Did these two both today and they couldn't be more different. The first is 36x36 on brown paper, the other is 9x12 on illustration board. I was in the mood to paint from having watched a documentary on Basquiat called, "The Radiant Child," which I highly recommend. I later watched another great documentary on Hirschfeld called, "The Line King." There was inspiration to be had from both. I can't recommend watching stuff like this enough. It always lights my fires.

Another page of the kids story, slightly out of order. I want to vary the composition of the pages a bit more but the errands are somewhat similar. Stuff to work out.

One last promo piece for "Delve Deep." I really need to start MAKING this comic. I have plotted out the first episode now I have to thumbnail and color-key it (something I haven't done before). LOTS of drawing on this. I expect this to be the most drawing intensive thing I've ever done simply because it takes time to get my head in the right place. This simple drawing took three thumbnails before the final pose. Animators make it look so easy...

Another one down before work. Lots of blue, which I love.

Managed to get another one done before heading off to the day job. Probably the easiest page to draw in the whole comic.

First, another re-drawn Fite page. I've fallen behind on these but I'm still going to get the first 30 re-drawn and then perhaps I'll re-release the whole thing as an epub edition. Second was just a quick sketch inspired by a photo and the work of Egon Schiele. As a lion. For no reason.

Sample full page. This one would come directly after the last one. This is the grid/layout I plan to use. I've experimented in the past with layout, but this time, like with Tamino, I'd rather let story dictate.

Decided I needed to work on environment today, so I did this mock splash page. This is pretty much the style I want.

Sample panel at about actual size. Drawing small sucks. I like big much better.

More on the kids book. This is just a rough as the colors still need to be balanced. Mom asked that I change fonts. I don't like this one, but she does.

A mock cover to my next comic series. It will be less 'for children' and more 'for general audiences,' though I do want some of that golden age of comics feel to it.

Some different stuff I'm doing at the same time; first a page from a kids' book I'm working on with my mom and second, more character sketches from the upcoming comic. No color as I have to head to work. These two have names now; Sharp and Flick.

Recycling the Frogera for the new comic. Reptiles make great monsters and as they weren't doing anything, they seemed a perfect fit. Now taller, more zombified and with extra calcium for strong bones.

One last one before the other job. This one using a good ol' Frazetta pose.

The last two members of the party, Wizard and apprentice. Magic seems to be blue. Now to design the monsters...

This is a bit rough (bad ink day) but this is the basic idea I have in mind for the comic. So far. But with more background.

Working on the proportions of this guy. Think I have it down. The pose was 'borrowed' from Preston Blair, so I have no idea what he's supposed to be leaning on. Quickie sketch.

More character work, inks of the previous and some pencils of the warrior guy. I want to add more stretch to the faces of this comic than I usually do.

Did some more work on the rabbit thief as I wasn't satisfied with him. Went through two pages of drawing like other people until I re-learned how to draw like me. I think.

Possible t-shirt design, tossed out just for fun.

First buddy for the warrior rabbit appearing behind me in the Biography comics.

Fantasy is generally my weapon of choice.

Just a little extra.

It's all about the layers.

More complicated than I thought but I wanted to try something different. A little Roger Rabbiting about.

Vacation comic.
