This is page 15. I'm pretty sure Lolli drew it, not sure on the inks, and my colors.

I just saw this at RoadKill Tshirts and cracked up.

Here's the cover for the new book. I'll give more info later, but it will be out around Comic-con.

This is page 12, 15, and 16. It was very nostalgic for me to be able to color an episode with Shang-Chi. Shang-Chi and my fam go WAY back. Plus beating up ninjas is always fun...

This is the cover girl for my next sketchbook. Not quite as...revealing...as I might normally do but of course there is a reason for everything. I'll have the whole cover uploaded soon.

I'm not much of a TV person as far as continuing shows and sitcoms are concerned but one show I don't miss is True Blood. I loves me some True Blood and season 3 starts this weekend. I had to work right off the back this morning so I didn't have much sketch time. I did the pencils this morning and the B&W paint job tonight. Bill is ok but I lost the likeness of Sookie. I tried to fix it in Photoshop and I swear it's worse now.

I saw Christina Aguilera's freaky new video on MTV, and I thought ho boy. Not that she wasn't a lil hoochie on the last album, but I think she's trying to out sleaze Lady Gaga. Christina's proving GaGa's not the only one who'll wear latex and kiss a girl. It's amazing how far we've come. I remember when Madonna did such antics and got boycot everyday. How things change...

Usually I spend 30-60 minutes on my warm ups but I figured since I wasn't too busy I'd spend a little more time on this one. I also wanted to do this so I could paint a not so saturated pic. Pale/muted tones can still give me fits so this was a nice exercise. This is my second "exercise" for the morning, so I don't know if I'm in the mood to work today.

The whole point of this little exercise was after I drew the picture I'd scan it in so I could have a B&W copy of the original art. After I scanned it in I colored the whole thing in Photoshop without even thinking about it. What is my probblem? it's like I can't stop using Photoshop.

This is my friend Lesa.

About a month ago I jointed the ISCA. In the forum they have daily drawing topics and since I TOTALLY didn't feel like working this afternoon I decided to attempt today's which is Suze Orman. I swear I only attempted this because I wanted to draw her pointy teeth. I'm not that happy with it, but it's blogable (my Tom Bancroft word for today).
