Double Post!!

Even more majestic than a double rainbow is the double post! It's been a while since the last post (busyness at the business). Time for some sweet updating! I've met the iPad goal!! Thanks to all who purchased prints or commissions! Seriously, there's a star on the walk of fame in my heart with your names on it. You don't need to share, you each get one. BUT I'm not done, let the commissions continue! So here's the latest commission that helped get me to the goal.

Huge thanks to Brian who is an awesome comic book nerd and a pleasure to work with. Great guy who had nothing but awesome things to say.

Here's the original. You'll notice I took some liberties with color and such. I was excited to play with the pink and purple tones on this guy. I love how it turned out.

I did say double post. Well another project that helped reach the goal was actually based on an old piece I did. Super awesome dad, Dennis, wanted something special for his son and he is a creative guy and came up with the idea of a lightbox. Check out the final piece recently installed (it even changes color)!

Well, all that's left to say is we're waiting for a lull in workload so we can think about what we can do for the Chicago Comic Con this year (coming up in August). If you'll be in the area, drop on by! Have a most awesome day! Feel free to shoot me a message if you are interested in a commission of your own. It doesn't need to be a comic cover, almost anything you can think of. ALMOST. Click here for details.

How to be an AWESOME father #178

Today's example comes from Tom. Tom is not only leading his son correctly in the ways of nerdom, but he also commissioned me to create a Batman cover for his son. He wasn't exactly sure which one, so I had to throw out the first appearance of Batman, Detective Comics #27 if little Sean wanted some street cred. Little Sean surprisingly liked the cover so we proceeded. Little Sean is dripping of street cred and awesomeness AND check out his AWESOME AWESOME Bat-costume, err, vigilante attire! Thanks Tom and family for sending the feedback and positive response.You can also file this entry under How to be an AWESOME kid #24. Thanks guys! You rock! Below is the final piece I've been dying to share, but had to wait until Tom received his art first.

If you want to be like Tom or Sean and contribute to the iPad fund (click here to find out more), please let me know!

Loooong Overdue Update

I know it's been a while since I last posted (before today, since I just posted my Ghostbusters piece), so I want to make it up to you. As Mel, my wife, and I are prepping for Comic Con, I had a great idea for a piece. Well, I didn't get to it. Instead I worked on a few pieces that I've had in my head for a while. Here they are in all of their glory. I'll have to admit, I'm kinda loving the Spongebob. Enjoy!!

Deep in Thought - Joker Edition

Here's a quick piece I whipped up while my wife is out of town. It's a great quote from the Dark Knight. I love movie posters from the 60s so I thought it's be interesting to play on that. My original intention was to do this one similar to my wolverine quote, but I wanted to do something a little different. The colors are bit dark and desaturated here, but it'll be brighter by the time it gets to Comic Con. My spin That's all I have to say about that.
