Free Comic day at New World Comics

Except for one-
Some lady gave me some balled up money as a tip. When I checked after I left it was 15 bucks.
Thanks Lady.
And I can't remember which one was hers.
Missed documenting a fair sketch Gambit and Rogue.
Of course this Vado just barely gets the job done.
This was my favorite. But the Gambit - Rogue ran pretty close to being the favorite. Dang it.

Bad Character Designs

Just goofing around....I don't have the knack for character design.

Or scenes that require perspective.

A lesson in circuitous re-blogging: pulled these down from my Tumblr page, where they'd been cross-posted from my original Instagram post, which was done from my phone...oy.

ME (in Charles Nelson Riley voice): "It's Tuesday, people!"

Why not rag on Man of Steel?

Got nothing else to contribute.


Aw drats. I just noticed that Gorham posted this on Facebook already.

Edit by SurlyBird: I'll add this new photo of Jared Leto as the Suicide Squad's Joker just to spice things up. Does DC/Warner Bros. not want me to see their movies? Not a fan of any of their movie offerings from the past decade. Boring, dreary, ugly and just bleh. I'll pass, yet again.

RPG progress

 
Time for some photoshop. I have to have these finished in the next couple of days. Getting over my shuttle tiredness at the moment. I did the figures in this drawing when I was dog tired yesterday.

Coloring this was tough. Too many weird, see through, composites to make.


Got all the pencil drawing done. 
Lots of photoshop left to go.
 Photoshop done on this.
Always a compromise when I'm doing color.





Kids at the con. One with an r2d2 backpack.



Index cards that didn't sell at the NWCC.
The hulk was done late and might have sold.
The old yellowed line art is from my Opubco career for a client called United Home Foods.
I think I wrote the copy.
35 years old?
It was in the tub of art-
'Ancient and recent. Please browse. Make an offer.'. 
People expressed interest in buying it several times.

A Few Choice Frames....

Been on a crazy bender doing some boards. They gave me 3 pages of a feature length script to board. Wanted some acting.
Dialog is out of sequence--these are just a couple of snippets thrown together...I did over 200 frames for the 3 pages--as a first pass. Oof. I have a feeling they aren't going to be impressed.
p.s. They haven't finalized their models...and neither have I!

UPDATE: They din't like anything...back to the drawing board....
p.p.s. teaser for Tom Moon's back page drawing in his copy of FUME!
