Been busy as can be finishing up this two ish Deadpool arc. I'll be done Monday. YEAH! The i'll be doing a DP short for Deadpool #900. This book is going to be amazing! I get to share pages with Dave Johnson, Kyle Baker, Jason Aaron, Mike Benson, Duane Swierczynski, and many others. This is one of those books that i just love to see on the shelves. Hopefully i don't look too bad next to that crowd.

Process looksee

2009-05-27T10:26:00.003-05:00

Here's some thumbs and pencils. Thumbs are about 2 inches tall and take about an hour. Pencils about 8 inches tall, and take about 3 hours.

Getting my process nailed down...

2009-05-22T14:23:00.002-05:00

As you may have seen, i have been doing mu thumbnails/pencils together, and small. That sped me up a good but, BUT made that stage so labor-some. A friend of mine, a cartoonist i respect - Pat Bollin, suggested i to a quick small thumbnail before i do the small pencils. It sounded like a good idea. I could figure out the puzzle of the page, spot my blacks, and spot my word balloons. I gave it a try today, and BAM! I'm flying. Another weight has been lifted. Just hoping it all comes together in the final stage...INKS! Fingers crossed. I'll be done penciling this issue late next week. Inks to follow.

A good friend of Mine, Jamaal Bradley, is an animator/ animation director. He's worked for Sony feature and currently works for Valve. Please check out his blog for the latest trailer to Team Fortress, a trailer which Jamaal co directed. I stand in awe of Jamaal's talent and accomplishments. He's a good friend and a great cartoonist. I'm lucky to know people like this...

A little homage to Loony Toons and Pixar's "For the Birds." It's nice to be working on a book where this stuff is acceptable. Thanks to Brunner for the idea swipe:P

Thanks to any and all who came out.

Where have I been?

2009-05-09T11:20:00.004-05:00

Working hard. I am finally at the point where i am eliminating a stage in my process. I am combining the thumbnail stage and pencils stage. So, i'm basically inking my thumbnails which are now larger, about 8 inches tall. INks are still 11 X 17. Here's the first results of that..
As long as this keeps going well, my production speed will be FAST. It's also more fun when you can draw in your inking phase...

Grinding to meet my first weekly deadline...

He's BACK!

Now with more meat and attitude to boot. Just finished the pencils on page 1...

NEXT!

Starting my next Marvel job. Can't say much, but it's deadpool. Here's a thumbnail. I'm really trying to eventually eliminate the pencil phase of my work flow, or at least get it down to a minimal mount of time. These thumbs look like they'll only take a few hours to pencil, once i blow em up and light box em. Look CAN be deceiving. Thee things are about 3.5 inches tall. We'll see. I'll post the process as i go.

Still pushing the shapes, and the balance between simple shapes and complex interior info. Lately, i've been really seeing the importance of a simple silhouettes (Shapes) with complex interior information. Thats the dance.
