San Diego Comic-Con: July 20-23

I'll be attending this year's Comic-Con and sharing a table with a slew of Chicagoland (and ex-Chicagoland artists). I'll be selling sketchbooks, prints, and will color up four of the above sketches (in my "pastely" style) to make as bookmark/magnets. If any strike your fancy, please let me know. It'll be my first Comic-Con, and I'm really looking forward to the enormousness of it!

So if you happen to be there, stop by table E-6 and say "Howdy, Hi, or Was' Up"!

Legendary

I've recently been asked to contribute a comic story to a new book called Legendary. It's being done in an anthology style, with all artists asked to give interpretations of "Legend". I'm very excited about being a part of this due to the interesting theme, roster of great talent involved, and proceeds will be going to various funds supporting the comics medium.

Since I firmly believe in recycling, I'll be reworking a story I had started as part of another anthology, which didn't quite get of the ground. Above are a couple penciled pages, which will be re-done. The first page was to have a cosmic Kirby type space background.

Please check out the official Legendary blog for details, and sample artwork .... great stuff!

Welcome To Kreepsville, U.S.A.

The kreepy kartoon pitch, Welcome To Kreepsville, U.S.A., is still in the works. Here's a couple misc. kreeps to fill up some space :)

Cereal Killers Book ....

.... should be ready shortly. The head kreepster himself, Doctor Viktor Von Kreep, says the book will be squirming it's way into reality this summer. I'll kreep you posted!

Above are some sketches of "Maggie Maggot", which will accompany the illo "Sugar Frosted Maggots", posted earlier.

Commercial Work

Speaking of creepy cereal mascots, here's some concept work from a spot done last Fall. From .... the "day job" *_*

Chewbone

Speaking of animation, stop by my buds at Chewbone and give 'em a howla' !
"J-Dog" Meredith recently posted a fun bit of animation he and I did for the heck of it called "Diddles Red Lager". Yep, that Diddle and this Diddle would be the same Diddle.

Here's the invitation I did for last year's Chewbone Christmas party, I know it's a bit late, but only 'cause I'm still getting over the hangover ...... @__@

Last, But Certainly Not Least ....

... when I get some spare time from all the above, I love spending it with my two special ladies :)
