Oooooooooo! Those are awesome, Mike! Year One style works with every subject. That Lil Darth Maul cracks me up!

they really dont come across scanned.. but yeah - i do love the l'il darth maul. I did an acetate painting of him about a year ago - i wish i could find it..

The 2nd Arwen was a freebie btw - i always thought it was funny that she had such a role in the movies when she wasnt in the books..and no, indices dont count :P BUt yeah, i wasnt sure whether my comissee would appreciate that joke so i gav eit to him as an extra..which i REALLY need to stop doing.

those turned out gorgeous! lil d maul is quite the cutey, but tinkerbell came out striking!

Thanks - Tinkerbell isnt in my normal repertoire - i was quite concerned about that one.. :\

The last two from that comission included Slave Princess Leia and Nancy from Sin City(!!) - How i was to do a stripper in 6 year old form baffled me..

They're getting there but i think i need a new set of pens - it looks to clumsy and cumbersome still.

Also looking forward to when i get my markers and i can do...COLOUR

Edit: As always the scans look pretty genh compared to the originals..not that the originals look WONDERFUL..you know what i mean.

Trying something different here - my pens stink and all the art shops are closed for the holidays so im just trying pencil cards - no ink. (I'll have to ask Perna what protective coating he uses on his..)

So 2 attempts..Cyclops and Angel..

Awesome!!!!! Mike, will shoot you a PM about these...........

Whoah, Mike! You continue to be full of wonderful surprises! Those pencil drawings are fantastic. These pencil drawings is another great arrow to have in your quiver! I love the shading on Cyclops and Angel. I bet a Lil Mysterio would look incredible in this style. I'm going to e-mail ya about this

Wow, the pencil shaded cards are great!
