Wanda Maximoff...


... aka, Scarlet Witch. First met her in a 1976 Avengers annual and promptly fell under her hex.

Taz 4 Dylan



Just over a month ago an old friend died suddenly from a fall caused by a seizure. He was a a big fan of Taz and back in at the beginning of this century I created a birthday card for him which depicted Taz made-up as Darth Maul (The Phantom Menace having only just recently come out). The original card was far more basic and which was a flat coloured ink drawing (see below). Now, as a tribute to him, I've recreated it with more detail and effect. If you can see it, Dyl, I hope you like it.

My My, Ma Ma lives!

More WIP for upcoming Dredd-related work I'm playing around with. Still needs some tweaks - her left wrist needs thickening up, for instance - but this should work for the final composition. Still not 100% sure as to which technique I'm gonna use for the final...

Twitter Layout's Cool

Twitter has a really good layout at present. Hope they don't change it too soon; most social media sites can't help tweakin' and tinkerin'. Just saying.

Too Close!

...for comfort.
This was one of the very first images I created a couple of years ago, back when I got my Cintiq. I was trying new techniques (for me) such as photoshop textures and patterns. That weapon looks mighty weird and dysfunctional (as do the fingers), but I still like the pose and general effect. Onward!

Triple Cowpoke!

Strange folk abroad in the misty swamps...
Patterns in photoshop are great to add time saving details and effects. I pulled this old drawing from the virtual sketchpad to try some pattern making in the shirt, face, hat and neckerchief. Also added a bit of shadow to help create some volume...good fun.

Skull City Defence Girls

Some recent colouring up. Really love the effect but it's still taking too long to execute. The idea is to get the process time down to where it could be commercially viable. Not there yet...
Process for the inking stage can be found here:
