GSP by Nathan Fairbairn

Alright, dammit. I've never seen this guy fight but I hear he's pretty good. Some promoter made the news here in Canada by claiming he's more famous than Gretzky, which is pretty much sacrilege. But he seems like a decent guy. So I drew him.



EDIT:

Added some watercolor paint to the thing.

FEDOR by Urbanbarbarian

First of all... Thank you Dave for this week's theme! MMA and Comic Books? Is there anything else worth living for? [ the second illustration was done for Fighter's Only magazine featuring Dana White and Fedor ]

Nick Diaz by Rev. Dave Johnson

Well, this week was my pick and it just so happened that I'm the first one to post something. Hell, I half picked the subject to get Panosian all excited and figured he'd be the first one outta the gate.

So the MMA fighter I picked is Nick Diaz. He got a face only a pulp artist could love. I mean seriously, even when Nick is happy he still looks like he could kill you at any moment. And he's one of the no. 1 fighters out there today. So it seemed only natural to make him a pulp novel character. I drew the line art while in Savannah using my iPhone to pull reference, and colored it tonight. It was pure fun, and because of work and upcoming travel it might be a while before I can do another Twart I wanted to make it a good one.

Enjoy the manliness.
