1) Patrick Fillion has done an issue of Boytoons on ANTI-HEROES #3! Check it out!
2) I have to give props to my web developer, Christine So. She does great work– if any of you need web help!
3) I WANT GAMES! All I have are the 2 that I’ve had forever– the Dress-Up game and the Baku Block game. If anyone knows who I can work with to get some web-games (either Flash or Javascript) of my Anti-Heroes up, please let me know. I’m a good client to work for. I pay! haha.
Ok, that is all.
Of course, I said all this intermixed with bursts of evil laughter because I know this kid really dislikes campy Batman. “Why do you want to see me suffer?” he said. “Why do you want to see my heroes raped and ruined?”
“Because, shit, other people need to see how it feels, goddammit.”
“Ah, so that’s what this is about,” he says. “You just want this cartoon to succeed out of spite for all the crappy X-Men media that was released.”
I tried denying it for a while– saying things like, “Well, I think that creators take a lot of liberties when they are given a franchise to reinterpret. And a lot of the time, they end up alienating people who liked one specific interpretation.”
“So you are glad that I’m not going to like it then?”
“You betcha,” I said. “I hope some people really end up hating it and thinking their favorite character has been ruined, just like how I felt with the X-Men movie and how my partner felt with the new Star Wars movies and so on.”
The discussion was concluded by his assertion that I am an evil, vengeful person who revels in people’s misery. I am okay with that. But in all honesty, I do think this toon looks pretty fun! 🙂
And so yeah, I kindof don’t remember the model from which these were based. All I remember is that I probably wasn’t really attracted to him, which is why I turned each of his poses into a hot Persuasions character!
I spoke about Anthony in an older post in response to a few fan-arts he did of my original characters. Little did I know then that he’d give me a TON more!!! I wanted to display ALL of it right away but that was during my hellish-no-time-for-anything-pray-I-don’t-shoot-myself period. Now that I have a little breathing room, I feel like it’s finally time to show you guys Anthony’s awesome masterpieces.
I draw with Anthony at the Workshop, and fell in love with his style early on. He has a way of really capturing a man’s masculinity and virility with nothing more than a sexy pose and naughty facial expression. And he’s a speed demon! No joke, I’ve seen my man sketch, pencil, ink, and color a piece to artistic completion in less than 20 minutes. That’s why even though I was super-excited to get these, I wasn’t too surprised at the volume. I bet he can do 5 of ’em in a night!
Some of these are colored by Anthony. Others are colored digitally by me. We make a good team, huh?
He even showed me some of his thumbnail sketches for pieces he didn’t end up doing. (The two below this paragraph.) He was going to toss them but I begged him to let me hold onto them! They’re pretty detailed sketches, dude!
I also love that he’s into more than just the 3 main characters. He’s a big X-Men fan just like me and thusly likes my mutant rip-offs, the Bomb Squad. Below are a few of his sketches of them.
One thing I always marvel at with Anthony’s work is his incredible attention to detail. He has a vivid imagination and not only comes up with the figures from his head, but also the props! I kinda don’t love drawing props and doodads, but you can tell Anthony is a pro at it. Just look at this illustration on the right– so crazy detailed, I couldn’t even think about coloring it! (The offer to anyone who wants to is hereby officially on the table!)
I’m a little glad that I held off from posting these for as long as I have because it allowed me to time this post with the release of Anthony’s first art book. Published by Bruno Gmunder, Bronx Boys is a collection of some of Anthony’s best work. Every piece is unmistakably set in New York City. Anthony seems to have captured the very essence of what makes the men here so frikkin’ irresistable.
Soooo, thanks for giving me the strength and motivation to keep working! I’m here to deliver PORN 4 U!
PS: You may have noticed my sites were down most of the week. My lovely webhosts just up and… do that sometimes. If you tried to e-mail me during that time and it bounced back, please re-send now.Yeah, it’s pretty maddening. I am correcting the issue as I type– rest assured heads will roll.
They never thought it could happen, but it has! The Anti-Heroes get captured by the Bomb Squad– a team of super-powered bounty hunters!, led by a woman called Parasite. Learn the true secret of Caleb’s “baby’s mother” and why she wants him dead! Will Caleb’s awesome cybernetic power-suit be enough to escape? Find out in this, the first Anti-Heroes book with full pornographic nudity on more pages than just the pinups! And speaking of pinups– there are twice as many as usual in this book, including some in mind-blowing 3D! 3D glasses included!
I am extremely proud of this book, gang. My art has improved tremendously. I took a lot of care in drawing all the action scenes in such a way that’s exciting, dynamic and (of-course) erection-inducing! This is precisely what took this book so long to come out. I actually had much of it done a very long time ago, but then decided it wasn’t sexy enough. So I went back and redrew most of it, revealing the boys’ drippy dicks and heavy nutsacks as much as possible! I even show a bit of female nudity! This book had to be my raunchiest yet, and thusly, the page count ballooned to an almost unmanageable number. Because of the length, I opted for perfect-binding with a spine, as opposed to stapled binding. In the end, this issue physically feels more like a graphic novel than a short-form comic book.The color this time around is beautifully rendered by the artist, Silvano. His hard-edged, bold shapes really compliment my sharp line, lending the art in this issue more toward cel-shading than a traditional comic book. It ends up looking like stills from some hot steamy cartoon! Fans of animation will really appreciate this book.Oh yeah… and did I mention this puppy’s got a few pages in 3D?! I admit, this was a last minute decision, urged through my friends and partner. He is the one mainly responsible for converting the 3 Splash Pages that have a 3D version. And let me tell ya, if you forgot how awesome anaglyphic 3D really looks, these few pages will definitely remind ya. It’s a little trippy.
So, take a trip over to my online shop and grab your copy of Anti-Heroes #3. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you may even spooge yourself!
The best was the boys. Dude… boys and men in this city are ridiculously hot. I’m not exaggerating at all. They are so my type… olive complexion, hairy chests, crew cuts, sideburns, 5’o’clock shadows, and since they love football (soccer) so much, they’re all fit. Like even the “average” guys were hot by my standards. I don’t know how it’s possible. But all their faces seem to just have everything in the right place, ya know!? haha.
Negatives: 1) everyone smokes. 2) Catalan totally sounds like lispy Spanish. I can’t say “grathiath” (gracias) with a straight face. 3) they think the mullet is cool. No lie– 75% of all the young people there had some form of mullet. It’s like– in style. wth?
