, when the wolves come come out of the woods to save HB from the army of zombie vikings...it's just...Wow. I don't think his style is something I can look to for my new book, but its just my cup of gravy. This is some samples

Some more Hercules work.

Still working on Hercules and his partner, still not fully there on his definitive look. Need to work more, hopefully he'll reveal himself in my labor.

Stuff I'm working on

Here's a taste of what I got so far: some cart studies, 1920's boxer, and typical Hercules sketch. I think the boxer is the one that is most interesting and will probably end of influencing the look of my Hercules the most. (I'm doing a comic about Hercules set in the 1920's. hopefully.)Also, I don't seem to know how to upload pictures properly into posts, so if anyone knows the ins and outs to that and wants to leave a comment with tips, you would be pretty cool.


Stuff I like #1



this is someone I've enjoyed recently. The artist is Ben Stenbeck, a New Zealand based comic artist who just did some work for the Mignola books. If you pick up anything of his you'll notice he likes to vary his detail on people, but it never feels like he's being sloppy or quick about it. He comes from that group of guys which are obviously very influenced by Mignola but have taken it in a positive and original direction. His website is full of good stuff, and he seems to have some talent in traditional painting as well. http://www.benstenbeck.com/ check it out!
