Uncanny X-Men #520 Final Cover Art
So here's the final colors for Uncanny X-Men #520 which Greg Land drew the interiors for (Greg did the cover for my issue, #519, and so in return, I drew the cover for his issue). I also did the cover for the March issue, Uncanny X-Men #522, alas, I'm not drawing the story. I return to the interiors with the April issue, Uncanny #523, which is part of the "Second Coming" crossover.Monday, December 21, 2009
For Terry Dodson/Star Wars Fans
Dark Horse Comics has just released a new collection of "Star Wars The Thrawn Trilogy" which features all 3 miniseries (a total of 420 pages) with the first volume featuring the art of Olivier Vatine and Fred Blanchard, the 3rd volume the late great Edvin Biukovic and the middle volume with art by me and Kevin Nowlan and under theepic covers of Mathieu Lauffrey. I'm a life long Star Wars fan and I took a year off from Marvel Comics for the chance to draw this miniseries. It was a really labor of love for me and I was very happy with how with how it turned out.Friday, December 18, 2009

Uncanny X-Men #514 page 9 Step by Step



This is a pretty straightforward talking page with the focus on Cyclops and Pixie - the trick was creating a page showing all the numerous X-Men and not spending forever drawing them all - as we only needed to know that they were in the scene not the focus.Tuesday, November 3, 2009
Uncanny X-Men #514 page 2 Step by Step




OK, so here is the Matt Fraction page description and my little thumbnail sketch of the page. I had a pretty good idea of what this page would look like based on the description and so stuck pretty close to my initial sketch.

Uncanny X-Men #520 Cover - Inks

Uncanny X-Men #520 Cover - Pencils
So here's the pencil version of the cover. It was drawn on 13 x 19" 3 ply Strathmore Bristol Board with a Prismacolor Col-Erase Light Blue Pencil and a Staedtler HB Lead Holder. After this was scanned, I redrew Wolverine's face (as it seemed too small) and added a more detail in the background (to give you more of the feel of a New York Subway and more of lighting/atmosphere) which you will see in the inked version.Monday, October 19, 2009
