    I’m still searching for journals. I’m looking for my Nemisis from when I was in grade 6. Keep uploading your stuff, it’s been great :)

    These pirates were for a game I was planning, at least a year before Pirates of the Caribbean was released. When the movie came out I ditched the game, was in danger of being ”hip”.

    He’s the leader of the team. I think in this panel he was explaining leadership stuff to his pals.

      You’ve really captured his charisma and authority. It’s maybe a little bit devalued by his tail, because at first glance it looks like a penis. If I was them, I’d probably have chopped my tail off… but maybe it distracted their enemies.

    yep. They had plenty of blood on their hands, literally!

    In reply to - thistler uploaded a new picture: raphael This is a light watercolour drawing that I drew on top of with an artline fine-liner.

      These were the cool turtles, weren’t they? They didn’t eat pizza and say Cowabunga, they listened to Metallica and kicked your ass.

    1993 was a good year for drawing. I think I sketched this while I was at my Nan’s on holiday. I didn’t have a console with me, but I did have a copy of HYPER magazine that I would copy from. There were some screen shots for Street Fighter 2 for SNES and I studied the pixels to create a set of street fighter drawings.

    I was very much addicted to arcade games as a kid. Street Fighter 2 was so awesome. Here’s E. Honda to slap you around. Copied from HYPER magazine review of SF2 for SNES.

    I drew this in 1993, I was about 15 I guess. It’s copied from a 2000AD comic (not traced)

      Oh man, that’s cool. I could even tell it was 2000AD before I read your comment!

    This is an ink sketch I did around about 2004-2005. I was drawing some pictures for my site, http://www.thistler.net, and this guy was going to be on the page somewhere, although he never made it.

    I think it’s time to dig up the Street Fighter 2 inspired pencil drawings! I should probably save the Geiger stuff for another day.

  • thistler uploaded a new picture: space_crater   1 year, 9 months ago · View

    This is something I drew while I was on the train to work. 2 hours sure goes fast when you’re trying to hold a pen steady! This pic was inspired by: http://1000tentacles.com/ but I didn’t make mine quite as good!
