Slam Evil!

What a terrible fucking tagline. Been a while, sorry. Been working on getting my podcast together.  You can find my podcast at www.guttertrash.net. It’s a swell podcast, with our first official episode being recorded on September 16th. To be released shortly thereafter. We’ll see when, then I’ll try to make that the regular upload day. …

This is the Beginning…

…of this blog! I explained myself ad nauseam over at my old blog page. But this is where you can check out new pieces of art (or really old pieces that I tell you are new) from yours truly. Cover your eyes. If you look too long, you’ll grow better taste for comic art, and …

Hawkgirl (30)

I’m old today. This is definitely not where I saw myself at the age of 30. 2008 has been a definite shit year for me, mostly of my own design. The comic thing is still a definite goal for me, but I work slowly. I want my projects to mean something personally to me. I …

Fuck yeah.

Blue Beetle by Mike Norton

This’n’s a bit different. There’s an awesome comic artist by the name of Mike Norton whose work you can find at www.ihatemike.com. Mike and I both have a love for Blue Beetle, and while doing a random google search for Blue Beetle art, I stumbled upon this con-sketch Mike had done for someone: I thought …

Magneto

Wanted to try a more traditional pen and ink illustrative style, with shadows and highlights, midtones, etc. Took a long time, especially for an impatient spastic like me. I did a lot of this while watching The Departed. Good film. Don’t know why it took so long to watch it. I even really liked Leonardo …

Hulks

I drew the original about two years ago, and thought I had lost it. Since I’ve recently discovered it again, I decided to colorize it. Then I decided the Variant Hulks needed representing. Dunno why. It was a time killer. I’m so alone.
