WEEK 11: Artists/Non Artists draw THE BRIDE (Kill Bill)

[Fygar]

No neck up rule again this week, I don't think the character benefits from that specification. Oh, and this choice totally came out of no where. I had nothing planned, saw Bartleby's post about Inglorious Bastards, and there you have it.

I'll work on something later if I can, but for now, here's something I did for that MAKING COMICS assignment we tried on the board last year (summarize a movie in 16 panels or less)

Oooh! This is a good one!

[Pia Guerra]

Morning warm up while waiting for scans.

Wow...

Amazing.

Beautiful.

"Warm up" he says. Dude, you suck. Well, except for your artistic ability, which, apparently, rocks.

[Ashwin Pande]

Uhhhhhh...

SHE also did a little known book known as Y - The Last Man.

Heh.

Not knowing who Pia Guerra is is something I definitely did not expect to see on a Comic Book Message Board now. :lol:

Read Y - The Last Man! It kicks ass!

[Xorn]

Yay for Pia!

[DaveCummings]

Mine's coming soon. I just got home from running some errands and I'll start working on mine shortly.

[Ryudo]

Pia's a chick.

Last time we checked. :mistrust:

Who? What? What is a message board? ;)

[Supajoe]

and what do you mean, there are other comics than the ones marvel and dc publish?? ;-)

Read the first trade. Hated it. Never looked back or dug for more info on those responsible.

Apologies to Ms. Guerra for the honest mistake.

[ClintP]

Well there are, but they suck. ;)

That is great.

[Marc Lombardi]

Never saw the movie (I know...I know....) so this was very tough...

As I drew this I kept feeling it looked familiar...and when I was done all I could think of is..."wow this looks like a Liefeld..."

Pia set the bar too high too quickly. :D

Great work Pia!

[Pia Guerra]

Neo: Jesus...
Trinity: What?
Neo: I just thought... you were a guy.
Trinity: Most guys do.

How much do I love that quote sometimes?

*shrug* You're a woman working in a male-dominated industry with a male's face as an avatar. Sue me. :)

[DAVE]

I assume this is Iron Fist typing!

[Pia Guerra]

Ahem, that male face happens to be the Doctor from Doctor Who.

It's also the book I'm working on this morning.

But who's picky? Not me.

[DAVE]

You made an ignorant assumption, don't put the blame on anyone else but yourself.

Oh, I know who the Tennant is. I border on man crush for him. (ah, who'm I fooling? I'd go gay for him in a heartbeat.)

[cPol]

You made an ignorant assumption, don't put the blame on anyone else but yourself.

EDIT: Whoops. Misread your post. I never put the blame on anyone else. I didn't know who "Pia Guerra" is. Couldn't have told you that she was a woman or a comic pro. I went with the percentages and was wrong. It's really not that big a deal, since the purpose of my post was to comment on the art. Someone else decided to make it a gender issue.

[NickT]

I think I've been too ambitious for someone with as little talent as me this week :)

Chill guys. This thread is about having fun. And I love Shadowline Pimp's sketch. Very edgy.

Agreed. I like the thick, black outline. Reminds me of the style in the Clerks cartoon.

That's a warm up? Holy monkey in a cowboy hat that's awesome.

[cPol]

Pia, was that all done digitally, or were there any "traditional" mediums used to help it along its way?

About 20 minutes and Photoshop.

[NickT]

I was going to do a logo and draw some Crazy 88s around, but I thought I should quit early :)


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/ReaperFett/Drawings/TheBrideDrawing.jpg


Why did I start colouring? Why did I use Crayons? Why did I do the sideboxes? I don't know :)

On the positive side, chuffed with how The Brides angry eyes in the sidebox worked out :D

[TheKraken]

Pshaw, yours are always a highlight for me. :)

Stunning. You should blow it up and set it free unto the world as a wallpaper.

[Marc Lombardi]

Thank you, Pia. That means a lot coming from someone like you (and me being such a big fan of Y....after all my cat's name is Yorick). I don't pretend to be an artist, so this is just fun for me.

[Marc Lombardi]

Agreed. I like the thick, black outline. Reminds me of the style in the Clerks cartoon.
Thanks. I just work with what I have at my desk at work...which usually means a pencil, a black ball point pen and a thick Sharpie.

[Thomas Mauer]

Holy crap, that's going as my desktop wallpaper when I get home!

Actually Pia, any chance we can get a 1600x1200px version of this? :D

[Jef UK]

Pia, someone should hire you for a comic one day. You're excellent, dude!

[Pia Guerra]

Actually Pia, any chance we can get a 1600x1200px version of this? :D

The original is only about 800 wide but I'll fidget with it when I'm done with work.

That's brilliant. And I hate this movie so much I didn't even finish it. But if it was adapted into a graphic novel with more art like this, I... well, I wouldn't actually read it, but I'd buy it to flip through the pretty pictures.

[Thomas Mauer]

You rock. :)

Ok, here's mine.. tried to experiment with shading since MS Paint is limited with the color palette.

EDIT: Ack, I knew I forgot to add the blood.

[DaveCummings]

Here's mine. It's a really quick one, about 15-20 minutes. The anatomy seems a bit jacked to me, but here you go.

[Skatonic10]

Pia... you need to draw a Kill Bill comic. I don't really care who writes it. Hell, no one has to write it. 6 issues of 22 pages of pictures like that and I'll buy em all up!

I think if she emailed that pic to Tarantino, things would happen.

[Pia Guerra]

Okay, there's Comic Book famous and there's Hey-why-don't-I-just-e-mail-this-pic-I-made-to-my-buddy-Quentin Famous.

That second one ain't me.

(I don't even have Whedon's e-mail, that's how not famous I am but I suppose Iron Fist already proved that *g*)

[Master Jack Rabbitt]

I love these threads

[sleep]

Beautiful pic, Pia. Just awesome.

Also reminds me of some of the illustrations Cameron Stewart posted online when the film was current.

[SteveZegers]

I tried to do some perspective

Musashi never ceases to amazes in these threads. That's gorgeous.

I was really unhappy with the face on mine, so I redid it.

Sometimes I get so caught up in the little details that I don't notice how badly I'm fucking up. :)

Thanks guys!

TheKraken - I agree with greg. Great job on your pic and I like how you improved on the first face.

[Girlfriend In A Coma]

Pia, I just love EVERY thing that you draw.

I gotta finish the project in front of me before I can do this one. Can't wait. ^_^
Awesome stuff, everyone!

I don't have one of those either.

Or a home computer.
