I should take more time to come up with catchy titles to my paintings. As some may know I working on some stuff to send to Marvel and here is an additional piece to that end. Cyclops has always been one of my favorite characters and the image of his optic blast is a striking visual.
I’ve begun putting together a portfolio to send to Marvel comics. My goal is to get some card illustration is possible even some cover work. With that in mind I got quite a few pieces planned out. A few pinups like you might see in a Marvel Masterpieces card and then later some much more intricate pieces.
This first one is Kitty Pryde of the X-men. She’s always been one of my favorite characters. Excalibur was one of my first comics back when you could buy them from 7-11. I’m working on much more of a painterly style. To that end I’ve discovered Corel Painter (actually rediscovered). I’ve been so used to Photoshop all these years and Painter is a bit of a different animal. I love squishy paint.
Thanks for looking and have a great day!
