Wonder Woman Redesign in Color

JunBobKim — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 08:23:45 +0000

After some consideration, this one (though not quite as “street” and drastically different as the current DC’s change calls for) was what I like the best. 11×17 inked on bristol board. Digitally colored in Photoshop.

Flash Gordon – A Tribute to Al Williamson

JunBobKim — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 11:05:13 +0000

Sadly another of comic’s legend has passed away earlier this week. As many others influenced by Mr. Williamson’s accomplishments, I was deeply moved to do a tribute piece. Here’s my attempt at drawing Flash Gordon mimicking Al Williamson’s style as best I could muster. I know it pales to his work in too many ways to mention, I finished the whole piece from pencil to ink in record time for me – 8 hrs!
Inked on 11″x17″ Bristol Board.

R.I.P. – Al Williamson.

Athena Voltaire vs. Anubis’ Army of Mummies

JunBobKim — Sun, 13 Jun 2010 15:40:09 +0000

First of all, if you haven’t checked out Athena Voltaire, you’re missing out on one of the most pulpy comic book goodness of our time. Created by my friend and collaborator, Steve Bryant, the books unveil the story of an adventure-bound aviatrix who encounters all sorts of mysteries in the veins of Indiana Jones.

When Athena was named the theme for ComicTwart contributors, an art blog made up of several fantastic industry artists, I jumped at the chance to do my own play-along version. What you may notice on my inked version of “Athena Voltaire vs. Anubis’ Army of Mummies” is that Anubis’ body is solid black unlike the pencils. During the inking stage, I noticed that the details of his body contour was distracting and the solid black helped frame Athena better as the focus center.

Finished piece inked solid and with a bit of ink wash on 11″x17″ Bristol board.

Second Chance, Deuce

JunBobKim — Mon, 11 May 2009 17:34:04 +0000

Bryan Deemer has been working hard on revamping the Comic Geek Speak’s website. In his effort to adding more excitement to the frontpage, he asked several artists to submit original art. Although I probably should have done an Ursula Wilde piece, I had a CGS Second Chance art that I decided I should finish off. You can check out the frontpage with my art at HERE.

Fallen Heroes Gains Traction!

JunBobKim — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 05:01:33 +0000

A great friend and a fantastic British author Barry Nugent had commissioned me a while back to create the cover to his self-published novel Fallen Heroes. It was my first-ever book cover design and thoroughly enjoyed working with Barry through the process. As dedicated as Barry had been in promoting the book, it is only recently that he is finally beginning to see some forward progress on his book.

After the Branch Manager of Waterstone’s Northampton stocked some signed copies in the store, she reports great response. I am so excited for Barry and wish that this is only a beginning to even greater things to come. I do recommend this book highly and suggest you try out some preview pages right here. You can even order your very own copy from the same page.

Here are some photos of the book on the shelf that Barry had taken…
