Well this wraps up a month of G.I. Joe drawings (and gives me a whole bunch of cards to sell if I get a table at Fallcon!). The plan was to swing into September and continue the trend by doing a character from the X-Men each day… Not sure if I will be doing that for sure or not. Feeling a little wore down today and thinking I might take a day or two off. Guess you will have to tune in tomorrow to find out for sure!
1 Drawing for each day. Now with the Alphabet all wrapped up, it is time for some Joes that I just wanted to draw…
Day 31 is Bazooka
Bazooka is my all time favorite Joe. After all he is a hometown boy from the Iron Range of MN.
On a little side note, While he himself does not show up in the live action GI Joe movies, his Shirt does in the background of one of the scenes…
