Thanks I think back when I drew that piece, most of the work was done primarily on the weekends since I still had a day job. Three or four weekends probably.

And Thanks for all the s and ! Much appreciated

Oh wow! *rubs eyes, blinks, looks again* I honestly don't know what to say about this! There's so much emotion here and all that black ooze looks so natural. Fantastic job! What did you use to color this? I do I spy sharp teeth?

This piece was done using graphite pencils (2H thru 8B I think) on hot press watercolor paper.

Whoa. Nice job with the details of the web-like body of the Venom parasite overcoming the victim's body. I bet I would suck majorly if I tried to do this myself.

think I might just want to favorite this one.

I love this drawing!

Topher Grace was suprisingly awesome as Venom, and this was probably his best moment.

I liked him too - I just wish the movie execs would've set Venom as the sole villain in a Spiderman movie.

Thanks! I drew the pic mainly because I wasn't satisfied with the 'teaser' wallpaper that Sony released for the upcoming movie. I have my fingers crossed that movie Venom won't disappoint in May. Thanks for the !

I heart Topher. I can not WAIT for this movie! I design merch and we just done some Spidie 3 pens and notepads. *jumps up and down in excitement*

ahem

I love your drawing it's awesome. I wanna draw Topher at some point... I'm busy with David Tennant right now.

Thanks for the ! Much appreciated. I'm also looking forward to Spiderman 3 this summer; hopefully it will redeem my wavered faith in the comic book movie adaptations lately.

Congrats on getting the opportunity to design Spidey 3 merchandise !

Since you're a graphic designer by trade, may I ask where you went to school? I'm looking to return for some sort of art degree and right now I'm open to all possibilities.

David Tennant is awesome - I only wish that the stateside release of Doctor Who DVDs was less expensive. "Spooks" too.

stagedoor-jenny In reply to ultra-seven [2007-03-08 20:04:00 +0000 UTC]

You are welcome!

Yeah it's pretty cool designing merch but they never go with the best ideas which bums me out. There is some wicked Spidey stuff been designed. Probably never get made...
If you see anyone wearing those Borat swim suits though, then they came from us! Doing Shrek 3 aat the moment. Sweet.

Anyway.. I went to some crappy collage in Salisbury, England (by no means the best in UK) and graduated 1997. but the job of choice really comes from opportunity. I suggest that you go anywhere in order to get your qualification (doesn't matter if it's a good collage, work experience is more important than collage), and then work at getting into the places which are cool once you have left. The complany I work for is small and all they did was advertise in the Design Week mag.. I applied and now I been there for nearly 3 years! Lucky really. My next ideal job is to work designing movie posters, style guides and DVDs so I hope to move to that area soon.

I hope you get into a cool school for graphics and continue doing what you are doing. Your drawing skills are awesome!

Thank you very much for the reply! It's of ENORMOUS help. My best friend had been telling me to ask whether it's a matter of where you went to school vs. job experiences/portfolio talent in the graphic arts/design industry. I'm aiming for a Dec. 1 deadline this year for submitting my portfolio (15-35 pieces) to the school I hope will accept me; if not, then the backup plan is to get into my much cheaper second choice.

Again, SOOOO jealous ! -- your job description is why I want to go back and not be stuck in corporate cube prison until I retire or go nuts.

9 months, at least 9 more pieces to go -- if it kills me I'll get it done

If you look to your right real close, I think you can see the whole '70s show cast. lol. Cool drawing dude. Can't wait for the movie!

LOL. It would be a funny parody if Fez from 'That 70s Show' got cast as [insert name of any Spidey villain]. I'm looking forward to Spidey 3 as well.
