Freelance

Here’s what I’ve been working on in my Weirdlings vacation. A couple of the many such drawings to come on a freelance gig I just got this week…

They’re being used as popup illustrations in a SAT prep program… or something.

Pixel Rotwang

It’s like I’m addicted…

This is Rotwang, the villainous necromancer from the books.

Pixel Sara and Robot

Here’s a Sara Sprite ! I did these recent ones at work in Paint. Bleck! I’ll practice at home on Photoshop and do some animated Sprites for the game. Basic attacks, jumps, runs, etc.

And a robot!

Pixel Phin

Here’s another pixel Phin, I kinda like this one!

Barry

Pixel Zombie

Here’s another pixel practice, a Zombie!

The game I want to make will be very simple, a side scroller shooter zombie hunt with the boss being Rotwang or a vampire. I have NO idea what I’m doing, but it should be fun to figure out.

Pixel Phin and Sara

This is my first shot at Pixel art, as I want to create a video game for my web site, so here are Phin and Sara Pixelized!

Also here’s a pic from Wednesday’s Weirdlings of Allie!

Halloween Present

Happy Halloween!

Here is what I have done of the 24 Hour Comic, Now called “The Radon Farting Bastard Aliens from Hell”…

Cheers

Drawing Fiend!

I have been extremely prolific the pas two days at work. (God I love being able to draw as I work!)
I finished 4 Weirdlings strips and two pages of the now increasingly inaccurately named 24 hour comic.

I have a little time off of Weirdlings ,thanks to the guest artists filling in, after I color these (20 days). I plan to get The TPB # 2 cover done and the 24 hour comic as well. I need to come up with a name for the story so I can quit calling it 24 hr. I am done with 15 pages pencilled , inked and lettered.

That’s all.

Phineus and the Web

I have been working on the websites this weekend, I have the Drunk DUck tailored the way I want it now. I have also created a “Gallery” page with my more “artsy” stuff on it , it’s at http://phinmagic.comicgenesis.com/Sketchbook.htm

Check it out!

Now I can spend the rest of the day cleaning and drawing! Yay!

40K Comic

This is very cool, especially if you really dig Warhammer 40k.
There are a couple comic here to look at. I like the “color by accent” style, it’s very effective!

I’m Internet Famous!

So, I was Googling myself again (I know I’ll go blind!) and I found a number of interesting things…

I am in the top 20 Horror comics (#20) at Buzz Comics
I have fan fiction out there: http://offthtop.home.mchsi.com/Phin.html
and I actually have a BitTorrent for my comics! NEAT!

I think I’ll go and ice my head it’s getting big 😉

24 hour comic Linck Version

Yeah, so I suck. I didn’t get it done . I’m on like , page 13, now. I will finish the story. I do like what I have done, and it’s been fun hand lettering the thing (haven’t done that simce ’99). I’ll post the story when I’ve finished it.

24 hour comic Linck Version

Seeing as I had familial obligations today, I was unable to do the whole 24 hours straight, so I have 12 hours under my belt, now, I’ll attempt to finish tonight with a all-nighter, thus doing one in 24 hours, just in 12 hour incriments.

We’ll see how that goes. I do have 9 1/2 pages pencilled , inked and lettered, so far! I’ll check in later and let you know how I’m doing…

Barry

ART

So mamoulian thinks I’m crazy. Me doing the 24 Hr Comic Challenge this weekend AND still getting the Weirdlings strips done for next week. Maybe I am, but I already have Friday AND Monday’s strips Drawn, I just have to color and letter them.

I have no idea what I am doing my 24 comic about. I’m freaking. I know I shouldn’t but…

I guess we’ll see.

Anyone else? You guys know what you are doing, yet?

Inquiring minds…

Phineus at Drunk Duck

Hello , all.

I have a new website up at Drunk Duck.com, yes the one just bought by Platinum STudios. I got the info from DJ Coffmans site( he won the contest whith Platinum). I figured since they are in the NEw York Times and all, the extra traffic would be swell.

It’s a mirror of what I have going on over at Comicgenesis.com, so nothing different.

Another new site

Yeah, so I signed up for another webcomic site over at Drunk Duck. I got this from DJ Coffman’s site. They were just bought by Platinum, the company DJ just won that contest from.

Neat layout, cool forums and the upload of comics seems easy, I figure I’ll mirror my CG site and get extra exposure.

I have nothing there , yet. Maybe over the weekend.

That is all…

More stuff

I am really excited about the 24 hour comic day. I, however , am not sure how I am going to do it. I have two small children and don’t sleep enough as it is. I do plan on doing some of it at the book store
http://www.517521.com/signup.htm .I’ll probably do alot at home, too. I am toying with the idea of doing a zombie story in crayon! I’m going to practice a little and see how feasable this is.

I think I’ll be doing it on 81/2×11 pages and alot of single pagers, not out of laziness, but because I’ve always wanted to try since that issue of GIJOE when we were kids with Snakeeyes. We’ll see.

Crazy Busy

It was another crazy- busy weekend. I had my cousin’s wedding Sturday after my daughter Emmy’s third birthday on Friday, the whole time trying to see my parents as much as pssible as they are in from Tampa this week for the wedding!

Yikes! I just wanna draw! I’ll try and catch up this week. Next weekend we re-do the kitchen!

Blah!

24 Hour Comic Challenge

Sweet! Prepare! Draw!

That is all….

Stuff

I feel really behind this week. I just finished drawing Fridays Weirdlings. I usually like to have those done by Monday. I am unsure if I’ll get much drawing done this week. My family is coming in from Tampa for a wedding. Yep, I have another one this weekend. I’m just a guest , not in it so it won’t suck up as much time.

I really want to get going on the art for those TPB covers. Grrr.

Busy Weekend

It’s been a very busy weekend. I was best man in my buddy Dave’s wedding, pretty much sucked up my whole weekend. I did get Monday’s Weirdlings strip done, Wed is drawn, I’ll color tomorrow. So much to do, so little time!
