Old Samurai

If you can't tell by now, I like to draw samurais(which will become even more apparent in the coming weeks as a post more sketches up.) There's something about feudal Japan and that culture that I just find cool and fun to draw. I have a creator owned comic book project of mine that I've been working on, but will have to wait to be finished until I can clear out some other projects that have been piling up. In the mean time I hope ya dig this feudal doodle of an old samurai warrior enjoying a smoke.

Belated Holidays

This first sketch was penciled back around Halloween. I kind of like how Dracula turned out looking both creepy and goofy at the same time(not unlike myself I've been told.)
This second illustration I penciled around the winter holidays for my brother who's in college and obsessed with zombies. Originally, I was thinking of having some undead reindeer behind old zombie claus but I figured it would be best to just have the main focus on him. So, I just penciled in some arctic terrain back there.

Pandas and Samurais

I finally decided to get with the times here and get in on this whole "blogging" thing. It should be interesting since the extent of my computer skills are pretty much limited to checking my e-mail (and I still have problems with that some times).

Anywho, for my first post I've got some scribblings I pulled from my sketchbook of what else but of a samurai/bushido looking dude and a panda snacking on some bamboo (because samurais and pandas rule). I'll try and get around to posting a few sketches a week inbetween working on stuff (keyword being "try").

Also, a big thanks to Mr. Bernie Gonzalez for creating the banner thingy (or whatever it's called, I'm not too hip to what those crazy kids are calling things these days) at the top of this page and for helping me set up this blog and creating a gallery page for me. Check out some of Bernie's groovy artwork by clicking on the link at the right side there and you can thank me later (I'll take cans of grape soda and bags of Doritos if you have any).

Later-Marcus
