I did this one a while ago actually -when I had a drawing tablet. It's just a sketch of the human head basically, but he kind of looks like a blind oracle.
Hi! I'm Andrew Von Dinklage ("Dink" for short) and I'm a comic pencil artist. That's a bit of an over-statement because I haven't done any regular drawing in years (more like decades). I'm amazed at the awesome comic artists out there and seeing there work has inspired me to get back into it. I'm a big fan of Jim Lee, Neal Adams and Jack Kirby as well as many others. I hope you like my work.

Having a go at a Marvel Spider-man Cover
Ok, so I've always wanted to do a comic book cover. A few days ago I had a crack at a Spider-man Iceman issue that I have at home. It's all pencils and I may change the "Iceman" figure a bit, but it's mostly how I want it.
My backgrounds were never anything special (as you can see), but I will be working on them from now on. And I will be working on my, uh...(oh God...) ... inking too! Actually I'm working on lots of things (um, composition, proportion, perspective... all those handy little things that my teacher in school told me about and I didn't listen to because I thought that art had nothing to do with comic art!)
So any pro artists looking at this will have to forgive me for my mistakes. When I say I'm self-taught, I mean it.

Drawing again!
Well, I'm drawing again. It's been a LONG time, believe me. I'll stick with what I know best for now and that's (you guessed it) - SUPERHEROES!!! So here's a sketch I did of the irresistibly cute, Rogue.
I'll have to check some recent comics to make sure that that's still her uniform, etc. I'll probably do a few supers for starters, and then after that, some comic heroes and then maybe some super-heroes and then...
Anyway, I'm Andrew Von Dinklage and I'm a (very rusty and long-time out-of-practice) comic artist.
