Just received the pre-press proof of my next book. and it looks like the link to this blog will be put in print.
Not that I expect an increase in traffic to this page, but keeping it up-to-date maybe isn't such a bad idea...
Unfortunately not much to post in terms of comics/animation-related content, so I've decided to share this work in progress.
If you have read some of my provious posts you know I really loved The Wire.
I feel kind of dual in regards to fan art. On one hand I find it a form of masturbation. A way to rub one's self into comforting and familiar feelings.
On the other hand I can't deny that some works greatly inspire our imagination and provide an entrance in to the realm of creativity.
As much as I have outgrown my passion for Star Wars or the superhero genre, I totally understand that some imaginary worlds and its inhabitants are simply too good and full of potential to be left alone.
And anyway, having a shot at portraying our favorite fictional characters is a way to exercise and train our skills, and that's always good.
So, here's a little rough for an upcoming pin-up of LT. DANIELS from David Simon and Ed Burns's The Wire.
I hope to finish this one soon...
to conclude: online you can find a lot of Wire Fan art just by googling. Only a few honorable mentions for the following
Prezbo, Frank, Rhonda and Kima and by Greg Smallwood:
And two nice caartoonish rendition of some characters by Paul Sizer and an unknown artis (respectively)

Plus, soem sketches done using other characters as references (they don't look like much, gotta say)...
