Thought I'd post some convention art as well as some art for the upcoming Marshal Strong comic book

This one was an "updated" look for Marshal.  I wanted Elvin to do a version somewhat in the style of the comic artist.

I love it all of course.

Mike,

First pencilling on top. Two head shots on the bottom, the one to the right.

Love the "Grimace" of a smile.

why does his mask in the comic look like Batman's symbol?  Cheesy

Gerry:  Yeah, the artist for the comic book changed up his look a little.  I think artists like to put their own stamp on a character rather than just do it exactly as it looked prior.  He also changed the look of the vest.  At first I was a little taken aback, but it has really grown on me, and I think his art looks amazing.

ONI:  Agreed.  Hard to exactly interpret the emotion in that one.  Marshal's an odd dude, so it could mean a lot of things!

I love  "character design sheets".  I'd love to have one for every character I have.  I felt that Elvin really put a lot of effort into it.  So many cool details.

I love it so much I feel a bit guilty about the next adventure.  Without spoiling anything its going to be called, " The Death of Marshal Strong."

  

I am scary, very, very scary.

Isn't it part 2 though? Because he supposedly died in the explosion that sent him back in time

I've always thought it was cool when people take a favorite PC and have them drawn by professional artists.  Having a comic made of the character is even better!  Smiley

Mike,

I am assuming Magnum will be the centerfold pull out?  This way you can see all nine of his glorious FEET in height?   Tongue

I expect royalties.....

Ya, know... you try to have a goal for yourself, just a modest goal of putting out a single comic, ...and all I get is sarcasm.  But to answer your question, yes Paul, there will be a Magnum centerfold pullout, ... and yes, the focus is on his crotch.  The subtitle reads "Magnum: Moose Knuckle Mania!"  Your royalties will be paid by the inch.

And to Majestic and dsumner, thanks!  It's been been really cool, (and quite frustrating at times!)  It's been fun getting more and more into the art of my character.  Also, makes me wish I had pursed writing when I was much younger.  Now, suddenly in my middle age I feel the drive to have a creative outlet.  Better late than never, I guess. 

I also feel very lucky to have gotten to know the artists that have done commissions for me.  They've been so cool and I feel like they really have gone above and beyond.

Wow!?  I just stumbled across this thread...  Nice artwork!  When is the comic being released?  How is it being distributed (ie: how do I get a copy?)

Thanks guys!  The artwork is done and now I'm working with a friend on adding the dialogue and captions etc.  The technical side of this is still a mystery to me.  I'm actually submitting it to a few places, but being as that is kind of a long shot,  it may be published through my friend's independent label.  I'll put all the info up here on the board as we get an idea of when it will be ready to go.

While I'm sure comixology is a long shot, I hope you can get it on sites like Cloud 9 Comix, Drivethru Comics and Indy Planet.
