It’s Just that You Look So Nice…


I am happy to announce that I will be working with 2 Society Studios to produce a comic book for the Philadelphia morning show Preston & Steve. Brian Coates of 2 Society Studios is doing the penciling and I will be doing the inking.
The image above is a 2-panel selection from the book that shows the pencils in the original glory and the after effects of my inks.
Preston & Steve are Philly’s biggest morning program. You can find them every Monday through Friday from 6 am to 10 am on 93.3 WMMR. Podcasts and other fun downloads are available here: WMMR
If you are over 18 there is even more fun here: Preston & Steve
The comic book, The League of Extraordinarily Stupid Gentlemen (LXSG), features the cast of Preston & Steve and their super-heroic alter egos. There will be plenty of comedy for the average reader and that comedy multiplies if you are familiar with the show.
This will be issue 2 in the LXSG series and it will be released this Spring.
Stay tuned for more info on the comic and check out the links above for more info on Preston & Steve.

Yo JOE!



So, I started reading the cast for the upcoming G.I. Joe live action movie and I got inspired to sketch Snake Eyes. I didn't reference any specific version of him. Just kinda did it out of my head.
I used gray Prisma markers to sketch first. Then went back with darker tones of gray markers. Finally, I used a fine tip pen (0.5 I think) to add in the detail. Recently, I've been going through some of my concept art books (Star Wars I & II mostly) and wanted to try something in that style. Check out Doug Chiang's work... he's awesome.

C'mon. It's Snake Eyes. He's badass!
