New Sketch card and Experiments...

Wonder Woman sketch card completed! She'll be on sale in Tucson for $15. The other image needs a little explanation since it's something I haven't tried since art school. So this was just an experiment I ended up liking. This is drawn on paper that was scored by multiple exacto knife cuts. I was trimming some other art work and I really liked the patterns that emerged so I decided to draw over it and then color it with copic markers. I'm pretty happy with the outcome but wish i would've drawn her nipples in 1st before coloring... they are a little out of place but oh well, bad boob job I guess. I think I'm going to play with these effects even more in the future to see what comes out of it because I think it crates some very interesting textures.

October 10th

Oh my goodness, has it been two weeks already since my last post?! Sorry for the delay but life just seems to be keeping me busy these days. However, that doesn't mean I haven't been working on my sketch cards. Here are the latest finished cards as well as one of the commissions I forgot to post last time around. It's My friend Jonesy as Night Thrasher... with an afro. I've also included 3 cards that are still in the pencils stage of completion, since I never seem to post any of my pencil work on here anymore(it's 2h pencil work on a 2.5" x 3.5" bristol card). As for latest news, still no completed script for Sonic Youth number 4. Hopefully I'll receive it soon so I will have it done before Thanksgiving... Still gearing up for Tucson Comic Con, but with school and work I'm way behind where I want to be in preparation for the show. So, like usual, I'll probably be running around like a crazy man for the full week before the show... Talk to y'all soon.

New Art and Upcoming events

Thanks again to everyone that stopped by the other day at Jesse James Comics. It was great to talk to all of you and for those of you that purchased my work thanks again as well! Here is a little article with photos of the event and I'm that guy in the last panel that is concentrating really hard... http://lightningoctopus.com/

Here are some of my new finished works, the refinished color cover for the complete Sonic Youth #1, which is a compilation of the 1st 3 mini comics, a Bat Girl and Cat Woman sketch Card(s).

The next definite event will be at the Tucson Comic Con November 6th, which will have the complete 1st issue for purchase as well as many, many sketch cards and prints. If you ever want a commissioned piece please contact me via the long dog art email address, my deviantart page, the Sonic Youth fan page on Facebook or my facebook page...

A few more sketch cards

Here are a few more of the sketch cards that I have been working on. These will be for sale at Jesse James Creators Appreciation Day this Saturday as well. Not sure what the rates will be because I am extremely attached to a few of them... Hope to see you there!

More sketch cards

And many more to come! Come on down to Jesse James Comics Saturday September 25th to see more!

Sketch Cards available

Hello everyone,

Here are 6 of the sketch cards I'm going to have available for purchase this upcoming Saturday (the 25th) at Jesse James comics. All of them except the Scarlet card will be $5, Scarlet will only be a dollar since she had a bad ink bleed and the resulting fix... well it didn't help the card any... Hope to see you all there!

Art work.. where the... ?!

For some reason blogspot "lost" my account yesterday when I was trying to post artwork and I had almost given up hope on my little site here. But now, somehow, my username and password work again. Unfortunately I'm too tired to post anything tonight so if your just dying to look at my art just click the Deviantart link and my newest sketches are there in all their glory!
