I Laughed Myself To Sleep



Been sketching much bigger lately. School is almost ready to begin and I am awaiting to get back into the thick of the challenge of painting assignments but not those godforsaken written assignments for the academic classes. Been writing my story "Asleep" for which i am proud of taking initiative for. If you hang out with me i have told you about it. If not just ask and i can give you the gist. The characters that are shown right now are characters from "Death After the Apocalypse" a little dark comedy i'm thinking of doing which i have also started writing. Check out the sketches.

Things I Want

This is all mainly a reminder for me so pay no attention...

Madman Vol.1 Which comes out tomorrow
And
Image Popgun #1 OGN In November

more things may be added later.

Your Art it brought me to my Knees!!!

It's been a little more than ten days since i last posted something. A lot has happened in the past two weeks. Well not a lot but some major events. Wizard World chicago preparation and execution were two things that took up most of my time and money. It was well worth it. Also a great artist in the comic book industry passed away, and i know that its about 5 days late to say something but still, Mike Wieringo was a great artist and was an artistic inspiration to me. Also he made an impact on artists all over the web from penny-arcade to pvponline.com and all the artists on drawingboard. Just wanted to say even though i never really met him he still made an impact. Mike you're missed and still admired.

Some sketches of friends and random viewing:

100 Fables, Myths, and Legends is back!



Heres the recent entry in the Series. Enjoy it. I've been a little sickly lately so i have had time. If you did not know this is the myth of Icarus. It was really difficult getting the feathers to look right in my eyes. I think i accomplished making them look like wings. Yellow and red were used to give a burning feeling to the painting. I gave this piece a little bit of chaos to show that this guy is not going to make it. I really like how it turned out.

We named our children after towns, that we've never been to...


Alright so sketchy sketching has been back in business as of late. Right now just dumping them here for all to see. Saw the Simpsons movie this past week, it was alright. A lot of what the Simpsons has been for the past decade, kinda dry of humor but it had it's moments. So yeah I have been on a Phantom kick for a while now and it will be pretty apparent with this new entry, so... here it goes.

And two women that have just been residing in my head for the past day or so. Not real by any means( is that weird?). Just characters I will use on a later date.

You look like a daisy in my lazy Eye...




I have not posted in Forever! Mainly because I have been busy with work, tired, and not liking any of my sketches. Recently I have just been doing scribbles to see what would happen and nothing... Then I don't know how but I got the old mojo back. I think it started with me drawing myself.

And then i knew i got it back because i started drawing the Rocketeer and I was extremely happy with it.

And update on 100 Fables, Myths, and Legends. Painting 2 has started and it will be Icarus. It will be posted by the end of the week. With the stuff for Some Assembly Required. Mentioning that here are the paintings for the last two weeks if you don't wat to click the link...

Now Your Getting With It...




Had kind of a long day. Also for the day i think i may have thrown out the simple line rule for some of my sketches today. Wanted to let the pen loose on the paper. As for the sketch from days before of Midnight Rose and Green Soliloquy, I finished it and i don't think i killed the entire thing. I think it looks pretty cool. Here it is...

I have also noticed that for some reason the old superhero i used to love as a kid has flashed back into my mind. He is the ghost who walks, The Phantom. I used to watch the old cartoon about the phantom in the future and used to love the movie with Billy Zane as well. I think i may look for some books with the Artwork from The Phantom. Who knows how he popped back into my memory. But, He's there...

And another MiracleMan sketch that i was quite happy with...
