So I read this awesome little book called the Walking dead and it is awesome. I love the story, I love the art, Adlard does some cool stuff, the greyscales are done by Cliff Rathburn, he’s this super-talented dude who can do anything, pencil, ink, color, he can do it all and do it WELL. He inked 4 of issues of Invincible for me and I learned quit a bit from him. ANYWAY, he also does back covers on the Walking dead. I love drawing zombies, for some reason nasty rotting things are so fun to draw! SO I drew this Zombie here and Cliff will soon be inking it and greyscaling it and it will be on the back of an upcoming Walking dead issue. Can’t wait to see it finished.

And it only seemed fitting to use my signature from the 90’s. heh.

Here is the sketch to pencils to inks for this splash page in issue 34. Yeah the Gaurdians of the globe look much different then they normally do, are they from the FUTURE?!? read it, you’ll see why.

I don’t do thumbnail sketches very much anymore except for splash pages like this and covers. I use the thumbnail to get a feel for what I want, then I draw it again on large bristol board, I usually keep the pencils loose, this time they are pretty tight. I ink using a Rapheal #2 brush, Hunt 102 pen nib, Staedtler and Pitt pens. Then I scan it and send it off to be colored, then I kiss it and throw in my ever growing stack of pages.

My old website is gone!!!!!! Yeah, it was old and I never updated it anyway, so I thought I’d get one of these blog thingies that are all the rave these days. Someday I’ll get a site set up that has some galleries and all that but right now I’ll have fun with this. I’ll be posting often, things I’m working on, things I do just for fun. You’ll see alot of Invincible work, and maybe I’ll post some of that Superman/Batman stuff too, and other stuff I’m doing on the side for fun. So to start this thing off here is some art that no one has seen yet. The cover to Invincible 38. Later.
