Red Headed Step Child.

Whoops.  Blog's been a bit neglected the last few weeks, hasn't it?  Sorry for the lack of updates.  I promise I'll have some sketches up this weekend.  Life has been kicking my ass...

Heroes Dump

Well...it's been 24 hours since Heroes Con ended.  It was a bit slow this year, but it's still a fun show, and I really enjoyed all of the people I met.  I got to meet art heroes of mine like Kristian Donaldson, Toby Cypress, Declan Shalvey, and Becky Cloonan.  They were very nice, and of course, their art was just sick. Special thanks to Declan for portfolio critique.  He was very generous with his time and advice, and very encouraging.  It was also amazing talking to Toby.  Very nice guy.  I hope to do it again soon.  Devin of the Dollar Bin Podcast (which you should totally be listening to) was super fun to hang with.  Drunken anime conversations have never been so cool.  Also, a special shout out to Kim and Tony.  Unfortunately, I didn't get you guys' last names, but you were very fun to hang with, and I definitely feel like I made new friends.  And now on to the show.....

Here's a couple shots from the Batman villains jam piece the studio and I did for the guys over at the Dollar Bin Show.  I was the Mister Freeze on top.

And the only 2 sketches I was commissioned the entire show.  Still, these are great guys, and man do they ask for some fun sketches.  I mean come on!  How often do you get to draw Typing of the Dead!?  Ill be getting decent scans of these later, so I'll post 'em then.

And here is the piece I did for this year's art auction.  I've never actually participated, so I was pretty nervous about it.  It didn't get into the big auction, but someone did buy it in the silent auction, so it's pretty cool.  The money goes to toward covering the incredible cost of running the convention.

Welp!  That's it for now.  Hope you guys enjoyed this...well, whatever this is.

Banner Fail

So....Due to an unfortunate shipping error made by the printing company, our banners didn't arrive until today....the day after Heroes Con...it's like the world just wants to laugh at me.  At least the quality on mine came out pretty decent.  Gotta say I'm happy with the end result, even though it was late.  So this is what you should be on the lookout for at future cons (minus the weird looking black kid and the super ghetto chairs and door mat in the background).

Heroes Con 2011

Hey guys!  I'll be at Heroes Con again this year.  I've been too dumb to announce it on my blog in the past, so this year I'm going to do it differently.  I'll be doing sketches and commissions, and I'll also have 11x17 prints for sale, so please feel free to swing by and say Hi!  I won't bite....I promise....well...unless you're a rogue cheeseburger.

Unfortunately, the banners that I and the rest of 803 Studios made won't be present at this years Heroes Con.  There was an mistake that happened between the printer and UPS, so all of our banners are late.  It'sucks, I know, but AM still posting what the finished product will be because I think it looks really cool.  I can't wait till we do get these things.  *NOTE* - There isn't actually a white border around this.  I had to add one and give the image a black stroke so you guys could see what the actual thing would look like.
