The All New Website Is Live and the Scribbler Is Moving!

2011-02-18T10:43:00.000-05:00

WWW.WARRENMARTINECK.COM

It's official, the new Website is up. I'm pretty excited by the whole thing as it went up fairly smoothly with only one minor glitch that I can live with. Current technology... awesome. 2 years ago it would not have been this easy. I just got handed the "Look, A Monkey Can do it!" award.

Although this will no longer be the home of "The Scribbler", it will live on at my website. A big thanks to all that have followed along and posted or sent emails and I hope you can continue to follow me there.

See you there.

The Return Of Casual Friday! (#25)

2011-02-11T11:57:00.000-05:00

Yes, it's the return of Casual Friday's. It's been awhile and I've finally tripped across a Friday where I don't have 13 other things to do. Today there's just 4 or 5 other projects I should be working on.

I have a short list of requests for Casual Friday's and this Spider-man is the first one from it. And to answer another question, no... at this point none of these Friday Drawings are for sale. Sorry.

Here's Spidey.

A Few More Requested Scans... Complete Avengers Subsets

2011-02-09T16:19:00.000-05:00

Since I've started posting some of these older cards I've drawn and also that I've cancelled my account on the now worthless ComicSpace which held all my Galleries, I've been getting a bunch of requests to post more and more scans here on my blog. As cool as that is, I've decided to set up a special gallery section on my website where I'll post everything there.
Also, now that I've finally finished all my Sketches for the Marvel Dangerous Divas set, working on my website is officially in my schedule. I'm gonna give this a whirl, rework my whole site, and cross my fingers that I can come up with something that doesn't suck.

Martineck Marvel Overpower Cards

2011-01-27T18:51:00.004-05:00

Moving right along into the next multi - requested checklist, here are all the cards I drew for the various Marvel Overpower card sets. They were all base cards and I believe I have them all accounted for. If anyone thinks I missed one or screwed the list up in anyway, please let me know.
I don't know if there is a resurgence going on for these sets or what, but I've been contacted a lot about these cards recently. Along with which ones I did, I've also been asked if I have the originals and if I'd be willing to sell any. I know I have many of the originals. Some I've already sold here and there, some were "lifted" from Fleers offices and I never got them back, and I know of one that was lost in a fire. As for selling them, yes, I would be up for that. But, I am in the middle of a fairly tight deadline and probably won't be getting around to organizing that until I'm done in a few weeks. I will post here when I start making them available.

Thanks everyone for the interest and heres my Overpower checklist.

Marvel Dangerous Divas Card set

2011-01-11T10:55:00.000-05:00

Ok, now that it has been officially announced, I can finally say yes, I'm working on the Marvel Dangerous Divas card set and doing up an undisclosed amount of full color Sketch cards. Rittenhouse has this scheduled for a March 2011 release and it looks like my cards will be release as 18-case incentives.

If you haven't noticed, I've really cut back on the amount of card sets I've been working on. I also try to come up with something different for each new set I do work on. (which is no small feat) For this set all the sketch cards I'm doing will be 2-card puzzles that will include at least 2 characters for each puzzle. It's working out really cool and I'm loving the expanded work area. Plus, from what I understand, Rittenhouse will be including both pieces of each puzzle in one Archive box so you won't need to try and track down the other half and be all disappointed when you can't. On top of all that there will be an additional twist involved with the puzzles. More on that teaser... probably around release time.

back to work....

Double Page X-Men Avengers Commission

2010-12-16T10:11:00.000-05:00

Well, I've recently finished up the Inks over Mike Lilly on that oversized Antony & Cleopatra Graphic Novel and have seen some of the colored pages which look awesome. (Nice job Wilson) Among another little unmentionable job I had to fit in, I've finally caught up on a big chunk of work. But before starting my next job, which is already a few weeks beyond my intended starting date, I needed to get a good studio cleaning (next post) and one last commission I've had on my list that I'd intended for late summer.
So here it is, a little late but it always feels so good to get these done.

By request: X-Men vs Avengers, in pencil.

Website, ComicSpace, and DC Legacy

2010-11-02T10:21:00.000-04:00

As I mentioned yesterday, I was scheduled to start working on my website this month and had everything all set up. I even signed on to Squarspace to make it easier for myself, but due to the unexpected workload, the website update just isn't going to happen yet... again. I'm seriously getting frustrated about not getting anytime to do it. I can barely keep up with this blog and I've pretty much given up on following Facebook.
ComicSpace was one of the sites that was making it easy for me with getting up scans of my work. They had an awesome layout and gallery section for easy viewing and was very easy to upload. Unfortunately ComicSpace went down hill this year. The site owners didn't seem to be very hands on, spammers started taking over which the moderators seemed to do very little about, and I just stopped visiting. They've just recently updated their entire format. Now, I give them props for trying something new and being present enough to want to move their site forward, but the new site is a complete waste of space. They took out the "easy" from every aspect of what I liked about it and the galleries are next to impossible follow or view with any kind of ease or control. So I gave up on them, deleted all my galleries, (which wasn't easy) and closed my account.
Now the plan is to update my website to the way I want it and now add the same type of gallery section that ComicSpace used to have.
I've also been contacted about Scans for my DC Legacy cards I did for that set and thought I would just post them here until I .... hopefully.... and eventually, get to my website update. (Can you here the frustration in my voice? Sometimes I just need to bitch about something and get it out.)

These are all my scans for the DC Legacy set released by Rittenhouse Archives in Sept 07.

Enjoy

Work and NYCC

2010-11-01T13:29:00.002-04:00

"Where've you been?" "Working my ass off, that's where."

That was the gist of a brief email conversation I had the other day and it accurately describes my past few weeks.

I had finished up most of my freelance work, as planned, in late September and didn't have anything scheduled for afterward. So I got to jump on all the commissions I had piling up and finished the majority of them. Although I still had a few to get to , I also planned on doing up new artwork for showing around the New York Comic Con as getting real work is the main priority. In the process of doing that work, I agreed to take on another Penciling gig for Bluewater and finally said yes to be on an upcoming sketch card set to help fill in the future schedule. But, 2 or 3 days before the Con, Mike Lilly contacted me about Inking an Antony and Cleopatra Graphic Novel he was penciling and he really needed help. So I was on board for that too and found my schedule completely full until January and I hadn't even left for NYCC yet.

Which brings to this short concentrated review of the con: Awesome.

It was extremely busy, had tons of people, and left me pretty damn tired. I basically spent 2 days walking around seeing friends I haven't seen for awhile, meeting artists, hitting up various publishers, book pushers, dealers, and showing my stuff around. It went better than I expected and I even added to my current workload with publishers that wanted to see more.

So that's where I've been, putting in some double overtime trying to get everything done. It's working pretty good and I've got a good pace going. Unfortunately I've had to put off a few of those remaining commissions and updating my Website, which I originally had in the schedule for right now, is again on the back burner.

Next: Filling a visual request.

Actively looking for an assistant.

Star Wars Sketch cards and Collectors Expo Wrap Up. ...And 100th Post

2010-10-06T19:20:00.000-04:00

   Yes, that's right, 100th post, and for me, that's something. (I'll post more about that at another time)

Getting right to it, I just thought I'd say a few words about this past CECE convention in Chicago. I was there all 3 days, although Sunday was short for me as I had a plane to catch. It was a really good show and I had a great time seeing friends and people I haven't seen in awhile or have even met before. I sat next to John Czop who I haven't seen in ages and the Tosers were behind us. (These show pics were supplied by Harris from Nonsport Update, Thanks Harris!) It was a fun section. The second pic Randy Martinez stopped by and chatted for awhile. It was cool meeting him and Denise Vasques, and all the other artists were very friendly as well. The Celebrity dinner and presentations were very cool too and I'm so glad I went. I can't recommend this show enough, you have to attend.

   A special thank you goes out to Paul and Diane (and Cherie). True class acts and some of the best people I have the honor of calling friends. They really know how to treat their guests and make you feel like your not just another name on a list. Most conventions I'm stuck behind my table the whole time, I don't eat well, I don't get much sleep, and I'm a waste product by the time it's over. This show is different and they make sure you eat and they go out of their way to get you what you need when you need it. On top of that, what they do for charity work is down right moving. The Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation work they did and auction they had set up was inspirational. Thank you for being such good people.

  Speaking of the Charity Chest auction, here are the Sketch cards I did for the Treasure Chests. Working with Topps, they were able to get the OK to do official Star Wars images on the sketches. Seeing as how I've never done any before I thought this was a good time to start.

  So for all the emails asking me to post them, here are the 9 Star Wars cards I did for it.

Hope you enjoyed them.

Fame: Kristen Stewart Released... and Instantly Sells Out.

2010-08-26T13:39:00.003-04:00

"Fame: Kristen Stewart" One Day Sell-Out"

Ok, maybe not instantly, but one day is still pretty good if you ask me. Though I don't know when, I do believe there will be a second printing of this book that I did the Pencils on. In the mean time, there will be a flip book released next month with both issues of the Robert Pattinson edition and the Kristen Stewart Fame issues back to back. Order at Amazon here.

Later
WM

Update: I've been asked if I will be selling my original Penciled pages for the Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner books. Yes. I'm working on updating my website and will have a page just for this purpose. I will need to hold off selling the Taylor pages until the book is released.
I will post here when everything is up.
Thanks

Update #2: No, sold-out doesn't mean no longer available. It just means that all the copies printed are reserved or accounted for. You can still get them at comic shops or book stores or wherever they are sold, it's just that if the stores run out, they can't reorder any.
Thanks again.

I've begun My Backlog Of Commissions

2010-08-16T14:39:00.000-04:00

Yes, It's true! I know many of you probably can't believe it, but it's really true. My apologies to all that have had to wait longer than I hoped or when I said I could get to them. Stuff always seems to come up that your not expecting and always seems to take longer to get done that you would like. I really need to stop giving quotes as to when the commissions will get done, that's a guarantee I won't be able to do it by the time I say.
Anyway, here's one from the list I can show, an Uncut Silver Age of the Silver Surfer and Family. It's kind of a snapshot of Norrins troubled and tragic past. Featuring Elmar-Radd, Jartan-Radd, Fennan-Radd, and Shalla-Bal with his home planet Zenn-La in the background.

More to come as I get them done and get approvals.

CECE Promo Card #8... and Finished.

2010-07-28T20:03:00.000-04:00

Well, here it is. All finished, finally.
Yes, that took forever. That'll happen when your learning as you go but, I don't think it came out so bad. I would like to have had more time to fuss around with it, like tones and color variations to help pop the main character more, but maybe next time.
I'll probably have prints made up for this as well to bring to the con and have up for sale in a few weeks.

It's been fun

Well, I think I've got most of the minor Flats all done at this point. Although I'm sure I'll be altering some of the color choices, I've been told not to worry about the Flat colors too much. I tend to dwell on colors right off the bat and worry about them the whole time.

Anyway, there's not much left to do before I start going in with details. This is the fun part.

CECE Promo Card #6

2010-07-27T11:26:00.000-04:00

Tuesday 11:00 am
Ok, I was a little slow getting up today but I've got the ball moving and I've got a few good hours in already.

I remembered Shard has a big Scorpion tattoo on his back so I designed and drew that separately and I'll add it as an overly later on in the color process. This is only my second or third thing I've colored on the computer and a few months since the last one, so your not getting any Artist's tips from me on this one. I've got my How to Color Comics reference book open to help remind me how to do this correctly and speed up the process.
Up to this point I've got all my main Flats in and I'm ready to continue on.

I would love to have used this piece as a practice subject to learn how to digitally paint, as that's what I'm really interested in learning. But this has to ship out at some point.

How-To #5; CECE Promo Card #5

2010-07-26T16:56:00.001-04:00

Monday 4:30 pm

  My work day seems to be based around meals, snacks, and food. Mexican strikes again as I just enjoyed a great snack of nachos. With a Diet Mountain Dew chaser to counter the effects of getting up at an unholy hour.

  Here's the scan of the card now fully Inked. I mostly used a brush and various sizes of Microns and now it's ready for the next stage. From here on in it will all be computer work.

  I will need to take a break at this point as the clock is telling me real life needs to start happening soon. I hope to get back to this tonight and maybe get one more post in before bed.

Until then...

How-To #4; CECE Promo Card #4

2010-07-26T13:26:00.001-04:00

Monday, 1:00 PM

Lunch was good, lots of leftovers from the Mexican themed party we had over the weekend.

... And I decided to go with Card "A". The main reasons were; even though the action in B was better, the figure looked a bit out of control and didn't quite fit with Shards character. Card A's figure being more in control with a steady stance felt more right. The flow of the chain whip in card A also felt better and less crowded than it is in card B. On top of all that, lately, in honor of Frazetta's passing, I've been meaning to do a piece where the main subject had their back to the camera. (something he did often) Seeing as how I already have pics of shards face I thought this would be a good time to switch things up.

What I did was take the rough in Photoshop and add it to one of my Trading Card masters that has all the measurements and crop marks all ready worked out. Here I can adjust the piece, move the figure around a bit, adjust the size or whatever. I then turn the dark pencil lines into a very light Blueline drawing and print the whole thing out on good paper. This is where I go at it with some tight pencils and figure out the little details.

I was having a bitch of a time with the dead (Ogre's?) left hand and redrew that thing over and over. I finally broke out the camera and took a ref photo to make it easier on myself. Now that I have it tight enough and to a point where I'm happy with it, I'll move on to the next stage.

How-To #3; CECE Promo Card #3

2010-07-26T10:14:00.001-04:00

Monday, 10:00 am

Ok, all emails are caught up with, some scheduling is fleshed out and on the white board, and I'm back on the promo.
I spent some time going over a few more thumbnails but didn't come up with anything of worth and still hadn't decided which of the 2 I wanted to do. So I did roughs for both to see what I could come up with.

I use a really dull, blunt mechanical pencil lead to do my roughs. So much easier to erase and redraw. I darkened it up in Photoshop so it's easier to see in the post.

This normally doesn't happen. Usually I do a few thumbnails, hit the one I want, and then it's off to the races. I don't think I can remember having trouble deciding between two different roughs before. But here are the two and I've yet to decide as I like elements of both.

See you in a few..

How-To #2, CECE Promo Card #2

2010-07-26T06:27:00.001-04:00

Monday morning; 5:30.
Seeing as how I need to send out the finished artwork for the promo card this week, I needed to stop what I was working on and jump on this. As I mentioned in the previous CECE post, I'm going to post the process from start to finish and try to do it in real time.
I've been thinking about the subject of the card for most of the weekend (while finishing up other work and doing all those weekend family functions) and wracking my brain about the what to draw.
Then I noticed that Larry Elmore is going to be at the show and I got all excited and had flashbacks of my old D&D days. It was a time when I was seriously getting into art, planning on going to art school, and was visually absorbing any cool artwork like a sponge. There was a book I picked up of the Art Of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons and I couldn't put it down. It was 120+ pages with 5 main artists work and a dozen or so other artists contributions. Larry was one of the artists and one of my favorites. His snow scenes were amazing.
So, in honor and with a juiced renew for some fantasy, I thought I'd do a fantasy based card. Which works well because I have been developing a character on those lines (Shard) and most of the thought process and work is already done. You can see a bit of that development here in my Lightning Whip post.

I got up this morning about 4 am (not by choice) and couldn't wait to get down to the studio to start and work out some of the images I had in my head. So I did some thumbnails and I think, or I thought, I got what I needed as you can see from the scan. I was going to go with the bottom right image, the last one I drew, of Shard facing towards the camera with destruction and dead giants or Firbolgs behind him.
Then I went back over the lower lower left image (of Shard facing the destruction) with some blue line, to help show what I drew, just for the blog. I knew what it looked like but I'm sure it would just look like scribbles to somebody else and thought this would make it easier for everyone to see it better. In doing so, I realized I liked the look of that one too, and maybe even more than the one I decided on.

So I'm off for some caffeine and breakfast and to think about, again, which one to do.

Casual Friday #24 / 2nd Anniversary

2010-07-23T08:13:00.000-04:00

I just noticed the other day that this week is the second anniversary of The Scribbler. So, I thought I'd do a Casual Friday just for the occasion.
Not sure what I'm saying with this piece, it was the first thing that came to mind.

It's tentatively titled:
"Happy 2nd, bub."

But a few more seem to be coming to mind...
"Can't believe your still at it."
"Happy 2 years. Here, pick which one I liked better."
"Good thing you didn't draw me after only one year."

...any more?
