Eli Minaya’s Rambo
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.
Mitch Byrd: Rambo
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.
Collider: Where Laws of Physics Are Unpredictable
What would it be like to live in a world where the laws of physics were unpredictable? We’ll find out when Collider by Simon Oliver [writer], Robbi Rodriguez [artist] and Rico Renzi [colorist] hits comic shops this fall. But why wait until fall to learn more, when you can read this interview at CBR.com with Oliver and Rodriguez?
Thomas Boatwright Sends in a Maniac
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
Walking Dead 100: Roll Call of the Dead
That’s just half of the wrap-around cover by Charlie Adlard for the 100th issue of The Walking Dead. You can see a 100th-issue-worthy-sized poster of the cover here thanks to CBR.com.
It’s hard to believe that The Walking Dead is almost to the 100th issue. I can remember my excitement after reading the first issue and making this post recommending it way back in November of 2004. The Walking Dead quickly became my favorite regularly published comic and I posted about it a lot over the years.
Now with the ever-increasing popularity of the tv series and the publicity from the 100th issue milestone, it looks like we’re in for several more years of Walking Dead greatness. My only fear is that there won’t be enough room on the cover of issue 200 for a roll call of the dead.
Rowan Stock Moore’s Snow White
I am really impressed with Rowan Stocks Moore’s minimalist movie poster for Disney’s Snow White.
Eric Merced and Jack Carter
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.
Shawn Surface Brings The Law
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?
Sly in “A Fistful of Dollars” and More ; )
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
Wolverine or 2 Bat Men
I saw Wolverine first and then the 2 Bat Men. Pretty clever drawing, eh?
And a tip o’ the cowl to Geek World Order.
Mike Torrance Scores a Victory
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.
Edmondson & Klein: Dancer
That’s a very clever image [cover?] to promote Nathon Edmondson and Nic Klein’s new series Dancer.
Tom Hodges, Sly & Expendables, Too
This week we have Sly from Expendables 2 by Tom Hodges. I discovered Tom’s art through his DA site. I saw that Tom was going to be drawing live on UStream so I commissioned several sketches. Tom still draws regularly on UStream and it’s always a blast watching him sketch and interacting with the crowd.
Sin City Game Designs
Since we were talking about Sin City yesterday. I thought you might like to see some character designs for a Sin City game that never got past the development stage. [And don’t some of those design drawings look like something that John Beatty drew? He didn’t.]
