So if you have been following my tweets on twitter, you might have noticed me saying I was back to work on Into the Dust, figured I would give you all a peek at a page. There will be dialog in the final version, but you can look at the pretty artwork. I tried a thinner bristol on this page that had been lying around the studio for years (it was a sheet of Blue Line pro comic board) and I have to say that even though it worked wonderfully for the inking and drawing,

once washes went down, I was cursing  every few moments. This paper wicks like crazy, it was if I was painting on a roll of Bounty! So, for future pages, I will not be using this paper, but my good old 3ply (or 2ply in a pinch) Strathmore 300 series. I have finally bit the bullet, and I am working at 11×17 like most of my peers, working at 6×9 was fun, but I love the room (plus it hides the mistakes better)

You may have noticed a few new conventions on my list for the fall, looking forward to getting back into the swing of conventions for the late 2010 season, and all of 2011! Expect me to travel quite a bit next year (there may even be a San Diego trip possible)

I have commissions again! Expect a few of those to show up soon too!

Appreciate it!
