Shoptopus

I was inspired to do this piece after visiting a place Tigre in Buenos Aires. There, people live and vacation on a peaceful island that has no connections to the land around it. Often times, people do their shopping of Market boats that cruise up and down certain parts of the river.

Getting Back on Track

Im supposed to be working on a web comic right now but for the past 3 weeks I havent drawn a single thing until today. Not being employed fulltime has been freeing in a lot of ways but it's taken me a minute to get other, more pressing affairs in order first. In the end I havent really been in the mood to draw.

Ever since I started watching Walking Dead and some other zombie movies, I've had this scene bouncing around inside my head so I had to get it out. Still not sure about the composition but it was a lot of fun to create and ink. Hammermill White #32 ledger was a bad choice of paper. The inks bled so much I felt like I was doing watercolor instead of inking for a minute.

I enjoyed making the DIY yo yo cutters and trying to give them a sense of motion. Im still thinking of changing her background and placing her in an arena packed with howling (uninfected) fans. It might tell a more interesting story.

My webcomic Malice in Ovenland will be coming out in installments soon. Please be patient with me.

post Comic Con doodle.

Being at Comic Con (as a participant) was a great experience. At first, viewing the throngs of fellow artists milling about and setting up as I entered Javitts on Friday morning was really intimidating and I felt out of place. But being there and seeing how passionate people were about their craft was so inspiring and encouraging that I quickly shook off my initial mood.

It was both exhausting and rejuvenating being there. Big thanks to all the people who showed up (or commented) on Fb) to support the cause. To you I dedicate my first post Con doodle..hihii

Getting ready from the Con

Here is a page from my teaser comic for Malice in Ovenland - coming oct 31st!
The whole thing will be very photocopier-y...but it's better than nothing.

Still doodling

Found this folded up in my raincoat today so I figured Id post it. Forgot to draw the udders on this cow...but she doesnt appear too troubled by it.

Now in Color!

Finally finished coloring the cover art. Still trying to figure out how I can get a nice cover out of this for the teaser comic. Dont want things to look TOO DIY. Thinking of using this for my promotional post card pic too. Now on to scanning, cleaning up and assembling the rest of the pages.

Dammit..i wanna go out and play : P

Almost there...

Just finished inking the cover of my teaser comic for NYCC. Now to add color and a nice logo....so much more to do! AUUGHH!
