Below are some other recent drawings I did on the Computers Club Drawing Society blog; they are thumbnails, not the full-sized versions.
Top to bottom, left to right:
Statuary
Bird of Prey (D-7 Class)
After Jim Steranko
Map of the Island
Flagellant
After Ray Parker
The moire patterns in the Bird of Prey and Flagellant thumbs are resizing artifacts but I kind of like them.
From my CCDS page. The source is a nascent/wannabe/lesser-known meme called "the bird" or "bird.jpg" Sterling Crispin did the first painted version.
This bird image has some internet juice, mostly as an avatar. Dump.fm and Moot's former site have helped.
The bird is a Common Grackle; related to the Great-Tailed Grackle, which has a hideous call [YouTube] that sounds like the word "grackle" but with extra consonants, whistles, and sounds beyond the range of human hearing.
Hat tips GucciSoFlosy, carjackcker, frederick, melipone, maryrachel, maxlabor, arjununcle and others.

Interior 1 is ruffling some decorator sensibilities. [drawing deleted from CCDS - the comments by "paul" were so stupid they were making me vomit]
Loosely inspired by Bertrand Lavier.
OK, large self-plug:
Hope you can come for this, if you are in the NYC vicinity. Sorry about the rain--the gods do not like animated GIFs either.
