Through the Years

Hi everyone! Is everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving next week ready?? I know I'm not. Time fly's when your having fun. Sorry for the cropped scan but here's a sketch of a character called Kidd Bonzai. It was created by a good friend and super talented guy Derek Fridolfs. This character has been through so many changes over the years that I thought it was time to do another sketch of him. I also placed at the bottom some drawings of what he's looked like over the past 8 years.

The first image from 2002 was a double spread cover for the actual comic that was going to be put out by APcomics. Unfortunately it eventually never saw the light of day and ever since has been in Limbo.  So technically this was Kidds first official look and as you can tell over the years I tried different designs. You can also see how the more we draw the better we get and learn from our mistakes. Heck maybe next week or in months I'll look at the new drawing and say Yuck!! What was I thinking. This drawing sucks! Lol. As artists we are always the hardest on ourselves. Maybe once I find the disk that held a lot of the pages for the book I'll post them up here.
