While at the day job today, a story idea hit me. I had to rush around and make a quick sketch so I could remember the character design. During my lunch I did another quick design sketch for the character.
Anywas, I have a couple quick plot lines to iron out, and I think this will be the next personal project I jump into. I'll keep you all in the loop of course :)
Enjoy the sketch!

24 Hour Comic Book PAGES
Well, it’s been almost a solid month, without posting the pages of my 24 Hour Comic Book Day pages.
Not entirely sure why I’ve waited so long to post these. I think I was waiting to write some elaborate article on the PROS vs CONS of my day, or something along those lines. I will say, this was a totally awesome experience. Something I will most definitely be doing again next year. Not only what I learned about myself, but what I can accomplish under a deadline placed on myself.
Another thing, is that the book was never finished. I made it to page 19, art only. If you watched the previous updates, I mentioned that I came up with the plots fairly quickly. I also had a word document with a rough script as well. Since this was supposed to be done all on the same day, I feel like it would be dishonest to finish the book. This is not to say that I won’t “redo” this script/comic at some time. I think it has some solid potential (for me anyways J )
Finally so you have an idea, the theme of the book was “Out of chaos, comes Order”. The main character finds out that he has the blood of ancient heroes inside of him. A wizard awakens this inside him, and he is able to destroy the oppressors in the world. So, there is some flash backs, showing the heroes of old. Enough lip service, ENJOY!

24 Hour Comic Book Day!
Well here we go! Tomorrow (October 1st, 2011) is the Official 24 Hour Comic Book day challenge!
Click here for the official site!
Quick run down of what the challenge is;
-Create a 24 page comic book in 24 hours. This includes all artwork, all story, everything outside of mass production ha ha.
-No preparation can be done. Save for materials i.e. reference, sharpening pencils etc etc.
So why even do this? Well, the challenge of course! As all artist should know, it's always been about self expression, and knowledge. Always wanting to get better, increase ones skills, and be the best he/she can be. This means endless study, endless work at the grindstone, and endless passion to learn the mighty secrets of "getting better." What ever the heck that means!
Long winded conversation out of the way, I will be continually updating this post while I try and attempt to tackle this challenge. Hope you all enjoy watching this, and wish me success!
