FLUKE Anthology!

So, this year's FLUKE Mini-Comics & Zine festival has come and gone. I didn't have much there new to sell except for a few drawings, but this year's FLUKE comics anthology did consist of a book-length story I wrote and loosely penciled. Here's the cover-
It features a lot of Athens/Atlanta folks on inking it and making every page their own.

Georgia Magazine Music Issue

I illustrated the cover to the most recent Georgia Magazine, UGA's alumni magazine. This is their music issue, with a mess of articles about the local music scene in Athens.

The Many Moods of Eddie

The list of facial expressions was lifted from Jack Hamm's "Cartooning the Head and Figure", which is a great lil' instructional book on cartooning.

A STICK UP!

So this might be the last of the Eddie's Week preview panels I'll be posting. Why?

I'm going to go back and redraw the damn thing again.

I was only eleven pages in and wasn't happy with the lines I was making with the pens I swore myself to using for this project. Instead, I'm starting from page one with a kind of pen that I'm comfortable with. And the end product will look better and I can get Eddie's Week done faster. Seriously. Eleven pages in. That's nothing.

Let's Hope.

The background to this is a black colored pencil scanned in as line art. It kinda had the desired effect I was going for, kinda not.

Also, I have an awful cold right now. Well, the worst part was on Tuesday and it's going away, but still. It was a real ass kicker. Now the rest of my family's sick. Woe is us.

Eating Schedule.

Sorry. It's been about a month since I've posted anything, but I have a few projects I've been fiddling with, like a local alumni magazine cover and doing layouts for a comic some friends in town will ink. Also, after coming in from work and seeing the kids off to bed, some nights I'm too tired to draw. I just make a cup of tea and read until midnight. 17 year old me would be ashamed. But then, I would punch 17 year old me first since I was such a brooding self-conscious wallflower then. 17 year old me needed a punching.
