One More...

I should probably stop posting these Elephantmen pages before I start with the "spoilers!"

Anyway, Here's one more...



This is a fun scene. In case you're wondering about the location, it is Piazza San Marco in Venice. "Venice, Italy," you ask??? Nope; Venice, California! In the future world of Elephantmen, the great Italian city has fallen into the sea! Thankfully, the historic monuments were moved to Southern California to preserve them for posterty.

I love that idea!

BTW, if you haven't seen the other pages that I've posted, you they are up in my "Sequential Art" Portfolio. Links are on the right side of this blog.

Elephantmen!

Pretty tired right now for some reason, but I wanted to post a sneak-peek at my latest project before I collapse in an unconscious heap.

Today I finished drawing an 8-page back-up story for Elephantmen, that will be published by Image Comics and Active Images around the end of the year. I am extremely pleased with how it's turning out. I just finished the inks, and now I can start coloring the hell out of it. I think that the past year of intense drawing has paid off. This story is going to be a great showcase for my work.

Anyway, here's a page of inks:



I think it's pretty cool right now, but it's gonna be great in color, IMHO.

In case you're wondering what you're looking at, it's Hip Flask's sidekick, Vanity Case rushing through Piazza San Marco for a cup o' joe. See, in the dark & gritty world of Elephantmen, the Italian city has finally fallen into the sea. Thankfully, these spectacular monuments were saved--and transported to Venice, California! Personally, I love that idea. I hope it happens for real. You know...unless they can safely keep it where it is now, of course!
