I've recently been sucked into the "HellBoy" universe. The movies are awesome enough, but the comic books really grabbed my attention. I love Mike Mignola's art style and his use of old myths.
I have really grown to like the character Liz Sherman and I thought it was about time I tried my hand at drawing her. This pic is HEAVILY influenced by Mignola's style of using heavy shadows. On one hand, it adds a great feel to the characters and the comic as a whole, but on the other hand, lots of details are lost, which can be a good or a bad thing (if you're lazy, like me, this is a good thing). This was actually harder to make than I though it was. Nonetheless, I am pretty damned proud of it.
P.S. I really wish they would make B.P.R.D. underwears like this.
