The Last Magi


The Last Magi will die tonight! What great secrets will he take with him to the grave? Can we survive without his protection? Does he flap those eyebrows to fly?


My first life drawing from life in like, four years (embarrassed) ... It was a lot of fun... I think I'll do more :)

Omni - Oink! the Power - Pig!!!


I thought the Pig People of Padulang would have comics… if they are indeed civilized soooo… here is what I thought a pig comic might look like.

I showed my little girl and she started singing: "Can he swing ... from a web ... no he can't ... he's a pig ... "

nuff said... ;o)

Mer-Man


Now that the value studies are done I'll be moving to color! A most treacherous enterprise even in the best of times. Wish me luck.

RHINO RHINO studies



Here's some studies of real rhinos I did for my upcoming book RHINO RHINO SWEET POTATO. The Rhino's in the book ended up being highly stylized... but it always good to know what the real thing looks like.

Captain Power, Darth Vader and Ratbat!!!

*
*Captain Power*
*

*
*Darth Vader*
*(well, duh!)*
*

*
*Rat-Bat*

Here we have the leader of the soldiers of the future Captain Power. What a great animated show that would make, no?
A slightly different version of Darth Vader. What is with Jedi and Sith always chopping off limbs anyway. They do that allot. I'd like to see a montage of all the limb chopping they do.
Finally, everyone's favorite Deception fuel auditor: Rat-Bat!!! It is theorized Megatron forced Rat-Bat to become one of Soundwave's tapes to keep a better eye on him. I did a sort of combo of the War With in Ratbat, my favorite parts of the original toy and Transformers Animated.

Transformers Animated: Nightbird and Cosmo-Bot #5

*
*Nightbird*
*


One of my favorite episodes of the ol 85' transformers was Enter the Nightbird. Nightbird is a female robot ninja!!! It don't get better than that. I was always so sad she was only in one episode... but maybe that's part of what makes her so cool.
I really wanted to see what Nightbird would look like in the Transformers Animated universe, so I did yet another of my Derrick "the man" Wyatt impressions. (I just love his work so much.)
Find out more about Nightbird over at the transformers wiki and youtube.
