Rosemary’s Restoration, Part 2
The spell has been located, and Rosemary is racing back towards her late teens. Looks like everything is on the right track. Yep.

Remember that time Angela sneezed on her mom and turned her into a baby? Looks like she was able to patch things up just enough to get her verbal again, adorability is proving to be a new hurdle.

Angela returns to her body, leaving Winifred’s with the unwanted effects of her many indulgences. As Winifred attempts to shed the new pounds, Angela is subjected to a different kind of workout.

Angela is unaccustomed to Winifred’s heightened senses, and it starts to make her a tad indulgent. I’m not sure how Angela assumed so much control, but just roll with it (no pun intended).

The teasing continues with more stuff that won’t be happening in Volume 4.

I’m warming for the new mini-story for Volume 4 by drawing things that won’t happen in it.

Some kids left their sidewalk chalk out last night, so Meg and I had some fun. No, we did not draw any wieners.

The primary setting and characters for the new short comic within Underburbs Volume 4! Could this be Angela’s first canonical appearance with pants?

I cut and I pasted the cover to Volume 4: Adventure Capital in real life! This doesn’t affect the printed version one way or the other, but it’ll look cool framed. I’ll invite you over to see it, once I figure out the proper tier pricing. Know Where I Live: $____

Someone left me a very nice comment on DeviantArt, so I did a pencil rendering of her pixel art avatar. Don’t feel bad if I never did the same for you; my sketch funny bone is a very fickle thing. Some days (like today) I don’t think about what I’m going to draw, and things just get into my he...

Posting this just in case you were al wondering how my background saga ended. Like I said, you only really get to see maybe 15% of it in the Volume 4 cover. I'm still going to put it on the inside, especially after discovering that drawing and painting this wasn't the slam dunk I thought it was goin...

I've done it! All the pieces are in place. I'll probably do a bit more tweaking with the colors and contrast, but I'm pretty pleased with it.

I was going to work on the cover, but I forgot to bring my watercolors to work with me. So instead, here’s a quickie of Angela cosplaying as the mysterious plague-masked woman from my 2009 comic, The Widow.

Finally got a background I can live with. I just need to paint a decent sky. Wish me luck, because I’m tired of screwing this thing up!

Pen nibs drag right through it. Watercolor soaks into it too quickly to move it around. I have to redraw this background on good paper. I am bummed.

Background image for the Volume 4 cover. You didn’t think Winifred had some crappy, windowless office, did you? This image will go behind Angela and Winifred on the front cover. I’ll be inserting in Photoshop, but since I frame all my covers, I’ll also be doing some IRL cut & paste work ju...

Finally dove into color on this new cover! The marker phase is over, the next step will be watercolor, the some fun with cutouts! I’m so happy with this so far. I was in the zone today more than I’ve been all year, so I hope that’s a trend that will continue.
2018-04-26 04:05:37 +0000 UTC View PostVolume 4: Adventure Capital is officially underway, but I'm considering doing something a little different with this one. Issues 12-15 of The Underburbs all have the common thread of Winifred making everyone get jobs. However, unlike the four-part arc of Volume 3: Party Mix, these issues co...

Longtime watchers of my DeviantArt page may remember The Widow, featuring a graveyard, a wayward Halloween party-goer, and a mysterious Poe-reciting woman in a plague mask. While cleaning my closet last week, I found some early sketches of it. Enjoy, and try to figure out where the hell I was going ...

Damon, Monika, and Simon get their first cover appearance in Underburbs Vol. 4! Are they being interviewed or waiting for an important meeting? And how much of my colored outlines am I going to redo in black once I start coloring? We shall see, hopefully sooner than later.

I extrapolated on Winifred’s giant shoulder pads from the sketch and decided for this cover to go full 80s office.

Just as I try to hold onto my Rs despite living a stone’s throw from Boston, some of our friends in the South or very “Southern” parts of the Midwest struggle to keep their drawls in check. With varying results.

My day job, Big Picture Framing, is doing a chainwide show displaying many of the artists throughout the company. I have nine of my covers and the playing card design that convention-goers may recognize. These are for sale, and priced in such a way that ensures that I’ll have them forever.

Earlier sketch where Angela is wearing a much different hem. I think she knows she’ll make a better impression on Vincent Pale with a more traditional dress, so I changed it for the final.
