Blitzkrieg Bop

I've been tasked, by a band, with designing a logo.

At present I've been given some sample images - one explicitly being the lightning bolt design they want - depicting some classic comicbook-style imagery. Including some pop art and Kryptonian sigils.

I'm awaiting to hear back about a few queries I've had, including colouring, etc. Since I'm unsure if the logo I've been provided is their existing design or just another example piece (it does look a lot like it belongs to Black Adam.)

In the meantime, I've been doing some rough edits on the design and playing with colour variations. Also investigating typefaces, as they would like the band name included in the design.


I'm having to be careful since the colours most of the example images are using are the classic red & yellow, which - when applied to a lightning bolt - basically give you the logo for The Flash.
Examples of potential typefaces. Some may need a little more tweaking than others.

Sibling

An offhand comment on Twitter lead me to draw this stupid portrait of my brother.
It's not perfect, and you can tell I put more time into the face than anything else, but it's a good exercise in digital drawing.

Comical

Inspired by a project called Twitter The Comic, wherein a group of artists illustrate selected tweets and turn them into short strips, I have decided to practice my comicbook illustration by producing fully-fledged comic pages based on tweets I find amusing.

Below are some preliminary sketches based on two tweets I saw today.



 I'll post more when I've collated some finished pages.
