Happy Birthday, Roy Batty!

Today is the day that Nexus 6 combat model Roy Batty comes to "life".

Come to think of it, he was a bit batty, but he was all Roy!

Chūbu Printing akahon "Carefree Journey"

Welcome back to my blog! Chances are it’s only your first or second time to visit and how could I blame you? This blog has been all over the place since I first started it way back when.

It's Deadpool because I recently started reading Deadpool MAX (almost wrote DP MAX, but that would be oh so wrong) and I really liked it. Kyle Baker is so awesome and he's the reason I bought it. This is the smaller piece I did yesterday that inspired the bigger one. I won't be doing the big drawings every day, but whenever I want to explore new stuff or try new techniques I'll use the bigger book to do so. The challenge for this particular piece was doing all the scarring. The texture overwhelmed the costume tatters as I was afraid it would, but I'm still not unhappy with the results. I'd be happy to ...
