Busy Busy Busy

Work has been taking up a lot of my time as of late. My boss promised me that the my hours will return to normal in a week. I will miss all that extra money flowing into my pocket, but the surplus in art time will be welcomed. Here are some of the things I have been working on.


I went back into my pile of Inks and found this picture that i was meaning to color. So, to set the pace on achieving the goal, I laid out a color study. Its pretty basic, but the details in the skull pile should really make it interesting when that point is reached.


Here are the finished inks for Murder Parade. I was thinking of putting some party banners on the upper empty area. Just a thought though. I really want to color this one, so im hoping my boss is right about my work schedule chilling out a little.


I was feeling a little blue this morning so I started sketching a happy picture. The subject is stemming off of the Dragon story started a while back. In this picture, the two main ladies where brought to the tiny dragons "tiny" Capital city deep underground. The city is quite adorable and the market is filled with pie shops and candy stores.

Dan, your inking makes me so happy! You are finding a voice that is distinctly yours, and that is very hard to do these days with people trying so hard to copy other people like Tomer Hanuka and James Jean. Keep at it, I wanna see a comic out of you!!

One thing if you don't mind me saying, I do want to see more variety in your compositions, you have many images of piles of people, I wanna see something CRAZY!!

All i can say is that its a great space filler and in it leads to a congestion that i feel helps out. Looking back i totally get what your saying. Most of my spur of the moment ideas end up that way. Piled. Its a habit that i need to get out of, cut back on, and/or find some alternatives.
