Hanzo!


Hanzo, originally uploaded by Sven3000.

I love Japsloitation movies! Adapting the spirit of the Blaxploitation genre in the 70s, these movies were filled with over the top violence, nudity and at times, a funky wakka wakka score. Along with the Baby Cart series and Lady Snowblood, my favorites are the Hanzo the Razor series starring Shintaru Katsu, who plays against type from his other alter ego, Zatoichi (He'll always get props from me for trying bring his stash of pot into the US by hiding it in his drawers.) Drawn whilst watching "Whose Got the Gold."

Manga Studio test sketch

I heard of the program Manga Studio recently, so I decided to try out the demo version. So far I like the pens tools. I wish the program didn't try to simplify some of my strokes though...

Today's sketch: Super Furry Animal


Super Furry Animal, originally uploaded by Sven3000.

I was planning on doing studies of goats today, but I got a call and this is what I draw as I conversed about arugula, the CIA, a bus whose passengers' cumulative age surpassed 1,750 years old, protecting oneself from identity theft and cowskin rugs.

Amped


Amped, originally uploaded by Sven3000.

Quick sketch doodled with a ballpoint pen (one of my favorite weapons of choice.) I started with the urge to draw a faux hawk and it the rest of the drawing fleshed itself out from there.

Robots don't need brains anyway...

As usual, didn't know where this sketch was going, until Cthulhu guided my hand...
