Pellinore

this is the first page of a comic I started based of a short poem I wrote inspired by t.h.white's The Once and Future King. Obviously theres a lot of Mike Mignola influence going on in the drawing. The poem I wrote:

Too long a been a huntin'
I cannot hunt no more
My eyes are dim and weary
My feet are hurt and sore
Too many nights too many days
My search has been in vain
The Questin' Beast will have to die
of loneliness and pain.

color version coming soon.

Final 2 comics


I feel like my life is a constant test of how much I can do at the last minute. It's always been the way i've worked I think it always will be. The submission is due today at five. I did these both last night. I had fun on this project but i'm glad it's over, back to elephants.

Moleskin

I am awful at working on one thing straight through. I get bored with a project very easily, especially once I feel i've conquered my technique for either the character or the technique. So i jump around from project to project alot. When I to get determined to do a project (like this comic for the post) i put all other projects on hold and it drives me insane. My moleskin is my escape, i don't feel guilty sketching in that when I should be working. These two characters lead to another project idea, the stack continues to grow, one day, one will be finished.

Braveheart

I picked up a pencil after watching Braveheart. I'm pretty sure I shoulda known this would happen. I'd like to see him fight the wind prince (MICA inside joke).

Comic 4

This is the second doctor gag. I like where the characters expressions and body motions are going. I think i'm still lacking in things like my handwriting and emotions with the type. Two more to go. Maybe one day i'll do the rest of the doctor ones, the best ones were further down the line.

Comic 3

I wrote a whole string of these doctor gags. Unfortunately the post only requires 6 strips and I think it's more important to show a variety rather then the same string so I could only finished two of the doctor strips, this is the first.

Second Comic

This is comic number two. Hopefully it explains a bit about these alien folk. I must say i'm getting tired of this project already and wanna go back to the elephants. I'm determined to finish though.

One More Time

The more I looked at and thought about the first comic I did the more I hated it. I decided that it wasn't something I wanted my name attached to. I didn't like the inking, the backgrounds, and overall I just didnt' think it looked professional. I decided to bump up the size I worked on and had another go. I must say I'm pleased with the result and feel I can move on now.
