peck in SF this weekend

If you make it out to WonderCon this weekend, please come by and visit me in Artist Alley (AA#142). I will be there on Friday and Saturday with some nice crisp issues of Peck.

peck link soon

I will be posting a link for the mass release of Peck Issue #1 as soon as I can get Comixpress to list it. Stay tuned!

buttons pas

Some samples of past buttons. I'm going to resurrect a few of the character buttons. Billy for sure!

button 1

Here's a button I'll be handing out at WonderCon. A few more designs to come.

cover art done

Seems like the details sometimes take the longest. I am feeling very good about issue 1's new cover. Phew!

color's halfway there …

I love this part of the process. You get to watch it come alive right before your eyes.

art flatted

Placeholder color flatted in. I will pull out the details of windows and other objects after I light the general scene. Should be pretty dramatic with underlighting from the right bottom corner.

grayscale done. color time.

Time to bring it all together.

cover 02

Here we are in "Peking Man" stage. As the drawing is fully fleshed out, I will downplay some of the things that are getting way too much air time (i.e., the window behind him, the drainage pipe, etc).
