Fanart

Some post Halloween artwork I’ve been working this past month. Two of my favorite villains Reverse-Flash and Makoto Shishio from Ruroni Kenshin. Also here’s Kiki from Kiki’s Delivery Service, which was kinda a request from a fan on Facebook. He actually requested it in early October, but Kiki’s too cute for our rather dark Halloween Draw Off, so I was saving it for afterwards.

I’m trying to start eliminating heavy use of dark shadow as I feel some of my past drawings had a little too much and it was drawing out the ink. So now I”m trying to lighten it and keep the inking more relevant in the finished art.

Reverse Flash

I’ve had an artwork of Eobard Thawne, the Reverse Flash, on my desktop for months. Just kinda sat there unfinished, and I finally decided to do something about it. However this would up being a complete remake rather than a finish. Had a lot of trouble getting the pose so I drew it in my sketchbook at lunch and then inked it at home.

Thawne is kinda a newly discovered villain for me, but he’s quickly become my second favorite DC villain after the Scarecrow. Thawne is such a fascinating character in that he is a stalker of his nemesis Barry Allen, the Flash. Fact is that Thawne is truly motivated purely by trolling Barry’s life and basically causing Barry to seek him. In truth Thawne is a fan boy of his enemy and by doing everything that he does, he gets to spend quality time with his hero, even if it is on the opposite side of his fists. Thus Thawne is a perfect bland of obsession and madness.
