BLERD-ISH - mock cover

I did a cover commission for a friend's podcast.

I like how it came out. It got me noticed to do another podcast illustration that I'll be done with by X-mas.

Y'all want to see some process?

Here ya go:

digital sketch 01

digital sketch 02 (this is the one we went with)

pencil art - 11x17 on paper

pencil with trade dress mock up (also looks like a little corrections to the art, as well. I don't remember doing that.. heh!)

ink art with background. I did the building digitally and transferred it to paper. I like how it came out, but still talk myself out of doing backgrounds digitally for some reason.

Final colors without trade dress. 

I will show the new image when it is approved and okay to show. Thanks for indulging me.

Sweet Christmas!

MSAB Black Panther Screening Party

My Superheroes are BLACK!, a Facebook group, threw a viewing party for the release of Black Panther in movie theaters. I created a poster for the event. It was a blast to draw and a blast to attend. I'm glad it went over well.

Below are examples of the poster without the graphic elements and distressing in color...

... and in black and white.

I also created an isolated figure that was used for the tickets given at the theater and other favors at the party.

I don't know why I didn't post this first!

I did a cover for Fabulize Magazine's My Superheroes are Black! Special edition Mixtape issue. Here's the art without all the cover-ness.

If you don't remember, here's the other cover I did for Fabulize (gasp!) 3 years ago!

Happy New Year!

Goooooood evening!  G'd evening! G'd evening!

Been stupid busy.  Sorry for the silence.  Here's some of what I've been working on:

The picture above are from a short-story I just finished drawing written by Brandon Barrows.  It's going to appear in a comic anthology called Memoirs of the Mysterious.  It was hella fun working with Brandon and if I didn't scare him away, I'd like to do it again.

Next I did a poster with a group of kids in an After-School Program I work with and a bookmark I was commissioned to draw for a friend of mine from that same program (still not finished.)





I'm about to get started on a comic by David Rondinelli and another by Ron Kerronian while drawing  Shani and a Love's Sting sequel for July's Bloody Pulp Magazine.

Yeah... I'm busy.  ha ha ha..

I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

Hopefully, you'll see me again in less than a month, OH!.... and Happy New Year!
