Thaddeus

Boy it's been a while. Some of you may remember me as someone did some drawing once in a while.

So here's a commission piece for Verileah that took me forever to finally get to.

Also.. here's the uploaded sped up video clip of me making the drawing. It'll only be available on yousendit for 7 days though. File size is 135MB zipped and 30 minutes long.. oh yeah and it had no audio either.

You need a haircut.

I kid. The shading is amazing on his cloak, but that was ... fricking wild to watch you sketch it. Watching you draw was really interesting, especially how you stick your pencils in your mouth lol. You got a little crazy with your eraser too. Have you filmed any other sketch process?

Next time you do another movie, wear a TAC shirt =D

Yeah, I really do actually.

I'm lazy though... I'm waiting til just before I fly out to the Comic Con so I can be aerodynamic enough to fly through the crowds.

I haven't filmed any other works. This was a first time experiment though I may do it more once I get used to how to set it all up.

damn that's gorgeous!! And it says Thaddy to me for sure *giggle* It's good to see something of yours around again Saraq, I'd been wondering what you were working on lately.. I just love your stuff =D
Verileah 18 years ago
I'm of course thrilled to pieces . *points* he put the turtle in! Really, I'm so impressed with how you took my ramblings on the character and turned around and captured him so well.

And *sniffs* Thaddy? Next people will be calling him T-Bone.

Oh, wait...
Saraquael 18 years ago
Thanks all.

Yeah, I've been busy with deadlines for the past few months so I haven't been able ot pick up the pencil as much. this is the first big drawing I've done in about 6 months.

As for what I've been working on... nothing in terms of actual drawing... lots of color restorations though. lol

One of the first things I saw was the turtle and I was like "eeee! perfect!"

you have been busy alright! So has working with Marvel been as cool as it sounds to an outsider?
Saraquael 18 years ago
It ain't bad. I'm not part of the creative team. It's more like post production work.. or post-post-production work since these were printed so long ago.

They pay decently, I get to work from home and I get to study some of the masters of the form and really try to learn from them.

It's definitely not a glory job though. So my ego takes a back seat to the work

Thaddeus looks amazing. I love picture and it does indeed look very much like him. The flow and cut of the clothing is also wonderful and,yes, Mai (the character) is quite happy that you put in the turtle.

Very amazing!

Slight hijack... Your going to ComicCon?! How cool is that. Two of my friends are going too! They have a list of places to visit and buy stuff for me. hahah

Soooo will you be at a booth?
Saraquael 18 years ago
No booth for me. I'm just an attendee. though if things work out well, I'll get in for free. heh.

But yeah... I'm but a lowly color restoration grunt. Nobody goes to a booth to see that
Calimaryn 18 years ago
Getting in free is damn good though! I checked into prices even though I couldnt go. Have a great time!

And people would too go to see color restoration, I am sure. You do fabulous work.

Here's the inked version.

It's still got some rough areas, but in my defense I was inking with a blistered thumb. lol
