Bella Muetre Tattoo Design

This is a design for my wife. She likes the Bella Muerte style, and here Dad had a Grimm Reaper Tattooed on his forearm. Im memorial to him she would like to have this, or something like it tattooed. We will likely have RJM added into the blade of the scythe.
This image was done with ink and Watercolour paint. The only adjustment in the computer was to remove the paper colour, which was a dark cream.

Redraw of the Archies

 Whenever I see the Archies redrawn to look more modern I hate the style they choose. The Archies are iconic, making them difficult to change. if anything they should be done even more graphically like the 50's/60's almost block graphic style you see in beer posters, or Betty Page / hot-rod stuff.
Here are the Archies done in my hand. The illustration is actually a bit older, as I forgot to upload it. Maybe 2 - 3 years old. If I did comic books, I would love to do the Archies.
Veronica Lodge

Archie Andrews

Betty. What is Betty's last name anyways?

Jughead Jones

Mr. Lodge

Reggie. another where I don't know his last name.

Dilton. I think it's Dilton anyways. the smart guy.

Handwriting

Sometimes my handwriting can come in handy.
by emphasizing the curves it creates a look that is marketable and easy to create.
this commemorative addition to a client's graphics took a short time to create, and made them happy.

Monage Girl

This is the first half of a promotional Image for BushLeagueTV.com
there are 2 colour options shown. This is the second version I did of the illustration I did. I re-did the illustration at a larger size because I felt the original didi not capture enough detail.
They will soon be place on a background to complete the image.

Tsay Keh Dene Illustrated Logo

An illustration and logo design for Tsay Keh Dene Outfitters (hunting guides).
The hard part on this one was getting the colouring accurate, as the client knows their stuff.
