Update! Commissions now available!

Yup! I haven't posted anything on here for absolutely ages, so what better reason to post a new blog than to shill stuff!

I've been working my butt off trying to improve my drawing Transformers drawing skill (Which as you can see from previous posts, leaves a lot to be desired!), and now I'm at a stage where I feel that It's something people will pay for, so...........

I'm now taking commissions for pieces!

I'll draw anything you ask (Within reason), but I'm obviously biased towards Transformers, so the more of them the merrier!

Prices (Based on 1 A4 sketch):

Head Shot: £6
Full Body Shot: £10 (Per character)

Prices include standard UK shipping, international shipping will be charged at cost price.

Payment is in advance through paypal.

To order, e-mail me on: patient_zero37@hotmail.com
or tweet me on: @Sam_Palmer_37

Some examples of my work!



More examples coming as and when I've done them :)

I'll be updating my blog more frequently now, so keep your eyes open for more new stuff!

Laters,

Sam.

Transformers Comic!

Hey, its been a while and I haven't heard anything from IDW about my Mosaic, so I'm gonna put it up on here anyways, I'm sure it'll still be published, but its just taking time:)

But hey, here it is for you all to see.

Working Hard (On more Transformers...)

I've been drawing lots of Transformers recently, which is never a bad thing.
For those who know me, they know I'm a toy collector, and now that Marvel Legends figures have more or less disappeared, I'm now solely a Transformers collector, and I have like 100 of the little blighters to show for it, so its definitely more than a nostalgia kick.

Anyways, I've drawn, inked coloured and lettered a 1 page Transformers comic (written by Mario Coleman of Apocalypse Comics) for IDW's "Transformers: Mosaics" series, which I'll put up on here at some point in the future, maybe once its been published online by IDW.

But, all is not lost, Here is a Bruticus commission I've done, also for Mario, to display in his Comic Shop. This commission was done for the princely sum of (Drum Roll Please...) A 1985 Transformers Video. Yeah, a VIDEO. Thats how much of a Transformers fan I am, I create artwork that takes 2 days for a piece of redundant technology I can't use. Good Times!

On the Transformers front, I found some line art, drawn by the awesome Casey Coller, and decided to try my hand at some realistic (Well, comic style realism) colour and tone, and I think the results are pretty good.
Credit goes to Casey Coller of IDW comics for the awesome line work!

New Drawings Galore!

Hey, I've been working on some new pieces, so thought I'd post them up here for you to check out.

Firstly, Here's Death's Head, a character I wasn't really too familiar with, and isn't strictly speaking a Transformers character, but has been featured in Transformers comics of the past. This drawing was a semi-commission by noted comic artist Simon Williams (Well, he asked me to do it and I did...:P).

And, here is Transformers Hot Rod. My favourite Transformers character of all time, who I'd never really had a shot at drawing before, but think I'll be drawing a lot more from now on:) I tried to give him an innocent look and a cheeky grin to show that he is immature, yet cocky and head-strong.

New stuff :P

Auto Assembly 2009 has been and gone, and has inspired me more than ever, so I'm in the process of working on some Transformers themed comics:)

Its been a while since I've done a full page comic and not just a 3-4 panel strip, so its going to be quite fun! Plus I get to draw Transformers and hot chicks, which is always good:)

Here's a drawing of Powerglide I drew whilst at Auto Assembly, Which I scanned and coloured using Photoshop.

Comments welcome:)

Wow... Loooooong time coming!

Its been a while since I updated this thing, so I thought I'd just pop on so people know I'm not dead (Yeah, all 7 of you...)

Lots of good new stuff coming soon, so keep 'em peeled:)

WWF Commercial... The Home Stretch...

Hey, just a little update for you,
My WWF commercial is 60% done now, with just the rendering and compositing left to do, so I thought I'd give you guys a little teaser of what the final film will look like.

I've done some simple still renders of a scene from the commercial, so you can get a feel for how the final thing will look.

Here's a render from a different angle that won't be seen on the final piece, but just to show the flat, pop-up look of the film.

And finally, a shot of the book itself, from the opening of the commercial.

So, if anyone actually reads this, please let me know what you think!

Peace,

Sam.
