It Won't Pay for Her College

This  is easily the longest time I've gone without drawing a new "Epic Tales..." strip since I it began, although    it's sister comic, "RECORD HEAT", is still pluggin' along regularly. It's almost as if the thing that I get paid to do takes priority, huh?

BTW, "Epic Tales..." is gonna be black and white again for the foreseeable future. I think it helps distinguish it from "Record Heat" (sorta), and makes it easier and more cost effective for printing.

Here are some of the sketchcards I did for Phoenix Comicon, which I tabled at last weekend:

 Kamandi, probably my favorite Jack

Kirby work that I've read, so far.

 Finn, from the cartoon "Adventure Time"

 Jake, also from the cartoon "Adventure

Time"

 Tom Scioli's American Barbarian

 Einstein, the punk rock panda.

And finally, my weird, sorta collagie (sic) final project for my photoshop class. BTW, the robot figure is partially swiped from this pic by Jack Kirby;

Alrighty, then!

Winning?

Actually, I didn't even pay for my table (thanks, Shawn!), and I really wasn't expecting to sell giant shitloads of minicomics to people that were there to see Robert Kirkman or Rob Liefield, or just to get good deals on comics.  But, it's funnier if I bitch about stuff, right?

Meanwhile, here's some other stuff:

This is a drawing I did as a color study for an acrylic painting in my Color Theory class last semester, and ultimately abandoned (and did this instead). I do kinda like it on it's own, though.

And, here's a couple new sketchcards and I drew before the con, and then inked and colored 'em with color pencils.

And finally, a full page pinup of  Eric Esquivel's "Blackest Terror" character! I might do some more shading and stuff like that if I decide to put this in my portfolio later, but y'know, whatever.   

  

Okay, I'm spent.
