OK, so after working up the courage, I've decided to post a few things. These were all hand drawn with a mouse in MS Paint. No fancy tablet for this boy.(I have since gotten a tablet, and have yet to learn how to use it.) You'll notice the very occassional spray paint effect or texture effect, those were done with the airbrush tool in Paintshop Pro. And in some cases you will see that I blended some elements from different pics together.

Anyway. Enough of that. Here we go. Be kind.

First up, some Watchmen pieces:













And one of my all time favorites, Howard Chaykin's American Flagg!



Batman:





Spidey:



And something that I like to think of as an Elseworlds story I would like to see:


So there you have it. One of these day's I'm going to work on learning to use that tablet. Oh, and Photoshop too.

I have nightmares about trying to do things like that with a mouse. If my apartment caught fire, the first thing I'd lunge for is my Wacom tablet.

Chris, I love the one of Spidey in the spotlight. Cool.

The fact that you did those with a mouse in MS Paint is damn impressive. Not that I can draw to begin with, but trying to do so with a mouse, damn, that's a nightmare!

I like that Comedian. He looks like a ruffian.

I could do better. If I had talent anyway.

Seriously, great job! Very impressive.

VERY nice work, Chris!!!!

Very impressive. Doesn't look like you need to learn to use a tablet or Photoshop. Very nice.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the compliments. I really do.

Amazing.....I don't think I can draw that good with a pencil!

And funny.......YOU'RE the guy that did that Rorschach?!?!
I've had a similar version of that 1st pic on my harddrive for a couple of years.....small world aint it!!

Did you pick it up off Comics2Film.com? That's where I posted it originally. It was a bit different though.

Maybe so.......he was standing in front of a solid brick wall, no cityscape.
('course now I can't find it to look at it)

It's still in the gallery at comics2film.com.
Just search the gallery by artist. I posted under iamspartachris.

i hate you. jk. i love you. and i'm glad you finally posted these!!! you totally rock! queer.

This is the original Rorschach piece I posted a few years back. This the one you were talking about Hugh?

Yes!
And oddly enough, I finally found it amongs my files!

Here's a quickie I did in about 10 minutes in MS Paint. (Still no tablet):



And the following are just some elements of the above pics in various stages.

Bumping this because I'm kind of proud of these.

You should be. These are über-cool. I'm highly impressed.

Oooooooo! Chris makes cool stuff!

In his pants.

It's what I do.

very nice !
