Jedi Clone Lightyear Cosplay


This is a pen and ink drawing of my son when we went to Free Comic book Day at Brave New World Comics in Newhall.  I was really happy with a lot of the fabric texture, but it is really difficult to get the "feel" of the fabric with pen and ink.  I would love to heard what you think of it.

Cad Bane - Watercolor and Ink


I really like drawing Cad Bane.  I am having a real good time with the watercolors too.  I can't say I am getting them to do what I want, more like I am doing stuff and seeing what I end up with.  Anyway.  Today's watercolor experiment with ink.  Comments are always welcome.

Boba Fett - Work In Progress

I am doing a cool new Boba Fett piece, I am really loving it.  It is based on reference from the Ken the "ElvisTrooper".  That guys takes some seriously great pictures.  I would love to color this, but my color skills are basic at best. 
I would love to find someone that could color this for me.  If you know anyone that might be interested, please contact me  ccthorne@socal.rr.com

The Rocketeer

 This is a piece I have been working on, on and off, for a while and it has been finished for a while too, I have just been too lazy to scan and post.  I wanted to to an ink piece for Dave Steven's, the Rocketeer for a while, I think it just lens itself to a older look.  The reference photo came from a cosplay photographer I found on Flickr named  djwudi/Michael Hanscom, I think this guy is a really good photographer.  I need to work on developing some backgrounds...  LOL
