An entry for @kommienezuspadt's Trial by Comics with this week's theme being Steemit Artist Interpretations. The rules kind of messed me up a little as they were "I want to see your interpretations of your favorite Steemit artists in your own style." and I am not sure what my style is. I find that I enjoy doing pencils a lot without finishing out in colors, and sometimes just not even finishing out drawings at all. I also enjoy parody / homage stuff related to comic books. So if this is a style, then there you go. I picked as the topic, the great comic book writer, artist, and Steemian Douglas Paszkiewicz ( @arseniclullaby ).
Douglas' uses VooDoo Joe's zombie fetus "Ike" as his avatar here on Steemit and so I used as the focus for the drawing. I had been reading my Arsenic Lullaby trade and was kind of having in mind Cthulhu throwing the car in the Action Comics #1 cover homage but decided on an Ike throwing a Hot Wheels.
You will see in the process pics below I also had other elements like VooDoo Joe there but ended up taking him out as when I proportioned him better it was just too much distraction in the background as well as stopped looking like the Action Comics cover. Fork turned to knife, I decided against any logos on the soda can and toy car. I pulled out a ruler for this drawing. Made up some font lettering. This is also the second time I have fanboy'd out over Douglas' great Arsenic Lullaby and been inspired to draw.
