TINTIN by Ron Salas

Here's my belated Tintin. Trying something different again with this one.
One thing I like about Tintin is that there are instances where you have this cartoonish character in an immersive, fairly realistic background and that's what I kind of tried to do here.
Looking back, I probably should have treated the background a lot more simply and not spent time on all the hatching and such. I just got carried away.

I didn't have time to finish

a proper Tintin drawing this week.

As a placeholder I'm using this drawing

of comic writer Rick Remender.

I'll get the real one in soon!

TINTIN by Nathan Fairbairn

Like my Thing twart, this was just supposed to be a digital rough, but it's suddenly the end of the week, so now it's my final. The idea was to try out Mr. Bretweiser's process of printing out the digital sketch in blueline and then inking it. And I still want to try that. But right now I figure it's probably more important just to get something up so I don't look like a total deadbeat on my own week to pick the theme.

Looking at it now, I see that I've just totally forgotten to draw Snowy in there. Also, it occurs to me that this piece is pretty much exactly the same as my Rocketeer twart.

Fawk.

The coolest Belgian Boy Adventurer around! Also posted below are my original inks and the best Tintin panel ever that nearly made me spit my cereal all over my purty iMac.

TINTIN by Chris Samnee

Sorry I haven't been able to post any art here lately. I've been swamped with deadlines and moving all of our belongings cross country these past few weeks and haven't had any free time to speak of.

We're all settled in to our new home (well, all of our stuff is here at least) and I've got one more book in the can, so hopefully there'll be more sketching in the coming weeks.

Really glad I had the time to contribute a piece this week. I sure do loves me some Tintin :D


Oh, and the pencils for this piece are over on my blog here.

TINTIN by Evan Shaner

The first Tintin story I ever read was Cigars of the Pharoah, so that's what I decided to go with here. I know Captain Haddock wasn't a part of that story in particular but I couldn't pass up the chance to draw him.

I am still in a Al Williamson state of mind, as you can see.
Since Tintin had a cameo in my tribute last week, I thought it was fitting to have an "Al" inspired take on the little guy.
Hope you guys dig it even if it's not the classic or popular rendition of Herge's creation.

Cheers,
Francesco

P.S. I hate putting on the pimp's hat but... today's issue 3 of GARRISON is out in stores: please support (by buying the book and/or promoting it) this creator owned title of mine, I will truly appreciate it :) Thanks!

Al Williamson Tribute by Mitch Breitweiser

His mark was left on all of us, and I'm so proud to be a part of a group of guys that are carrying on the tradition of the 20th century illustration masters.

Best,

AL WILLIAMSON TRIBUTE by tom fowler

some of my fondest childhood memories are stealing the sunday paper from my dad to pour over williamson's star wars strip. i cannot hope to match his ability or facility with brush or quill (especially in the time i'd given myself for this drawing) so i've fallen back on the subject matter that drew me to him in the first place.

NOBODY drew a dude with a gun on a lizard like Al.



***also, please go and take a look at the gorgeous al williamson tribute drawn by my good friend craig taillefer over at his site.

AL WILLIAMSON TRIBUTE by Steve Bryant

I've talked about Al Williamson a lot over the last week. I wrote about meeting him and the impact on my career over at my blog. I pointed out some homages to him in my comic Athena Voltaire. And I was fortunate enough to be asked by John Siuntres to contribute some thoughts about Al's work on the Word Balloon podcast and by Tim O'Shea to talk about Al for the Robot 6 blog at Comic Book Resources.

My favorite of Al's work was his 13-year collaboration with Archie Goodwin on Secret Agent Corrigan because everything that Al loved was eventually thrown into the strip.

I printed the type onto a piece of Bristol board and drew Corrigan onto the board afterward. The tone was created digitally and the jacket pattern, based on a zip-a-tine screen that Al frequently used on Corrigan, was drawn manually then digitally manipulated into a larger repeating pattern. It was also applied digitally. The pencils can be seen at my blog.

Thanks for the work, and everything else, Al.
