DC Hates Girls


This is one of my favorites of the new Alphababes I've done recently.

Initially for R, I drew Raven (from the Teen Titans), but misplaced it on my fireplace mantle. I'm glad that the character got some popularity from the Teen Titans cartoon, but having seen the "New 52" Raven, I just have to face palm.

She was such a good path and had some fans who really liked her, why such a strong redesign? Oh yeah, DC hates girls.

Alf: before & after (kinda)

I was messing around with a blue line sketch of Alf for my son. Added some ink on Saturday morning. He liked it alright, but his immediate response? "Alf is brown...why did you draw him black?" Gotta love three year old honesty!

Big Dog's Studio Facebook page is live!

Head over and check it out! (PLEASE!)


I'm hoping to do a daily feature on the art that has appeared in our sketchbooks...one from each artist, rotating daily.  I'm also hoping to feature facebook pages and regular websites of some of our friends and the people that inspire us to do what we do.

I'm still kicking the tires, so please overlook any shortcomings.  But any and all tips, tricks, advice and other feedback are ALWAYS appreciated!  You can gmail me here: BigDogsStudio.

Thanks and hope to see you here and over on the facebook page!

Brandon/Big Dog

ps - Volume 7 of the sketchbook will be coming your way soon!
