DEADPOOL #44

Deadpool #44.  Cover by Dave Johnson.

Pencils by Carlo Barberi and Inks by Walden Wong.

Panel 2 above took some time to complete... the panel with the emergency stairs.  But that was okay.  Because panel 1 made up for it by being the quickest.  All it had was the words "Dr. Ella Whitby" that I inked over Carlo's pencils.  Humm... I wonder if that's considered lettering.  :)

Explosion with broken glass above.  And below, is a nice splash page where Deadpool opens up a fridge to get a snack.  

 Colors by Jorge Gonzalez.

DEADPOOL #43

Deadpool #43 is out in stores.  Cover by Dave Johnson.

Pencils by Carlo Barberi and inks by Walden Wong.

I used templates to ink all the cars.  Took quite some time to complete.  It's something I like to do to make the cars looks mechanical. 

More template work, brushes, and pens.  Hardest part was inking that big round  propeller precisely on the aircraft... No template for that, so I used a flex curve where I'll bend it to the right shape.

I could have stat some of the background on this page because they were the same in panel  1, 2 & 3.  But that would be more work in Photoshop to put them all together.  Inked it the old fashion way, where everything is hand inked.

Index Card 2

Not quite index cards.  But I'm still calling it "Index Card" just to keep the free sketch stuff in the same category.  It was one of those free sketch request I get every now and then.  Click here to see my first post about these free sketches. 

These were sent all the way back to Belgium.  Originally, I was sent the two comic books (The Spirit and The New Warriors) along with some blank paper.  The Spirit trade paperback was sorta cool because it was published in a foreign language.  The New Warrior comic was all English.  There was also letter asking for a Hercules sketch.  There were five pieces of blank paper.  So I decided I may as well sketch other stuff on them.  Also did a sketch of Spider-Man, The Spirit and Batman.

Now the other drawing was something I did at the spur of the moment.  I had one extra blank piece of paper and didn't know what else to draw.  I wanted to sketch on all five papers since they came all the way from Belgium and going back.  I thought to myself, what characters are out there that everybody knows of?  Then I looked over to the left and I saw my daughters big bucket of crayons.  I saw all those colors, tips of the crayon and they reminded me of a Pac-Man maze.  You know... the power pellets and the bright dots.  Then I said "I'm drawing Pac Man!  Wouldn't that be funny when they get it back and see this!"  And that's exactly what I did.  After I drew the four monsters, I then drew the fourth monster being gobbled up my Pac Man!   Then colored them with y daughters crayons.

Wonka-Wonka!

Emma Frost Commission piece over Arthur Adams

Another commission piece over Arthur Adam's hand drawn blue pencils.  On the left is the original pencils sent to me.  On the right, my inks on top of it.  Emma Frost aka White Queen.

Captain Cold

Here's a Captain Cold piece where I inked over Kerry Gammill's pencils for DC Comics.  It was to be used to make a T-Shirt for the DC Originals line of clothing.  Not sure if the T-Shirt was ever made.  If anyone sees one, let me know.

Flashpoint pins

DC Comics sent me a bag of Flashpoint pins.  From what the letter says, everyone who helped out with Flashpoint was sent a complete set of 16 Flashpoint pens which were available exclusively to retailers.  A small token of their gratitude.  What a nice gesture.  In case you're wondering, underneath the bags of pin is just the back of that DC letter.  Even the paper that this letter is printed on is cool,  There are characters on the back of it.

Anyways... I took all the pins and pinned them on the holiday gift DC Comics sent to freelancers last year.  The messenger bag with the DC logo on it.  I thought I blogged about the messenger bag when I got it last year, but it must have slipped my mind.  In any case, here it is now... all decked out with Flashpoint pins.

FLASHPOINT: LOIS LANE AND THE RESISTANCE #3 (OF 3)

Comps for Flashpoint: Lois Lane and the Resistance #3 where I've inked over Christian Duce's pencils.

 When I first got pages to work on, I was surprised to see Grifter from the WildCATS.  Which is an indication that characters from the Wildstorm Universe is moving into the DC Universe.

My favorite part about working on this issue was being able to ink Grifter.  First time working on the character.

 Below is the first page splash...

 With colors by Hi-Fi.

DEADPOOL #42

Here's the cover to Deadpool #42.

Cover art: Dave Johnson

My name is spelled incorrectly in this issue.  "WaldOn" with an 'o' instead of the correct way,  Walden with an 'e'.  I don't get how that happens.  My name was mispelled in issue #40, then it was correctly spelled in issue #41.  Now it's back to the same mispelling in #42.  The credit page must have been manually adjusted as each comic goes into publication.

Now onto the inks where I've inked over the talented Carlo Barberi.

Round 3, fight!!!  Nah... that number 3 just represents the cell number in the story.

I like the sparks effect that's coming out of Deadpool's head in panel 1.  Reminds me of how Arthur Adams draws his sparks.

 Now on to another page, from Pencils, to inks, to colors and letters....

Pencils: Carlo Barberi.

Inks: Walden Wong

Colors: Ferran Daniel
