Mornin' all.
Here's this weeks drawing; The Rocketeer. I reckon i'll use this blog as an excuse to draw characters i've never had an opportunity to draw before. Can't say i'm a huge fan of The Rocketeer (i barely remember the movie from when i was a kid and that's about it) but i love the look of the character.
I tried to get really messy with this one, and even used some greywash (ive been meaning to try using more greywash, but don't really have the opportunity to do so in my regular comics work.)
Since i'd literally never drawn the character before, i did some quick sketches to figure out how to draw his helmet. They're included above also.

One of my favourite Dec pictures ever I'd say, stellar work. Plus I really love the headshots, they kind of look like a model sheet for a really nice cartoon version.
That is brilliant Dec. Atmospheric to the max!
Aw thanks guys!
Yeah, i'm pretty happy with it. I like the head-sketches too, in a different way. They look more like my layouts; more immediate, i guess.
Definitely think the messier/looser approach is working for me.

Nice one bud. Feckin hell its been a week already!!
I too love these. Real contender for best Dec pic ever. EVER.
It reminds me of Guy Davis on BPRD. Really atmospheric.
David; i take the Guy Davis comparison as a HUGE compliment, thanks a million.
And thanks also, to all o' ye Micks.
