Aliens, The Cape, and Death's Head

Aliens Vs. Superman page
Dan Jurgens (Penciller)
Kevin Nowlan (Inker)
Larson James (Colors)
I had a lot of fun coloring this page, I've never read the comic before but this the second page I've colored if it (last one was Aliens vs Superman cover with James Whynot Link )
Anyway I love all the little nooks and carneys of the Xeno that are just so much fun

The Cape page
Line art by Zach Howard 
Colors by Larson James aka ME
again I had so much fun on this. I'm very proud of the wood, its not a photo texture, just a lot of texture brushes. Also I really like the Chainsaw blade 

Death's Head II
Lines by Johnny Segura
Johnny did this sketch for me awhile back of the great character in comic book history, sadly though the rest of the world doesn't agree so he didn't have much of a run.
Anyway back to the art Johnny did this awesome digital sketch of Darksider with this bright green back lighting and i liked it so much, so I decided to color this with that image in mind. Pretty happy with it. Normally for a Death's Head close up he has a big glare light coming off of his right eye, I was going to do that but decided it would be to much

I had so much fun coloring this one! it was so easy, I knew what I was going to do every step of the way. It just flowed very well! I think this is one of my best pieces and a few others agree, theyve said some great things!



I made a video of myself coloring this, surprisingly only took a little less then 2 hours but I sped up the video to about nine mins. HOPE YOU ENJOY

DEAD BY DAWN!

AWESOME LINE ART by GREG SMALLWOOD!
Colors by Myself LARSON JAMES

If theres one thing everyone should know about me it that I'm a HUGE EVIL DEAD NUT! I've seen all three over a thousand times, I can quote all of them by heart!
Anyway I color this same image awhile back before I got my wacom, and knew what i was doing, needless to say it looked like crap so I decided to go back and re do it! I did this in about 5 maybe 6 hours, which its pretty short for me. Something just clicked with this and I knew what I was doing at all times, there wasn't guessing or anything, I knew what I wanted the image to look like and went for it.

Zombie Years Pin up

 Had tons of fun coloring this! It just was a great image! Emanuel Sotomayor might be making some prints of this for cons, so if you'd like one for yourself contact him. John from Creature Entertainment said he might make this a pin up in an up coming book, *fingers crossed*

Pyramid Head take 2

Refined the Pyramid Head painting I did a week or so ago. Added more pipes to the background, darkened the whole image, and added more detail to things.

Joker


This is my first 100% Digital Painting. Meaning I drew it on my tablet instead of scanning in a drawing and, for lack of a better word, trace it. This is based on a very crude sketch I did back in 2008. I'm pretty happy with it I still have A LOT and I mean A LOT to learn about painting.

A little bit about painting itself. The way I did this and i think will be my process: First I started by filling the canvas with a midtone gray and then using some texture brushes I have to make a nice gritty texture. I used the default chalk brush (which I learned from Feng Zhu) at first really big to block in the the overall shape. Once the shape is there I resized the chalk brush and began to sketch out the details. The big change for me was I set Opacity to Pen Pressure, the reason this help so much was because it made drawing feel more like a pencil, the harder I press the darker the color is. I did about 2 rough passes with the chalk brush then once I felt I had the drawing down I switched to the default Hard Round Brush turned opacity off and cleaned up the line art, with my two roughs on different layers at a low opacity, to make it kinda like tracing paper.

Zombie Years #4 Cover

Heres the cover for Creature Entertainment's Zombie Years #4
Layout by Xaq Bazit
Finish Pencils and Inks by James Whynot
Flats  by Ludwig Olimba
Colors by ME Larson James

I had a blast coloring this! But because I only had a day to color it I couldn't do everything I wanted to do. But overall pretty damn happy with how it came out, which doesn't happen very often. With every piece I do I always try to something new, with this one I did a few things, the blur on the action lines to really make the center of interest (girl and zombie) just that the center of interest, and also to help the image read better overall. I also dropped in a grain texture just to the reader know that this is a ugly time, nothing pretty about it. Anyway hope you enjoy!
