Charlotte Comicon

Had a great time this past weekend with Stan, Herc and Bridgit at Charlotte Comicon's Summer Show! Thanks to everyone who came by the table, it was really good to see so many familiar faces!  Can't wait to do it again in a few months!

Charlotte Comicon - Sunday, August 4

I'll be set up drawing on-site commissions ($10 custom chibis & minions and head sketches) plus I'll have prints & sketchbooks and both of the Sketch Charlotte Anthologies with me! 

And while you're there don't forget to check out my talented friends: Eraklis Petmezas, Stan Ford, Bridgit Scheide, Matt Starnes, Bradd Parton, Chrissie Zullo, John Hairston Jr, and tons more! Hope to see you guys there!

Here's a few examples (that were on my phone) of what I'll be drawing:

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!)

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

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.
