There is still much I can't show you, but I still have a bit I can. The whole "Big" project is confidentiality agreed so no talky for me. But my personal projects are open game..... Well, some of it! I started thinking about showing the layouts for pages 6-19 then I thought "If I show you that will you still be interested in the finished book?"...... Sure you will!!!!

So here's a sneakie peek of pages 6-19 and a peek of my excitement which is how great the con prints are coming together. This is the Kaye K. poster "Hair" version B. with background to boot!!!!!  

Kaye K. V.2

Pages 6-17....

Pages 18 and 19...

Well that's all I have for this now 1 April Twenty13!

I hope you enjoy this post!

UNTIL NEXT TIME!!!

Twenty13

Hello followers!
     I wanted to start twenty13 of by saying, "HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!" and I hope it as great for you as it's going to be for me and NF8th Studio. I don't have a lot to post right now. I will say that officially at the end of today anybody I have extended an invitation to join our ranks, the offer will be extinguished. I you have the desire to join you have up until 02 Jan 13 at 12:01 eastern to respond and say you want "to get in on the ground level of the studio" or something to that effect. Just a "Yes I would like to join." is sufficient as well.

     Sadly it seems we are to fresh and unknown right now, but that will change. I do want to thank you for hanging around to see what's going on in NF8th Studio and I will say you are in for a ride this year.

    As always we are open for commissions. So feel free to contact us to do some work for you. We have pretty reasonable rates.

That's all I really wanted to say. Look for another update closer to the end of the month.

Oh and I've joined a tumblr blog Called 1 Panel A Day and you get a chance to see me create one panel of a comic book a day(you'll also see the creator of the blog as well), but I think it'll be a fun endeavor and a huge undertaking. Feel free to head over there as well(especially you followers who are sequential artists, we'd love to have you)

Alright!

UNTIL NEXT TIME!!!!

A random Wednesday 17 Oct 12

Hi, followers and readers! I'm back with a couple of new art some news and nothing, lol. Isn't that enough?

Anywho. The Urban30 project is still going on... Just without me. I was dropped from the project. 

The lesson for today kids is deadlines... It good to have them and great to meet them. Try your best to get the deadlines as early as possible. Because, as much as you want to do it, you can not fulfill a deadline

when you already have a plate full... The other lesson for today is moderation! 

I know you want to do every project that falls in your lap, but you have to have respect for your on-going

projects and clients, yourself and on-going deadlines, and the new client and new deadlines.

Kk, with that said lets get to some art!!!

This is Drifter for U30. I call this the short hard look collar.

This is Drifter with the tall hard look collar.

This is Heatstroke, a villain from the U30 universe.

I was really diggin' the updated look I gave her. She's pretty cool..

Pun intended.

This little lady has no name but it part of a project I'm working on 

for a book that's going to be published.

This is the colors for the same lady.... She's got the whole world 

in her hands................

......Sorry about that. ^___^

You should be pretty familiar with fella. 

It's Tango again. This time he's looking at something

with interest. Wonder what that could be?

That's all folks. Well at least for this update.

I'll see you next time.... And.....

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY

I may switch to Saturday updates... Or just make it random just update weekly

So quite frankly having issues keeping this thing updated every week on Tuesday. So how about I just guarantee I update weekly. So my work week starts on Friday so it'll be Friday-Thursday.... Well here's today's upload.

Mr. Difter, we've seen quite a lot of you lately!!! 

Still solidifying the design of Drifters suit for my run on 

Urban30's character.

Tons of sketch work. Having issues with my graphic pad

but I want to keep progression going on this project.

More sketch work...

Even more sketch work...

And the final piece of sketch work this session.

Also solidifying the design for Manga Tango for the up and coming 

Manga Graphic Novel titled "Twilighted"

Written by noted creator and artist Germaine Webb.

That's it for this upload. See you next time and...

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!!!

Happy 4th!!!

So! I don't have a ton to show today, but I will show what I've been working on.

This is something I smuggled out of the Department of Homeland Security........

I kid, I kid! This is a super secret project I'm penning and designing.

It's going to be great. The few people I have let see the project really like it.

So I'm sure you will too.

This is a file labeled "Tangomanga" for a Forgotten Guardians project.

It will be penned by the one and only Germainiac Germaine Webb of Twilight: The Battle of Spiritual Warfare. 

But of course I couldn't do anything without designing the new look, 

a younger more vibrant version.

I'm thinking this series will be called, "Twilighted"

See what I did there?... Huh?... Ah what do you know about comedy!

Anywho, you'll see me redesigning the cast and crew of Forgotten.

This is the rework from the project in last page's highlights. 

Had to make a uniform change.

On this one and a character change on another. 

But I'm still in negotiations with

the client about the character change.

Well that's all I got this round. Promise to have more next time!!!

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!!! 

This page is very Urban

Today I'm uploading my sample work for Elemental, a character from Urban 30... I've mentioned it previously on other pages. Here is the website for Urban30. So let's get started shall we.

This one isn't much, because I was drawing all of these on a moving 

MARTA bus. 

And take it from me. It takes some getting use to.

Here's the second one and I believe I'm getting use to it.

"Tentacles away" 

Showing Elemental in offensive stance. 

Causing the tentacles to combine and attack. 

I think I did a good job at showing that. 

What do you think?

I wanted a more sensual sweep of the tentacle.... Eh. I'm still working on that. 

This is actually the word bubble set for the comic. It will be vectored out and cool.

Trust me, I can slang it when it comes to original word bubbles.

That's all I have for today. I'll bring you more next time.

THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY!!!

June 18 Posts ABOARD!!!

 So another week has passed and I've spent some of it as in a couple of days with back to back 9-5 and design.... Can you say endless nights. The whole latenight staff at Steak and Shake Roswell know who I am now. Not surprisingly they now welcome me with open arms or rather open tables.

This is that project that's been costing me loss of sleep for days!!

This is Horace the horned viper...

Sting the scorpion...

Lee the lion....

Falon the hawk...

Sandie the sand cat... 

And the group pic!!!

This is my version of the "Cursed" part of another projects I'm attached to...

Head shot of the Cursed...

 And a little Drifter work. I think me and Mr. Drifter are getting along nicely.

What do you think?

Well that's it for this upload.!!

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!!!
