Holiday Update

Hey,
Sorry its been a bit since I've updated. Thanks to everyone who came out to the book signing at 21st Century! I had a great time. Anyways, its officially break time. Aside from a billion other things I've been doing, I'm currently kicking around several new comic ideas, trying to decide which to tackle first. Whichever I choose, I will begin work on it soon. And when I do, updates will be found right here! So hang tight and enjoy the holidays!

Something Big!

Photobucket
I thought folks who were interested in my comics would enjoy this. This was my final project for Intermediate Drawing. I've been working on it along side Nathan and The Land of Robots for the past few weeks and I just finished it for our final critique today. Its the biggest ink drawing I've ever made. I didn't get a chance to measure it while it was up but it was too big to put together in my apartment. It's a rather mysterious robot drawn on about 24 pieces of Bristol. I'm really excited about it and its going to be on display in a gallery showing my class is putting on at MSU in the spring. I'll update this blog with more info on that when we finalize the dates. I love the fact that two of my final projects this semester revolved around robots. Goood stuff!

Nathan and the Land of Robots is finished! As you can see, it will be available in two different cover colors. I have titled the one on the left "LASER" and the one on the right "STEEL". Epic.

I hope to see you at 21st Century Comics next Wednesday, Dec 16th!

Now I've got to catch up on a couple days worth of sleep!
