Assorted Revelations...part 2

Further to my 'Assorted Revelations' post I should add that I am still happily working for Sony, for a few weeks at least, and have no gripe with them, just disappointment over the loss of work. This blog acts as a diary of my life as an artist. If there is news about my career then it gets posted here, unless it would be breaking some form of contract or agreement. Sony acted completely fairly and have been extremely supportive. So there!

Here's a very fast sketch (about half an hour) of the 2000AD Dredd cover I was nobly given to do by the Mighty Tharg, editor supreme. A heck of a chance to draw Dredd, full on mean, and with enough time to really have fun with it. You see? Losing some work isn't all that bad! (for once!)

Nice golden shine off the highpoints, should make an amazing and eye-catching cover!

Nice one, Dave. I'd love to see you hand-paint it... forgoing the computer. Can't beat a nice bit of original art in your hands. It may take you longet, but you'll make a bit more dough selling the original.

Cheers guys.

As you'll see from my new post Chris, I'm doing exactly the very opposite of your much appreciated suggestion! I'd love to do this sort of thing fully painted but time is of the essence, as I'm sure you know all about! Maybe one day...
