Early Phin and Sara Sketchbooking

Here are some old sketches from my college sketchbooks for Phin and Sara. This was all prepping for what would eventually be “Dismember Me When You’re Gone”, the official first Phineus comic.

There was a lot of playing with looks and poses. As well as a lot of sloppy texture. It’s a fun look back at where I was way back in 1990-1991.

I have finally finished the lettering on the last 12 pages of Sara: One Shot. I just have the front cover coloring to do , now.

Sara will appear on my sites in August and September, but you can check out a sneak peak here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/phinmagic/sets/72157594168155393/show/
Check it out!

In the past 12 months I have completed 130 comic pages! That’s a new record for me, doing this in my spare time as I work a day job! I want to get more done! Rar!

Have a day!

Stuff

Hello. all I have been working on some art for a lovely couple that is getting married this fall. I’ve done them up as zombies and at a monster reception! How fun!

I have also been working on scanning and lettering the rest of “Sara: One Shot” and drawing “Phineus: Boy Wizard”. Busy , busy , busy.

These will be up on my site(s) later this year. Then onto “Phineus meets Santa”!

Stuff and stuff

I’ve had a busy few days!

The wife and I have been looking at a new house, we’ll see how that goes.
I have drawn a potential cover for Sara: One SHot as well as two more pages, I’ll get them and any other pages I get done up to you guys later this week.

As some of you know, I will NOT be attending the Pittsburgh Comicon this year as it happens the same week as my family vacation to Disney and Tampa (or as my 3 year old Emmy says “Can we go see Mickey?”) I will however be attending, as a guest, the “Steel City Con”( AKA The Pittsburgh Toy Show) http://www.pittsburghtoyshow.com/
So, If you want any books, comic pages or artwork done, come on down and see me!(I’m on the maine page of the website!!)

Okay, I suck , I was supposed to get this up last week, and I didn’t. I guess I’ll blame it on the holidays, even though I’m doing this on New Years eve.

AND… I didn’t get the pages done by today I wanted. Just this one, and a lot on backgrounds drawn. I’ll post them soon so you can pick them out as I post pages.

Happy New Year!

Sara: One Shot

Hey! I got page 11 of Sara done tonight. I’ll scan it and letter it and get it up for you guys on Friday or Saturday. I like it!

Sara: One Shot # 10

Sara-#-10

Hola!

I am about half way through pencilling Sara # 11, lotsa archetecture in this story,lots to draw.
Page # 10 was fun, the more characters to draw over and over , the more challenging. Me and My wife, Chrissie and daughters Maddie and Emmy are in the tour group, the family with the two little girls.

I have to take a few days off Sara to do Weirdlings and another Wrestling Theatre strip, I’ll have the # 11 page next week for you!

I am now 1/4 th the way through thi story! Woo Hoo!
