Matthew Warlick’s Jack Carter
Matthew Warlick is a studio mate of my buddy Evan Bryce. Matthew is also freelance illustrator, art director and comic book artist based in Dallas, Texas. Matthew contacted me to say that he’d been talking to Evan and wanted to work up a Stallone sketch for the SZ. We exchanged a couple of e-mails and soon enough, Matthew sent in his very, very cool take on Jack Carter.
How could it get any better than that, you ask? And I’m glad you did because Matthew created a video of himself inking the piece. I love the art and the video is the icing on the cake. You can check it out here. You can also see more of Matthew’s art at his website and artblog.
BIG THANKS to Matthew for sharing his talents and to Evan for talking up the SZ. Hopefully we’ll see more from Matthew in the future!
Dan Panosian’s Jack Carter
Dan Panosian gifted me with this Jack Carter drawing at the recent FX Show. Dan is a Stallone fan and decided on “Get Carter” with no prompting from me. I love Dan’s work, so to get a piece from him was a thrill. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.
Check out more of Dan’s art here and here. Plan to spend some time, because everything he draws is worth a look!
Derek Fridolf’s “Jack Carter”
Derek Fridolfs offers a free headsketch with every sketchbook purchased through his website. I own two pieces by Derek and am looking forward to more. You can check out Derek’s work here.
Rourke Credits Sly
Mickey Rourke, who is flying high now with universally great reviews for his performance in “The Wrestler,” went through a long period when he couldn’t get movie work. In an interview with BlackBook.com, Rourke credits Sly with giving him a helping hand back into the business:
“Stallone saw me in a restaurant eating one night, where I could hardly pay for my ******* spaghetti, and put me in Get Carter.”
