Inking Scarecrow + Swamp Thing 19 Signing

Swamp Thing #19 which features a gatefold cover I drew, comes out next week from DC Comics.
"Cup of Kryptonite" have invited me to do a signing at their store on Wednesday (April 3rd) for the release. I'll be there in the shop from 5:00-7:00 PM. Stop by if you are in the Des Moines, IA area;)

Drawing Scarecrow was one of my favorite parts of the cover art.
Here's some WIP photos from inking Scarecrow, plus one of Swamp Thing's arm, and the full Ink version of Swamp Thing #19 too.

Finally here's a photo detail of the original rough sketch for the Swamp Thing 19 cover.  I really liked the original sketch on this one.  This is where I figured out the composition & basic shapes.  Then the final was done on another paper.

Man of Steel: DC art

Here's a few pencil and ink detail photos from a cover I drew for DC Comics.   This is actually on the gatefold cover for Swamp Thing #19, which DC showed recently. 

Really this is the first time I've ever drawn the Man of Steel. I didn't use photo refs on the character and this is the first thing that came out.  As probably expected with my character art, he has a bit of a dark edge.  Hopefully fanboys will approve.
The book comes out April 3rd;)

Swamp Thing Cover art

I've done some Swamp Thing cover art for DC.  Being that I love Bernie Wrightson's art, it was quite an honor to work on his creation.

Here's some previews of the pencil version for Swamp Thing issue 19 and a concept drawing.  Issue 19 is a massive gatefold cover featuring Scarecrow fighting Swamp Thing. I'm only showing some pencil details and part of the cover in this post.
Keep an eye out for the full and very detailed ink cover which will be shown soon!
