I had started another piece for this theme but ended up not yet finishing it. I was at San Diego Comic Con. So sue me. I did manage to do this commissioned sketch while in San Diego, however, so I'm posting it here for your amusement. It's inspired by a make up design from AMC's The Walking Dead television show. Hope you enjoy it!

Your zombies always knock my socks off sir. How did you manage to do a commission at SDCC without being at a table lol?
ReplyDeleteI had a fan / FB friend that I met at SDCC in 2009 contact me ahead of the show. He asked me to bring him one of my remaining limited edition "Obsolete" prints. He got #9 of 10 (of the "blue version") and he also asked me about doing a new sketch in his sketchbook. In 2009, I did a really quick / not so great Hellboy pencil sketch in that same book. I was hoping for redemption with this. Looking at it now, I could have done a bit more with it. It was late when I got to it and I was absolutely beat. He seemed happy.
DeleteI would have been happy doing other commissioned sketches while there but was ultimately glad this was the only one I did. I was exhausted during a lot of the trip.
Seriously, doing commissions without a table? Awesome dude! That whole open mouth area is hot.
ReplyDeleteThanks, my man! Much appreciated!!!
