ThunderCats, ThunderCats, ThunderCats...HO!


YAY! MORE INKS!  This is a pin up that may be turned into a print by Jason Sobol.  Jason is one the more talented artists I've seen in the Denver area and was gracious enough to allow me the opportunity to ink some of his work...at least give it a shot.  He is very particular about his inkers and when I asked to try he was skeptical...then he saw my Red Zombie work...suddenly he was less skeptical.  Thanks for the opportunity Jason!

Denver Comic Con and updates GALORE!


Alright!  So finally, here comes an update...  Denver Comic Con was AMAZING!  The inaugural convention had more attendees than any other convention of it's kind...save NY's Comic Con.  Not a bad showing.  Wil Wheaton, who had to cancel this year, and Stan Lee are already committed to next year's convention!   
The pictures above are the sketches I did over the weekend.  I had a GREAT convention.  The little pictures the people are holding above I am calling "postage stamps."  They are one inch by one and a half inches.  I sold about 8 or so, but forgot to get pictures of them all.  The marker sketch above is on an Oldsmobile Solera or Aurora...not sure which.  Nevertheless, all the artists in artist's alley did a sketch and they are auctioning off the vehicle for Comic Book Classroom.  If I hear where and when I'll let you know, but for now look for it driving around Denver.  
Finally, we got a lot of great responses from An American Apocalypse: The Reckoning from convention goers.  If you are interested in backing the project click here:  An American Apocalypse: The Reckoning
We are still looking for a LOT of help with the project, so please tell all your friends, family, acquaintances, etc...THANKS!  Look for more art soon.  I have about three inking offers from the convention and am working on all of them as we speak.  Keep your fingers crossed that they actually turn into jobs!

Westword and Comic Con

This is going to be a flyer in Westword.  It's an advertisement for the Diamond Cabaret and Steakhouse in Downtown Denver.  For those of you that don't know what the Diamond Cabaret is, it's a gentleman's club in downtown Denver.  If you bring me a copy of the Westword with this image at the Convention this weekend, I'd be happy to sign it and give you a free sketch card.  I'll be at table 36 in Artist's Alley.

KICKSTARTER!

First off the title of the campaign is:  An American Apocalypse: The Reckoning.  Second, we've put An American Apocalypse on Kickstarter.  We haven't heard much from the publishers we have pitched, so we got impatient and started our own campaign to fund this project.  Check it out and please help!  An American Apocalypse: The Reckoning
And if you have any suggestions for rewards...please let me know!
