Black Beetles - Part 4

(part 3 being Simon's realistic take at our pulp masked hero I posted a couple of days ago).
This morning I woke up to find this beutiful rendition of the Black Beetle by the supertalented - and all around swell guy - Evan "Doc" Shaner.

Evan was already kind enough to send me, some time ago, a beutiful drawing depicting The Shadow, Green Hornet, and the Spider, a pulp trinity if you wish ;), (and he drew a Zorro on the envelope to make it even sweeter), so I was super happy to see him taking a stab at BB and the Kara Bocek's trio of baddies.
You can see more of Evan's beutiful work here.

Thank you, Evan, I owe you a few more drinks :)

Cheers,
Francesco

The Ole Spirit

Hi guys,

This is a little sketch of the Spirit I did on the back of my Chiaroscuro sketchbook as part of a little art trade with the good and talented Evan Shaner (his blog). In return he drew me the holy trinity of Pulp: The SHadow, Green Hornet, and the SPider. 3 vs 1... clearly Evan won this one ;) (good for me in this case ;))
Click on the image to see it with some colors I just put on it this morning.

Cheers,
Francesco
