One week away. The unboxing. #doompatrol #emceeartist
Promotional prints of the Doom Patrol Omnibus arrived. Debuting at Baltimore Comic Con in less than two weeks. Afterwards I’ll have them on my Big Cartel store. #doompatrol #baltimorecomiccon #emceeartist
A few sketches that may eventually be watercolors or just black and whites. I haven’t decided yet. #emceeartist #savagedragon #shadowlass #thunder #wintersoldier
Woke up and drew! Kamandi on some Hero Initiative board. Had to grab some dinner before finishing it off once I got back from therapy. I may add somemore Kirby dots in a bit #thekingsbirthday #emceeartist #kamandi #wakeupanddraw
Heading out to see my therapist. Will finish Kamandi when I get back home. But it’s underway. #wuad #emceeartist #kamandi #wakeupanddraw #kirbybirthday
Definitely going with the no to very little blacks on the mask. Will probably do that to all thr green bits. #process #emceeartist
Some of my designs and approach to a Green Lantern story I’m illustrating. Working out the stashes and hairstyles with some freaky aliens to boot. #emceeartist #greenlantern
Saw some very cool art. This place is huge. The quote on the last photo is priceless. John Singer Sargent exhibition at the Met. Amazing. #emceeartist
I’ve been slowly catching up on my commissions list. Here’s a couple I’ve recently sent off. On the table now is a Rita watercolor, followed by Mass Effect pen and ink and a Liara watercolor. It’s been ages since I have done watercolors so I’m a bit nervous. #emceeartist
Graduation day. My evaluation was a 6 minutes at the fastest pace I could sustain for 6 minutes. This was compared with my first evaluation when I began. I have increased my performance by 67 % from 1200 steps to 2100. And I got a diploma for my experience. #emceeartist
Sent in my foreword for the Doom Patrol Omnibus. It’ll definitely get some red pen action but it was a honor to be asked. Tried not to embarrass you Keith. Still can’t believe they are doing it. #emceeartist #doompatrol
One of the new prints that will be available at Big Lick NOVA in 10 days. While during my brief stint at Marvel I drew half a issue of Punisher. None of my pages featured Castle if they had this is how I would have approached the character. #emceeartist
Insanity play thru. My favorite game on the Cidital. #masseffect #emceeartist
Kicking the Air Dyne’s ass today. 20 minutes not including the 3 minute cool down. #rehab #emceeartist
Did the full Portland Esplanade and added an extra bit of distance to OMSI to see The Dallas from The Hunt for Red October. All told about 3.5+miles. Hadn’t done this walk in years and it felt good. #recovery #emceeartist
Personal best. Shaved off a few more seconds. Each time I try to beat the last. #cardiacrehab #emceeartist
Almost 3 miles today. Walked to the courthouse, then at lunch walk to grab some food almost a half mile there, then back home. It can to 2.85 miles. I gonna be resting on the couch for a bit. #cardiacrehab #emceeartist
Doom Patrol omnibus cover sent in for approval and was given the thumbs up. Now it’s off to the color artist to do there magic. It was so much fun drawing Cliff, Rita and Larry along with the rest our cast of Keith’s and my creations. Can’t wait to see it. #emceeartist #doompatrol
This was not my best cover rough for Doom Patrol Omnibus but it was the simplest of the 5. Doesn’t quite convey what I was wanting to express. It would work for other project. It’s another homage this time to 7 Samurai. #emceeartist #doompatrol
This Doom Patrol Omni cover rough was my second favorite of the five I submitted. It’s another homage. When I was talking with Alex we discussed me drawing as many of the characters that appeared in the run. There were 56 of them including variants like Blackest night DPers #doompatrol #emceeartist
This rough is the second Doom Patrol Omnibus cover sketch I submitted. While I thought it would be funny since the two books have been linked together since they debuted in 1963. I totally understand why it wasn’t chosen. #doompatrol #emceeartist
I submitted a few different ideas for the Doom Patrol Omnibus that has been announced. I’ll post a couple of the ones that weren’t picked. These are my roughs that i submitted. This is a homage to a Giffen legion cover. You are very much missed my friend #doompatrol #emceeartist
Cats out of the bag. I was contacted by Alex shortly before my bypass operation n regards to this project. Im currently working on the cover and should have it wrapped up by next week. It’s great to be drawing these characters again, even for a short time. #emceeartist #doompatrol
Pencils to an older Batgirl story for the Arkham universe. My second Batgirl story, the first was a traditional DCU story in the class look with the red bag. #emceeartist #art #batgirl
More Superboy process pages with the final inked to compare. I always enjoy the actual process of other artist when crafting a page, we all have different methods. This is my preferred method, layouts in sketchbook final art on actual board. #emceeartist #process #art #comicbookart
Process post. My layouts for a Superboy story I did last year. Done on my cintiq using Sketchbook at this stage. I work in layers. I then printed it out on the back, flopped onto my board. I then use my light pad to tighten up and fix issues before I begin the inks. #emceeartist #process #art
Process. Clients ask me to set up there commissions which I affectionately call Matthew Jams. It’s fun to set up the design and see how other artist finish the figure. I hope they use it as a guide but let them do their thing. Im just blocking out the space. #emceeartist #process #matthewjams
Some pencils from Doom Patrol ish 8 and my model sheet for the villain that Keith and I created Botfly. Very Alien inspired. Very tall. One of several characters that we created for our series. I was thinking Black Arachnia from Beast Wars when I was drawing. #emceeartist #doompatrol #art
From Oberon wearing a toupee. Meta movers using Wonder Womans logo upside down. The return of Crazy Jane and my creation Porcelain Doll recruiting AVM-man issue 7 of Doom Patrol had a lot in it. Patch of end circles, since i didn’t draw the final page next issue block #emceeartist #doompatrol #art
The Wayback machine of pencils from Doom Patrol. One of my joys is adding a touch of the artist flavor when doing retrospective artwork in Doom Patrol when doing pastiches. Some Case tribute pages was a big chunk of the issue. #emceeartist #doompatrol #pencils
