The MOC Challenge

Superhawke's Chapter



Since before the MOC Challenge started back in June or something, Dangerman asked me to do the art for his chapter. Following his page layouts these are the sketches that I came up with. I'll be doing the inking but the colors will be applied by someone else (don't know who)

Since this is a blog let me rant a little about what happened to my work on page 2. Originally I did the page you see here which is pretty close (the closest of all 4 pages) to Dangerman's layout. His layout pages were meant to be a guide as he did not defined anything in particular leaving me the option to play around with the camera but keeping in mind the script he had already set for them. So after the basic layout was done I felt that the first last two panels (the one with the eye and the other with the enemy) could be merged into one and at the same time give a little intro to the first panel of page 3. So the changes were made on that part of the page, the second panel was moved to the upper side and the first panel was changed as well. Camera view on the first panel was near the fallen's head and you could see both heroes from there to set the distance between them. Unfortunately I made a terrible mistake when saving. I was working with multiple programs, SAI was the one I was using for drawing and Open Canvas for some retouching and saving. For some reason the save on SAI got corrupted and it wouldn't open on OC, normally it wouldn't be so bad but I had closed SAI so I lost over 40 mins of work. I still miss the way that page looked but I couldn't bring myself to do it again so it stays like what you see now. Hope that it is good enough.

Rant over.

For Reference

Mike "nickleboy" Brooks once shared this little insight at how comic production is divided and of course paid, to avoid getting ripped off. More often than not I forget where the hell did I save that image so now to make things easier (unless this post gets deleted over time) I have it here on my blog.

While looking for the image I found what seems to be a skin color guide based on ethnicity. I can't remember where I got it (more than likely an image board) so thanks to whomever did it and sorry I couldn't give the right credit.

AGU Cards SET 2

THE PROTECTORS

This is probably the only set that will have a continuity between cards. The reason is I don't know if they will look like they should when printed. Red dots are the safety zones and green dots are the trim lines so technically it should end up close to what we want.

Characters from left to right:

1. Aurora Star
2. Aqua Neptuna
3. Superhawke
4. Cleopatra
5. Power Pirate


All of those characters are created and copyrighted by Ronaldo "Dangerman" Martinez.

AGU Cards SET 1

This is the first set of sketches for the card set that I'm working on for the Anything Goes Universe Project. The final set will be full color and probably available through Ebay but I won't be the one selling them so I can't confirm it until the card set is done.

Top row from left to right:

1. Power Pirate
2. Spyshell
3. Wonder Cop

Bottom row from left to right:

1. Super Ninja Nancy
2. Redd Blodd
3. Cleopatra

Random Sketch 1

Just a quick sketch to keep the muscles going through the week. ;)
Since I now have to work during the week I have to get up early and I'm hardly a morning person. Even though my job is good and comfortable when I get home I'm tired and sleepy but I can't sleep during the day so I'm pretty much in zombie mode until I head to bed. That's why I have to do these random sketches, so that I can still practice.

Star Army Cards

For my first post here I decided to add a few of the Star Army Cards I've done:

These aren't official, just a personal test of how they could look like. They are done for people that pay a bonus for their commissions.
I'm going to be working on the Anything Goes Universe Cards really soon so I'll be posting sketches of those cards here. The cards will feature the female characters created by Dangerman.
