Hey everybody, go check out Underground, a new creator-owned project by my studiomates Jeff Parker and Steve Lieber, with myself doing the colors! It doesn’t officially come out until Sept via Image Comics, but you can check out the whole first issue in black and white on the official website, as well as see a preview of some of the pages in color. Spread the word!

Hey everybody, Dark Horse has posted a 3-page preview of my issue of Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic. The issue comes out tomorrow, Wednesday June 17th! Check out the preview in black & white here, or in color (and with lettering) over at Dark Horse!

Looks like it’s fan art time again. I decided to try something a little bit different this time around, opting for traditional media. It had been quite some time since I last dabbled in watercolor illustration, but I was itching to try it again after recently seeing some great watercolor art by Dylan Meconis and Dustin Nguyen. I’m reasonably happy with the result, so maybe I’ll try more in the future. Some of the likenesses could probably be better, but it wasn’t a big focus so much as just getting the general feel for the characters.

I did this sketch of Periscope’s new intern, Ben Bates, to show him some of the techniques I use.

I’m thinking about doing a short comic featuring an MMA fight. Here are a couple character designs for the fighters. Realistically, these two probably wouldn’t be the same weight class, but hey, it makes a good visual to have your characters look distinctly different.

At a friend’s request, here’s a drawing of Link from The Legend of Zelda. I took some liberties with his outfit just for fun.

Just a couple a crazy kids and their ipods. I’ve been wanted to get some more practice with traditional inking because I do a lot of work all digitally these days, so I feel like I’m getting a little rusty with traditional media. I still kinda like drawing with the computer though (for the flexibility) so this was drawn in photoshop, inked with a brush and pens, and then brought back into photoshop to add the tones.

Anyone else excited about the Wolverine movie coming out? Well I am, even if the people who watched the unfinished bootleg said it wasn’t all that great. I was originally planning on this just being a sketch, but then I got into it and it became more polished. I dunno what he’s wearing… I just kinda made it up based on other costumes of his.

I’ll be exhibiting at the Stumptown Comics Fest this weekend! If you’re in Portland, come on by and check it out. I’ll be at booth 107, peddling my prints, comics, and sketches.

I am back from Emerald City Comic Con in one piece, and I had a pretty fun time. Here are a few pics of con sketches I was commissioned to do!
