Above is a work in progress that I need to finish for the upcoming Hellboy themed show at Uberbot. Pretty far along into the piece which is good. Because it's due to be shipped out pretty soon. First time shipping original art like this so I went with a wood panel. Kinda wish I could have gone larger. I'm not set up just yet to ship canvases across the country. Original size is roughly 11 x 15. In an oval shape. Her eye's and horns I used a nice copper paint.



Here's how the first batch of tshirts came out. Turned out pretty well. I think I'd mix either a medium warm or cool grey on the shirts next time. Paler on the baby onesie's. I'm also going to play around with bleach. Did some research online. Info's pretty sparse.

Matt really picked a headscratcher this week for Character Wednesday. Supremor. Never heard of him. I tend to zone out when things go alien in Marvel and DClandia. Posing an challenge to make it interesting.

Lots of good stuff came in this week across the map. New Tor, Batman RIP, Cooke's take on Jonah Hex, Tek Janson, and Hellboy.

That's the first time I've been excited about the Mid Ohio Con in quite a while. I got the email about it today. Joe freakin' Kubert. Still busting it out. I could stare at Tor and Sgt. Rock all day. Speaking of which, new Tor tommorow.

Tommorow, pals incogvito and Dara have books out I think. Igor #3 hits the shelves and I think Vito had a piece in Dynamite's Savage Tales. Igor was the most kid friendly thing we had at our booth this weekend.

I've been asked this a few times by different people: Where's Phonzie Davis? He fell off the map with the mini's and zines, it's probably because he's been rockin' it in Hugs & Kisses. I missed them entirely on the lineup. If the sound was half way decent, it sounds like it was a really good set. Costumes and everything. I pulled the above pic off of a comfest thread on donewaiting.

If they play out at somewhere other than the Carabar or Bourbon Street, I'll check them out.
