Description
Hey hey everyone!Well, I'm cutting it pretty close with this, but here' the pin-up of Witchie Boo and Inferno, two of my main man Pat's characters. I'll be honest here, I struggled a whole lot on this work. Women are not my strong point, so to nail a composition that wasn't all wonky and such was an all day affair. There are some parts that still bother me, but there comes a time where one needs to stop and just let go.
Overall though, I dig it. I just hope that Pat and the rest of y'all also share that feeling.
Techs: Prismacolor markers, violent ink, and Pigma Sensai markers on 11" x 17" Canson comic board

I think your "problem" with the female anatomy is practically gone. This looks great! Very dynamic and attention getting layout. Nice work on the skin and I'm diggin' all the detail in the broom.

Haha, thanks Nick! Yeah, that may be true, but it was a b!tch to get right. Spent the better part of my day just adjusting line after line after line until I got something that wasn't super wonky.
You can't beat Prismas man.
By the way, we should hang out soon. Let me know what your schedule's looking like and we'll work something out.

Ha! Anything in my hands is violent!
I'll have to amend that soon.
Thanks man; it was a battle but luckily I overcame and won.

You say it was tough but it looks like you own the style.

Oh trust me it was tough, but after X amount of hours toiling over little stuff you just have to go for the jugular. Luckily everything worked out for me.
Thanks a lot for the praise as well.

On top of being a very dynamic pic you draw a cute and animated Ms. Boo. I don't know what you're talking about when you say you need pointers on drawing the lovely ladies, seems to me you've got it going on already.
Great take mah brother, Pat's gonna love it.

Ah yes, but it doesn't come very easy or naturally for me. I can't drop a sexy girl pic like you Dan; I have to toil and sweat over everything because this isn't in my visual vocabulary yet. The composition wasn't so much an issue; it was making Witchie look like a girl as opposed to a Gumby with boobs.
In any case, I thank you for the high praise. Means a lot coming from your direction mate.

"Gumby with boobs"
Now that's a wacky visual!
You're welcome man and don't sweat it because based on what I see here you've got the curves down-just have to get used to doing them over and over until you become a cheesecakey, pin-up jockey hack like me!

Thank you man. Proved to myself that I can draw sexy cute women as much as ugly decrepit monsters.

That it is, but it sure wasn't easy for me. I envy you Mez; drawing women comes very naturally for you. Me; monsters, skulls, and that ilk are my cup of tea. This was a b!tch to work out compositionally and anatomically, but in retrospect I'm glad I fussed over the small and large things, as it made this pic a lot stronger.

Thanks Jake! Certainly not as easy as drawing oh, say Rodan, but it was fun none-the-less.

I don't know, Rodan can be a little tough with the wings.
You're welcome

Thanks Alina! I use an old adage in the art world, "Fake it 'til you make it." There's some spots that I just crapped out on, but otherwise, yeah, I'm pretty damn proud that I can do this type of work. Takes a hella long time (unlike monsters), but it looks cool in the end.
And here's to Prismacolor markers!
