Oh, and you have my permission to laugh at this one (hehehe.) The mechanic is supposed to be a little doofy-lookin’. ^___^

Preston’s expression here is decidedly serious because people are always saying how humorous my work is– even when I’m not tying to make it funny. So yeah– Preston is SOMBER and CONTEMPLATIVE here! Imagine him thinking about a man he shot last week or something.
Oh– but I guess he wouldn’t he wanking his dick while thinking about heinous crimes he committed. Oh well, whatever– it’s just NOT supposed to be comical.
In the meantime, because you guys liked that concept, I thought I’d show you where it originally came from. As I said, I have been intrigued by Greek mythology for the better part of my life. I used to sketch modern versions of the deities quite regularly. So, I’m once again opening up the vault of old shyt to show you these scary sketches of the gods. I was probably 17 or 18 when I drew these and I remember it was an attempt at fashion illustration. Pretty embarrassing– I know. Well, I am still somewhat proud of my Hera and Apollo. But yeah, the rest of them look pretty deformed.
I’ve always been fascinated by Greek mythology. If you think about it, its totally up my alley– a bunch of beautiful super-powered people who fight and screw each other.
Don’t ask me what I have planned for these guys. At the moment, there’s no comic series in the works. I mainly just wanted to design the characters and finally get it down on paper.
I’ve drawn these images as wallpapers, because I felt guilty about taking the old ones down from my site. These are all at widescreen monitor resolution (1680×1050.) For the fullscreen versions at 1024×768, visit the work section of my site.
Comments greatly welcomed and appreciated. Which one’s the hottest? Personally, I have to say that I have a thing for big boy Ryan– and also Emerson. But then again, I wouldn’t push ANY of them outta my bed– haha. Let me know what you guys think.
Mild-mannered prep school boys by day… HOT BULGING SUPER-HEROES by night! Meet “All-American” and his sidekick “Golden Boy!” These illustrations were particularly fun because of the elaborate storyline the client’s come up with. And yeah… prep school boys are effing HAWT! I went to a prep school but we didn’t get to wear uniforms. I remember being disappointed about that. The kids at my school all dressed like shyt. But I digress.
I am particularly proud of the third piece here. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before but I have an extreme fear of zombies. I don’t know why. They just freak me out. Thriller gives me nightmares. I can’t play Resident Evil past the first stage. And Dawn of the Dead is probably one of the most disturbing things I’ve ever seen.
So, you’ll see why I was a little worried about drawing zombies for the commission. What saved me was that they’re supposed to be hot. So I figured, perfect– I don’t have to draw eyes hanging out of their sockets or exposed brain or anything. haha.
In this illustration, you’ll be interested to know that trying to make a room appear “dirty” was far more difficult for me than I was expecting. I tweaked it for days. Hopefully, the idea came across. This is supposed to be one really skankatacious motel.
Also, I’m proud to announce that this drawing, along with 15 of my other favorite pieces, is up for sale as a limited edition print. Visit Shop.Anti-Heroes.Net to get your mitts on them!
So I’ve picked my 10 favorite strips for you guys to read. Since some of them are really specific to my high school, I’ll clarify some of the jokes for ya.
On this next one, the “caf-card” was what we used to get food at the cafeteria. I coined that term, btw.
This next one was a bit of a hit, so I kinda repeated the same joke a few months later.
And with this next one– the story was, one day, the ceiling caved in due to the weight of some raccoons that had nested there. It was a temporary building, and I think the raccoon fiasco was what got the administration really on-the-ball about building the permanent space. Sadly, I graduated before it was finished. But raccoon day will go down in history as the highlight of my high school career. Those fuckers are huge!
