Hey guys! So the reason for the lack of posts was somewhat due to the game pitch I was developing and the comic I was working on for Cloudscapes newest anthology, 22 Journeys. The new book is coming out in March for those interested. I thought I'd post a couple pages here for a quick sneak peak. Kevin scripted this new story as well! I hope you guys get to read it and enjoy. These scenes take place in the evening!

Some quick concepts for a new comic I'm working on with Kevin Forbes.  It's going to be the most ambitious piece either of us has ever done, so I'm really looking forward to it.  We will be releasing it in manageable portions  so stay posted:)

More Life!

Who wants to draw LIFE?  Guess I do:)  Anyway.... just a couple doodles from the last couple months.  I'll try to be more frequent and maybe even rock a little more finesse in my page layouts from now on.  These are anywhere from 30 sec to 5 min!  

Hey everyone!  Haha I just posted this in the wrong order so here's the fixed version:)  I did this comic for the new Cloudscape anthology coming out this spring.  Kevin Forbes wrote this diddy and I added some doodles.  Hope ya diggit!  Chow.

A couple more lunch doodles!

Said I'd post some new sketch's so here they is.  Mostly doodles!  I'm currently working on a little 3 page comic for an anthology my work homey Kevin Forbes got me into so I'll throw that on here when it's done. Beans!

Just a memory sketch form lunch break. More sketch's to come soon.

Just a doodle, rip'n Jeffs style and falling dreadfully shy:)

Here's just a few of the poses I sketched up for Toro's game play, based on Jeff Agala's design. Toro being the boss character in the game play demo I just posted. We showed off the playable demo at pax on Laybour day and got some very positive responses. Sadly I couldn't be there. I animated all the characters and fx except for the 3 hit frwd moving gun combo which Jeffery stole from me and looks great:) Anyway should have more game poses etc in the future.
