T-Minus Nine (Warm Ups Vol. 1.21)

Only Nine days remain until the McMooc launches. I better read the required pre-read material. What Is a Graphic Novel by Jessica Abel and Taste Vs. Ability by Ira Glass and Mark Leutke. Well, I've already read the second article, but I'll re-read the pre-read. That's right. Over achiever here.

Keep the pencil on the paper!

Buzz Kill! (Warm Ups Vol 1.19)

I decided to deviate from my usual format and post four warm ups this go. Why? Just cause. Also, in the comments on my previous post, Mark from Random Diversions challenged me to draw the sword of bees. Hmm.. a plain two-handed sword. Plain is my speciality! Trying to learn something in the process I decided to use a reference. Credit to Space Mullet by the extremely talented Daniel Warren Johnson. Click the Space Mullet  link and start reading. See if you can find the image I used as reference (it shouldn't be hard). I'm up to chapter 2 and it's been a really good read so far. Really good! Also, you can learn more about the man behind the comic on this makingcomics.com podcast. Seems like a pretty cool dude.

Keep the pencil on the paper!

Overtaken! (Warm Ups Vol. 1.17)

This is my 23rd post of 2014. February is nearly done and I've already had more posts this trip around Sol than all of 2013. I also passed the fifty day mark for consecutive days of drawing. I'm feeling pretty good about twenty-fourteen so far. Alright. All done stroking the ego. Back to work!

And It's Gone (Warm Ups Vol. 1.16)

I think I had an idea for some words to go with this installment of my daily sketches.... but whatever it was, it pulled an Elvis and has left the building. I should really jot down a note when ideas come to me. Yah I know, further proof that I'm getting old. If only I had set a goal to draw every day a couple of decades ago.

Draw like you mean it!

Edumacation For Free (Warm Ups Vol. 1.15)

Wish there was a professional level course available on the topic of comic creation? Wish it didn't cost an arm and a leg? Wish granted. Go sign up for the McMooc. It is slated to begin the later part of March. I guarantee it'll be worth every penny (at the very least- did I mention it's completely gratis?).
