Scared Pilot Color

Here is the color version of the last posts’ sketch.

Guns, Germs, and Steel

Taking part in Reddit.com’s attempt to break the world record for the largest Secret Santa gift exchange, I received this cool tome last night as my gift. My gift went out last week and as I haven’t seen confirmation of it’s receipt, I’ll keep that a secret, just in case.

Stall

This is an inked version of a cartoon for a flying themed website. The pilot is about to stall the plane unwittingly.

Treasure

This past weekend, the wife and I found ourselves in Ellijay for the weekend. As we wandered around, we stopped in an antique shop, figuring to find something that might go in a room we plan to spruce up after the kids and grandkids get moved out in a couple of months. We didn’t find anything for the room, but I ran across this, buried in a corner:

…an intact 28 volume set of Time Life books on the Civil War in excellent condition. Originally sold back in the 80′s for a pretty penny, I was able to snag them for $100. I’ve been on a Civil War reading binge for a while now, and there are a number of illustrations and pictures contained in these volumes I haven’t seen. Youtube even has a commercial about the set from 1991.

Pickpocket

This is a sketch for a bank ad, believe it or not. The bank that commissioned the cartoon wanted to tout their own lack of ATM and checking fees, while highlighting the the recent changes of their competitors.

Goodbye Steve

Playing With Clay

I just became aware of an awesome (and free!) 3D program called Sculptris. It’s seems to be pretty powerful, considering the price you pay. And with just a few hours of fiddling with it, starting with the default ball of clay, this is what I was able to create. Loads of fun.

Fish Sketch Reject

This is a sketch I did for the recent Flirty Fish design, but rejected on my own as too static for the purpose. I thought I might put it in the background with a few others, but changed my mind as that probably would have been too busy. Still, I kept it and will probably finish it later to put on my site. I just realized that I seem to have a lot of fish cartoons for some reason.

Sea Turtle

Finally found a little time to finish this. It looks like it might be going into an iPad app that Asgard Studios and I have begun work on.
