As if the activity book assignment I have isn’t enough to keep me busy, I’m moving into another apartment right now. Might be off the internet for while depending on how things go. I’ll be back A.S.A.P.!
I’ve started working on that activity book commission I was talking about before, and the time I need to devote to it means there won’t be much newness for a while, though there are still things I need to add to the galleries here.
Another reminder: the All-AmeriCon 2013 convention happens this upcoming Sunday! I’ll have a table there with prints, free flyers, and previews of things that aren’t finished or on the site yet. Stop by, even if you don’t want to buy anything from the table!
I’ve just started another activity book assignment, so the current Beans vs. Cornbread comic will be on slow-motion mode for a bit. I said slo-mo instead of pause I’ve started on page four. It might take a while, but that story will pick back up again. I also had to get at least one more color pic (points to John) done for the All-Americon convention on July 7th. I’ll be in Artist’s Alley, so stop by my table even if you don’t plan to buy anything from me. Yes, I’m just that desperate for attention.
I think we’ve all had enough of this teaser crap. Let’s go.
The War Begins Again in this link.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa, waitaminute, what about the other place?”
Don’t worry, Story Mode will eventually get to that.
I still have ton of ScrollBoss pixel art that needs to be added here, but a huge chunk of it just landed. Sprites of Bizarro, Braniac, Zod, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn are on the new DC villains gallery page with work progress gifs of Bizarro, Harley, and Ivy. The Marvel villain page has been updated with the Super-Skrull sprite, his work progress sprite and a few alternate power sets that haven’t hit ScrollBoss just yet.
Meanwhile, have some previews from a project people probably think I forgot about. One of these has been visible on the early version of the site, but only if you know where and when to look.

It’s the 75th Anniversary of Superman’s creation by Joe Shuster and Jerry Seigel, so I took another shot at this pose I’d tried to draw before. It’s mostly based on a Christopher Reeve (R.I.P) pose from the first movie. All of the earlier attempts looked like crap, but this looks less crappy.
I may as well ink it while I’m at it:
“Wait, the penciled version doesn’t have a cape in the back?â€
Because I needed a version with no cape so I can ani – – wait, you aren’t supposed to know about that yet Hey, pretend I didn’t say that last part. Go back to playing Injustice or whatever.
(edit: 2:08 AM)
Hey, it’s Lois Lane’s 75th anniversary of existence, too!
Because, honestly, the biggest April Fool’s prank I could pull would be to have a real update. Playing catch-up from February, Edgar, from Sega’s game Quartet, is finally added to the galleries here. The line art is of Guffaw, a villain from, well, that project I keep annoying you about. There’s a horror-based corner to the world this project takes place in and he’s just one of the many monsters and sick freaks you’ll find there.
ScrollBoss has been much more busy lately and I’ll be setting up gallery pages for those sprites, mainly the G.I.JOE and Cobra sprites, very soon. I just had to bulk the GFX Generators a bit because I have to get back to work on both the new site and getting this one active again.
Tabletop gaming and RPG fans in Ohio and Pennsylvania should consider checking out the NCG Penn-Ohio Spring Fling Game Expo on Saturday, April 13th. You’ll also find a lot of great artists there setting up tables, so go if you want to get some excellent art prints. As a side note, I’ll be there, peddling my low-rent scribbles for Lego and Peanut Butter M&M money, but don’t let that stop you from being there!
Those coloring & activity books I drew art for last year are finally in stores! My artwork isn’t on the cover…
… but it’s on the inside…
From what I’ve been told, the books are in Dollar Tree and Five Below stores now, so be sure to pick those up for yourself or loved ones along with the other Landoll coloring books, including a really cool Robots-themed book.
Work continues on the new site. I posted previews on Tumblr that you can find here and here. A few more people know about the site and seem to like the early version of a new site feature that will debut there first. Don’t worry, these teasers will be over with soon (finally).
I’ve mostly been working on that new site again and you’ll finally see it up and running soon. Those of you who have the 2012 Illmosis flyer already have the URL where that site can be found. If you type it in now, you can see a new preview of the site that I uploaded a few days ago. None of the comics are up yet, but you can see a site feature preview in the sidemenu. That weird new thing will be a bit boring if you look at it in the afternoon, but you might see something a bit more interesting at around 11 PM EST until 1 AM EST. More will be continually added until the site officially debuts early this year. Site updates here will be kinda small for a while. I’ll be showing previews on the Illmosis Tumblr and the early birds to the site will be able to see the full, early version of this graphic. This site will still be updated, mostly with sprite additions from those earlier ScrollBoss updates, but there’ll be other things, too. I’ll also get that “I’m selling prints” thing started up soon, too and anyone who buys prints will get that 2012 flyer with the “secret” URL.
