Zealot

This is one of the sketchbook drawings I scanned and provided to Martin for the potential WonderCon book him and Joff may be doing.

  1. Hey Josh, glad to see you up and posting buddy. I really dig Zealot's cute face, a lot younger than usual... which actually peaks my interest in her character a little more than the standard Zealot. A couple things you may want to watch are idle hands (drop a sword or another gun in there), locked joints(legs a little to rigid), and her gun hand seems a little too posed.

  2. Thanks for the feedback mane, all good and valid points. Looking at the pic, the leg on the left-side bugs me becuz I got too thick on the inside line, just above her knee.

    Also, using the internet, I could not find any reference for how that back-pack looks/works. So it's kind just there. Makes me want to break open my long-comic-boxes to see if I can find an issue and see what's going with that.

    I still recall a drawing that Martin did for Larry back in the day and it always seemed to capture her character -- maybe even better than how Jim Lee usually drew her.

    At the time I was doing this, I had just finished watching some episodes of "Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig" and the Martin-Larry-Zealot sketch came to mind.

  3. So you other guys could see them, I posted Khari's crit sketches of Zealot on my Deviant Art account:
