golden age blast from the past golden age blast from the past by matt bennett kirk wescom thursday january 31 2008 tenth post it s been a year so i guess starting a blog that long ago for a book that s being worked on was probably not the brightest thing to do anyhoo here s a pic of the ol starhead that i did there s a couple fun things on the horizon for starblast related material i don t wanna say anything until we ve got something for ya stay tuned this post s fanart by alfredo caceres posted by goldenage at 7 03 pm 26 comments sunday january 28 2007 ninth post golden age poster sorry but i promised this and took too long to finish it up so here is the poster for golden age at least one version posted by goldenage at 11 30 am 4 comments tuesday november 28 2006 eighth post times they are a changin one of goldenage s central themes is that time is an unstoppable constant for all of us i just wanted to share some of my original drawings from 2003 of the ol star headedhero my attempt at headshot turnarounds almost 4 years ago a colored headsketch done about a week ago my vision of starblast keeps skewing more and more towards kirk s version i know what yer all thinking whatever matt where s kirk s sketches here s some of kirk s preliminary sketches for theskowl his prelim stuff looks better than my finished drawings sheesh and this week s fanart a team up by scott triffle of sb and his character powergranny http striffle deviantart com matt posted by goldenage at 7 15 pm 2 comments wednesday november 15 2006 seventh post page six sneak peek hello all this is kirk the artist on golden age i though i would post a few additions to the blog here today i m going to show you a peek at a part of page 6 page six is a collage that sets up the transition into the 50s when starblast is a young man and exerting is independence as a superhero click pic to see larger as for myself matt talked a little bit about my background to expand i am currently an art director at a game and puzzle company myself and a staff of three designers do all the packaging contents marketing material and catalog for the company previous to this job of which i have been at for 12 years now i worked at a roleplaying company called game designers workshop they made traveller and a few other games when i worked at gdw i did alot of illustration for them that had that roleplaying look not to mention lots of map drawings yehaw gdw whet out of buisness a year after i left when i came to patch i had to switch gears and draw cartoon characters in a disney style for some of the children s puzzles after the first few years at patch my duties strayed from illustrating to designing and managing the depatment thus no drawings to do after a few years of not drawing i decided i was going to pursue drawing on a daily basis and build my skill back up and past where i had been i had sort of done this a few times before only to fizzle out the differnce this time was that i was going to start a blog provided by the drawing board as a means of holding myself accountable it has helped and also provided me the contact with matt to work with on golden age now to say everything is great would be a stretch i still need to work thought busy and unmotivated times but the last two years have really been good for my illustrating development well sorry to talk your ear off for the next time i post some stuff here i plan on doing a golden age poster in fact i m already done with the drawing just need to ink it i will then post the final result a very fun poster and some thumbnail sketches of other ideals i had for a poster till then best to ya kirk posted by goldenage at 6 48 am 2 comments tuesday november 07 2006 sixth post i can t believe it s not the liberty justice affiliation well it is the lja yeah i know are the premier super team of major city during the early sixties to late seventies in other words they re the ones out there getting all the glory and fame while the lesser known heroes toil away in the background doing all the jobs that the city s big guns don t have the time or desire to do these are the most recent in my ever changing designs for these characters i m sure you ll see the recognizable stereo archetypes these are some of kirk s preliminary sketches this weeks fanart is by the classically styled illustrating genius that is dan mcdaid creator of the soon to be hit book thelastminuters http thelastminuters blogspot com matt posted by goldenage at 7 30 pm 1 comments tuesday october 31 2006 fifth post for the kid in all of us sorry about missing last week i ll try not to let that happen again in honor of halloween and kids everywhere both of mine are currently in sugar comas we re focusing on the starblastkid oliver in his early formative pre teen years was a sidekick of theskowl as far as heroes go oliver has payed his dues going from sidekick to legitimate solo hero this week s fanart is one of my favorites by davis godwin happy halloween posted by goldenage at 9 04 pm 2 comments tuesday october 17 2006 fourth post a little something for everyone i d really like to think that we ve got something special here everytime kirk shows me something that he s working on or a rough of an idea that he s made better i m blown away i m already positive that the book s going to look great except the colors who knows if that colorist is gonna screw things up we ve got super heroes cops robbers monsters and giant robots we ve even managed to fit a pretty good moral in there too i m hoping that it ll touch people on more than just a ass kicking action aspect i ve tested it on my son and he s super excited about all the different stuff that goes on he ll definitely be a barometer for seeing how kids might respond to it i believe that we ve got an all ages kind of book here or at the very least a pg rated book some violence some borderline brutal fight scenes but nothing outside the norm of general comic book excitement matt my favorite panel to date is that not the coolest thing you ve ever seen you should ve seen the crap design that kirk brought this thing from the skowl takin out the trash layin a beat down on some two bit thug and this week s fanart is from jeff chamba cruz his chibi version of ol starhead http lastscionz deviantart com posted by goldenage at 6 45 pm 3 comments tuesday october 10 2006 third post about the artist goldenage will be brought to you by the pencil ink machine that is mr kirk wescom straight outta illinois kirk s been illustrating proffesionally since 1988 he currently works as an art director designing board games logos and that kinda stuff he s a really great guy t boot some really early versions of the various starblast versions a rooftop shot of thestarblastkid and theskowl this week s fanart is by michael kasinger check out mek s stuff at http www fabricari com gallery index php cat 10003 posted by goldenage at 6 57 pm 4 comments tuesday october 03 2006 second post concept o rama thanks for joining us in the second installment of our goldenage blog this week we re going to give you the premise of the book and some of the early concept art along with another fan tastic piece of fanart the concept oliver glickman was a superhero once back in the day he went by the name starblast he defended his city against those who would see it destroyed he was a beacon of hope amongst the ever growing community of technicolor and spandex clad defenders of majorcity oliver worked as a taymag repairman he used his very free scheduel as a cover for his superheroics he found out that as hard as he tried there were always going to be heroes who were stronger faster and smarter than he was he never made his way out of the superhero d list he was a second stringer a bench warmer after years of a lack luster career he hung up the cape and skull cap for a quiet normal life now decades later and in his mid seventies he s back at it dispite his arthritus bad hearing and occasional power short circuit oliver glickman is bound and determined to take to the sky once again even at his golden age this is one of the earliest drawings of starblast the 2nd or 3rd i think this is one of kirk s early age scale charts in order to determine how starblast would look through the decades more of kirk s freakin gorgeous sketching magic that he does so well this week s fanart is a double threat drawn by israel cruz atomikmike and grey toned by dan mcdaid the last minuters http www aliasenterprises com projects html http thelastminuters blogspot com posted by goldenage at 7
