Skin Crawling Comics Countdown: 081213 32 days

Here is some delicious preview art from Edmund Dansart.  Enjoy!

Also - Rachel has asked that we remind everyone that the Indiegogo is a FIXED funding crowd sourcing, much like Kickstarter.  This means that we only get funded if we make our funding goal.  Otherwise we have to try again.

Psyche Delectus: Comes The Yaga

Through fog and mist,
cross the plains of knowing,
in twilight moments,
comes the Yaga.

Skin Crawling Comics Today: 080913

Until the Indiegogo fundraising deadline I'm going to focus the majority of my posts on Skin Crawling Comics promotion.  I know its a little "one note" but there's an army of creators in this project and I'm happily involved so I REALLY want it to succeed!  I'll be posting about Skin Crawling as often as possible between now and September 13th with links and news to let you know more about the project.

Here's a more recent sketch, but this one has a digital twist.  I developed this image while playing in Photoshop and exploring paintbrush options.  I was very pleased with the painterly style that emerged.  There will be more of this style coming and with greater color exploration.

Psyche Delectus: Child of Darkness

Born of darkness,
grown in the deeper shadow,
his eyes were always clear in the glint of twilight.
The light, when it came, was not relief,
but only greater pain
on flesh too frail to bear the illumination.
Hailed as thin skinned,
he retreated to the only safety he'd known.

Skin Crawling Comics Update: 080113

Everything this week has been abruptly put on hold.

The heavy continuous rains of the past few weeks have driven local yellowjackets, who nest generally in the ground, into the wall outside my studio.   From there, the pesky critters found their way into my studio through the molding.  I've been moving furniture all week to try and find their entry point while simultaneously avoiding getting stung.  A challenging week to say the least.  Hopefully, before this time next week I'll be back on track and yellowjacket free.

Skin Crawling Comics Update: 072513

In her recent post, Crossing the Line, Skin Crawling Comics' Editor-in-chief, Rachel Pandich, talked more on the Hoinsky Book controversy at Kickstarter and the direction of  SCC fundraising.  That leads me to this weeks big news: the fundraising issue has been resolved and Indiegogo is now the host for fundraising for the Skin Crawling Comics Anthology!  WAHOO!  Just click here or the Indiegogo logo below to check out the fundraising page. The Indiegogo will run until September 13th, 2013.

Sketches of a panel sequence from my notebook inspired by a young man I met at the time.  His immense feelings preceded him.  This was to become a layout like some of my other sequential poetry work.

Featured Creature Update: Delays

Sorry to be the bearer of delaying news, but any new Featured Creature posts are on hold until I can finish my coloring work on The Serpentine Cure for Skin Crawling Comics.  The coloring process is pretty much full time and I have to give that precedence for the time being.  As soon as that is finished, though, I have several creatures waiting in the wings to creep forward.

On a happy note, comic book coloring is the kind of work that I've been working towards and it may become financially viable for me. It would be a dream come true.  Sorry again for the delay, but hopefully this will allow me to get a bit ahead when the Featured Creatures do return.  :-)  See you soon.
