The Graphic Path presents the first three pages of The Nebula Project, a comic book by Ghen Martin. Needless to say, but just in case, here comes the disclaimer:
This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents are either products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events, locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
And the pencils:
To be continued…
After several weeks without saying hello we are back to try to keep up with the cartoons, doodles and whatever else we feel is suitable for the website. And I think a good way of saying “here we are again” is by bringing back “Cosmo, the Space dog”.
This one is my first in a series of drawings based on my favorite film genre, Westerns. And I couldn’t help starting with this portrait of Robert Redford and Paul Newman, inspired by a black-and-white still from “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”, a film directed by George Roy Hill in 1969.
One of the best advices to kids, and to everyone: “enjoy reading”. This is the second cartoon in Little Annie’s series, and once again I took an old drawing out of the drawer and gave some color to it.
Back to Jack Kirby’s style, I wanted to try something about baseball. This is it!
With love and all due respect to the memory of Mr. Stanley Kubrick and “2001: A Space Odyssey”.
Walter Bishop, one of the best characters TV shows have brought to us. And this is how I see him, first in a series of portraits I will dedicate to Fringe.
I created this character eleven years ago as a way of showing up my drawings to my girlfriend. I thought of the little girl I saw in some pictures from her childhood, and the image that came to me was Little Annie. What it comes now is the first in a series of cartoons I drew at that time when I was doing other things.
OK, OK this is the incorrect quotation from the climactic confrontation between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader in “The Empire Strikes Back”. All those who enjoyed the movie know well that the correct lines are these:
But when we quote the wrong line we give ourselves a license to get maybe the most famous spoiler of all time, and that way everybody understands what we are talking about,… Aren’t we?. With all due respect, Mr. Lucas.
As the new movie has been released I’ve been working for a while on a poster for the movie, as part of my daily sketchbook, or I should say as part of my Captain America celebration through my doodles. Well, I’m almost there… only with the pencils up to this point… By the way, I enjoyed the movie,… it wasn’t the easiest Marvel character to make an adaptation to the big screen, I think, and they’ve got it. For me, possibly one of the best adaptations of a superhero to the movies.
One of the first comic book pictures I can recall with particular strength in my mind is this: Captain America falling into a deep hole after fighting one of his enemies. That’s a good reason to try a new drawing of the human figure in the Captain series.
This is another study, of my favorite Jack Kirby hero portrait. I particularly enjoyed drawing Steve’s haircut.
This is another one in the series of Captain America. The coming date of the 4th of July gave me the idea of looking at Jim Steranko’s unmistakable style and produce something with a head of text in bold. Well, this is the result as the 4th of July has gone by.
Here I’m beginning a sketchbook dedicated to Jack Kirby’s style. I simply love Jack Kirby’s way of drawing superheroes, and, for me, it’s a way of discovering my own style…
This drawing is referenced from an old picture of the classic Underwood typewriter and it is part of a job I’ve been working for some time now.
This baby girl is a character I’ve been drawing for a while, just for fun and also as a lovely way (I think) of making sticky note pictures to my girlfriend. I gave it some colors and that’s the way it shows.
