Today's Art-ifact

The deleted angle/scene to 'Three to Tango', in blues.  Dave decided to redraw it with Lilith facing the viewer.  2014

Three To Tango

I was looking through the folders of potential 'art-ifacts', and noticed that this three page commission comic featuring the Indigos teaching Lilith how to dance never left our gates.  Well, here it is, and I'll include a deleted page/angle as a part of the Patrons' daily art-ifacts to keep it fair.  Crea...

Prelude 378

What's with the stork lady's reaction?   The other two shoppers are a bit clueless regarding Willy's, but clearly she knows something.

Flashback Photo Friday

Ohio, 2009

This was an idea that became reality - a framed multi-layered three dimensional map of the dreamworld for our wall. (including the city of Anduruna)

A little gold leaf was added to give some shine to the paper compass.

Set in a sawed off float frame, 3d pictures are very easy to make.

 The trickiest part is getting Staples to print 2 large pieces of paper correctly with your file on it, but it can be done.  The rest was on a home printer.

Because reading, amirite?

Today's Art-ifact

This sketch of Kalei is one of a hundred different sketches given to our backers from a 2015 Kickstarter.

Double Vision: Death, Hope, and Diamond

To highlight the brainless punch line that is the current state of affairs in the comics industry, let's examine two problems side by side.

First a stores problem- then a creators problem.

Comic stores are in fear of mass closings.  

This seems to fly in the face of the public numbers and press releases.  Diamond Comics, the monolith that effectively controls distribution, claims ever-higher sales in their shareholder-friendly industry rep...

Firebrat Promo 2

Putting out another teaser for Firebrat- 

I'm really excited for this book, it's not like anything we've published before.   True Christmas Magic.   

I thought it would be fine to market to kids, but Liz has taken that as proof that I shouldn't babysit.

Tinsel SKIRMISH poses

The image says 'Vote', but we're keeping the link reserved for the SKIRMISH backers.

Even so, you guys are backing our efforts- so check out the concept art so far! 

Yes, we have 5 options for Tinsel when everyone else only had 3.

It was in her contract- working with celebrities is rough.

Prelude 377

It doesn't necessarily smell awful- but it's very distinctive, and people in the area know it means he's basically blacklisted by the local 'Marks.   So help at your own peril.

...Kinda like the fictional equivalent of shadowbanning!  Only there's transparency to the process in fantasy-land.

SKIRMISH original art- Bast

Quick sample from SKIRMISH art for you guys- Bast, blowing some things up.    It's a riot spicing up the art for his deck.   Currently finishing the lineart for Scuttles' deck as well.  

Well, technically today I'm drawing Prelude, but Scuttles is the most recent SKIRMISH penciling we accomplished.

Also, look out for the Q&A voting on Business and Character questions tomorrow.  I've been trying repeatedly to post those, but there's some glitch that ...

Another pencil commission from a convention.   Had to get this one up while it was still summer.

August Q&A Voting- Lore

 Time to tackle the monthly Q&A. I'm doing one post for each category, because we ran out of room on the poll for everything.  ^ ^;

If you already know the answer to a question, and post that in the comments, it will make it easier for people to vote on something unknown.

(Note- I tweaked categories on a couple of these to try and make them more accurate.)

Q & A- Ask here

Let's try this out- what would you like to know?

Submit your questions for the monthy Q&A in the comments below.  Then later, we'll assemble a poll, and the most voted-for questions will be addressed.  8 ) 

We'll answer at least one question each in the categories of Business, Lore, and Character.
