I don’t know about some of you guys, but I’m a big fan of a comic book artist named Jason Pearson. He does stuff from time to time for Marvel but usually only special project issues, but he’s mostly know for his uber-violent illustrations in the Dark Horse comic called Body Bags.

A few days ago I stumbled on a comic book site that has a bunch of his B&W illustrations, this is one of them.

Fucking awesome, isn’t it? Like Wolverine or not, this is a pretty sweet piece of art. I dusted off the Photoshop for a quick coloring, and I think it turned out pretty nice. Now I just need to figure out a background and some color enhancements.

Whatcha’ think?

I think it’s fucken sweet. No jokes.

Very early 90’s. I fucking LOVE it. It’s goofy, but awesome, reminding me sorta like the MAXX

Like that B&W Punisher and Deadpool pic? Yeah, I’ll see what I can do. Doesn’t look too difficult.

Nice colors! That’s a great skill imo. Would like to learn that one of these days. A tablet isn’t necessary amirite?

No, a tablet is not necessary but I used one because trying to use a mouse on some of those areas would be really difficult. And anyone with Photoshop can do this. There’s nothing special about what I’ve done (no filters or layer/effect combinations), I just thought it turned out really well in color.

Thanks for the compliments.
