Heroes 1
This is a section from an illustration I did a while back for Nickelodeon Magazine. It was used quite small, as a kind of masthead...I had fun making up different costumes, which were supposed to be reminiscent of established heroes. (I'm running pieces of it because when the whole thing is shown as a jpeg it's hard to make out, since everything becomes tiny.)

Silver Snail Poster - Final
Reader Jay Strange has kindly sent me a scan of the finished art for the Silver Snail poster I did, somewhere back around 1981 or so. I haven't seen it in a while; but looking at it brings back the memory of using an airbrush and frisket masking to create it. Photoshop is so much better and faster, but working with 'stone age' tools, as tedious as they were, certainly made for good discipline.

Silver Snail Poster Rough
Dug up from the bin of oddity-oldies: one of a series of marker roughs I did for a poster commissioned by Ron Van Leeuwen, back in the early days of the Silver Snail Comic Shop, here in Toronto...this was the one chosen for the final piece. I don't have a scan of the final to post--I sold it long ago, before the days of ubiquitous desktop scanners...
