Catching up!

Just downloaded the blogger app for my iphone, so I'm hoping that will translate into more posts! (Lucky you right?)

Here's a Despicable Me purple minion-Venom mash up from this past week's Sketch Charlotte...

The Factor of 01 is back from the printer!

Today my books arrived from the printer, and I'm extremely pleased with the quality. They'll be shipping out to the Kickstarter backers over the next few days, complete with incentives, with the exception of the two backers that get the big color drawings, those will ship separately. I'm also going to do a little redesigning to the sidebar to properly advertise the book. If you didn't contribute to the Kickstarter and want a book, then you can order it through Paypal by just clicking the link below, or if you're in Charlotte, cornering me at a Sketch Charlotte meeting, since I'll always be carrying a couple with me.


Here's some previews of the book so you can see how it looks.

$10.00 + $3.50 shipping!

Now Available for pre-order: Jet-Pack Jenny and the Factor of 01!

It's finally off to the printer, and physical copies will be sent out towards the end of April, along with their respective incentive rewards, which I'm finishing up now.

The book is something I'm very pleased with an Introduction by my fellow Sketch Charlotte member, Eraklis Petmezas, the entire Factor of 01 story in a beautiful 8" x 7 1/4" format, anotations of every page giving some of the backstory behind the process of telling the story and creating the art, and 5 pages of Guest Art by friends, Eraklis, Brandon Padgett, Joel Carroll, Henry Eudy, Collette Ardith, and Jonathan Rosenbaum. Since it's in the works at the printer, I'm offering it for pre-order for those of you that want to get the book as soon as it's available. Pre-orders will get a free digital copy in PDF format on a CD-ROM with a special sketch on the CD sleeve! (Kickstarter contributors will also get this special bonus!)

For Alphababes, week two, Brenda Starr.

AlphaBabes launches!

A is for Aurora

In the tradition of AlphaBots, AlphaBooks, AlphaBeasts and Animal Alphabet, I decided I wanted to do something to get myself to draw, but I wanted to pick something that I wanted to draw, so I combined my interest in drawing women and a love for comics to do AlphaBabes.

Everyone is welcome to submit anytime that they want to, but I'm starting this week with A, which is first represented by Aurora of Alpha Flight. There'll be another drawing for A because my love for drawing comic book women is large enough for two a week sometimes.

I'm trying to do all of these with grey brushpens so like this one, they'll all be shaded, just to make them a little more interesting.

Jet-Pack Jenny

Our buddy and partner-in-crime Stan Ford has a Kickstarter for his creation: Jet-Pack Jenny and he'd asked a few of us to sumbit art for a pinup section. 

This was my contribution...

The Mermaid & the Manatee

I did this drawing for Henry Eudy's birthday, and now that I've given it to him, I can share it. I really like how it came out, although I wish I were better at drawing manatees.
