one of the stranger threats in a bonkers game, mgs2, was the ‘fatman.’ he was a master bomb builder who also wore roller blades and kind of looked like uncle fester
here’s some process shots from sketch to first ink lines to final wash
I can’t decide if I should’ve added the ink wash or not
anyway. inktober metal gear continues. day 13. guarded.
And that’s not a cake floating out there. It’s a ration. They float in the mgs games.
I haven’t played Metal Gear Solid V, so I can’t say for sure that there is not a whale suit in the game.
inktober 2018 celebration continues in metal gear land.
i think this image would work great for any of the 3 new yorker captions that works on every cartoon.
metal gear solid 3 has maybe the most beautiful (and sad) boss battle in video games
update: i did an ink wash but i don’t think i like it as much:
To my knowledge, there’s no ‘One Ring’ in the Metal Gear franchise…
metal gear solid 2 introduced the idea of having to deal with the enemy guards you’d incapacitated. You had to drag around the guards, hide them in alcoves, or stuff them in lockers so fellow guards wouldn’t stumble upon them and your presence wouldn’t be detected.
After using a wash in yesterday’s sketch, I decided to try it out here today. I’m digging the results.
And here’s the original sketch.
In Metal Gear 4, Snake is an old man, exhausted by years on the battlefield.
He wears a sneaking suit that helps him blend in, octopuslike, with his environment.
I try to convey that effect with a little ink wash. I’m not quite successful, but the effect is interesting, nonetheless.
As a little bonus, here’s the preliminary drawings.
First the pencil sketch, than the inks.
Onward.
I haven’t played Metal Gear Solid 5 so I don’t know if there’s a chicken suit in there or not.
But I’d like to think there is.
inktober 2018 day 4: spell
metal gear solid. meryl is under the spell of foxhound’s resident psychic
this one could really use a background. maybe i’ll go back in sometime this month and fill it in
on day 3 of inktober, you get 3 drawings. this trend will not continue.
one of the antagonists in metal gear 3 is the fury, a cosmonaut obsessed with flame.
mgs 3 also features a survival element, where living off the jungle may help your character, snake, complete his mission
those elements combined.
if you look closely you can see abandoned underdrawings in the first two sketches
Inktober 2018 continues with Metal Gear Solid 2.
Metal Gear Solid was already a strange game, but Hideo Kojima’s Metal Gear Solid 2 was completely bonkers, and great.
Today’s prompt: tranquil.
Shaking off the inking dust with Day 1 of Inktober.
Decided to apply Jake Parker’s official Inktober 2018 prompts list with the world of Metal Gear Solid, my favorite video game franchise.
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater takes place in the jungle. And if you eat a spoiled ration you can get food poisoning.

blue pencil, then gel ink pen, then brush, just a piece of twine wound around a pencil and dipped in water that my office mate made
