Father Vs. Son

I hear that these two are going to go at it in the funny pages, so it was nice to be able to handle my rendition of it.  I am still having a hard time creating images with a good bright color even when dealing with dark characters or situations.  I am trying to do what i do and then after flattening it changing the highlights/shadows in the Image section of Photoshop, but I would like to be able to start out that way rather than have to edit my own image after it's "done".  Thankfully that option is there to help salvage what I create, and thankfully i am able to continue to create to learn from.... 


So in case you don't know of these characters, the one on the left is the newest version of Venom and the one on the right is Carnage.  Carnage spawned from Venom's first incarnation  (with Eddie Brock) and has been his and Spider-man's worst enemy from the get go.  I honestly don't even remember how they ever were able to beat him which makes me want to go buy some old trade paperbacks=] (I own them all but they're in storage and i doubt finding a few books out of 27 long boxes will be easy/possible).

Flash Thompson, VENOM!

Venom

From a bully of Peter Parker to a friend, from a decorated soldier who lost his legs to a government agent, Flash Thompson has become a character that has grown a great deal from his beginnings.  He is now the new Venom, and with the loss of his legs, he uses the Symbiote to take on those that the government deems a threat.

Venom.... one of the best villains EVER!

I generally get asked if I have any Venom pieces in my portfolio at comic con's so I had to make sure this was ready for my next show.... the next guy on that list, Deadpool!

Here are the inks for this, I am pretty proud of them as I am trying to exclusively ink with a brush.... what do you think?=]
