Drawing for fun - VIKING!! pt. I


Been doing warm ups before pages, and worked on this about 5 minutes at a pop all week. This is Bram "The Quiet" from the stunning Images series, VIKING. Written by my pal and regular collaborator Ivan Brandon and drawn/painted/ninja'ed by the amazing Nic Klein.

Haven't worked on it the last two days, but figured I'd share it before I get much further on it so you can see the work in progress.


Best,
Mike

I dig watching your work come to life. Man, when you lay down the ink your work goes from really, really good to badass. Thanks for posting, Mike.

samax - Ha! Yeah, it sucks. If it wasn't for getting comps I wouldn't read a lot of comics me'self.

Thanks, BTW.

Oran - Thanks alot, man. After posting this I caught a mistake that I corrected, and will post about that next time around.

Thanks, Seth. Yeah, I wanted him to look like he's been in a scrap or two....thousand. I wanted that nose to look like it's been broken several times.
