Happy May intrawebz!
A few weeks ago, I found myself in possession of a red ink pen & pencil. Hmm, what could “I” do with such drawing implements?? The two gears left in my brain not permanently damaged by alcohol began to turn. They turned FAST! I needed something to spice up my TwitterSketches that I post on my twitter account!
Enter Redhead Appreciation Week! Seven days of sexy redheads! Yeah, I know genius… how can this fail? It can’t! The redhead revolution must continue!!
Again if you are not familiar with what I’m doing with my Twitter account, other than post mindless sexual perversions and food images, is posting quick 15minute sketches on any particular subject I fancy at the time. I tried to focus on characters I haven’t had the pleasure of drawing often or at all:
Monday: Black Widow – who doesn’t like a badass redhead decked out in skin tight black tights? I have to say I was influenced a bit by Iron Man 2. I have to say Scarlett didn’t disappoint… only that there needed to be more of her whooping ass! lol.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Tuesday: Medusa – I can’t say I’ve ever drawn this Marvel redhead. I dunno why. I think I might revisit her later… do something uber sexy with the hair.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Wednesday: Joan Holloway – I caught wind of this show called Mad Men a while back. Its a show about some ad execs in the 50s… guys in suits, who draw&sell and drink and are surrounded by sexy curvy 1950s fashion clad women… oh yeah, that’s what Amano heaven is like!! lol That’s when Miss Holloway caught my attention. Watch the show, you’ll see what I mean. woot!
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Thursday: Red Sonja – I love this character. Never quite understood why non of her comics took off. I really enjoyed seeing Frank Cho’s version. There needs to be more of her. Hear me comic guys? DO ET! haha.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Friday: Pheonix – I miss old comics! I especially miss the work of Alan Davis on Excalibur… such an epic series with amazing art!! The beauty of an artist like him is that he was able to draw everyone and anything! … and do it in an an exciting and amazing way! I envy that. This is my tribute to Rachel Summers aka Pheonix!
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Saturday: Madelyn Pryor aka The Goblin Queen – Another blast from the past! Another epic redhead from the pages of Uncanny X-Men… if you can imagine a sexy evil version of Jean Grey it would be Madelyn. She wore a black costume that pushes the boob limit of comic-dom! haha. Love this character… do want! lol.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Sunday: Lucretia from Spartacus – this might not mean anything to you if you haven’t seen the TV show Spartacus… but if you can imagine for a second, a 60 minute show set in ancient Italy starring a half nekkid Lucy Lawless with long flowing red hair getting it on with beefy Gladiators… that’s is Spartacus. OH! They will have you believe its about a slave overcoming his imprisonment and gaining the love of the masses by becoming the mightiest of gladiators. But I know better, lol.
