Welcome!!

Hi! I'm Mike Victa. Artist, aspiring author, and practicing Geek. Thank you for stopping by my Geeky little corner of the internet. Here you will find my artwork, photographs, and senseless ramblings from my cluttered mind. I hope you enjoy your stay. Make yourself at home. :)

Prime Time Tee

I've added the Optimus piece to my Redbubble shop. Grab one if you like it to have a nice shirt that no one else will have at the movies. Also check out some of the other artist posting their work there.  Lots of great stuff!

That's Just Prime!

Finished up a little project in honor of Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Had a lot of fun with this one. Added a few things just for fun below. Hope you all enjoy.

First up, here is a little time-lapse video of me working on the pencils for this one.


Here are the pencils.

After that it was off to Photoshop for some colors.


For this next part you'll need to find yourself a set of these.


This set comes packed with a smallish Optimus Prime figure.  Part of a preview figure set available at most stores. If you can't find this set, any pair of old skool 3D glasses should work just fine. 
Enjoy! Transformers: Dark of the Moon is in 3D too after all.

The Original Tea Party Activist!!

Took a while to decide which way to go with this one and finally decided to just do my own take on the Mad Hatter. 2 days of being sick with a migraine and this is what comes out.

The Dark Knight

Woke up this morning and thought I'd throw some color on the sketch I did last night.

Megacon 2012!!

For those that know me well, you know I have always wanted to attend Megacon as an artist.  Every year I get to meet some amazing artists and leave feeling completely inspired. Yet, every year I leave saying I will return next time as an attending artist and never follow through. This year, with some encouragement from good friends, I am actually doing it. Hope to see you all there next year.

Follow the link and check out the other artists attending.

Mike

P.S.  Thanks to all those who encouraged me to finally do this.  You know who you are. :)

Redbubble Shop now OPEN!

In a shameless attempt to get my work out there, I've opened a shop on Redbubble. There are some great pieces up there from a whole bunch of other artists.  If you haven't checked them out, please do so.

You can access my page by clicking on the link below, or on the link on the right side of this page.

Thanks!  Hope you enjoy!

There be Dragons!

This one I dug up from my laptop too but it's actually a watercolor that's hanging on my wall.  I did this while in the Bahamas for work on a sheet of random paper I had with me.

More Oldies but Goodies!

Adding a few things I found on my laptop.
