Description Well let's say inked, because the whole "inking" part was done in Adobe Illustrator

Used a lot reference from Ed Benes and his drawings of Gambit.
Changed his face a bit, but it still bug's me, he just don't look like Gambit
Oh well, hope ya'll like it

Cheers!

Beautifully done. I used to collect tons of Rogue and Gambit stuff, and I always kinda liked the way Weiringo drew Gambit. Dunno why.

Thank you
I only read one issue of Gambit , almos all I know about that caracter is what I've read from internet.

hernameisrio In reply to Micha81 [2006-11-07 17:51:42 +0000 UTC]

He's a great character -- very popular over here. He was REALLY popular back in the mid to late 1990s when he and Rogue were the "it" couple in comics.

If all you've read is one issue and stuff from the internet, then I think your picture of him is extra good!

Micha81 In reply to hernameisrio [2006-11-08 06:21:06 +0000 UTC]

heh, you'll be suprised what I've never read. Basicly I can tell that I did read ultimate spider-man and ultimate x-men till issue 23, hahaha, then they stopped publishing them over here, ok, three issues of Astonishing x-men, one of Gambit, aaaaand I think I've read a few Hulk comics too.
I did by some issues of Hellboy a few days ago
All in all Serbia is a very poor country when it comes to comics, some things are going better lately, some guy has buyed the rights for printing graphic novels of DC/Vertigo, so yay for me, but still not enough

I allready bought a bunch of them, Sin City, Complete Watchmen, Dark Knight Returns, Preacher, Sandman, V for Vendetta, Hellblazer - Original Sins, and some more, I was so happy when I saw that finally someone had the B**** to publish graphic novels here, it took a lot of courage to do that here.

hernameisrio In reply to Micha81 [2006-11-10 01:23:14 +0000 UTC]

Why did it require so much effort to do? Are there laws against it? I must admit, I'm not well versed in Serbian regulations. Would you mind very much telling me?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Micha81 In reply to hernameisrio [2006-11-10 08:14:46 +0000 UTC]

No there isn't any laws against comics, it's jus, well, the history of my country in short words is: War, and fucked up political situations.
At some point our cultural level was at it's lowest form, and wen it comes to comics, well people think of them as "only for children" stuff.
For a long time any effort to publish some type of comics was worthless, cause no one would by them.
Back when I was kid there were a lot of comics published, but that lasted, ummm, well until i turned out 12, and then, nothing, just a few issues of some comic and then, nothing again.
Back when I was a REALLY little boy (a little baby ) and before that, Serbia (or in that time Yugoslavia) was a pretty ritch country when it comes to comics(well when it comes to everything, but we are talking about comics here), and we had some really great Europian artists published here, but when war started and when Yugoslavia was divided by war, everything stopped, that was in 1990 and it laster for 10 years, and that 10 years, well we went back in time 50 years.
This would turn in a really big commen if I continue to write anyways, things are going for better for some things, but it requires a loooooonnnngg time to get people and country back to the right way.

Hmm. Yes, I was aware of what had been going on in your area, and I wondered if war and upheaval had been a problem for you. I'm glad things are starting to get back on track for you guys.

Vacation-Avenger [2006-11-06 03:25:42 +0000 UTC]

perhaps his face should be a little longer, and I wonder, do you hand draw these and then livetrace them in Illustrator?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Micha81 In reply to Vacation-Avenger [2006-11-06 07:39:29 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, first I draw them and then trace them. Here is the pencil drawing of Gambit: [link]

Here's another one - Drawing: [link]

Vectorized: [link]

Basicly I do them in illustrator because I don't have much time to ink them by hand, this way is a lot quicker (at least for me) and it's a lot easier to fix something if you screw up

Vacation-Avenger In reply to Micha81 [2006-11-07 01:15:02 +0000 UTC]

Yea I've been playing with illustrator in my graphic arts class, that trace comes in handy, but I'm a little dissapointed that it takes all the work out of vectoring a full color picture, any one woth cs can do it now.

Micha81 In reply to Vacation-Avenger [2006-11-07 08:26:39 +0000 UTC]

??? what is trace, I do it with a mouse and a pen tool in illustrator.
"it takes all the work out of vectoring a full color picture, any one woth cs can do it now."
???, again i don't think i get it
