John Wayne Caricature Line Art

Here is a refined sketch of the latest thing I'm working on. It's just a caricature of the "Duke" John Wayne. I'll post work in progress images as I work.

Cartoon Avengers...

Here is some character designs I've been playing around with just for fun. We've got Captain America, Ironman and the underrated Thor. Just wanted to play around and get back in the swing of things since I haven't time to just sit and draw anything in a while. I tried to design these characters the same way I draw all of my Probe characters (see www.bryanfinch.com or www.coroflot.com/bryanfinch), angular and with an animation influence. I've been pretty influenced over the years by the great Bruce Timm (Batman: The Animated Series) and all of his great character designs. I also in enjoy looking at the character designs of Sean "Cheeks" Galloway (Spectacular Spider-man). He has a real fresh approach to the way he designs his characters. Hope you enjoy my designs! You can click on the small images and they will open up in a new window much larger.

Madonna with Obama Final Art

Here is the final art for "Madonna with Obama." The piece was created with all traditional media with a little digital editing like the cracking texture. I wanted it to look aged a bit.

Madonna with Obama Line Art

Here is a sketch for and editorial piece I just finished. It is dealing with the issues of how President Obama is viewed in the eyes of the mainstream media and some of his "followers". I used a classic compositional setup for the image by looking at paintings from around the time of the Renaissance. I then "characterized" the two figures to add some humor to the piece...hopefully.

Just the Beginning...

Welcome to the official blog to all things Bryan Finch. This Blog will hopefully act as a supplement to my website www.bryanfinch.com. I will use this blog to post progress work like sketches, comps and even some final work as well. Hope you enjoy the work you see here and please feel free to comment as often as you like.
