A Sound of Thunder. Rapidograph. 8.5 x 11. 1965. An illustration from Ray Bradbury's short story, A Sound of Thunder. I was a big Bradbury fan back in the day and still am. So I was inspired to do a drawing of one of his well known stories.

@cromer_david Still working on that. :-D

@WalterSimonson Hey Walt can you tell me when the new Ragnarok comes out?

The Battle of Muspelheim. Fudenosuke Brush Pens, and a little ProWhite here and there. 61.5 x 41.75. 2025. This is likely the final post for this piece. I was able to get a scan of the entire drawing. I had to down res it in order for it to post. So we'll see it comes out.

@DanOrgill1 Probably not for me to decide. :-D

@WalterSimonson Walt, is this your Magnum Opus of images?

@deanhaspiel LOL. With my back, I wouldn't be able to get upright again. ;-)

@WalterSimonson Take a 10-story bow. BRAVO.

For those who can't manage a drawing and want to help, :-) here's the GoFundMe link. gofundme.com/f/support-rees…

Reese has Crohn's disease pretty badly and there's a GoFundMe up for him. I'm hoping that auctioning this drawing will also help raise a few bucks for his care. Exactly how it'll be sold is up to Marc & Shelly so when I know, I'll post about it.

Thor on Bifrost with Asgard in the background. Brush, Hunt 102 crow quill, India ink, Tombow Fudenosuke Brush Pens and Pentel Presto Jumbo Correction Pen. 11 x 17. 2025. Drawing to help raise money for Reese Nathan, Marc and Shelly Nathan's son, of the Baltimore Comic Con.

...sitting as the young man found him in a dusty room in a tall building. One of my first really finished drawings. Also the first drawing I ever sold. :-)

An illustration from By the Waters of Babylon, a short story by Stephen Vincent Benét. Rapidograph. 8.5 x 11. 1965. It's a post-apocalypse tale about a young man’s exploration of a ruined city of gods and his confrontation with one of inhabitants. The drawing depicts that god.

The Battle of Muspelheim, lower left corner. Fudenosuke Brush Pen hard tip. 2025. I finished the Big Drawing yesterday afternoon by signing it. The date's a little unusual for me as I've never posted the starting and finishing dates of a drawing before. Glad it's done.

@Teflon93Wins 1972. :-)

@WalterSimonson I was this years old when I learned you were a RISD kid. Thayer Street shout out!

Finally unearthed tonight months after our move. The ink bottle holder my Dad made for me very early in my career, possibly when I was still at RISD. I couldn't be more delighted!! :-D

@ronmarz I'm grinning ear to ear. Been looking for it for months and kind of resigned to just stumbling across it by accident. :-D

@WalterSimonson Wow. Imagining the smile on your face put a smile on my face.
