Kid Heroes Iron Boy

Kid Heroes is a fun series of pieces I put together for fun and to show off a lighter side to my hero illustration side.  They were also fun for kids and fans who requested certain characters here and there.

Fantastic Swords

Fantastic Swords!  As a child of the 80's I often have felt the need to draw on that rich childhood both figuratively and literally.  I thought it would be really cool to assemble some of my favorite 80's heroes all together on a fake comic book cover.  It just so happened that the 80's was rife with sword bearing heroes!  ...

Love is a Battlefield

L ove is a Battlefield.  The Baroness.  I think every little boy had a bit of a crush on Cobra's the Baroness.  She was the bad girl.  She had an accent and cool weapons.  I thought I had to try and capture some of that coolness and imagine her being played by the 80's own Cindy Crawford. I still need ...

The Dreams in Which I’m Dying

T he Dreams in Which I'm Dying are the best I've ever had.  Mad world.  That song just seems to fit the Joker's personality so well.  I think this was the third piece I did in the crazy 80's series.  I was still learning so much and having so much fun at the same time.  Combining characters and illustration and ...

Hungry Like the Wolf

A nd I'm Hungry Like the Wolf!  I wanted to try and do an anime figure in my crazy 80's style.  I also wanted to do a girl.  So of course, the first thing that came to mind was Princess Mononoke.  It was fun to do.  The song seemed to fit perfectly and it's always fun to draw crazy creatures ...

I Want to Know What Love Is

I Want to Know What Love Is.  This is one of my very first 80's album homage pieces.  I did it before I was really pairing up punny song titles to the characters.  As such, I just thought this would be a funny song to think of along with the Shredder.  I imagined him after a hard day of being ...

It’s the Eye of the Tiger

It's the Eye of the Tiger.  It's the thrill of the fight.  Another He-Man homage piece.  I can't help myself.  I've done a ton.  Tigers have always been my favorite animal and green has always been my favorite color.  He-Man gave me a rideable fierce warrior green tiger.  I was defenseless.  Of course I was gonna love this thing till ...

You Gotta Fight For Your Right to Party!

You've Gotta Fight.  For Your Right.  To Paaaaaaaaaarty!  Gremlins.  What more need be said?  I actually had a lot of people requesting that I do a gremlins themed homage to the 80's.  I had to do it.  The 80's compelled me to.  This is the fun result.  Someday I'll have to do a companion Gizmo piece.

I’ll Stop the World and Melt With You

I'll Stop the World and Melt With You.  I've always loved the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.  It was such a perfect moment in Ghostbusters, so creative and unexpected.  To have a childhood wonder turned into a nightmare.  He became a symbol of the 80's and still has quite a following today. He just looks so delicious, especially toasted and slapped between ...
