Getting ready for Comic Con
I mentioned on Monday that I am getting ready for the San Diego Comic Con, which will be upon us in just a couple of weeks. One of the things that I have been working on is a new business card and postcard leave behind. There is a secret item I am working on that I will share with you when it is all finished.
Now that I have committed to these I think back to the last business card and leave behind I carried around at Comic Con and a little piece inside me dies. Live and learn, right? There is much more recent work I wanted to use for these, but alas I can't due to NDAs. The good news is that many of my recent clients are allowing me to use unreleased work in my hard copy portfolio for self promotion at the Con, so I can't really complain.
New and improved double sided business card with Info-tastic-mega-overload power!
Postcard leave behind. I will of course realize all the things I should have done once I am talking to an art director at the con.
I will keep you posted as the other items progress. I hope they will turn out super neat.
For those of you not following me on Twitter or Facebook you may not have heard my update yesterday about the ceiling tile I painted for Tijuana Flats. I have been told it took second place in a popular vote... which I was never told would be a popular vote and thus did not allow me to vote for my own tile or get anyone else I know to vote for said tile. Oh well, I still won some free burritos and the tile is very well placed in the restaurant with my web address clearly visible.
Second place! (...is the first loser) ;)

Ankheg Wallpaper
You might remember me constantly asking for you to vote for Ankheg. If you don't then you obviously don't follow this blog, or my Twitter account, or me on Facebook, because for a while there I would not shut up about... VOTE FOR ANKHEG!!!! ... Anyway, you all listened, voted, and Ankheg made it to the semi-finals for the Dungeons and Dragons Creature Competition! That makes your friend and mine the winner of being immortalized on a series of desktop wallpapers!
Head over to the Wizards of the Coast website and download your very own Ankheg wallpaper today! ...oh yeah, there are three other monster wallpapers too, but they are not Ankheg.
I'm a monster at 800 x 600, 1024 x 768 or 1280 x 960, RAWR!
In all seriousness, thanks to everyone that voted for my monster. I am fairly sure you all swung the voting at least once or twice, and no election is worth a grain of salt if it can't be manipulated to produce the results you want!
You guys rock! Thanks for the votes!

ArtOrder - Biker Gang
If you missed it, last weeks concepts are up at Artorder as well as the next two assignments. Here is my concept for this week...
The assignment for this week was to take one of the featured Dungeons and Dragon races and deck them out in full biker gear and give them something to ride. I think it speaks for itself. Only thing I will add is that for some reason I really needed to put a cowboy hat on a Dragonborn... not sure what that says about me. (?)
Don't forget to visit ArtOrder every Tuesday to vote for your favorite artist by leaving their name in the comment field of the Concept Tuesday post! A vote for me is a vote for the future!

Boneclaw Impaler
I have always liked the look and feel of the undead Boneclaw, so it was a real treat to receive the assignment to design a new Boneclaw for the Against the Giants expansion for Dungeons and Dragons miniatures. I did several early sketches that helped me get my head around the creature that I sent to the Art Director to get feed back as I narrowed in on a final creation.
First pass, just feeling out the creature, it currently has a very stiff pose.
Second pass, better, still stiff... but I feel I understand the monster now and can move forward with the supplied feedback and create the final. As a side note, my Art Director on this, Stacy Longstreet, in joking commented it felt like it was greeting people at Walmart. So....
...I took a couple of minutes and whipped this up and sent it back to her.
Third pass, much better and almost there, one final minor edit to the wrappings hanging off the left arm and I will have an approved design.
That's all for today, not sure what I will have for Friday... my schedule is rather a little full and I might have to skip my posting. Hopefully not.
If you already haven't, make sure you head over to ArtOrder and cast a vote for my Concept Tuesday submission by leaving my name in a comment at the bottom of the page!

Artorder Sketch - Exchange
If you missed it, last weeks concepts are up over at Artorder as well as this weeks assignment. Here is my concept for this week...
The assignment for this week was to take one of the silhouettes from the Usual Suspects assignment and expand it into a finished design. The twist is that everyone had to take another artist's silhouette! For this assignment I selected Ruth Kim's Defender. I found it the most appealing because while it contained a lot on information in it's shape it still left a lot to the imagination. I really enjoyed this assignment and hope that there will be more collaborative projects in store for ArtOrder.
