Lobster Johnson


One of the coolest, pulp hero style characters that Mignola has created is Lobster Johnson. IMO. He deserves a one-shot comic. Anyway, this is more Photoshop CS2. I started with a silhouette like the last piece.

Always surprised at how many styles you can bring to the page . Really great range and this example really looks well done . Because you paint so well I'd love to see you paint up lobster in your style . Mainly because I really dig the way you use thick paint and brushy strokes .
