Hi, I like comics, video games and art. I'm a wannabe illustrator with no formal training. Currently based out of Seattle. Prints of some of my work are available at society6.com/s133pdeadart
Characters 21-30/30 (Mission Complete!!)
21/30 – Amelia. She’s a ghost!
22/30 – Blech. Another WTF creature.
23/30 – Righteous Slaughter. A true founding father of this great nation.
24/30 – Avenging Pequot Warrior. In honor of the 700 massacred Pequot Native Americans.
25/30 – Slugger. He punches things. In space.
26/30 – Fluffy the Pirate. Named after one of my PAX Enforcer brothers, I mostly just wanted to draw a pirate with a Lemmy.
27/30 – Artslinger. This is the front turnaround for another contest, but I drew it in November, so whatever. Think having powers like Green Lantern, but through art supplies.
28/30 – The Scholar. Ended up looking like Gordon Freeman. Unintentional.
29/30 – Tengu. I didn’t draw any anthropomorphic creatures for this thing. Not my bag, really. Still, gotta cover all the bases.
30/30 – s133pDEAD! Okay, so it’s kind of a cop out, but I’m super stoked to have completed this challenge and also my beard deserves to be immortalized!
Characters 10-20/30
10/30 – Roxie the Racer Queen. Figured on some Mad Max post-apocalyptic type thing. I wanted to draw a squished up minibike, like Akira Toriyama would back in the day.
11/30 – Funcrusher Plus. Upgrade on Funcrusher, the 2.0 if you will. It was inevitable.
12/30 – Razorblade Romantic. Another character based off a memorable album title (HIM’s Razorblade Romance). Mostly, I just wanted to draw a dude with a pompadour and a razorblade.
13/30 – The Blind Boxer. This was the last one I’d done after a very long night, kinda copped out with a quick brush pen illustration. Blind Shaolin fighter.
14/30 – Clean-Up. After some lazy submissions, felt like doing some detail work on this one.
15/30 – Det. Robert Booker. Straight laced, no nonsense cop.
16/30 – Piggy Pig. Booker’s partner. Name’s how the criminal element in town refer to him.
17/30 – The Persistent Hunter. Undead cowboy bounty hunter.
18/30 – The Hermit. Wizened old ninja master hermit type.
19/30 – Grimace the Goblin. Another late night cop out.
20/30 – Riot Grrl. DIY vigilante heroine protecting her city.
Eleanor 9/30
Here is Eleanor. She is a prohibition era vampire hunter. She packs silver bullets hot loaded with a holy water and garlic cocktail because she is gangsta like that.
Sasuke 8/30
In the grand tradition of ninja henchmen named Sasuke, here is another. This one is a smoker.
Tojiro 7/30
Had the inspiration to do a wandering ronin type character whilst watching 13 Assassins last night. Variation of the name, “Toshiro,” in honor of The Man, aka Toshiro Mifune (he’s not in the movie, obvi). This one was really, really quick and inked it with straight ink and brush, no washes. Come to think of it, I’ve been so busy and crazy playing catch up, I haven’t done a proper line art/wash piece for this project yet. We’ll see if I get there.
Derby Destroyer 5/30
Sketched this out on my Moleskine whilst spectating my first roller derby bout.
Funcrusher 3/30
Another character based on a phrase. This time, Company Flow’s classic burner, Funcrusher Plus. Dude ended up looking kinda like Mumm-Ra. Oh well.
Blarg 2/30
Pretty much the gnarliest thing I could think of. This was actually for a creature contest my friend was running earlier this month, but whatever. Still came up with it in November 2012.
The Weekend Warrior 1/30
My first entry! Sketched this quickly before moving from Boston to Seattle (resulting in a delay in my posting and having time to attend to this project), based solely on the phrase “Weekend Warrior.” There is a small biography on the side for those who can read my handwriting. I probably won’t be going so in depth as to come up with backgrounds for the other 29 characters.
