These pages got stained somehow.

Black and White Nam coveer

Image
Here is the black and white original for Nam issue 22.
Notice the rubber cement residue at the top.
I peeled off the logo so you could see what was under it.

Buscema pencils My inks

Image
Here's a splash page I inked over Buscema.
I remember every time I got a job of John's to ink I would just stare at his pencils which were very simple but beautiful and perfect and think how I was going to attempt to do them justice. Again less is more.
One of the two times I actually met JB he said "Oh you're that kid that inks like Sal"
I was blown away by this because somebody told me that John's fave inker was his brother Sal so I tried to ink like Sal.

Buscema pencils My inks

ImageThis is pretty typical page that I inked over Mr. B.
I found that keeping things simple worked better than burying his art under a bunch of rendering and left room for color.
I used blacks in the foreground to create depth.
Note how well he laid out his pages.

Unfinished Conan pencils

ImageThis is one page from an issue of Conan that I was penciling that I never finished.
I't's yellowed with age but it's kinda funny if you read the little dialogue notes.

Conan the Destroyer

Image
This is a cover I did for the Conan the Destroyer movie adaptation. Whenever there was a movie adaptation I got work on them because I could do a likeness.
Arnie was fun to draw.

This is a page from comic short I did with Larry Hama. It's Wally Wood meets the Road Warrrior.
