2012 Sketchbook - Understanding Women Vol.1

This is the cover to a new full color sketchbook that I will be coming out with in the later part of the year! Still putting this together, so the page count is still up in the air. This will showcase all of my sketches and drawings, including fan art of all female characters over the years spanning 2010 to 2012.

I will be self publishing the book, and doing a limited number release of books under the Obsidian Studios banner. This will also be revealed in the next few months as well. Pre-Orders for the book will be available once everything is set and ready to go to print. So keep watching and looking for details!

eBay Auctions for the week of 1/16

So this week I got 3 auctions up right now on eBay for sale. We've got a burlesque pinup, Black Canary, and old school Firestar. All of these pieces are original art pieces done by myself on 8.5 x 11 high end cardstock paper. The starting bids for each auction are really low. All the pencil, ink and greytone auctions this year are going to have starting bids of $.99, and the full color auctions are always going to be $5. I want to make my artwork affordable for those that can't just drop $100-300 on my bigger pieces. All the money made off this artwork will be going toward the production of The Seven comic and Obsidian Studios. So if you can, please go and bid and support my cause! You can follow this link here ------> eBay Auctions for 1/16/12 or you can go to the eBay link at the top of the page here!

Thanks folks, I'll talk to you later!

New You Tube journal!

In this vlog or video journal, I kept it really simple. I wanted to show off some of my drawings that I have been doing. Some folks thought that I was no longer drawing and just doing editing stuff with my comics. I had to put those rumors to rest. But this video also talks about some new stuff that is going on within Obsidian Studios. Please take the time to share the video, leave comments, and most importantly, subscribe to my You Tube channel! Enjoy!

Wonder Woman Pinup

Hey folks, what's goin on? I decided to do something different with my day off today to get myself focused. I have a task of getting pics done to put up on eBay this week. I put on my Obsidian Studios t-shirt and jeans, and started to get to work. I was really focused, and I busted out with some nice artwork. One of those is this Wonder Woman right here.

The first here is the lineart of the drawing. Wonder Woman is always so fun to draw. Below is the final colored version using Prismacolors, Copics and a Sharpie poster paint pen to do the stars and hair. It was really fulfilling, and afterward I thought it looked pretty good.

I'm going to be putting this up on eBay in the next few days, so be on the lookout for the video to follow soon!

Dick Tracy

This is the latest Dick Tracy piece that I just finished up tonight. I always have tons of fun when drawing Dick Tracy. I wonder what it would be like to do a comic of this guy? Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy it. I put it up on my fineart portfolio site called Prokofolio.com. I did it with Copics, and Prismacolor markers and inks. It measures 11 x 17 and done on Canson Comic Art Board. It's up for sale on the site now for $150! So email me if you can't remember the site so that you can purchase it! In the meantime, I hope you guys enjoy!

Sexy Rogue (requested by the wife!)

My wife had been asking me to draw Rogue for a while. I gotta be honest, I had been ignoring it because I didn't want to draw another static pose. She finally asked me again, and described the request, and this is what came of it. Yes... my mouth dropped open. I showed it to her and she loved it. She said..."That's gonna sell for a lot on eBay!" We shall see. If I don't get bids, or offers on it, it will be thrown up next week on eBay! E-mail me if you are interested with your offers.

In the meantime, ENJOY!!!

Catwoman & She-Hulk

I haven't posted in a while, but I thought I would go ahead and put up these two drawings I did. Both done on Canson bristol boar, and drawn with Copic & Micron Inks, Prismacolor markers, and a whole lot of time. These pieces are both on sale right now. Please send an email for price, or with an offer if interested!

eBay Auctions ending in 14 hours!

Supergirl Rebooted

So here is a new Supergirl in the new costume redesigned by DC for the reboot campaign. I have to admit that I kind of like the new suit. But that's just me. The piece is 9 x 12 bristol and done with my usual traditional materials. I have been studying various marker techniques to add to my design arsenal and learn something new. This seems to be doing well so far.

This piece is up on eBay right now for a low price, and is only up on the weekend with a low starting bid. So if you can, please bid and get your hands on this now. Either way, let me know what you think of it will you? I would appreciate it!

Finished Commissions

Here are the commissions that are finally done and finished from the eBay auction I held last week. Hope you guys enjoy. If you have any questions, let me know if you want commissions done! 9x12 inked drawings go for $45, and full color go for $75. Let me know if interested!

Black Dame Commission

This kind of warmed my heart up a bit. I have a regular client who is a big fan of my artwork that buys my stuff over on eBay on a regular basis. When I asked him what he wanted for a commission, he said that he wanted a drawing of my original Obsidian Studios character The Black Dame in a swimsuit. Talk about something I want to draw, eh!?

The drawing was supposed to be originally done on 11 x 14 bristol, but because of his loyalty and being such a great client, I did 11 x 17, and did head to thigh. I'm gonna throw in some extra goodies for him too. Your a king of clients Daniel!

WonderCon Artist Alley Location REVEALED!!!

My WonderCon Artist Alley Location this year will be AA-143! It's official folks! I will be at the Con in name only, but will be promoting some Obsidian Studios stuff there at the show. People can get their hands on White Ninja Guy: One Shot, which will be debuting the official and public introduction to Obsidians' flagship character White Ninja Guy. This book will be signed by me, and limited to a FINAL 50 copies! After this Con is over, and the issues are all sold, I will no longer be selling this comic! Also at this con, I will be selling copies of my 2010 sketchbook; Introducing: The Sketches of Ian Walker. I am looking forward to this event and getting hard copies of my publications out there to you all. Along with my original art pieces, I will be selling pre-made sketchcards, fan art prints, and other promotional materials related to future Obsidian Studios projects. 

I am also doing a promotion right now for you potential Moonwatchers out there. Here is the scoop... I have t-shirts made over on Zazzle, which is my Obsidian Studios Merchandise store. (link is in the top links area on the main blog page). I am doing a promotion right now, letting everyone know, that if you buy a shirt, and wear the shirt at the Con, and come over to my table with it on, then you will get a FREE FULL COLOR 8.5 x 11 Commission from me of one character of your choice. This is something I'm doing to show my appreciation for all your support. So I would love to see some folks sporting Obsidian there at the show!

April is going to be an exciting month in general, and I can't wait to get out there and let you folks see it all! Can't wait to see and meet you all! Talk with you soon at the show!

Commission - Jack Skellington

A Jack Skellington commission that I did for someone today. I had sooooo much fun drawing this character, and this was the first time that I have ever drawn this guy. It's cool knowing that I can do a variety of characters and that I know that I can go outside my normal style realm. Anyway, this was sold for $35. If you are interested, send an email or leave a note.
