MMM-HMMM....

YEAH, YEAH

I know you all thought I been slackin' this whole time.

In acuality I have been dealing with real life. You know jobs,

kids, no money. All that good stuff.

Lets see, good news? I have a new story being published in an

anthology from redwolfstudios called BURST. The anthology is

going to debut at this years BALTI-CON. So this October attend

the Batimore Comic Convention and pick up your copy of BURST!!!

Bad news? I dont see your comments anywhere on this blog....

get busy!!!!

the TRIPTYCH

This is actually 3 separate pieces that make one illustration.

It began as a promotional piece when I first started the

COCKERS series. I was so excited with the series I drew this

out in a few days. Below are close ups of each section cuz I know

you cant really see whats goin on in this little ass photo....

DETAILS-1

The beginning is sometimes the hardest.

I wasnt sure where to place each cocker, what pose to put them in

or how to build the rest of the triptych behind them. I think this came out okay,

the next one I do will start out a bit differently......

DETAILS-2

This is the middle piece which employs many of the

supporting cast in the COCKERS series. There is JONESI the homeless

dog down at the left, beside him is orphan ANNIE and her little stuffed bear

Mr. POOPERS.

ANNIE is allergic to the mist in MYSTY CITY so she has to wear this breathing suit

that is like a big inhaler. Above them is PAT NIMASANG of NIMASANGS tea emporium.

The other characters are underground heroes who will debut later...

DETAILS-3

This is the final piece of the total work.

I felt it was appropriate to have al the bad guys at the end.

This being a COCKERS property all of the villians will be revealed

in later issues of COCKERS. I suppose everyone should know the

DEADLY FLUFFY by now, the characters that are in similar uniforms

are his evil group the CRIMSON SCARE. The big bug in the background

is SIMON the DEADLY FLEA, another of ULTIMOS arch nemeses.

One day Im gonna get some color on this thing and make it a huge poster...

ultimo UNBOUND

GIRLSTRIPSCOCKERS?

SUPPORTING-CAST

the SCENTED WONDER

This is a sketch of everyones favorite stinky hero..

Ultimah

In my effort to create a character who was just as
dynamic as Ultimo I ended up going no further than Ultimo himself.
Ultimah is Ultimo from another reality. If you are a comic book reader already this will make sense, if not bear with me. In the realm of science fiction some believe that there are alternate realities that exist parallel to our own where each person or creature in this universe has an evil twin or whatever. Anyhow, Ultimah isnt evil in fact the only difference is that shes a she. She has all the same powers as Ultimo and she can have a litter of puppies too, how cool is that?

SKETCHBOOK

A SKETCHBOOK

used to be such a huge staple in my artistic arsenal.
it was able to contain all of my wildest imaginings within its pages.
i had all kinds: spiral, hardback, 11x 17 and the different paper textures?
man, kid inna candy store, that was me.
nowadays though i prefer the looseleaf method of drawing on single pages.
this watercolor of the AMERICAN CRAB was done a few years ago and i was pretty
happy with it...
