Leonardo
Warm-up sketch of Leo from ye old Ninja Turtles. So apparently there’s a (yet another) new TMNT cartoon in development for Nickelodeon. I actually like the designs from the one pic that’s been shown so far, but who knows if the show will actually be any good… Oh, here’s a link to an article with that pic I mentioned: Gin …
My Precious
Just something for fun – Smeagol and his birthday present. (Pen & Ink/Brush)
Emerald City ComiCon is this weekend…
… but unfortunately I won’t be there this year. Jenny and I were planning on going, even though I wouldn’t be at a table this time (Artist Alley sold out way early and The Comicsmiths’ Guild didn’t get a spot), but her job requires a minimum 3 months advance for time-off, and we didn’t think to put the request in …
Aquaman Re-design
This was my entry for the most recent Project: Rooftop superhero costume re-design contest (which just ended on Sunday). I was trying to at least imply some of his classic costume’s traditional elements (gloves, trunks, “A” buckle), while giving him an updated modern look.

Daredevil 2 x 4
Last week, over on Livejournal, Jason Horn posted a pretty awesome page he did as an experiment – Batman’s origin done in the same format as the one page origin in All Star Superman. Check it out: NewJason’s All-Star Batman The idea is to distill a character’s origin down to 4 panels, using only 2 words per panel. I thought …
Michonne
The Walking Dead’s resident bad-ass with a sword. Can’t wait ’till she (hopefully) shows up on the TV show.
A New Year
Hopefully everyone out there had a happy and safe New Years celebration. I spent the first day of 2011 getting off on the right foot – by drawing! I was at local shop Lightning Comics with my friends in the Comicsmiths’ Guild doing sketches for customers, during their big New Years/3 Year Anniversary celebration. I’m not really one for resolutions, …

The Robert Picardo signing at local comic shop Merlyns was a lot of fun. They had a really good turn-out, a lot more than expected, and Mr. Picardo was really entertaining. He talked for about an hour or so, telling some stories about his acting experiences, taking questions from the audience, and even singing a bit! We were there to …
