I’ve been reading Robert E. Howard’s original Conan stories on my Kindle. I thought I might draw a picture of Conan.
edit: Yow, that first image I uploaded was way too small, replaced it with a bigger one.

A sample I did for a job I didn’t get. Might as well put it here!

What’s a man to a king
What’s a king to a god

ho ho ho

What are they running from? I dunno.
I’m trying to teach myself to treat these characters as three-dimensional objects instead of relying on habit to draw them. Also Jonny’s shorts might be just a little too short.

I keep seeing this going around. Let’s review:
Language changes, context matters, and photoshop is a thing.

RE: the logo ideas I posted about earlier. I have this logo as well, which focuses on Jonny’s face as the icon. My hat is super linty, I’ve been wearing it a lot. I had this made as a test. If I manage to start doing more cons, I hope to have some of these to sell at some point.

Playing some more with that drawing from the other day, trying to simplify for a logo image. I was initially thinking it would look cool with the white parts clear but everything else in shadow, but it’s way too busy. I’m not sure if I like the version with chest/arm/shoes in white or the complete silhouette better. I’m leaning toward the silhouette. It reads as unique without being too busy.
