Page is coming along.
They have really made the design of a page easy on here. I should be getting new graphics up in the next few days and finishing my bio and commission price list. Finished today's Strange Encounter pages except for the word balloons, and will have them posted sometime around lunch time, and starting the coloring of Thursday's pages after that. This week will have three uploads of 3 pages to the webcomic (Tue, Thur, and Sat) as I missed Thursday last week due to personal reasons. Busy, busy, busy.

Some fan art I've done for friends properties
This is Pete Hernandez's character, Company Man. His stories can be found here. http://www.companyman.goofeesnax.com/
This is Danny Kelly's character King Dog.
This is Vince White's character Will Power.
Meet Thomas Gates
Thomas Gates is based on two characters I created when I was in high school named Namorian Gates and Paradox/Grail. I decided to merge them and create a stronger character. He is a sorcerer who is reluctant to use his powers in the modern world. He is joined in his adventures by Raoul his ferret familiar. Designed for a modern Urban Fantasy/Horror setting, I hope to have a short webcomic story for him in the fall.
Meet Surefire
Coming this spring, Surefire is a character I created about 15 years ago when I was at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh studying animation. She was the star of a 1 minute traditional animation intro I drew, though sadly I lost the footage a few years back. You will be seeing more of her in the next few months as I start getting more of her comic done. I'm aiming for a late April to early May launch for her first adventure.
Reworks and updates
Well, I haven't used my blog in about a year and that's getting ready to change. Starting January 1st I will be trying for at least weekly updates on projects I'm working on including sneak peeks at art and my creating process. I will be changing the look of the page in the next few weeks too.
