Hey kids, Sketches!

Here's some recent sketches! These are also posted in the Dos Illustros sketchblog. As always click on the images for a bigger version:

One of my favorite Marvel characters: classic X-men Nightcrawler quick sketch for Sketch Dailies, all digital (Adobe Ps, Kyle T. Webster brushes, Wacom Cintiq, Adobe Ai for type- Palooka from Blambot). He was created by Len Wein and Dave Cockrum, debuting on a new mutant team with Sunfire, Banshee, Storm, Colossus, Thunderbird, and Wolverine on "Giant-Size X-men #1":

Watched "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" movie a week back, solid action and comic movie! Here's a classic Kirby "coming-atcha!" style Cap, done with a Palomino Blackwing on the Moleskine. Cap was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby before Marvel even happened:

BTW, I also finished reading "Marvel Comics: The Untold Story" by Sean Howe. Lots of interesting backstory and drama from the Stan and Jack days until now! Stan is great but IMHO Long Live The King.


I watched a lot of wrestling as a kid both in PR and the US! My favorites were Carlitos Colon, Los Super Medicos, Los Invaders, Abdullah the Butcher, and even had a namesake in Hugo Savinovich. In the US, the Ultimate Warrior was one of the most exciting characters to watch because he was so colorful yet such a mystery, Rest In Peace. Done in Palomino Blackwing on Moleskine:

Holiday Card!

Here is my Holiday card for 2011! You can check out the initial sketches at the Dos Illustros blog by clicking on the blog name. It was inspired by one of my favorite illustrators, Jim Flora, and finished digitally in Adobe Illustrator (Fonts are Kon Tiki Aloha and Aloha Ligatures). My brother and I will be heading out to Puerto Rico to see our parents and grandparents during Christmas. Internet access will be limited but I hope to post again by the time I'm back before the new year comes.

I've still yet to see the new Muppets movie, of which I've heard nothing but good things. Maybe just before the trip?

I hope you guys have a great holiday season and enjoy the break! See you in the new year!
