Oil Painting - Midterm Roundup

While I'm on a roll, here's a pile of stuff from my Oil Painting class, my very first time working in oils, for the Academy of Art University graduate program.

Clothed Figure Drawing - Midterm Roundup

Holy crap, I haven't posted since January (it's all Facebook's fault, it's easier there).  Here is a huge pile of the drawings I've done for my Clothed Figure Drawings class so far this semester, all compressed charcoal on newsprint. (except the yellow ones, those are a portable Manila sketchbook)

Wacom... SMASH! (Hulk & Loki for Comic Con 2013)

I've been pounding on this thing for weeks... I have a few more pieces planned to get done and printed before the Denver Comic Con (http://www.denvercomiccon.com/2013/dustin-resch/ ) but this is the most ambitious, and the one that was the toughest to get through (cityscapes are not my friend).  I'm pretty thrilled with the final result, and it's printing really nicely too.  Prints will be for sale at the convention!
  Enjoy!

UPDATE:  a quick process GIF to see some of the steps:
