The #1 Sylvester Stallone Fan Site in the World!
Jon Riggle is back, this time with his take on Sly from The Expendables. Jon is an illustrator and photographer. He also created the Sci-Fi comic strip Sonic Jack and is available for commissions. You can see more of Jon’s art here and here.
Thanks to Jon and John Beatty for the gift.
It couldn’t be more appropriate [since there were several pieces about Rocky and the Oscars in this week’s update] that we have Rocky by Dave Wachter for this week’s Stallone art. Dave’s work has appeared on the SZ before with his riff on Sly from Paradise Alley.
After the recent earthquake in Haiti, Dave offered everyone who made a donation to Doctors Without Borders to aide earthquake victims in Haiti a free sketch. The piece about is what I got for my donation. You can see what others selected, and more of Dave’s art by heading over to his website.
Thanks to Dave for my great sketch as well as his efforts to help the people in Haiti.
Mike Torrance pencils, inks and colors. Mike regular posts a sketchcard idea contest at Retro Cowboy Productions and his Deviant Art site. Here’s how it works, Mike posts a subject and the first one to make request which fits the theme is the winner! This is the second time I’ve won [the theme this time: 80’s Action Heroes — the first time I won: Detectives].
Mike is available for commissions and his prices are very reasonable. Check him out.
This week we have Casey Jones’ take on Sly as Rocky. This was done last year when Casey was sketching for charity at MegaCon. It’s my second and hopefully not last piece from Casey who always does great work. Check out the label on Rocky’s gloves for an additional bonus. You can see more of Casey’s art here and here.
Today’s piece is Jon Riggle’s take on Sly as Jack Carter from Get Carter. Jon is an illustrator and photographer. He also created the Sci-Fi comic strip Sonic Jack and is available for commissions. You can see more of Jon’s art here and here.
Thanks to Jon and John Beatty for the gift.
This week we have Sly as Rambo by Tom Hodges. I discovered Tom’s art through his DA site and then last August, Tom had a 24 Hour Draw-A-Thon live on UStream. I got on board and commissioned a sketch of Jack Carter and this Rambo. Tom still draws regularly on UStream and it’s always fun watching him go at it.
Derek Fridolfs offers a free headsketch with every sketchbook purchased through his website. I own three pieces by Derek and am looking forward to more. I picked up Derek’s take on Sly as Cosmo Carboni from “Paradise Alley” at last year’s Heroes Con.
Dick Giordano, the comics legend is back! During his fifty plus years in the biz he’s done everything from ink all the greats (including himself) to serve as Editor-in-Chief of DC Comics, to co-founding his own comic company.
I had the good fortune to pick up six model sheet headsketches of Sly that Mr. Giodano did before starting work on DC Comics adaptation of “Demolition Man”. This is the sixth. To see all of the other headsketches, click here.
Today’s piece is Jon Riggle’s take on Sly as Freddy from “Cop Land”. Jon is an illustrator and photographer. He also created the Sci-Fi comic strip Sonic Jack and is available for commissions. You can see more of Jon’s art here and here.
Thanks to Jon for the bang-up job and John Beatty for the gift.
This week we have Jeremy Treece’s take on Sly as “Machine Gun” Joe from “Death Race 2000”. This sketchcard was gifted to me by a StalloneZone fan [LittleJohn312] and arrived in my mail unannounced. I really like what Jeremy did and hope to get more work from him in the future. Jeremy does a live Ustream artcast which you can learn more about here. You can also see more of his art here.
Thanks to LittleJohn312 and Jeremy for a great surprise!
