Concept art from my new superhero comic 'gods'

Forcefield projector station within first layer of mountain fortress interior. Like this one a lot, but it's going to mean I have to step up my game with the design of the mountain fortress exterior...





Concept sequential pages

nice work reminds me of heavy metal

Thanks spekerol I get the Heavy Metal comparison from a lot from people, but I'm not really all that familiar with it, other than it's an anthology title... last I saw it years ago I thought it was very varied and didn't have one particular look... but it was all pretty rad

Medical droid 'Jeeg' whips across roiling battlefields either patching up the greviously wounded or putting them out of their misery, depending on the severity of their messed-upness (a technical term from, I believe, the BMA). The Hypocratic oath doesn't get much of a look-in when half the dying are likely to Turn (into)...




...lifeless, soul-sucking Gaunts. You may know some of them.











Master sergeant Vansonn 'Vance' Hillbrandt performs the blunt, heavy-duty frontline wetworks that could be termed as mass personnel demolition.

Discovering his own culpability in running security for the horrific false flag operations of his nation's political demagogues, Vance finds himself poised to take his own life, until his protege Kara Flynn evinces he has no business getting off that easy.

Some more early vehicle concepts

Major Cade Cyger character concept (revised from the tan jacket number)



"Wait!! You'll wake the dale guardian!"

Some more sketches, apologies for the lined paper- these were done as sidebars to script notes, prior to figuring they maybe turned out interesting enough for display.


Cade's battleblade is enriched by sorcery, enabling it to be ‘sawmilled’ in the direction of incoming debris or enemy artillery, providing a defensive canopy of whizzing metal.





Odds n' ends

'Actually, I think you'll find this is exactlythe right time for one of my lame parlour tricks.'



Concept sketches and paintings of battlesuit for Gods antagonist 'Nargun'- an incorporeal demon from the planet Aldar's Dark Age. Interesting note about the lined note paper- most of these babies weren't really whipped up for public consumption or intended to be formal concept art, just side scrawls beside my script notes- but hopefully they're interesting enough for those who are big into pre-production stuff.

Hyperion color study

An earlier, cruder drawing and coloring technique here, this sequential precedes the third image in this thread.

Final design and four prelim roughs for the 'Jackal' tank bikes that will feature in the second part of the Gods British comic book trilogy.

These all-terrain attack vehicles feature two elongated tilting treads that sprout climbing crampons, enabling their riders to storm even the sheer cliffs of the titan enemy mountain 'Ryzar'.

Cheers dude!

More mechs here. The Battlelords- fanatical disciples of the mountain fortress lord Ryzar - have at their disposal a league of flying and ambulatory attack vehicles with which to rout the almost completely unprepared populations of the planet Aldar and the wider Gods cosmos...



"You hear somethin?"

You do all of the art and the graphics work? Looks good man. I had to buy photoshop for a business venture and ended up playing around with it with some of my art.....now all I want to do is draw and upload it to photoshop haha

Cool, RJ. For me, there are other things that are more enjoyable than drawing... but not many.


Battlelord 'Straaken'.

Remember when you saw the trailer for the Spielberg 'War of the Worlds' and caught a glimpse of the tripod pilot aliens, and thought they were gonna look frightening and cool?

When I finally got round to doing a rendition of what I thought I saw, this was the result: still nothing like what I thought I saw.

But I kind of like him anyway.

"Hell's he looking at us like that?"
"Ain't me he's looking at... sorry, Dyler- you're on your own!"

"Weather permitting, how 'bout we nuke 'em the frag off the face of the Earth?"

Top tenth of the twenty-kilometer tall mountain fortress exterior of the great dark god Ryzar. The charge bolts of the summit's towergun have a range far beyond the cannon's already extensive visual range, winning the weapon little popularity with Ryzar's scattered opponents.

"Mag bombs ineffective- it's cycling up! Where's our freaking evac? Stiers!! You patching me through to Dust-Off on that comm or making love to it?"
