AquaSketch by Tom Hodges - 2009

sg
This was the other sketch I picked up at last weekend's Wizard World Philly Con, by artist Tom Hodges.

Tom's cartoony work has a strong sense of design to it, and he added a bit of that here--I really like the blue tone he added to the background, a touch I didn't expect and really liked when I saw it.

I always try and "discover" at least one new artist per con and get a sketch from them, and this is a fine addition to my book.

  2. Kinda like what Aquaman would have looked like on the Batman if it kept going.

    I like it.

  3. What a great drawing! I love comic styles that border on the cartoon and action comics.

    Well done!

    Very nice sketch. His features seem a bit too sharp for Aquaman as I see him, but there is a lot of presence to that sketch!
