Nathan from "Misfits"




I've recently watched the first two seasons of Misfits with my girlfriend. Then I drew this quickie of Nathan Young - both obnoxious and lovable, a twat and a prick - probably the most memorable character featured in this British science fiction comedy-drama.
2015 UPDATE: Found a pencil sketch of Kelly among my papers, so I colored it!

NOFX: Backstage Passport




Fat Mike (bass, lead vocals), El Hefe (lead guitar, trumpet, backing vocals), Eric Melvin (rhythm guitar, accordion, the mel-yell) and Smelly (drums) from NOFX. Also, Kent, Jay Walker, Rugly and Limo from their road-crew. NOFX are an American punk band formed in California in 1983. Today, they are probably the biggest and most popular independent punk band in the world best known for their D.I.Y. approach to music (minimal staff and crew, self-management, promotion and show booking, staying off the major record labels, mainstream magazines, MTV and commercial radio stations). The artwork was inspired by their reality TV documentary series "NOFX: Backstage Passport" which was a lot of fun! I wanted to capture a kind of "trading card" look to it.

Check out the awesome "NOFX: Backstage Passport" theme song.

Harry Potter fan art ...

Some of the recent Harry Potter quickies turned out fine, so I decided to clean them a bit and give them a full coloring treatment...


LEFT: Sirius Black - based upon Gary Oldman - in his human and Animagus form, with the ancient Black family house elf, the vile Kreacher and the notorious Azkaban prison in the background. RIGHT: Year four Harry from the "Goblet of Fire" era. Inspired by the looks of actor Daniel Radcliffe.

Ramones !




The Ramones were my favorite band during high-school, featured in my drawings as far back as 2000. Very inspirational characters and always so much fun to draw! Updated in 2017!

Vekovnici + Beskrvni



Two commissioned covers for two related projects. 1.) Cover art for an episode ("Stayin' Alive") of "Bloodless" comic book created and written by Marko Stojanović. Published in Serbia by System Comics. 2.) The colored version of the pencil illustration I was asked to do for the cover of "Vekovnici" Sketchbook #4. I previously did a 3-page sequential for a "Vekovnici" book in 2010, published by System Comics.

Exhibition Promo Material



The promo material (biography) and the banner/e-mail invitation I produced for my upcoming exhibition at Belgrade Student Cultural Center which will be held from June 3rd to June 17th. On display will be an array of my previous work (childhood era included, starting with 1989) complete with current digital artwork. I especially enjoyed assembling all of my childhood heroes - featured throughout my career - for the first time in one single picture: Gremlins, Jurassic Park, The Addams Family, Terminator, The Crow, Alien, Starship Troopers, Godzilla and fighter jets/Robotech...

UPDATE: A big "thank you" to everyone who came to see the exhibit!

UPDATE: Added a similar style quickie of E.A. Poe.

Aerosmith



Some Aerosmith fan art drawn in 2010, colored in 2013. Bought my first Aerosmith cassette when I was 13. I rarely listen to the band now, but when I do (once in a couple of years) it makes me wanna draw them badass dudes. I'm considering adding the remaining bandmates and making this a pin-up...

Ron & Hermione



Just some random Harry Potter fan art... Ron and Hermione in the snowy village of Hogsmeade... Below is the background that I did as a separate file in 2012.

Partibrejkers

A tribute to the cult Belgrade garage/blues/punk-rock band. The lyrics snippets were written in hand by my friends: Jana Aleksić, Bojana Janjić, Sonja Baltezarević, Ksenija Marković, Bojan Palikuća, Milutin Bešlić, Filip Janković and Miloš Dimitrijević. Thanks, guys!

Jurassic Park


The sick Triceratops scene. Paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant (portrayed by Sam Neil) and paleobotanist Dr. Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) from Steven Spielberg's "Jurassic Park". Every now and then I tend to re-watch this exciting movie and it amazes me over and over again.

Hudson from "Aliens"



"Even though his motion tracker detected no activity in the sector, Private First Class Hudson, W. suddenly felt the sort of anxiety that you feel when a pointy teeth monster stares at you from the dark - and a strange heat washed over him, the heat that had absolutely nothing to do with the warm corn fields of his native, far away Oklahoma..."

This artwork is based on Bill Paxton's character of Pvt. Hicks, the cocky U.S. Colonial Marine from James Cameron's "Aliens". Ever since the film's 1986 debut, every single line of his dialogue has become a popular cultural reference ("Game over, man, game over!", "Why don't ya put her in charge!", "Stop your grinnin' and drop your linen", "Is this going to be a stand-up fight, sir, or just another bughunt?", "We're on an express elevator to hell, goin' down!" ... just to name a few).

Trespasser: Jurassic Park


This 1998 first-person video game is often regarded as one of the worst titles in gaming history. Advanced for its time - featuring enormous outdoor environment and dynamic physics modeling - it was rushed and went overbudget several times, so many issues remained unsolved. The developers built and scanned a real 3D model of the tropical island which the player could explore entirely thus resulting in hours of non-linear gameplay. "Trespasser" had a thrilling music score, appealing storyline, top voice acting (Minnie Driver and Richard Attenborough) and a trademark Jurassic Park survival horror atmosphere - setting the stage for much successful "Far Cry" series.

Initially, the game was difficult and buggy for me too, but I gave it a second try a few years later. After a while I got so immersed in its unique enviroment, it even gave me a few nightmares.

"Dawson's Creek" revisited







Joey, Dawson and Pacey, the original trio of friends from the coastal town of Capeside, MA - just before the raging hormones kicked in. While I was working on this fan art I listened to Bob Dylan's opus, so I considered naming this piece after Dylan's Times They are A-Changin' as I thought the title summed the essence of the show's first two seasons perfectly...

Billy Idol









Billy Idol put a great show in Belgrade last week. The first piece was inspired by his 1993 experimental concept album Cyberpunk often regarded as his weakest record that started the decline of his career. I, on the other hand, think that this futuristic concept album, influenced by techno and cyberpunk literature, suited Idol's image perfectly and to me it remains his most imaginative effort. But I'm weird, so...

Zombie-Boy


"Mommy, why the f... have you forsaken me?!"

Out of pure boredom, I turned a very rough unused comic book panel sketch into this bizarre piece of artistic improvisation.

Anytime... Baby!



The artwork was inspired by the film "Top Gun" and the slogan "Anytime, Baby" that the F-14 "Tomcat" fighter crews sported on their squadron insignia. After more than 30 years in active service, the "Tomcat" was retired in September of 2006.

MiG pilots








Character designs based on true testimonials by surviving Yugoslav MiG-29 pilots who flew their 14 malfunctioning jets against NATO in 1999. I did a lot of research and put a lot of time and effort into retrieving every possible information in order to reconstruct these events as true as possible. I hope to produce some more of these character sheets in the future, hopefully to include some more MiG pilots as well as some of their NATO adversaries.

the Rolling Stones


Some of my Rolling Stones fan art featuring the ageless Keith Richards and the band from 1997 Bridges to Babylon era.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day








The Terminator films had a huge influence on me when I was 10. So, it's kinda cool I created this pin-up - although it was not a planned effort! I was just doodling faces for practice and an Arnie-looking character appeared on paper. I realized it had a room for improvement and figured that, with a little effort, I could turn it into a decent full scale pin-up. The next day I added the characters of John and Sarah Connor and a Hunter-Killer hovercraft and - voila!

Dawson's Creek



The Spielberg-boy and the Girl from the Wrong Side of the Creek... I kinda loved the show's first season back in 2002 or 2003 when it first aired on Serbian TV... The rest of the series was... meh. The pic of Dawson was drawn and colored in 2013 to complement the pic of Joey that I drew back in 2010 (when I rewatched the show) and re-colored in 2012.

Urke the Airman


I always wanted to be a fighter pilot but (for all the obvious reasons) this remained just a pipedream. However, I managed to fly the world's most powerful jets through this comic book character - Urke the Airman. The first episode originates back to 2000 when the character was initially conceived, but was actually drawn in 2004. The second episode followed a year later. Both have been published in various magazines. In 2009 I drew these other two colored illustrations.
