Wednesday, July 3, 2013

For the one year anniversary of my blog, Alex G. In Los Angeles, I'm posting this artwork of mine from 2012 which visitors of my blog will know. Yes friends, one year ago I posted my first post titled Greetings . Since then within that year, I posted over 82 posts (82 are still here, several were taken out). A blog is a great way to share your art.

Some sketchbook drawings

Thursday, June 27, 2013

Doug Food

Another Garbage Pail Kid concept of mine. The names I have for him are Doug Food, Purina Pete, Doug Chow, Chucky Chow. I like this guy! I can see him coming out of a 1980s Garbage Pail Kids wax pack as a finished painting. He's based on a GPK sketch from a sketchbook of mine which I'll post here as well.

This is the sketchbook drawing from 2011 that I based Doug Food/Purina Pete on.

Assorted GPK drawings

These are some assorted Garbage Pail Kid drawings of mine, all drawn before I drew most of the GPK concepts that I sent to Topps beginning in mid or late March 2012. A lot of these are from 2011, all except the Conte chalk drawing (with Sepia brown chalk) are from a sketchbook that I was using back then. For many of these (including the chalk drawing which I drew in a few minutes) I used no reference, while for some I used some reference, but all poses and faces are original.

The drawing from a sketchbook showing a GPK whose vomit has brought the dog some treats will be turned into a full GPK concept of mine and I'll post that most likely in June, maybe even today if I have it finished. In the concept drawing the GPK will be vomiting into a dog food bowl, bones coming out etc. with the little dogs ready to munch. I have a lot more various assorted GPK drawings which I'll post soon.

Spider-Man drawing June 24th

I finished drawing the background and coloring this Spider-Man drawing of mine that I posted in April without the background and without color. I want to finish and color as many as I can.

Spider-Man drawings June 21st

This pencil drawing is the initial version of the colored Spider-Man drawing that I posted above. In this earlier version I hadn't finished drawing the front of the train and I had drawn Spider-Man's head too small , though I like the look of Spider-Man's face in this drawing as well.

Spider-Man drawings June 14th

Two versions of a partly inked drawing showing Spider-Man in his black costume. The Spider-Man part of the drawing goes back to 1996 or 1997, at which time it was finished in pencil, then in 2014 I drew more of the background and began inking and finished inking the Spider-Man part of the drawing on June 14th. The version showing the new background with super-Ninjas will be finished soon (update 2021 Dec: I will post the finished work here in early 2022). This is an original pose, not adapted from someone else's.

Update, Dec 2021: I've added the label {Spider-Man art} to this post, so if you want to click on that label (you will find the label below this post, you have to go to web version to see the label, not mobile version) you will be able to quickly get to my other blog posts featuring my Spider-Man artwork. And I will have new Spider-Man works added in 2022.

Gunky Gunther

Another Garbage Pail Kid concept of mine, I finished this drawing today, had him/her sketched out in that layout either in late February or early March 2013. I named him/her Gunky Gunther, Minnie Mouse. At 8:02 PM I posted a slightly corrected version of the drawing I posted at 6:49PM.

Doomed Dom

Another Garbage Pail Kid concept of mine, almost finished drawing him today. I named him Doomed Dom, his other name may be Freefall Paul, Screwed Jude, In Peril Gerald. His parachute has a big tear in it, and all kinds of junk is falling out, mostly forks, spoons, there's also a tin can and a mouse falling out. I still have to finish his parachute pack (those details require additional research) and the backdrop of the outspread land far below.

Shoe Horner

Another Garbage Pail Kid concept of mine, he's old school and good to go. This pint-sized GPK's tongue is stiff, long and shaped like a shoehorn/shoespoon, and that's what that man with the smelly feet is using him as. I named him Shoe Horner, ShoeSpoon Sean may be the second name for him.

Bobby Odor

Another new Garbage Pail Kid concept by me and drawn by me, I named him Bobby Odor, Funky Frank, Stinky Stan, Armpit Armand, Under Armand, Pollutin' Pete. I have other names for him which I'll post later. I sketched him out in early March 2013, got back to him today and almost finished the drawing. I'll finish it tomorrow, mostly the two people on the bus need to be finished, they're almost finished though.

Ensnarled Carl

Another new Garbage Pail Kid concept by me and drawn by me. I sketched this Garbage Pail Kid in February and March 2013. I've named him Ensnarled Carl, Bob Wire, Snagged Sam/Sam Snagged. This drawing is almost finished, I just want to finish the two guard towers behind him and draw in the clouds in the sky more.
