That’s the latest photo from Riddick. Diesel is in top form and will move from post-production on Riddick to the next Fast movie. Good times.
ComingSoon has a larger version of the photo above as well as a Riddick gallery.
The Rambo drawing above is by the very talented Eli Minaya. I met Eli at this year’s MegaCon. I’d never seen Eli’s art before, but decided on the spot to see about getting a con sketch from him. Eli was up for it and Rambo seemed the natural choice. As you can see from the piece above, it was.
With the Sly’s recent discussion about a new Rambo story brewing, there’s been a lot of speculation that Sly might kill off everyone’s favorite warrior. I received word from Sly who writes….
So no need to worry, Rambo’s not gong to see the Grim Reaper anytime soon! – Craig
This is my second Mitch Byrd sketch. You can see the first here. It’s rare to see Mitch at conventions but I’ve been lucky enough to meet up with him at MegaCon a couple of times. When Mitch makes an appearance, I try to get on his list. Look at his art and you can see why.
Since a picture is worth 1,000 words, I just saved 989.
Thomas Boatwright is back and with a vengeance. He knows you have to send a maniac to catch a maniac.
If you’d like to see more of Thomas Boatwright’s art check out his blog and his DA site. Send him some love.
If you get commissions, you should consider a piece from Thomas. He keeps you totally in the loop on his progress, finishes his commissions on or ahead of schedule, has very reasonable prices, is a fantastic artist and always gives you more than you’re expecting! – Craig
According to this report at Spinoff Online, both Mickey Rourke and Rosario Dawson are set to return to Sin Ciity, when the sequel begins filming this summer. This is the best news I’ve heard all week.
Lance Sawyer is back, this time with his take on Sly as Freddy from Cop Land. I saw Lance was taking on some sketch and sketch card commissions, so I jumped on board.
If you’d like your own commission or to see more of Lance’s art, you can right here.
Here’s a sketch card of Sly as Jack Carter that Eric Merced did when I bought his sketchbook back in 2010. I’m pretty sure this was the first sketchcard that I ever got and it somehow eluded being posted until today. You can see more of Eric’s art at his site and his DA home.
As cool as the retro-looking poster for The Samaritan is, I like the trailer even better. Samuel L. Jackson as a newly released ex-con under pressure from his parole officer to “not even jaywalk” and his ex-partner’s [who Jackson killed} son’s gang forcing him back into the life… yeah, I’m in.
Today we have Sly as Judge Dredd by Shawn Surface. Shawn is an all-around nice guy and his art should be getting more attention. This is the first of three pieces that I recently picked up from Shawn. The other two will be posted in the coming weeks. Until then, why not check out his site and give him some love?
Empire has an area devoted to movie poster mash-ups. In the Sylvester Stallone section there are several very clever posters. Here are three of my favorites. – Craig
Sly Stalleone in F.I.S.T.ful of Dollars by Zack Ryan
Driven starring Sly Stallone by Zach Ryan
Sylvester Stallone & Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Bucket List by Piccolo135
Here’s the teaser for the trailer of the Colin Farrell remake of Total Recall?
Mike Torrance aka The Krayola Kidd scores a “Victory” with his take on Sly as Captain Richard Hatch from one of Sly’s most under-rated movies.
You can see more of Mike’s art at The Daily Sketch with The Krayola Kidd and his Deviant Art site. Mike is available for commissions and his prices are very reasonable.
