[Mike Cross]

Bobby, that Hellboy and Silver Surfer are really cool...got any Spideys in there?

[SpydaWeb]

I'm digging the mummy, myself.

[absenter]

Luv that Mummy!

a sketch of a spidey piece i was planning on doing in pointillism

[Lilitu]

Do you've made it with pencils?I kneel myself in front of you,master:eek:

[heavysoul]

It's always a treat to pop in this forum just to check out the art created by Hellboy fans. Simply amazing.

[bobbykro]

just a quick day sketch to use up some left over paper before I decide what to do in pointillism

[parrish]

Wow. Good stuff. That Daredevil is awesome.

[jscott]

[Hellbaby]

I like your 2nd Daredevil piece. Very "Maleev"! :D

[Ollie]

Wow, great stuff. I like the Hellboy and Spidey. :)

[Lilitu]

Wow, the silver surfer is gorgeus!!!Great work! I really love your style!

[jnapper]

Ditto on the beautiful Silver Surfer--

[bobbykro]

[chiaroscuros]

I am also a big fan of the mummy!

You have a great love of detail and it shows. But the mummy page obscures so much in deep shadow that the detail that does show, really leaps out. As a fan of Mignola, you know one of his strengths is in what he doesn't show... Just something to think about....
The second daredevil is really sweet too!

[Lilitu]

Amazing! I really admire your work!!

[bobbykro]

just having some fun before my next pointillist piece

"Noted detective "Sir Basil Redbottom" has vowed to catch the notorious "M". In other news Ambassador William Bones escaped an attempt on his life when a "buzzbomb fly" he accidentally swallowed did not detonate, no one has claimed responsibility.


just a bit of fun at the ole drawing board. hope yoall enjoyed. thanks ,bobbykro

[jnapper]

Too cool. What an awesome "Sir Basil Redbottom" and wanted poster-- thanks for posting it here!

[bobbykro]

heres my latest attempt at drawing LJ (what can I say LOVE them pulp era stories, would love to see him in his own bk)

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/bobbykro/ljpinup4.jpg

[THE REAL kirk]

Your work is phenominal! Really great stuff. My favorite has to be that second Silver Surfer.

I am enjoying your pulp era illustrations...nicely done. The Lobster Johnson Magazine cover is spot on. The second LJ one could be the cover of a paperback...like the Bantam Doc Savage covers.

created this yesterday after going thru my Mignola collection ,was lucky to get Mr.Mignola to sign # 1 of the Dracula books in NY way back when.
Aplogies to Mr.Mignola

[bobbykro]

[blacklist-da]

That is so nice I wanna make out with it.

[bobbykro]

my take on the orig Black Flame from the Mignola time line.... kept it as a simple nazi portrait .... hope you enjoy & thanks for taking a peek

[hellboyone]

You got the goods, kid.

[jscott]

Say now...that is happenin' indeed, my friend. Liking the delicate inkwork, very nice:smile:

[siamese goat]

Awesome indeed...I still can't get the image of the mummy from page one out of my head, great art man!

[MarisaSmith]

Oh man, those are so cool. What talent! Beautiful!!!!!
Love the portrait!

[bobbykro]

well heres the latest piece... took some time (about a 1 1/2 pencil stage off & on).
reason for the procrastination.. wasnt confident in my artistic talent for full picture (versus) my portrait style type of art.
Know you'll see some Franklin Booth influencs in there ( as he is one of my fav pen & ink illustrators), but the piece was really inspired by a wrk by Barry Windsor Smith that I seen on the internet(which I can't locate now) don't recall the title but it has a ghost walking thru some woods.
well hope you like............ later

[MarisaSmith]

Oh wow! That is stunning! Love it!!!

[bobbykro]

Oh wow! That is stunning! Love it!!!

Thank you Marisa :smile:

[Ruri]

Man, you got the skills to pay the bills.

[The Lobster]

"HOLY CRAP!" Is how amazed I am to say a common Hellboy quote. Love the Mike Mignola Dracula art.

[bobbykro]

Thanks Ruri ,Lobster, really appreciate the comments.:biggrin:

[dogboy443]

That piece is insane!!!

[bobbykro]

As the title states this piece was inspired by a portfolio illus by one of my favorite "Studio" artists Jeff Jones

[siamese goat]

awesome art, I really enjoy checking this thread!

[MarisaSmith]

I agree with Siamese Goat. I just love your style. Another fantastic piece.

[dogboy443]

Another sick piece. Nice to see someone else is old enough to know who Jeff Jones and The Studio are. Can any of the other young whipper-snappers name the other artists involved with The Studio. After that we'll have a question on who were the Crusty Bunkers and what company did they mostly work for.

Anyone?

Mk

[dogboy443]

Here's a clue; three members of The Studio were also involved in The Crusty Bunkers and now one of the members is now a woman (?).

Good Luck,
Mk

[bobbykro]

thankyou all :biggrin:

[hellboyone]

Love the latest stuff. Jeff Jones is fine inspiration. He's the goods.

[jscott]

Yikes...once again, a piece so good it p!$$es me off...:biggrin:
And yes, Mr. (?!) Jones is indeed the goods!

Gorgeous!

I feel my nose stuck full into chain mail, 'Hedera Helix' and bone, without necessarily háving to smell anything..! :smile:

The (way swell) "Studio" (of which Kaluta may be another favourite I say) was somehow very closely followed in the Netherlands (which seems rather oblivious to much of note in comics, pulp and horror tradition).
