Sharp Lead and Wet Ink-Tales from the Art Side

This Blog is dedicated to my pursuit of getting published. I have been plying away at this for almost two decades with limited success. I am not looking for fame or fortune, although it would be a nice side benefit, but rather an opportunity to create and express myself. There are many talented artist out there that have helped me along the way and I am hoping that my getting published will be payback for all of the time that they have invested in me.

This image was done as a pin-up for an upcoming issue of Monster Squad. Lately i have not been inking my own work but with commision pieces I end up doing both pencils and inks. These characters are Vlad Tepis, he's the dangerous looking one and the is is Kid Mummy, I won't state the obvious. I used a mix of Hunt Crowquill #102 ans a Sharff Pure Red Sable Brush. The ink used was Speedball Superblack and the paper was 4-ply Blue Line Pro Board.
