Logo Inspiration: Comic Characters

guest — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 05:52:56 +0000

Everyone likes superheroes and other comic book characters. There is a plethora of stories and with subjects ranging from humor to the morbid. Comic books are deeply rooted in global culture, so that today we have several film adaptations of great box office.

Something that is very interesting is when we see superheroes as brands, some of them are easily identifiable by color and shapes. I usually say that the most famous are precisely those that are most remembered. So I decided to make a selection with the logos of super heroes that I thought were the most important and also my favorites. Hope you enjoy it.

Incredible Illustrations by Mitch & Elizabeth

I am a huge admirer of comic book art work with being brought up around them from a young age. I am always on the look out from creative and inspirational work and the work being showcased is just that! Mitch (mbreitweiser) and his wife Elizabeth (dismang) both work side by side producing fantastic work.

A little bit about Mitch & Elizabeth

I've been drawing exclusively for Marvel since 2006. I've been really fortunate to be on some really great projects including, Ultimate Fantastic Four, Captain America: The Chosen, Sub Mariner 70th Anniversary Special (Which also featured the last work of the late Al Williamson (a personal hero of mine)), and a handful of other great cover and interior projects.

My most recent book on the shelf was Captain America # 607 with Ed Brubaker and Butch Guice. I also have a four issue mini series coming out in September called "Captain America: Patriot." it's beautifully written by Karl Kessel, and will be the first full mini series colored by my wife, Bettie.

Bettie has also been the colorist for the AWESOME Agents of Atlas series over artist, Gabriel Hardman. She'll also be following him onto his run on The Hulk this fall!

Beautiful Watercolor Illustrations of Super Heroes and Villains

PauloGabriel — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 04:00:53 +0000

I've probably said it before, but watercolor is definetely one of the greatest techniques of painting there is! It's truly incredible what a good illustration will do with it... so I thought it would be cool to find some watercolor illustrations of Super heroes and villains.

And as usual, I started looking for some cool illustrations at DeviantART, and found a whole bunch of sweet, beautiful illustrations, and they're listed below! The colors give each illustration a particular feeling, a single mood for every and each one, and that's exactly what I found fantastic about it. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy these as much as I did... and please, don't forget to give some love to each artist by visiting their galleries!! There are much more great art at their galleries. Cheers. ;)
