Elizabeth - Pen

Since I've begun inking over scanned and blue printed pencil work, a couple months back, I've been playing around experimenting different solutions for the same images. In this piece I've inked the Elizabeth sketch, a couple posts back, using only a .3 tech pen.

Van Halen Fan

I think all that SIP (Strangers in Paradise) reading has left me with some side effects. I can detect some Terry Moore's influences in a few lines.

Elizabeth

I've been in weird mood lately and decided to listen to some music clips on youtube. By chance, I've found a band that inspired me to sketch again: halestorm. This is the first of a few sketches I'm doing of the band.

Vincent's parents

The couple in this sketch are the parents of the baby boy I drew a couple months back, Vincent. David was my boss at LACTEC and I'm looking forward to be able to work with him again.

Amber - Hooded angel

Last week tombs sent me an early birthday present: a few pictures of Amber. I took the opportunity to make another sketch of her.

Amber watercolor

I've never been good, or even badly competent, in painting, but from time to time I still try some experiments. These one I tried to do when Amber was born, a few years ago. Never actually posted before 'cause my old, trusty, HP SCSI scanjet 4C broke down and I did not have a decent scanner. That and the fact that I suck at painting.

Watercolor on an A4 watercolor paper.

Pencil Sketch - Bill Adama

These one has been laying around the floor for the past few years. Since I've got no intention of ever finishing I declared it done and I'm posting it the way it is, as crude and uninteresting as it is.

Forest Whitaker - Criminal Minds

I've actually never watched the show, since I no longer have cable TV, but after finding out Forest Whitaker would star in the Criminal Minds spin-off I just had to google and find some good ref pics.

It is still a work in progress...

Another one of Nei

I just could not resist doing a whole bunch of sketches after I saw Nei Ruffino's stock photos. Here goes another one.

F

This one was lost in a pile somewhere in my apartment. I found it in a time in which the subject was a source of sorrow to me but I just had to ink it.

Vincent

Every time I went for coffee the picture of Vincent, my boss's son, was there, staring at me. It was just David's wallpaper but it bugged me enough so that I did this sketch. I hope the boss likes it.

The Schreibers

Patriarca.. again

Have been too tired to have a decent grip on the brush. I've aged her a couple of decades but at least it is done - or I just gave up on it... just can't decide which..

Patriarca set's the pace for the coworkers series

I've stated working at a great commpany a couple months back. The only problem is that I've being working around the clock, did not having enough time for pretending to be a social person.

So, at dawn instead of sleeping I, began making sketches of few coworkers in a really weak attempt not to loose my sanity only thinking only about syntax, semantics, business logic and relational integrity.

To begin the series I chose Aline Correa Patriarca - I hope I got her name right.

Inking exercises - Inking the masters

I wasn't being very productive at programming lately so I decided to ink something. As I had nothing penciled I just grabbed a few sketches from Scott McDaniel and George Perez.

Zatana. George Perez. Inked as he would do it: with a 0.2 technical pen.



Green Arrow. Scott McDaniel. Condor #4 brush.



Nightwing. Scott McDaniel. Condor #4 brush.



Guy Gardner. Scott McDaniel. Condor #4 brush.

Melvin Frohike - experimenting with ink washes

As I was trying to take my head of programming for a short while I decided to draw a sketch of one of my favorite X-Files characters, Melvin Frohike, and experiment with some ink washes. As it turns out, layout paper is not that good for ink washes :'(

Ellen Page - Ganço's commission

My good friend ganço asked me to draw this picture of Ellen Page. It still a work in progress. I hope he likes it.

V Crow quill

As the pincils of this skech were not as good I was expecting I decided to experiment with my good, old, crow quill. Promise to myself: I'll learn how to use it properly..

Vanesa

This is a piece I promised a good friend some seven years ago.

Telematic Society #0 - Cover Sketch

While waiting for a painted cover for Telematic Society #0 I've done this sketch. It is a montage of the main characters of the first story arc: Isabela, Ormilo and the Mayor.
