Mock-Up Cover Page

Just completed a mock up cover for my own story

Done with pitt pens and greyscale pro markers.

No prizes for guessing the setting of the story or who I would love to publish it under.

**Image Edited - Someone on DW noticed Military was spelled wrong**

Enjoy:

Page 2 complete!

Ok, starting to make some progress now. I'm not even near where I'd like to be, in terms of quality.
But Adam Hughes always says great art comes from an "extreme amount of self-loathing". :)

Enjoy page 2!

Kapow!... Oww.... that hurt!

It has just dawned upon me.

Kapow! comic convention is exactly one month away!
I regretfully missed the first Kapow! convention due to ticket sell outs so I made sure to purchase tickets nice and early this year.

However with only one month left to go, there isn't much time to get a portfolio together for publishers/fellow artists/editors to view!

So this is the goal - one month to produce 7 pages of art and possibly a coloured and lettered preview book.

Currently, I am one and a bit pages done... time to definitely get a move on.

Jonathan Hickman

A college at work has kindly lent me the Pax Romana trade by Jonathan Hickman (thanks Adam).

Mr Hickman is a great example of a one man band in comic creation and he has done exceptionally well in the comics biz.

I look forward to reading this!

Opening Post!

So here goes... The first post of my new blog.

This blog will will be focused on my artwork, in particular the development of creator owned graphic novels and stories.

I'm new to blogger and will be trying to improve the layout and look of the blog.

Currently I'm working on a Creator Owned storie currently named "Clandestine".
I will also try to post tips I've found helpful in creating comics.

For now I'll post a picture. Nothing particularly new.
