Hail! The Spectron Lord!

It's been a while. I don't know why I haven't updated this sooner but... better late than never, I suppose.  It's time to add yet another entry to what is probably the most self-indulgent sketch(y) blog ever. So. What do I have today?




Yet another picture I drew last year! (yeah. I got lazy!) I was planning on doing... Something with it! I have no idea what! But I do know that I didn't get round to it(obviously), so instead I did this with it:



Woohoo! Bravo Photoshop! Thought I'd try to mix in a little organic shading with the cell shaded look I've been going for so far. I didn't push it too far as I didn't want to stray to far off my usual path. After all, in this industry (the whole "comic book/illustrator" industry) consistency is key. Plus I just kind've (that's not a word!) wanted to toy around with gradients and burns and stuff to see how that worked out for me...

Anyhow, this big guy right here is a character I created for a comic book did back in high school, partially based on one of my good friends. (you know who you are!) He makes up one half of the villainous duo: The Spectons. I know. The Spectron name is pretty cheesy! But I guess all the good names have already been taken! These guys were supposed to be in the second (and final) chapter of the story, which I never got around to finishing, even though I had the characters and script already mapped out. Hmmm... Perhaps it's time to revisit that ol' familiar road...
That was a relatively short entry. But it's all been said. Hope ya'll enjoyed. I gotta get back to... partaking in all kinds of skullduggery. If you've made it this far, you can give yourself a pat on the back.
