The return of friends...

Another slice of Space Creep concept, this time an un-inked sketch of the piratical potentate: BoneDaddy, King of the Skull Eaters. Bones is featured here in his preferred Plasti-Wear™ Full Comfort Space-Waders and sporting on his right arm the ever-popular "Skulltopus" tattoo. In his left hand we find his favorite accessory, PanzerFaust, an all-purpose magnetic Hand Driver complete with spiky clip-ons; an absolute must for the smuggler-baron on the go. 

D-D-Drop Apotheosis

Helloooo friends! I'm dropping the culmination of my recent hotel project, a large scale Illustration entitled "The Interlopers." This piece is my contribution to the ongoing conversation between artists who, over the years, have added works to this sub-category of populace, isometric illustration. Moebius and Darrow first come to mind, masters that they be, but too children's material such as Full Moon Soup and Where's Waldo have captured my imagination as long as I've been eyeballed. Mind you, I'm not raising this pastiche to the heights of Moebius -praise be his name- but why not throw my hat into the ring? Imitation is, after all, mans biological destiny, spreading ever outward from our first rheumy gurglings. Who by gods am I to betray this noble tradition?! Nobody, that's who. Hail Moebius, His name, His glory...

12 Reasons to Die

This is the cover for 12 Reasons to Die, a new comic coming out in May. It coincides with an impending Ghostface Killah concept album, is published by a newer company called Black Mask and written by Matthew Rosenberg & Patrick Kindlon.

Picture-wise it's turned out to be a whole slumgullion of artist packed into the 1st issue. The cover here is featuring crackerjack Christopher Mitten (30 Days of Night) and also I draw stuff in it too. It's set out to be a 6 issue run and theoretically I'll be doing parts of all of 'em. So yeah, pick it up when it drops, look for me and be merry.

The Interlopers

So this is uncolored linework for the last of the hotel pieces. The actual picture is 24x18 so the resolution on this posted image will be somewhat less than adequate. Oh well.

Good Society...

Re-reposting these images as they were just accepted into the 2013 Society of Illustrators Student Scholarship competition. As I did these two last year whilst still in school they remained eligible for entry even after I graduated n' stuff.

Unfortunately, when displaying my works on the Society website, they got my name, instructor and the actual color of the art allll wrong; a most charming fait accompli. Nevertheless, below you may find the link to the other current/matriculated SVA students on the Societies docket. It's all fantastic work.
