Work In Progress: Strange Heroes Samples, Part 3


And here are the final pencils for the page 2 & 3 double page spread. More samples tomorrow, including the inked page 1, and the rough pencils for page 4 of this story.

Work In Progress: Strange Heroes Samples, Part 2


More sneak peeks at the new art samples I've been working on, including the final pencils for page 1 of the "Strange Heroes" opening sequence (above), and the rough pencils for pages 2 and 3, which make up a big double page splash image (below). When I finish penciling the spread, I'm going to launch into the inks on page 1. I'll post the results of both when they're done, before moving on to the final two pages, which include an explosion. 'Cause, you know, drawing big exploding robotic octopus thingys is fun.

Work In Progress: Strange Heroes Samples, Part 1


Here's a sneak peek at the rough pencils for the first page of new art samples I'm working on to show editors at the upcoming New York Comic Con. Another slight variation in style from my DOCTOR WHO and SUPERNATURAL work, focusing again on more traditional superhero material. I'm currently working on a five page sequence from an old project of mine called "Strange Heroes" that I pitched a few years ago but never sold. The above is the first page from what I'd always intended to be the book's opening sequence. Tomorrow I'll post the final pencils and the inks.

Work In Progress: Wonder Woman, part 3


And finally, here's the inked piece I'm donating to the Wonder Woman Day V auction. I'll post all the details when I have them, but it's a great cause, and I highly recommend checking it out. In the meantime, a big thanks to Andy Mangels for inviting me to participate.

Work In Progress: Wonder Woman, part 2


And here are the final pencils for the Wonder Woman piece. I don't usually pencil this tightly, but I decided to use a slicker style for this pinup, a look I developed a while back for superhero projects, but rarely get to use. So I worked the lines a little harder in the final pencil stage then usual to get the look I wanted.

Next up, the inks...

Work In Progress: Wonder Woman, part 1


It's been a while since I've been able to post any of the art I've been working on, but I'm starting in on some pieces that I will be able to post, and here's the first of them -- a Wonder Woman pinup I'm doing for the fifth annual anti-domestic violence Wonder Woman day put together by Andy Mangels. Here's a sneak peek at the rough pencils for the piece. I'll post the final pencils tomorrow along with the inks.

Upcoming Appearances: New York Comic Con

Just a reminder that I will be appearing at the New York Comic Con on October 8-19 at the Javits Center in New York City, along with DOCTOR WHO Ongoing writer Tony Lee and WHO artist Blair Shedd.

I'll have a table set up in Artists Alley with some comics and original art from Doctor Who and other projects for sale, so stop on by if you're in the neighborhood.

There will also be two Doctor Who comic book signings at the IDW booth that weekend (Saturday from 1:00 - 2:00 and Sunday from 1:00 to 2:00) featuring Tony, Blair, myself, and hopefully a number of other Who creators.

On top of all that, IDW will also have a special Sneak Peek 2011 panel on Friday at 5:45 with lots of announcements about DOCTOR WHO and their many other projects.
