more sketchbook nonsense comics, hence the illegibility. if anyone wants to translate, be my guest.

couldn't fall asleep and i had a 03 marker and a pad near the bed so i doodled a bit. then read some instructions on how to skin a deer, fell asleep and dreamt nice things.

trying to sneak in some background back into them.

little cover thumbnails- i guess i can post these but i'm not sure i can talk about them.

(repost, 27% larger, also larger than original at this point)

tech note

2009-12-13T22:24:00.003+01:00

for those not visiting the blog from some kind of a reader program, you'll notice the slight layout change- the images will now be a bit larger (470px -> 600px) and a few other minor things. those with reader programs will just notice the larger pictures!

to contradict myself

2009-12-09T20:08:00.002+01:00

but it's okay since it's not a spoiler in any way.

book cover... 11?

2009-12-07T23:51:00.002+01:00

since i don't want to put up any of port silver, it'll be random tidbits until next week-- by then i'll start on the next marvel thing and maybe that'll provide some interesting stuff. today, cover sketches for another book. the lower two were approved.

what a break looks like:

2009-12-06T00:14:00.004+01:00

this stack covers the last month and a half, maybe two. about... 170 cm high. need more shelves in this place!

100 (whee)

2009-10-15T19:04:00.003+02:00

so it's been a hundred weeks! too tired at the moment to feel particularly festive; maybe in a few weeks, when it's two full years? below are all of them so far, not clickable, but soon available on the website (when it's done- couple of weeks, i'd say). highlights? the president asked if he could have his portrait- that's not bad, i'd say =)

p.s. 100 consecutive thursdays! well, i actually did miss one-- greetings go to the crabby employee of air france which made us miss the flight this june! thanks for ruining my track record!

100-1

2009-10-08T16:43:00.001+02:00

one more to 100, five to full two years.

so, yeah

2009-10-06T18:03:00.004+02:00

-i've finished drawing marvel divas. it's been quite an experience, with the hottest summer ever, and the shortening deadlines, but it's there. the longest thing so far. a lot was learned about a lot of things, and who knows what's next.

well, port silver. and a few things. but after that, who knows!

monday it is

2009-09-28T19:44:00.002+02:00

the last monday i spend drawing divas. that's a pretty expensive dress, by the way, and the shoes- first pair of blahniks in the whole book. unbelievable but true.

2009-09-25T14:38:00.001+02:00

another miniscule drawing, a future space epic

2009-09-24T19:36:00.000+02:00

only three more, luckily time won't be so tight on them.

looking at the deadline, probably...

hidden homage

2009-09-22T00:11:00.002+02:00

the first inked (and cropped) panel of issue 4. i love drawing shelves full of books, which doesn't mean i'm fast at it. this probably took an hour to ink. but it's one of the ways to sneak in hand lettering in the pages! the homage bit is too obscure- maybe two people will see it.

monday monday... fun to ink, but not too fast

waiting

2009-09-18T04:09:00.002+02:00

a couple of guys from the same piece of scrap paper lying around

100-4

2009-09-17T20:57:00.003+02:00

the deadline was half an hour this time so i had to go with the first sketch... on a different note, stubble going gray is quite hard to draw and all these people seem to be covered with it.

thumbnails

2009-09-16T01:48:00.001+02:00

these are about five times larger here

orange book again

2009-09-15T16:08:00.003+02:00

at some point i'd stopped liking sketchbooks, but now i seem to have four going at the moment. two or three of which are very specific, at least.
