Ogre

Here is Joe's ogre. Learned alot.

Thanks Adam...sorry Joe...

JOgre? Or TrOlson?

I like JOgre.
Forgot to post this one a week or so ago...
Fun! Such awesome entries on this topic!

Mobgoblin

ogre

I think she's pretty

So I didn't take hours to color her in. Shut up.

Ogre

Done with it, whether it's done or not.

Mac Ruadhraidh

Son of the red-haired one.

Technological Nightmare

There is nothing quite more terrifying than a great white shark, except for one that can fly and has a freaking laser beam attached to his head. This was my idea for a war machine. Half the battle is psychological.

Everybody's a winner!

Somehow I wasn't fully pleased with my first attempt, so I went back to adjust some things. I am more happy with this one. After a long hard battle the highlander defeats the troll and poses for a photo in the evening sunset.

Joe's Highlander

Eh.....not sure how I feel about this one. Joe's drawing is really cool and I think I may have just ruined it.

Olson's Troll

Here's my attempt at coloring Joe's troll-thingee. He'd like to inform you it's clobbering time.

Coolest T-Shirt Ever

Thanks for the t-shirt, Joe! (This joke works better if you know it's a self portrait. Actually, I think that makes the joke on me.)

Couldn't find my Crayons

Had some downtime yesterday and decided if I didn't get my paint up first I'd probably have to post in shame after Sam or Adam ...

Anyways, first post on the blog!
This was a ton of fun, thanks Joe!

New Topic (Finally): JOE'S COLORING BOOK

Sorry for letting this one sit so long. Since everyone seems to be busy these days, we're going to do a simpler one by letting Joe Olson do the designing for us. Here are two images, either paint them up or do your own take on them in another way if you like.

A Thundercat is Kinda Like a War Machine

Jasper, the One Man Band

If you could hear his horrible falsetto, the squeaking of his violin, and his out of tune trumpet, you would believe me when I say that Jasper is indeed a war machine.

Goldbergian Machine of War

Here's my first entry to the art blog. Maybe someone out there would like to put together a working prototype? I know where you can get a monkey.
(With apologies to Rube Goldberg.)

War Walker

Someone's got to post something for this topic, guess it's going to be me.

Butt Head

Here is my very late 40's Dick Tracey "Mob Boss". I wanted to give him a cigarette butt shaped head but it looks like a Pringles can.

1920s Gangster - color version

This wasn't exactly what I had planned for the color version of this, but it's what I ended up with. Now I can go back to being lazy until I post again in 6 months or so.

New Topic: MACHINE OF WAR

I was going to call this topic "War Machine," but as Joe Olson pointed out, most people would think of the Marvel Character of the same name.

I guess it's okay if you really want to do an homage, but I'm personally going to let my creative gears turn out something new.

Unfinished gangster

I was going to do color on this, Ryan Wood style, but apparently that's harder than Ryan makes it look.
Most people have already seen this on my own blog, but I'll post it for the record anyway.

Kingpin - 1920s Gangster

I intend to do a color version of this guy, but I wanted to work on a drawing for a background I had in mind first. So until then, I'll just post this drawing that I did to try to figure out just how I wanted him to look. I have a few things I'll probably change once it goes to color but not too much different than this.

Bootleg Phil

Gangster

Edit: here is a new version of that picture. I changed the shadow, the tommy gun and the left hand. Thanks to Reed Hawker, Adam Ford, Dave Malan and David Bybee for the feedback!

Gorilla Gangsta

Bernie "Lips" Cahoon meets his maker, and a young carp

Edit: Changed the water, based on Dave's reaction. Better, or not?

Snow Queen with Cuddles

Late entry. Snow Queen with a warm, loving bear.

Tiny AKA "Tony the fish"

Happy Valentine's Day from Chicago, 1929

New Topic: 1920's GANGSTER

Old-school, film-noir, Dick Tracy gangsters.

Sans snowflake crown

The snowflake crown has been so overdone. I don't know the Snow Queen story, but I imagine it is something similar to the matchstick girl story. This is her frozen in the morning with no more matches.

Cate the Snow Queen Ice Princess thingy

So, I always thought Cate Blanchette would make a good snow queen-type lady. Not to say she'd look better with a greenish purple hue and grey/purple hair. . . I'm just saying. I'm sick of drawing freaking snowflakes. I'm just saying that too.

Ok. Shut up Casey.

Puffy Shoulders

I'll have you know I started this before Kevin, so any resemblance to his color scheme or crown is purely coincidental. Either that or he stole them from me.

Or, possibly, a crown that looks like a snowflake isn't such an original idea after all.

The Queen of Snow

Take that Woodfolk!

My "Man Dominating Beast" trilogy is complete.

...late again

Snow pixie herder for the woodland folk challenge that ended a bit ago.
