work wise things were a bit busy as i was building up the coffers for the home purchase – but now are dying down just a little. on top of my max finder monthly gig, of which i will share some are eventually, i worked on a chapter book of a series titled rink rats for scholastic canada – it was fun doodling our unofficial national sport as i have never played it outside of on the road between passing cars. as well an interesting little gig popped up as well, actually make that three, for marvel; a two page sequential sequence for a aafes (army & air force exchange service) history comic starring captain america and the avengers, four pages for an aafes colouring book, and finally a two page sequence featuring logan and the winter soldier for a hulked out wolvie and cap comic currently on the shelves! on top of all that last month, the icing on the cake was a cover and interior piece for a insurance magazine… for which i decided to dust off the watercolours and do wash painting, the results of which are up top.
whew.
as i said things are winding down. yesterday i was able to sit and start roughing out the end of kukuburi volume 1, for which i am pretty excited to wrap up… a special thanks for all my readers and their patience. i plan to illustrate and finish most of the pages before i begin updating again so there will be no more interuptions!
kukuburi aside i also received a call from one of my favourite editors, mr. abernathy of wildstorm comics, to ink the book kane and lynch over chris mitten’s amazing pencils. chris’s pencils arrived today and i’m truly looking forward to the challenge of inking them.
my most exciting new though, i can’t quite share yet, a writer of awesomeness whom i admire very much requested me as artist for a project slated for next year some time. i wish i could say more… maybe i can? …best to play it safe for now… i’ll share when i can
