Wow, what a big boa she has :S

[MarkChatman]

Oooooo. Nice. :)

[killingyouguy]

Wow. Alex, you make me hate myself. Please do every comic book that exists.

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

I got more, you should see my other series cover. I'll post it soon.

[ashwin]

Awesome.

[changingshades]

Wow

Looks very Mack-y to me, which is quite good.

Are these done in Painter, Alex? If on canvas/paper, how'd you block out Frank on the #17 cover so the blood wouldn't run all over him?

I masked the area.

Hi

The Punisher and Nova Covers are brilliant. Great job. The Punisher just exudes violence.

Congrats on getting to do some covers.

Alex, awesome Nova cover! The subtle addition of the Phalanx infection around his eye is very creepy... hidden by the shadow just a little bit. Glad to see Marvel has kept you busy with covers, if not a monthly book

I agree with this. It is very Mackesque...

#21 is outstanding.

i think the greatest aspect of alex's covers on punisher is that the punisher looks like any green beret or ranger off the street. it isn't a body building misfit, but a real person.

the facial expression and body posture are great. they really add to the feel. the coloring on this does look a bit like "mack".

This is ridiculous.

Here's the process:



i love seeing the steps and the time stamps are cool as well.

[Falcifer]

Crap might have to chase this PWJ #21 to go along with the #17 I snagged... looks damn good.

[Amedeo]

Great work, Alex. Those pants (among other things) are fantastic!

[Brandon191]

This is ridiculous.

:lol:

man...this is simply awesome!
I really would like to see Alex doing a P&B book someday...





maybe with Black Widow....:)

[the last ronin]

I love that last Punisher cover, me and my buddy were commenting on how cool the rough drawing was the other day.

I agree that Alex would be awesome on a Punisher book.

[DaGetHighKnight]

This is ridiculous.

[dEnny!]

Wow

Looks very Mack-y to me, which is quite good.

I don't see it, outside of a painted feel. It looks like his Wanda cover to New Avengers, which is ALL MALEEV baby.

awesome!!!:)

[Amedeo]

awesome!!!:)

Indeed. :cool:

DAMN, beautiful as always Alex.

[Hoggie]

The gritty realism of the punisher covers is a perfect fit for the character IMO. Alex, seems like you are becoming one of the more popular cover artists for Marvel. About fucking time :)

[FrnkCastle]

Issue 22's cover is amazing, love it!!!

I agree with you, Hoggie.

[VitoDGK]

Alex, you wouldn't, by any chance, happen to be a Bettie Ballhaus fan, would you? ;)

[Welt]

Great to see your process, Alex! This stuff just confirmed me that I need to get the Wacom I've been planning long of getting - not that I think it will make me the master of craft you are, but I'm seeing the possibilities, making drawing and painting sort of come closer together.

Are you using Painter or Photoshop?

[Alex(sadly)Maleev]

Alex, you wouldn't, by any chance, happen to be a Bettie Ballhaus fan, would you? ;)

;-)
She has always had healing powers over me.

[Arion]

Great to see your process, Alex!

Yes, it really gives me an idea of how it goes.
