clobberin' time!


so, after managing to get my last book done on time (sorta) for a pretty tight deadline (hopefully i'll post artwork soon as i get the okay) with a house full of sick folks (luckily, i've been spared from the ick... so far), i took some time to catch up on commissions (like the thing, posted above), packing up stuff to get mailed, new 'haps layouts, cleaning the studio up a bit, and more... (heck, i even read a comic or 2...)

even though my next project is a one shot (due in january), i know if i don't start know, i'll be buried by the holidays ... so it's right back to work on that and the 'haps (seeing the pages for the molly one shot by scott and jason.. and the colored cover for an upcoming issue by jim starlin and terry austin(!) got me itching to get moving full steam)... right after i finish this very long in the queue, movie poster style 'haps pin-up sitting on my drawing board...

(so, mad men ended in fine fashion - january jones on snl this week, not so much... yikes. - sons of anarchy has become a favorite these days... and glad to have fringe back... and i've been enjoying all 4 sitcoms on thursdays on nbc this season after warming up to community and parks and recreation )

That Thing looks great, Craig! I really like the way you draw his legs and feet, really gives some weight to him.

Yes, Craig, your Ben Grimm is outstanding. I think this one, your Tigra head shot and that Aquaman you did back when you first started working on the canson paper are the ones where the paper added a vibrancy to the piece that I do not think could have been achieved through any other medium.

Fringe has been really good this year.

Wow! Awesome color choices as usual.

I had about thirteen jokes at the ready about "your Thing" but I think maybe not. :)

Brian said...

Me too, Matt, but I chose the high road and went with Ben Grimm instead. ;-)

Craig, the anticipation is killing me! I was the one who commissioned the movie poster style 'haps pin-up all those many moons ago, Can't wait to see the final result. Please, post a glimpse on your blog when it's finished.
All the best,
Erik

This Thing has a great Art Adams feel to it! Which makes me think that I'd love to see a Craig Rousseau 'New' Fantastic Four (Grey Hulk, Wolverine, Ghost Rider & Spiderman.
