This was done for the souvenir artbook for the Calgary Expo. The show is going to be amazing this year! I can't wait!

Nice! But why is he holding a cup of orange juice?

I also saw in the back of January's Wildstorm books in The Stormfront column Jim Lee gives Hawksmoor an honorable mention for best Wildstorm book of 2008. Nice X2!

That looks great!

EFF said...

Keef- it's... carrot juice... for his eyes? Because... guns... blah!

Haha, thanks, Mike Costa and I were extremely pleased about that Stormfront bit!

Caleb- thanks, it's my first attempt with the miracle quick-dry oils.

Awesome, How did you like the quick dry?

Painting looks great.

Christopher said...

Very nice, I really like the texture of it.

EFF said...

Dan- thanks, I like the quick dry paints a lot... I never bothered with stuff like glazing before, just worked wet-on-wet, but now I'm a little closer to painting properly. Just a little.

Chris- thanks! It scanned a bit weird because of the varnish but I don't really mind.
