Sketchy dudes

And by Sketchy I mean these are dudes I sketched. 'Cept for the first dude, he looks mighty sketchy.

Filling in the blanks

Yea...
I drew some boxers, a ring girl and a bear boxer. Thinking of setting my boxing comic in an anthropomorphic world. IT WON'T BE A FURRY COMIC!!!! More along the lines of Blacksad.

Anyways, back to Killing Spree". Page 3 is lookin' hella sweet.

Back @ the Park

Drawin' at the park again.

People watching is fun.

Also I'm totally buying "Umbrella Academy" Written by Gerard Way and drawn by Gabriel Ba. It looks crazy good.

More from Ba and his crazy talented twin brother here.
They are both Equally amazing, though I have an affinity towards Ba.

Did these in Phil Jimenez's (name drop)Portfolio class.

Decided to clean and shade them for a portfolio for an animation studio.

Workin up my port-o-folio

Building up a nice portfolio for some open submission stuff for animation companies.

Too bad I have 0 experience in the field. I'm hoping to wow 'em with my art.

Robot cop?

Here he is.

No boxer today. Sorry. I know it breaks your heart, but sometimes, baby, thats the way it is.

I still love you.

-Gabe "My government space-gun is jammed!" Pinto

More Boxers

Two more boxers.

I like drawing them. Alot. Man, this boxing comic I'm gonna work on is so cool (in my head it is at least.)

SO there.

Boxing is Awesome

And so is soccer. I should start drawing soccer players.

Beckham debuts this Saturday. I'll probably watch. I hope it brings up the viewership of soccer in the US. It's such an awesome sport. Second to Boxing of course.

Portfolio

NOT A SELF PORTRAIT!

Read the SEVEN CAMELS BLOG. The latest post is genius. I agree 100% with his thinking. Thats why I enjoy high focus figure drawing so much. Makes me want to go to some life drawing sessions.

Drawin' Comics

What what WHAT?! 2, count 'em, TWO images today.
The first one is another preview of my Killing Spree pages. (I think it looks so cool shrunken down like that.)
The second is another boxer. I was trying to capture the motion of his swing. I might hafta study some boxing videos.

Also, Brick is the shit!

-Gabe "I invited myself" Pinto

Killing Spreeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

Page 4 Pnl 2(well part of it)

Drawing these pages have my thinking about storytelling in manga and how they can tackle various subjects and genres. Why are there no more american comics about sports? romance comics? educational comics? The medium itself is so vast and possible of so much. Why is an in inherently American medium expanding so much everywhere else? I don't have the answers. I just wanna produce a shitload of comics in a variety of formats on a variety of subjects and genres. Here's hopin'.

Kick, Punch It's All In The Mind...

...If you wanna test me I'm sure you'll find,
the things I'll teach ya'
are sure to beat ya'
nevertheless you'll get a lesson from teacher.

I'm gonna draw a boxing comic. You can bet on that.

Drawing From Life

And Ratatouille rocked my face.

Faces

Been reading alot of manga recently. My favorite so far has been Hajime no Ippo, a manga about boxing. I'm not sure exactly what it is about this manga, but it's so engaging. I really start to cheer for the main character. Another thing I really enjoy about this manga is that the main character learns from his mistakes and his prior matches.

I'm gonna draw a boxing comic one day. Hopefully it'll be as good as Ippo.

Killing Spree Page 1 Panel 1

Yup. Killing Spree starts with a BANG!

How does this play into the massive destruction that is Killing Spree?

You'll hafta buy "Killing Spree #1" when it comes out. Published by Jon Sperry Comics.

On a side note, Killing Spree has consumed my life.
