LIVE! Scribbles with Jonathan says good-bye until 2011!

Hello everyone!

I wanted to make a quick post, letting everyone know that my UStream & Youtube shows will be back in January 2011! So, I hope everyone has a fantastic Christmas and Holiday Season!

P.S.!
This Thursday (Dec.23rd.2010) I will still be doing the free sketch give-a-way! Click all of this for more details.

Dragonken -in process

Wanted to toss up a concept I'm working on. Just more fun stuff :)

Scribbles With Jonathan-Episode 41, Creating a Comic Book Part 2

Sorry about the audio quality on this one. I'm trying to figure out how to solve the problem.

Thunder Breaker

Just finished a pretty quick design for a weapon, which will hopefully see the light of day in my fantasy book. This goes similar to the last blog post. Enjoy!

Gurah of the Thundermanes

Took some time this morning to do a quick sketch of a design I was thinking about in the shower today. This will more likely than not, be further designed upon later. But this is for my fantasy comic I'll be working on in the coming year.

This is Gurah of the Thundermanes. Enjoy!

Mutants & Masterminds 3rd Edition Art Preview #1

A friend notified me today that the Mutants and Masterminds company made a blog post about some of the concept art I did for the new book. Here is a link to check out the art, as well as check out information about the book!

Uh oh. . .

Cataclysm dropped today. Happy dinging to 85 my friends!

Digital Commission

So, anyone that has been following me on Twitter, or visiting me during my LIVE! Scribbles with Jonathan show has heard be talking about the book I purchased; "The DC Comics guide to Drawing Comics Digitally".

I had the chance to apply this technique with a commission that I recently just finished for a client. I had a blast doing this, but it had its challenges for sure! Some points that I would like to put out there that are fantastic when working digitally are:

1) The ability to adjust the smallest, to the largest details at a whim.
2) Background & perspective work are MUCH more easier. With using paths as the main tool.
3) Working on a computer! This can be a thumbs up, or a thumbs down depending on who you ask.
4) Reference is much easier to use. Open up Google and search for something, drag the image into Photoshop and it's all literally there.
5) LAYERS.

Anyway, here it is. I included right from the concept to the complete image with the logos. Enjoy!
