Lo Rez

More MS paint drawings.
Remind me never to save as JPG from paint.
Its Craptacular.

-Gabe "Time to clean house" Pinto

Ms. Paint Returns

Read into this whatever you want.
I know what it means.
And you don't.
So there.

-Gabe "Thunder Lizard" Pinto

Watch Me Draw 2: Draw Harder

Watch me do my thing.

I've had this line stuck in my head for the last couple of days.

More chubby Wonder Women

BBWW from the last couple of days. Something called Christmas got in the way of me posting these.

-Gabe "The medicine tastes great." Pinto

Hulk + BBWW

A Hulk illustration I decided to stop working on.
And some fat Wonder Woman sketches for a piece i plan on working on once i finish up my other piece.

-Gabe "Give me candy" Pinto

WIP

Started working on one of the sketches yesterday. This is the color mock up of the piece so far.

Also, Lupe Fiasco's The Cool is pretty awesome I must say. Better than Food & Liquor? Only time will tell.

-Gabe "Hip-Hop Saved My Life" Pinto

Womens

Some Bond-esque women. I very much enjoy the one with the guns. The other is the start to a personal piece I'm working on for portfolio reasons.

-Gabe "Little Weapon" Pinto

Monkeys, Hulks and Heads

Sketches from the last couple of days.
1- Rex Mantooth Sketches.
2- Hulk sketches
3- Mostly Drek Tommler designs + a superman head.

-Gabe "I step in Hog Heaven" Pinto

Back to sketchin'

I'm starting to wonder if doing a sketch a day for this blog is better or worse than changing the format to a finished illustration every 2-3 days. The problem with the latter idea is the high possibility of falling off schedule.

Something to ponder.

-Gabe "The Grouch" Pinto

#99 & #100 DONE!

#100 Anna#99 Svea
That's it. Back to regular sketching. It was fun. I really wish I finished on a stronger drawing.

-Gabe "The Cool" Pinto

#91 & #92

#92 Iveta#91 Addison

#90 Ariel #89 Veronica
Only 10 more. Get em while they're hot.

In other news, Hajime no Ippo (i.e. the boxing manga I've been reading for the past couple of months) is amazing. The last couple of chapters dealt with Ippo finally facing Sendou for the japanese title belt. What a fantastically drawn and scripted fight.

For Serious.

Apparently Raekwon & Ghostface dislike the new Wu Tang Album. Mostly due to RZA's production. Ghostface went so far as to call it "wack".

My opinion will be formed later when I listen to it in it's entirety.

-Gabe "More heads for the severing" Pinto
