Travis Bickle and Crows Have What in Common?
Well, nothing, really. Except, perhaps, that I drew them both and am making a post about it. It’s a two-fer Tuesday!
I’d wanted to make a tee out of the above image for quite a while. The opportunity presented itself when I was contacted by Shirt.Woot to offer some designs. I used to partcipate in the Woot community Photoshop challenges back in the day. I know and like how Woot conduct business. It seemed a no brainer, really, to start with my Murder in Roost image. I updated the colors on it and redid a lot of the inking. It’s more consistent with my current skill level and style and I couldn’t be happier to see it for sale.
You can get your hands on it at Shirt.Woot.com.
The second image I’m posting today is one that I seem to redraw annually. I really am a tad obsessed with the obsessed, modern-day ferryman of the river Styx, Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver. It’s become a yearly rite of passage for me to redraw this image, charting my progress on likeness, my color work, and my ability with line. With that in mind, here’s the current image:

It would be interesting to see the gradual changes to Travis. He looks pretty happy here. :D

I am exporting a lot of images to update my portfolio. If I come across the old one, I will post it!

Hi there just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading correctly. I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different browsers and both show the same outcome.

If clicked through, they show on Flickr. Permissions on a few of my sets on Flickr changed resulting in a change of the URLs. I’d have to go back and relink every photo here from before that change and that’s not going to happen, unfortunately.
