    George RR Martin finishes new book – 2016

    1-4-17--Bearman-Cartoons-George-RR-Martin-wrote-2016

    George RR Martin, the author of the Game of Thrones series, is known not to be sentimental about leading characters in his books.  In fact he is known to kill off a few of your favorites regularly.  Which got me thinking.  With all the celebrity deaths in 2016, did good old George write that book?

    Hoping 2017 is a good year for all of you (and celebrities).

  • Game of Thrones Poster – The Fox and the Hound

    Game of Thrones Poster – The Fox and the Hound

    This Game of Thrones Poster that parodies the HBO series. came about last week based on a five minute quick caricature of The Hound from the series.

    I liked it so much that I thought I should color it.  So 5 minutes turned into a five hour project to give you “The Fox and The Hound”  Imagine if Disney bought HBO.  This is what you might see in the promotional poster.

    Obviously the Fox is Daenerys Targaryen portrayed by Emilia Clarke and the Hound is Sandor Clegane who is better known as the Hound (duh!).  He is masterfully played by Rory McCann.  I have mentioned before that typically I am not into fantasy realm movies/shows like the Hobbit or Lord of the Rings but this one has me hooked.  Now if they could get other good shows to make it worth paying the rest of the year like Showtime.

  • Game of Clones – Parody Mashup of Star Wars and Game of Thrones

    Game of Clones – Parody Mashup of Star Wars and Game of Thrones

    Bearman Cartoons Parody Game of Thrones and Star Wars

     

    Next week is the start of the 4th season of HBO’s Game of Thrones.  I am typically not a fan of this type of genre.  Thought the Hobbit was OK and didn’t like any of the Lord of the Rings.  Just not my style.  Yet something attracted me to Game of Thrones that made me a fan.  And of course I always loved Star Wars so “Game of Clones” was a perfect parody mash-up of Yoda sitting on a throne of Clonetroopers (as opposed to Stormtrooper) helmets and Light Sabers.  True fan boys will probably tell me I was off on one or the other but I claim artistic license.

    From start to finish this took approximately 6-7 hours over two nights.  One of my most ambitious art projects to date.  An hour was just sketching different ideas of what Yoda would be sitting on.  Had I known what I was getting into when I started I wouldn’t have.  But lucky for you I finished.  🙂

    So here is my continuing efforts at trying new things related to drawing. This is my caricature version of Peter Dinklage, known to Game of Thrones Fans as Tyrion Lannister. You can see the beginnings as a simple pencil sketch, then I added watercolor and ink to the image and finally pulled it all into Photoshop to color it.

    This is probably the longest I have ever worked on one image, only because I am learning some new techniques as I go. Might tweak the color some more but here is where it stands now.
