WULFGARRR!

Ballpoint pen, ink, and watercolor on watercolor paper

Quick color sketch from my favorite scene of one of my favorite movies, Nighthawks. It's got Sly Stallone and Billy Dee Williams matching wits with international terrorist 'Wulfgar' played by Rutger Hauer. It's a neat little crackerjack thriller lost in the shuffle of films of the early 1980s. - AJ

my favorite of your work. Love the widescreen format, and I always love expressions. Well done.

Thanks, Steve. There is an ulterior motive to this as well. I'm really getting into looser linework for my storytelling.
It felt really good and direct.
Just put it down and move on.

I told Dwight that I'm going to do a couple more of these to get my bearings. But over the next two weeks, you'll be seeing quite a few changes in my work and this blog.

Yeah dude as I told you before this is definitely the next step in your evolution, I'm excited by what you come up with next. I got 1st dibs on ANY Blade Runner Joints you do!
