For those of you who are wondering how I’m getting around after my recent surgery, it’s going something like this. You cannot stand still, or let minor inconveniences slow you down! Gotta keep moving! Keep running the race!

“Bugs Bunny” Dell comics 1952 recreation. Did you know that “Bugs” real name is George Washington Bunny? That he was the first cartoon character to be put on a postage stamp? That he has a star on the Hollywood walk of fame? See? Learn something new everyday!
For all you Disney/Donald Duck lovers – I finished the recreation of the old Dell comics “Walt Disney’s Comics and Stories” of this cover from 1945, by Carl Barks. I will have it with me when I’m at the Seven Cedars Fall Festival Sept. 6th 120 John Mowry road, Smithfield, RI. Stop by and see me!
Just finished some Old School inks for this throwback cover of Walt Disney Comics from 1945! I haven’t pulled out the ole’ dip pens for quite some time, but I do think it’s important to preserve (and use) the old methods. This will be particularly true when the machines/AI take over and no longer allow us to create our own art!
Here is the finished color cover from the cover I did in my latest Manga class
As promised (to my students) here is the full set – from pencils to inks to full color for the “Tales to Astonish” No. 14. I’ll have the Manga cover done soon. Stay tuned!
Here are the inks for a couple of pieces I did last week. The first, “Tales to Astonish” is a commission piece. The second, “Curse of the Serpent” was done for last weeks class, ‘Penciling for Graphic Novels.’
The students got to see the completed pencils, but wanted to see the full inks, so I’m posting this for them. I know they’re looking – ‘cuz I can hear them breathing on the screen!
These are photos of the inks. I will be posting the scanned inks, as well as the full color versions. It takes time, so stop pressuring me!
