James Bong...licence to chill

Hey everyone! Here's the latest update. I'm currently working on a 'James Bong' story for GMP, the first page of which can be seen below. I'm also gonna throw in a panel from page 2 just cuz it cracks me up everytime I look at it!

I'm a bit worried that its starting to look like I'm channelling J. Scott Campbell, but that seems to be what happens when I go for a more 'cartoony' type of look. Regardless, I'm having a blast drawing it, and I hope it shows.

REMINDER! I'll be at the fan Expo here in Toronto this weekend, so please do drop by if you can and say hello. I'm in artist alley, just not sure where exactly yet. There's your challenge...try and track me down!!

Cheers,

Judge Dredd for Zarjaz...

Hi gang, just a quick sneak peak at a page for the next 'Zarjaz' issue (#8) .

This is probably for me, one of the best and funniest Dredd stories I've read in a long time. Paul Glasswell wrote it, and he knocked it out of the park. I think that it would have been in 2000ad were it not for the content of the story...*hint* it involves Dredd's bodily (baby making) fluids!

Its due to be out in about a month or so. More details can be found over here http://thequaequamblog.blogspot.com/

Cheers!

The best part of working in Comics.

I'm back from my vacation, now another year older and raring to go!!

One of the best aspects of comics (IMHO) is that you get to work with many other talented folks -writers,editors and artists. I often find with some of my favorite creators, the resulting combinations makes the overall product better. ( Think Byrne/Austin and Morrison/Quitely) case in point for me is Gary Erskine. Gary's a very nice pro inker and artist who has inked over me in the past and has recently done it again. I can't show you the whole pages or the folks at 'Wasted' magazine http://www.badpressltd.com/index.php would probably kill me, but check out a panel of my pencils and then again with Gary's inks on it.

Pretty cool eh? To the untrained eye they probably look exactly the same, but they are not. Gary does neat little things to her hair, making it look more 'hair like' . Also her arm band has a texture of worn leather instead of looking just like her boots for example. Small stuff, but it helps to make what I intended look better to the reader and gives the person reading the book a better bang for their buck- even if they don't realise it.

Cheers to Gary! I love working with pro inkers.. ;-)

Also... in a first for me, I have just listened to my first 'audio' review! While I wasn't mentioned by name, the overall review for Zarjaz #7 was positive ,and they loved the 'tidal wave of werewolves' page which can be seen in the Slaine post down below.

The review is here:
