Ben Dewey recently attended the Zoo with his visiting family. Some of the animals held still and some were not as amenable to his sketching. As Ben says “The nice thing about sketching live animals is that you get the chance to work on both capturing information as it presents itself and using the internal modeling tools you need to develop as a comic artist.”
Continuing this week’s showcase of Archie Covers done by Periscope members for the Hero Initiative. The Hero Initiative is a charity providing aid to comics legends who find themselves in need. Today we’ve got Ben Dewey’s over-the-top interpretation of Josie and the Pussycats. Can an Archie cover rock any harder? No. No it cannot. Click to make enormous.
Ben Dewey inking “Blighter”, written by Jeff Parker for Dark Horse Presents. It’s free, go read it.
We’ve been working quite a bit with Ben Dewey, a local artist you probably haven’t heard of yet, but you will. He’s terrific. Besides being a badass cartoonist, Ben’s also a working musician. Here he is playing with Portland country favorites Emily Herring & Henpecked. Ben’s solo starts at around 1:15. |
