SW and ST Commissions

I've been fortunate enough, over the last couple of years, to have found a couple of people that have come to me for commissions a semi-regular basis. One of those is Jared, who I met at iMagicon in Minot in a couple of years ago. Jared is a cosplayer and enjoys getting pieces which show him in the costumes he wears. In the last few months he has commissioned me on four different pieces. One of the really interesting things is that they are both Star Wars and Star Trek drawings. In a few of these he also has some of his cosplaying friends included.

It seems that typically fandom chooses one over the other, but I'm glad that he is very open with his admiration for both.

Not-daily, daily sketches

I'm working on getting in the habit of creating warm up sketches and drawings, but I haven't been perfect in this goal. I'm happy with the results so far, though. It is helpful and it means I have somethings to post online regularly as I work on the other projects that aren't able to be posted yet.

The Wolverine drawing I did last week got me on a bit of an X-men kick. Here are a few others that I've finished recently.

Wolverine

The big news in my life is that I - after almost fifteen years - have quit my fire alarm sales job. I'm going to draw full time for as long as I can. Hopefully that will be for the rest of it, but we will see. I'm sure I will post more about that soon, but for now, here is a drawing of Wolverine I did today.

I'm trying to get in the habit of drawing and sketching before I begin the "real" artwork for the day. I will do my best to keep up with it, but I'm sure there will be days were time restraints keep me from following through.
