He tells me he's about to send in a portfolio of new work to Marvel, so you might be seeing more of his work in the future.Paolo Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11088106827920011644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-70570089082801597682010-03-03T13:53:29.344-08:002010-03-03T13:53:29.344-08:00The nightcrawler piece is really awesome.

I had almost mentioned it previously, but I might even lose the shadow all together. We could make a case that it's outside the composition; furthermore, there would be enough ambient light to make it pretty light anyway.<br /><br />And, coincidentally, I drew both Venom AND Carnage today! I've already said too much.<br /><br />Doug, I couldn't agree more.Paolo Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11088106827920011644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-55233817758005029822010-02-26T06:19:13.462-08:002010-02-26T06:19:13.462-08:00That Nightcrawler is amazingly awesome!That Nightcrawler is amazingly awesome!Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622226330548661345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-10173244559016882082010-02-25T21:30:58.492-08:002010-02-25T21:30:58.492-08:00One piece of advice I'd have for this piece wo...One piece of advice I'd have for this piece would be to make the guy's shadow a little more directly under him, or at least make it stand out more (I didn't notice he had a shadow the first time I saw the piece, because it's kinda lurking near the edge.<br /><br />This guy is really talented, and I agree, his nightcrawler is really nice. I absolutely LOVE the Venom cover on his website. (odd coincidence, I just finished coloring a Carnage sketch recently)<br /><br />http://evancthomasart.blogspot.comEvan Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12121748429298559275noreply@blogger.com
