Description
Another "Maxwell Silver Hammer" drawing I did recently. It's based on a story I came up with for 1992 where Aaron tries out for the Walter Mondale Senior High basketball team, desperate to disprove the title of a certain Wesley Snipes/Woody Harrelson film that was out around that time. Joel sits on the sidelines for support...and to log a few more game play hours on "Double Dragon II".Related content

I love how you place these things in the late 1980s and early 1990s, that was a wonderful time in my life growing up.

This is great. Arron's expression makes me laugh every time I look at it.
Is the pose parodying a famous basketball shot?
Or is it just a standard throw? It looks familiar to me, is why I ask.

Just your standard jump shot. I used a photo from an issue of Disney Adventures as reference.

True, we can't jump...but as you mentioned, we CAN draw!
I think this is my fave Maxwell drawing here; great touch of detail and realism, right down to the tongue thing - ya'know, when you're really concentrating on something hard...

A curse we have, normally, when it comes to basket ball.

Wow, that's your most realistic pose yet. I envy it very much....

I used photo reference. It tends to help out a lot when you're going for realism.

This picture's nice. You got a good background, a good shot.
And the shoes were well drawn too!
