Drawing and Stuff

kybearfuzzI've not been online much this week. It's been a long week at work and I've been spending a lot of my week nights working on the next issue of my comic book. I'm happy to say that I finished penciling all the interior pages tonight. Now I start inking, which generally takes a bit longer, but I'm going to make an effort to post and read a bit.
I did do a bit of side drawing at least, just to get myself in the mood a little bit more.
Last night, I was working on a side cartoon and decided to try out the whole "Steampunk" style. When I went to a Halloween party this year, the hosts are a couple of very handsome guys who dressed as Steampunk cowboys. They looked great. I've seen the style in a few other places, usually book covers and the occasional comic book strip. This one is my version of a Steampunk gentleman. I imagine his coat goes longer and has a lot of techno-gadgetry attached.
In plotting comic book issues, I have been looking for villain ideas. I thought about creating a pair of Steampunk cowboy characters as potential villains. Once I get the next issue done, I may do some test sketches to see how they'd turn out.

Date: 2015-01-12 04:50 am (UTC)You should check that your steampunk cowboys have the proper credentials before you cast them as villains. Being in the Union of Mad Scientists (which I'm sure they are, being steampunks) gets you a bunch of membership benefits from the Society for World Domination, and that used to mean that you got free League of Villainy stuff, too, but SWD recently left the Association of Evil Associations, so now all you get from LoV is a big discount on dues if you join both organizations. Which, I dunno, maybe it's worth it if you go to a lot of the workshops they hold, but it's just so much work to stay a member in good standing... Anyway, the thing is, if you do Villainy events without pre-registering? They charge you TRIPLE to do the back-processing! I mean, I get it, villains, but still. Rude.
