Day 38.

This miserable bastard makes me think it might be day 1 again. Please look away

Day 37.

Another 2 minute masterpiece. Like I said, just crank em' out and catch up.

Day 36.

I need some aspirin.

Day 35.

This one's not too bad. I did it in a couple minutes at my desk.

Day 34.

So begins the stretch of metaphoric road I shall refer to as crap mile. Crap mile as it's know is a place not uncommon with lateness and lack of ideas. Let me translate. I'm behind. Super behind, so this batch and the next will be pretty bad because at I this point I just need to get caught up again, then I can expend more effort. I didn't have any ideas for this, it's my first Black Spidey. I wanted to draw him like a blob the way overlaps, tangents and foreshortening sometimes make black Spidey look blobby. I failed. Thanks for looking.

Day 33.

I kind of dig this guy. I wish I did a background, but maybe I'll revisit it later. Sometimes when his arm twists, I stare at the paper thinking: "How the heck does the red and blue move around his arm." I think I already said this about something else, but the arm twists are easily the most difficult part of drawing Spider-Man's costume. So, if I did say that in an earlier post, I've changed my mind. The webbing seemed tricky at first, but once I developed a pattern it became pretty simple. It tends for me to be the most enjoyable part because that's when the figure really becomes Spider-Man. Up until now the drawings have all been pretty sketchy, so I've been phoning the webbing in. As I move to complete more finished Spider-Men, I have to make sure I do a better job with the lines and spacing. 

Day 32.


A swinging pose. Stiff, but stiff on purpose. I was kind of thinking of how Spidey lands in the movies. That lower foot is kind of reaching out for the ground.
