Hey everyone. I figured that since a couple of the boardmembers have their own "files" going, I would start one of my own. This one will feature drawings of mine. This is actually a big step for me, to let you all in to my personal sketchbook. Most will be sketches, but you will see a lot of "start to finish" work also.I hope you all enjoy whatever I post, and feel free to critique on what you see. This first pic is one that I am doing for Joe.

Thanks for the comments about the eyes. Certain styles or looks come from certain moods that I am in. This one is not drawn for anyone in particular, because it is going on Shi-bay(e-bay). I have asked Billy in the past if I could try to auction some drawing and he gave me his full blessing. The pose is actually(looking around for my wife) based off my wife. She was kind of kidding with me one day when I told her of a couple people who had purchased some work from me, and I told her of the pin up art that I am in to. She then struck a seductive pose that stuck in my mind.

Joe, that top pic is for you. As far as e-bay goes, I want to put a couple up at a time, so I want to make a good impression with good work. All of your compliments and interest only speed along the process. Thanks to you all.

Also, who was asking for the Tomoe pic? I'm not sure which post it was that someone was inquiring about her. I could post a pic of what I have done so far if you want.

That was me asking for the Tomoe piece, Kikuchiyo! I was offering you a Michael Turner print for trade if you don't recall. A pic would be cool, thanks.

Alright already! You certainly know how to flatter someone. Here it is, and like the others it is a work in progress.

Cool. I'm glad that you like it. It is drawn on regulation comic art board, so it should fit in perfectly.

Very impressive, if I saw your work at a con I would be sure to stop at a table and pic some up. I to love the pin-up style and really like your work.

Thanks Joe. I try. Sometimes when I am on a roll, I can do some really good stuff that I am impressed with. Then other times I suck like you wouldn't believe and wonder why even try. But, to hear the great compliments that I am getting here, boosts my esteem and makes me want to do more for everyones viewing pleasure.
Cali Gs' thanks a whole bunch. That is one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. I really appreciate that. You have put a smile on my face so large that it hurts. ;D Though I don't know if getting a table at a con will ever be an actuallity, just the thought is wonderful, and it gives me something else to daydream by.

Here is a pic that I did of the White Queen last year. I like the smooth tones used here.  I wish that I had brightened it up some, as a lot of the quality is lost.

Here is an updated pic from before. I believe I will be done in one more session.  I think I darkened it too much in photoshop.
