Station Eighty Four - The Malone District

2012-01-08T01:20:00.002-06:00

My Dad's a big fan of science fiction and of trains, I decided to combine the two for a drawing that I gave him for Christmas.

2011-11-14T22:28:00.002-06:00

This week's Armagetto theme was Obscure Myth...so i picked a Greek god that I never heard of. Only had time to do sketch

A Fistful of Datas

2011-11-04T23:24:00.006-05:00

Had the chance to do another TNG poster for Armagetto. Something I did differently with this drawing was I did it in pieces and assembled it in Photoshop instead of doing it all in one illustration.

Happy Halloween

2011-10-31T08:53:00.002-05:00

Here's a quick Halloween cartoon I did the other day for Armagetto

The Reaper's Garden

2011-10-27T16:24:00.002-05:00

This is the second drawing on a masonite board that I was commissioned so that they can then paint.

How it works is they tell me what they want and where they want it on the board. And I try to translate their idea as close as possible and add a few of my own touches here and there.

Indiana Jones and The Rocketeer: The Curse of the Dreyrugr Amulet

2011-10-21T01:52:00.002-05:00

2011-10-18T21:07:00.003-05:00

Last weeks Aramagetto challenge was to reinterpret the cover to The Mighty Thor Annual #2. I decided to go the humorous route...only had time though to do a sketch.

This weeks Armagetto piece. Eventually it'll be colored.

Character Design

2011-09-28T20:19:00.002-05:00

I came across a photo of a gal that's in a rock band and liked her look and thought it'd be a good jumping off point for a possible character. So I used her facial features as a basis, tweeked what I wanted to change and came up with the hair style.

Who knows, she might appear in an issue of "Nevic" down the line.

Genghis Khan & The Mongol Army vs A Horde of Tyrannosaurus Rex's

2011-09-23T19:49:00.001-05:00

The latest Armagetto drawing. It was too big to scan so I had to take a photo of it instead.

Darth Vader in "Surrounded" (In Progress)

2011-09-18T00:16:00.008-05:00

Latest Armagetto piece, this time I came up with too big of a project to complete in a week. Wanted to do an 8 page mini-comic, was only able to fully complete the double-splash page, but since it's mostly penciled you can get an idea of what the story is.

At some point it'll all be completed.

"Box Office: A History" Poster

2011-08-29T22:19:00.003-05:00

Was recently commissioned to do a poster for a local play. It's about a theater employee who gets bored sitting in the box office and imagines himself as a captain of a pirate ship.

Night of the Living Dead

2011-08-16T16:00:00.003-05:00

Someone recently commissioned me to do a pencil drawing of zombies in a graveyard on a 12x16 masonite board which they will then paint.

It has a different kind of texture which made for an interesting time drawing on it, likes to smear a heck of a lot too.

This is the end result.

Lobo and the Princess of Mars

2011-08-12T21:54:00.003-05:00

Lobo decided to take John Carter's place. The latest Armagetto Fabulous post.

Armagetto Fabulous & Etrigan

2011-07-15T17:54:00.005-05:00

Recently myself and some others have started a blog called Armagetto Fabulous . It's where a group of artists pick a theme each week and everyone does a piece of art based on that theme. It's a great way to see different styles approaching the same subject matter.

The first week's theme was Etrigan the Demon from DC Comics and the drawing I did was to make Etrigan as a spoof of Robin as Batman's sidekick since there's been several stories pairing Etrigan and Batman.

2011-01-04T16:08:00.003-06:00

Got bored at work the other night and started sketching on a random piece of cardboard with a sharpie. Came out better than I thought it would so I brought it home, cleaned up some of the edges and here it be. Think I spent about 6-7 minutes on it.

Scorpion Tattoo Part III

2009-12-09T19:10:00.001-06:00

After talking with the tattoo artist, the guy wanted the tail to be changed to not go over the shoulder--this was the final result

Scorpion Tattoo Part II

2009-12-02T16:17:00.002-06:00

Alrighty, well the person didn't end up liking the first scorpion design so I went with a more "realistic" looking one and I altered the tail a bit. This one they did indeed like

Cardborg?

Scorpion Tattoo

2009-11-13T23:38:00.003-06:00

Someone asked for a tattoo design with a scorpion that'd be on the back with the tail wrapping around the neck , so I came up with a stylized black scorpion that goes at the base of the neck down the back.

T-Shirt Designs Extravaganza!

2009-05-27T19:11:00.007-05:00

Recently I came across a t-shirt design contest online where the theme was all about Star Trek. Naturally I had to enter at least a couple. Here's the ones I entered, with any luck one of 'em will make it to the final round for voting.

First Post of 2009

2009-01-11T14:58:00.005-06:00

Amazing it's already '09, to start the new year off, here are two drawings I did as presents. The first being the USS Montrose, the ship my Dad served on back in the 60's. The second, being my Grandfather.

Hoth Sketch

2008-12-22T19:20:00.002-06:00

It's mighty cold outside so I thought a drawing of Luke on his Taun Taun was appropiate. Did this sketch on my lunch break at work with a pen, took about 25 minutes to do.

Cardboard Sketchin'

2008-11-28T20:43:00.002-06:00

Sometimes at work I do some quick sketches with a sharpie on some cardboard that I'll be tossing out, and every so often, they actually come out pretty decent where I decide to keep 'em. These took about 1-2 minutes to sketch out.

Gal on the Beach

2008-11-09T15:52:00.002-06:00

I wanted to work on a drawing of something I usually don't do, so I thought of doing a landscape. I decided on doing a beach setting, it started to look a little barren so I added the gal looking out into the ocean.

Nevic. Tal Nevic -- Pencils

2008-10-30T18:21:00.001-05:00

It occurred to me that I don't have a drawing of any kind of Tal Nevic on here, the character I created a few years ago which gave me the idea for the name of the blog. Here's the pencils, the inks will get posted once I get 'em done.

The Coming of Thor

2008-10-25T10:26:00.001-05:00

Afro Jesus vs The Zombies Sketch

2008-10-07T14:58:00.002-05:00

You're probably wondering, "What the heck is this?" I was thinking one day what could pass as a bad 70's B-Movie...and this is what I came up with. Who knows, back in the day, this could've hit theaters nationwide.

The Train

2008-05-28T18:38:00.003-05:00

Here's a photo of a comic page I did for my Dad's birthday.

2008-05-15T10:49:00.002-05:00

It's a work in progress. The plan is that it's gonna be a new shirt design. The idea behind the drawing was what if there were robotic soldiers in the U.S. Army back in World War II? Maybe they'd look like this fellow.

T-Shirts For Sale!

2008-05-06T20:07:00.002-05:00

2008-04-27T17:20:00.000-05:00

This was another commission for a t-shirt design, it's supposed to look like a 50's B-Movie poster. Chunk Baby pretty much started off as an inside joke and then was attacking Washington D.C. all in one week...

Prime x2

2008-04-26T23:27:00.000-05:00

These are two Optimus Prime commissions. The first, the person wanted to see the movie version with his huge blade and the second, well what can I say? The gal wanted Optimus playing for the Chicago Cubs

First Post

2008-04-26T11:50:00.000-05:00

This is my new spot on the net to showcase my art work. There will be my comic book work, sketches, commissions, t-shirt designs, etc., etc...

So what does a first post need? Probably a picture or two of my actual work. Here's the latest piece of work that I did. It started off as a simple sketch which turned into a commisioned t-shirt design.
