The Green Lantern

GREEN LANTERN
Several months ago, I was asked to do a Green Lantern piece for DC Comics.


I'll let the images speak for themselves, but essentially I was trying to create an "epic" sort of poster of Hal Jordan and his story. The biggest challenge was making the entire scene "read" properly with all the different elements going on. The Star Wars look of this piece is not unintentional.


One difference with this illustration from most others is that the initial drawing was done on several pieces of tracing paper that I cut up and pieced together, mostly just to make subtle changes to the composition before inking it. Over all, it was a ton of fun to draw.
