This comics page was drawn during July 2006 for the “comicsralla” exhibition after the second Lebanese war. It’s a humorously take on the old Christian TV shows of our 80′s childhood. During the 80′s Israel had only one TV channel – the other two we could watch were Jordan and Lebanon – and our strongest memory from the Lebanese channel was definitely the cartoons (and specifically “The Flying House” among them).

I made this drawing during one Saturday’s time after watching “Austin Powers”. It happens to me quite often that I start sketching something after watching a movie or reading a book. Anyhow, I think she’s adorable, and the only thing that spoils her is the fact that I lost the original file, so I have only the copy with my old watermark to show now. Oh well.

After making the “not for men only” shirt design , someone brought up the idea of this shirt, under the title: “Comics – a legendary collection”. It was a great pleasure working on it, specially making the covers of the books (each represents a real title and some of my favorite ones are there). There’s even a hidden message within the covers, for Marc Evanier and Sergio Aragones’ fans.

I always thought that Marvel Girl’s outfit was not brought to it’s potential. That’s a tiny mini skirt, worn by a woman we know should be very attractive. I decided to stop with flat colors, because the shaded version just didn’t fit. So, there she is – marvelous, isn’t she?

“How quickly can you color a simple sketch?” He asked, and I took the challenge. If I remember correctly, it took me 45 minutes to scan and paint this. Not a very impressive result, but after all, it is cute. Isn’t it so?

A pencil drawing I made while thinking of painting it. I learned much from it – I’d do it differently today – but I love it anyway. Jem has been a wondrous figure for me ever since I saw the first episode on TV, and I like drawing her very much to this day.

I drew this for the old site, to put in any “under construction” page. I like it a lot. It’s also been a change to try cell shading. Sort of. It’s us – well, sort of, too.

I modeled for myself for this drawing. The thing is, when you sit in front of a mirror, then run to draw, return to the mirror and so forth – you get pretty crappy results. Nowadays I’d take a picture and print it on the spot. Anyhow, I adore the result. Another funny thing is I finished everything but the lightning, and then pondered for about a month how to approach it – finally I just drew it with my then-brand-new Wacom tablet. Storm is one of my favorite characters, and I enjoyed making this portrait of her so much!

This was my first attempt in coloring a pencil drawing. I like the result a lot. There’s something sweet about that painting – she’s not even cocky as I usually make Rouge but shier I suppose.

This drawing was made as a sketch on a checkered paper, and the logical thing would have been to copy it onto a clean piece of paper while fixing the many errors it has (and minding all the small detail as well). However, why be logical? I decided I wanted to control the picture process tools of Photoshop better, and decided to learn how to do so while cleaning the picture with the software. It took months! Every time I worked a bit on it, got tired, and left it. Re-drawing the piece might have been much quicker, but this way my picture processing abilities have improved drastically. It’s a fan art of Angela, a character out of the pages of Scott Mcfarlane’s Spawn, I got to know through Aria – the comic book that started it all…
