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!

Keep the pencil on the paper!

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?).

Keep the pencil on the paper!

Page Dos (Warm Ups Vol. 1.14)

Page two of Sithrah has been posted. Check it out.

What is Sithrah? It's Jason Brubaker's latest graphic project.

Who is Jason Brubaker you ask?

Why he's the creator of the graphic novel Remind, distributed freely over the web and then later printed into two beautiful hard bound books.

I really loved Remind and so far Sithrah is not disappointing. Beyond all that, Jason is an incredibly nice guy. Back when he was creating Remind and working a full time job, he still found time to get involved with the indy comic community and provided a forum geared towards graphic novel creation. Several months past, Jason realized he didn't the bandwidth to really push the community as he envisioned so he handed over the reins to an entire team of awesome people, who are now running MakingComics.com.

So in a way, Jason is partially-indirectly responsible for my two month daily sketching routine.

Draw like you mean it!
