WHAT MAY BROUGHT TO MY DRAWING BOARD

DARKSEID vs LOKI vs BLACK ADAM
Drawn for the Character Battle Royale over at Outcast Studios ( http://www.outcaststudios.com )
My character of choice was Darkseid and I put him in the middle of the melee.
Was very fun, if a bit stressful as the deadline began to beat down on me.
The stark red, white and black color scheme is a result of being in a hurry.
Very WHITE STRIPES isn't it?



STATIC
Long before DC's MILESTONE universe, came GLOBAL COMICS by my brother and myself.
My little brother started our homemade comics line way back when and it wasn't long before I was drafted onto the staff of the tiny "company".

Static was the first female character I created for our comics.
A half-alien mutant with green hair and control of static electricity, I based her suit nearly completely on Bill Willingham's Morningstar from THE ELEMENTALS.

FREAKY FRANKENSTEIN TOM-FOOLERY



As a salute to the great Bernie Wrightson, I wanted to draw his version of the Monster created by Doctor Frankenstein.  Probably the best of my digital Muro sketches using REDRAW.

MORE MURO MADNESS



Wanted to do a speedy drawing of the Hulk and this is what showed up on the screen.

MURO REDRAW TRY-OUT WITH SPIDEY

DeviantArt is always improving it's onsite art program, the MURO.
The latest thing is that it will record your process for playback.
Gave it a try...

Fun and educational, eh kids?

LOCKJAW, TORO, THE GIGGLER & HIGH SCHOOL of the DEAD


Never tried to draw the most powerful pooch in the Marvel Universe
until this, but he was a fun time.  His head is just so massive...



Toro, the Human Torch's partner, is another new one--had to remember
how Burgos portrayed the originals with less expressive faces, still
some of the way Kirby portrayed Johnny Storm creeped in.


David Witherington's "The Giggler" as portrayed by me.  Was told his wacky origin and
that his look is quite a bit based on Frank Gorshin's portrayal of The Riddler from
the original 1966 BATMAN series.



Didn't really have much time to work on this one, the main character from the Manga/Anime
HIGH SCHOOL OF THE DEAD, which is a over the top tale of a zombie apocalypse
with loads of action, melodrama and eye candy.
