Card Sets and a question for you guys!

Tue Sep 15, 2009, 10:59 AM


Yes, I am still working on the Spiderman Archives set. I am having fun working on them! It's giving me a chance to experiment with a more comic style of drawing. I'm using multiliners, Copics, and white gel pens (highlights) for all the cards. And it's also giving me a chance to break away from using references for a bit.

BUT, I'm not feeling "at home". I really love doing realism pieces. Portraits especially. And I would really love the chance to show what I can do with the colored pencils more. Once I finished with the Spidey cards, and also my commissions, I was going to start on a couple larger color portrait pieces. Probably pulling from the cast of Heroes (YES! I am HOOKED!).

I'm having fun playing with the Copics, A LOT!! But I want to work with the pencils again, and do more realism.

Ok. Got to get back to work. Inking Ironman and Captain America now. They're calling me back again. LOL! "Jen! We're being ignored here!!"


EDIT: Which style would you guys prefer to see from me? Would you prefer to see me work on developing a comic looking style, doing more inking, and marker work? Or would you prefer that I continue to develop my realism, possibly using markers as well as the Prismacolor pencils?

Just wanted to let you know that wendilynn (one of the makeup artists from Heroes) is featuring your art on her twitter account and spreading the love for you. Don't worry, she's giving you credit. Thought you'd like to hear the praise for your art from someone on the Heroes staff :D

I know. :D I'm following her and she's been DMing me about it. Last she told me was that she showed Zach and Milo my work and that they were impressed. No complaints here!! :D Made my day!!

Ray Park (Edgar season 4) has already seen my work as well. In fact, he's got the color Bruce Lee sketch card. :D

You have no idea how much it shocked me that she did that though. I am extremely grateful!

Thanks for the heads up though! :D Much appreciated!!
