Grimlock Colours

Went for the watercolour look again with this one. Seems to be the way I am working at the moment. Its usually done over the top of pencils but this one is the first colouring that I have done like that over inks. Seems to work o though :-)

Grimlock Inks

Inks for the Auto Assembly GRIMLOCK card.
Next, colours

Grim!

Been a while since I did one of these but Simon Plumbe asked me to do an illustration of Grimlock for the upcoming UK Transformers Convention, AUTOASSEMBLY2009.
this is the rough blue pencil sketch. Now to get some ink on it and see where that takes me :-)

Who??

Not been on here for a while so thought I better say hi :-)
Just bumped into a video on the net of me gassing away. I thought I would post it here not because I am an egomaniac but more because I talk about a couple of things that actually sound reasonably interesting ;-)
I was interviewed at OMEGA SEKTOR during one of our Draw the World Together events. I was questioned about DtWT, how it started and what we do so anyone wanting the background on that, have a listen. I was also asked about how I got started in comics which is something that I often get so that may be of interest to some people as well. Its a bit long but there ya go, I do tend to go on a bit sometimes :-)

How did DtWT all start? And who is Andrew Wildman anyway?

Thor

Never had the chance to draw THOR for Marvel back when I worked for them. The opportunity came up at the latest Bristol Comicexpo when we were sketching for charity for Draw the World Together. Without noticing when I was doing it it it kind of came out with a bit of a Barry Smith vibe. Fun :-)

on eBay

Four pages of Wildman/Sienkiewicz Spider-Man 2099 Marvel Art up for sale on eBay. The one pictured here is the one with the Sienkiewicz 'Batman' doodle on the back. Very cool :-)

Bristol Comicexpo

No cards to post today.
The weekend saw the forst Draw the World Together sketching event without the sponsorship of games company NCsoft.
Artists, David Lloyd, Kat Nicholson, Jason Cardy, Neil Edwards, Andrew Wildman (me), Stephen Baskerville, Lee Bradley, Laura Howell, Andi Tong and Simon Wyatt sketched for the fans on Saturday and took donations. On the Saturday evening there was a small auction of donated items and art. We are still counting but proceeds are looking like being in excess of £600. Not bad for a small convention.
Pictures to follow.
What was great fun for me was meeting up with old collaborator Stephen Baskerville. I havent seen Stephen for quite a few years. We worked on many comics for Marvel a number of years ago such as Transformers and GI Joe. During the sketching event I did pencil sketches and Stephen 'inked' them up with black marker pens. would be cool to get some of these images emailed back. If any turn up I will post them here.
Also met up with Simon Furman for a curry in the evening. Haven't seen him for a while either so lots to chat about.

today's cards

Todays sketchcards

The Auction of cards for the March of Dimes charity continues. Just up are my next two. Optimus Prime and Ratchet

GI Joe sketchcards

A couple more. This time its Snake Eyes and Flint. This could become a habit :-)

Sketch Cards

After the March of Dimes sketchcards went up on eBay (see previous posts) I have had a couple of requests to do more. I did do a few sketchcards a while back just for the fun of it and it would seem like a good idea to keep doing them. No idea what people would like to see so I guess it will just be whatever occurs to me at the time. I guess its an opportunity to try out some random things that I have never had the opportunity to draw for publishers. I haven't worked for DC so a few DC characters might be interesting although I might try and work through every Marvel character I ever drew. Anyone know what they are? If anyone has any suggestion of what they think might be cool let me know. :-)

Transformers Sketchcard auction

The first of three TRANSFORMERS sketchcards are being auctioned for the March of Dimes charity NOW.

Made me laugh

Comicexpo

the DtWT event for BRISTOL COMICEXPO is now sorted. We have a venue in the form of the Summit Room at the Ramada Hotel. There will be artists sketching to raise money for EveryChild from 2pm-5pm. Those currently scheduled to appear include, among others Mike Collins, Neil Edwards, Kat Nicholson, Emma Vieceli and James Hodgkins.
There will also be sketching happening on behalf of DtWT at the Insomnia Comics stand in the Small Press section Where Simon Wyatt and others will be doing their stuff.
Its been a little while since we have done one of these and its the first one with us doing it without our long time sponsors NCsoft. That said, we do have the help of Stephen 'Rockjaw' Reid and Mat Keller (now ex NCsoft) who use to run the shows for us, so its pretty much business as usual.
Will post next week as to how it all went.
