Greenbrook - Page 2 - ruff

Yep...gonna be a bit of a challenge. There's a lot going on in the script.

Greenbrook - Page 1 - ruff

Well, I started the project in earnest. It's going to be a challenge. I have to basically do a page a week to keep up with the deadline...that includes inks and lettering. Here goes...

Inquisitor Vex - Page 3

Oldie but Goodie!

It was at this stage that I wanted to be a Cam Kennedy clone!

Greenbrook: The Queens

Rough costumes for a new project I'll be working on.

Spicy Space Tales - Page 17 - Done!

Well...got it finished.
It's okay but I probably should have spent more time on it.

Spicy Space Tales - WIP!

Looks like I'm not going to get it finished by the end of today...so, here's what's done so far.
Gotta finishe coloring it and adding the speech balloons. Hopefully Monday everything will be good to go.

I became a ...

...United States Citizen today.

I took the oath and made the pledge this morning in the Arizona State Fairgrounds stadium with 1700 other 'new' citizens from 170 different countries.

It was a pretty interesting experience. It was a whole big occasion. It was the largest swearing in in history.

There were speeches made by naturalized citizens that came to the US years ago. One that was particulary striking was by a police detective that came over from Germany and became a citizen ten years ago...he choked up as he told the crowd of 'new' citizens and their family members of how much being an American meant to him. He cried his way through his speech and got a thunderous round of applause.

Patriotic songs were played...the whole shebang.

The great thing about the United States is it's optimism. It's contagious.

Well...there you go...no doodles today.

I'm proud to be an American.

Spicy Space Tales - Page 17 - Inks!

A bit rushed. I'll have it cleaner looking, colored and lettered hopefully by Friday.

Inquisitor Vex - Page 2

Oldie but Goodie.

Another of the re-vamped Vex pages from 1997. Damn! That's so far back.

Touchdown!

I thought I'd share this rough done for that Casino game idea. No need to go all out on it...it appears very small in the concept artwork. To see the finished concept work...click on the 'Game Design' tagline.

Busy...Busy...Busy...

Well, I've been keeping really busy! So busy with the puppies and other stuff...(Citizenship and Job Hunting!)...here's a list of comic book work that I have coming out soon.

3. Mercury and The Murd.

Three covers for the PKDMedia series! You can see two of them if you click the link. Can't remember what the third cover is being used for. It might be used for a character guide book.

4. Thugs!

Al Sparrow's and my creator owned project. lots of fun. Currently being printed as I type and will be available in September.

5. Caretakers Uncannily Nasty Tales.

The artwork for this is completed and the cover is currently being colored by Rob Jackson. The guy's a genius. I hope to have this to the printers soon.)

6. Marvel Masterpieces.

I did 50 sketchcards for Upper Decks Marvel Masterpiece series. Can't post them until I get the go ahead...but as soon as I do...they'll be on here.

7. An Untitled Sci-Fi Anthology.

Haven't decided on a name for this yet...but it will be a Black and White anthology featuring the 'Deb Bonair' strip written by myself with Pencils by Rory Hensley and also George O'Shea's 'Malego' story.

I hope to have this done by the end of the year. I just need a cover for it and a name.

8. GreenBrook.

A secret project written by Shawn Pryor and pencilled, inked by me. This looks like a lot of fun.

9. Flint Lockjaw Interprets BlueMeanies Chicken Scratchings!

Yeah. It's a long title. I said to Rich that I'd redraw his insane doodles for the heck of it...he thought I was joking...But I ain't! This is a ongoing fun project for me and I'll probably start it after the Greenbrook project ends.

The Ventriloquist - Peyton Riley

Another commission. This time it's The Ventriloquist - Version 2. Peyton Riley replaced the first Ventriloquist, Arnold Wesker. Personally...I think it's a pretty decent upgrade, although I do prefer the original Ventriloquist created by John Wagner and Alan Grant. But I understand the reason. She is welcome addition to Batmans villainous Femme Fatales.

Productivity shot...

...to hell!

Myself and my wife got ourselves two Jack Russell Terrorists. The one on the left is Princess and the one on the right is Rooney!

Did I say terrorists? Yep...I did.
These two little cuddly lumps are a helluva handful. I don't expect to get much updating to the blog done as often as I have been. Little suckers eat a lot of my time.

But...ya gotta love 'em.
