Hey everyone. Been busy this week finishing things on my massive TO DO list, in preperation for the MSU COMIC FORUM appearanc this weekend. Details on that HERE
First of all, working on potential base card art for my Pinup/Pitbulls card set. I got this piece done:
Which is cool, but I kinda want to re-draw it and make it look like the cover to an old pulp style book. I've always had in my head a series of sci-fi themed anthology comics similar to what we do with TALES OF SEQUENTIAL MAYHEM. Maybe I could do something with her. I love drawing girls with animals. Anna Pocalypse has a cat with her. This space girl has a pitbull. Maybe they go on crazy space adventures together. Maybe she's an alien herself. Who knows. All I know is I drew her today and I'm asking "who are you?" to her. Maybe soon she will answer. Another pot on the stove.
I finally sat and watched the Guardians of the Galaxy trailer. Admittedly, I know nothing of the comics or the characters involved with it. But I do know James Gunn, the director. I've followed his work since his Troma days, co-writing "TROMEO & JULIET." After viewing the trailer, I can see that indeed he has come a long way. But he always gives it back to the old days of Troma. He's one of the good guys in cinema and endlessly entertaining. Good work sir. You have sold me a ticket.
I did some purchasing this week. I ordered some new books from Amazon, including the newest Neil Gaiman novel (FINALLY) and another Invincible Hardcover. I also stocked up on art supplies and got a couple new shirts to go into my rotation. The weather seems to be getting a bit better so I am looking forward to actually stepping out into the world today and seeing whats crack-a-lackin'.
But of course I shall come home to the long list of TO DO and keep chipping away at its contents. I miss the days where I was way ahead of everything I needed to do. But it feels good to know that I keep the lists and never get behind. Anything self imposed tends to lose steam but anything assigned is always ahead. Good idea! I also have some commissions to finish and start on. Busy week!
See you all at the MSU Comics Forum!
Peace and Love, T
