Commission: AEON FLUX

Here's a recent commission that I did, of one of my all time favorite things, Peter Chung's Aeon Flux! Aeon of course debuted on MTV's liquid television some 20 years ago, and then a few years later got her own brief series. Chung's style and his innovative storytelling was so inspiring, it was a big reason I got back into drawing and comics, and remains a huge influence. Here's the finished artwork

The color flats...

the finished lines...

and the original roughs.

Giving you a full look at the process!

ARTWORK: Vampirella commission

A recent commission for the famous horror femme, Vampirella.
My first time drawing the character.

ARTWORK: Ambush Ladybug commission

I recently had the good fortune to pass the 100,000 view mark on my DeviantArt gallery page, and as is customary, I shared the love by offering a free commission to the lucky (unlucky?!?) person that captured the 100K screen (or closest to it).

The person who captured it (and on the money) requested artwork by me of the DC Comics character, Ambush Bug, a cult favorite who launched a tongue-in-cheek mini series in the early/mid 80's (with a few follow ups over the years)...
However, they also requested that I draw the character as a girl (but otherwise unchanged). So, I thought it'd be fun to do a new female version of the first book's cover, and here you go...

PULP GIRLS sketch cards

A couple notes for those still looking to get some of the super sweet Pulp Girls sketch cards (from the recent 5finity Jam series)...

1) I have exactly 10 unopened packs left, and have posted them on eBay HERE



2)And while I didn't get any return "artist exclusive" cards on the set, as all 50 cards I did went into the 600 pack circulation, I do have a limited number of blank AE cards available. You can get custom cards with any Pulp Girl character from me for either $20ea for full color bust, or $25ea for full color 2/3rd body shot (or a bit more for more involved cards).
Just email me - jasinmartin@hotmail.com



(Or, if you're looking to score cards from some of the dozens of other cool artists on the set, hop over to the DeviantArt Pulp Girls page and you can link to their respective pages)

Full info on the sketch cards and the hub for Pulp Girls goodness is of course available at PulpGirls.com!

ARTWORK: Lost commission

The penultimate episode of Lost is tonight... and this week I'm working on finishing a huge lost commission, just in time for the big finale!

It's a group shot of the main cast, and I've been tackling the cast members individually (to put together in one large shot). Here are the first few, all the main heavy hitters...









Can't wait to see how the show wraps, regardless of HOW it wraps... I know last week's Jacob/MIB origin ep had many haters, but I'll roll with whatever they give us, I have every confidence in the producers.

Recent commissions...

Thought I'd share some recent commission work I'd done...



And this Firestar sketchcard that still needs color...

COMMISSION TIME - NYC Zombies!

I recently had the pleasure of doing a full blown multi character commission, with the request being that it had a similar vibe to my Cloverfield fan art, a group shot in an urban setting... but with zombies!

The requester didn't even want specific zombies, ie Cloverfield cast, superheroes, etc, just regular zombies. So to wrap my mind around it, I decided to use one of my actual pics from my recent NYCC trip, and the idea started to come to life, using a pic from Times Square, it would be "zombies on Broadway"!

Specifically, using this pic
The next challenge was what would inspire my zombies? Now, I've drawn some before (most notably an unused zombie variant of the issue 3 cover for Super Real special number 1), but not enough to just crank out the cool zombie action, so I needed a little direction to avoid some generic looking zombies... Then it occured to me to use whatever current pop culture stuff was rattling around my brain... and this was a few weeks back and I'd just watched the EliteXC MMA Saturday Night Fights on CBS, and brawler Kimbo Slice seemed the perfect subject!

From there, the rest of the zombies fell in place...
Zombie Downey JR, fresh off his triumphant appearance at the MTV movie awards

Zombie Lohan, also at the MTV awards, seemed a natural (and was really fun)!
But that left me wanting to do one more zombie, and fresh out of inspiration... then it hit me, myself as a zombie of course!

And so you have the final piece, with our cast of zombies making their way down Broadway... along with some adjustments to the pic...
Check it out!


Big thanks to the client for paying me to play with zombies, it was really fun!

COMMISSION TIME - Iron Man sketch card set

Thought I'd share a little commission I just finished for some Iron Man sketch cards.

The requester had some specific suits from ol' shell head's long history in mind...
