Awesome Ross Campbell Sketches!

duhril · 02-14-2010, 07:25 AM

I just thought I would let everyone know that over on Ross Campbell's blog http://mooncalfe.livejournal.com/ that he has been posting some pretty awsome TMNT sketches. I love this attached Casey in particular. It sounds like he is making up a fan comic as well, which is cool. I love the covers he did for the Raphael: Bad Moon Rising mini.

Hey, thanks for pointing these out, they are awesome! Must say I like his Tokka and Triceraton ones best. Frickin' great!

Also, I added the link to his livejournal page on the sites and blogs thread...

I found his work a really long time ago, before he got involved with the Turtles, and he had a couple sketches on his site that I loved. I've read most of his comics since then, and he's pretty good.

I remember reading that he was gonna have a full Tales issue. It's very sad that this never happened.

Yes, the Tokka is pretty sick..

Thanks for the link to his blog. I really dig his style. Those cover he did for Bad Moon Rising were pretty cool, so to see him do more TMNT stuff is awesome.

I love the little quotes he titled each drawing with.

Zog and the movie Shredder were sick.

While his Ninja Turtle stuff rocks, as a hardcore horror movie fan, I'm more thrilled at his "It's Alive", "Critters" and "The Fly" fanart.

His Casey is actually my least favorite one on there. Those are neat but I think his style works better for covers. I couldn't see a whole comic drawn like working. Maybe if it was in black and white. His color scheme is too in your face.

I would love to see a TMNT comic done in that style! But, with that being unlikely, these sketches are really cool! I always love it when the Turtles seem... unpolished.

I'll agree with that, but I still would have rather seen him take a stab at one ish as a change of pace from Lawson for the 38th time.
