Growing The Worlds of the Featured Creature

It's been awhile since I've felt like the Featured Creature images were only sketches.  The drawings and posts have mutated into something much larger than my original thought behind the project.  I feel silly calling them sketches anymore.

The production process for each piece has become quite involved, mirroring much of the process of creating a finished comic book page.  As becoming a comic book creator is one of my personal goals, I suppose unintentionally I've been moving in that direction all along.  So what does all this patter mean for the future of the Featured Creature?

From the Archives: Wounded Heart

Here's a quick sketch from an old sketchbook.  I used Sharpie and a ball point on this one.  I think I was at work when I did it.  If cleaned up and redrawn, I think this would make a decent tattoo design.

Featured Creature: The Wound

I'm not completely back on track yet with the Skin Crawling Comics coloring I've been doing for the Serpentine Cure and everything else that's happened since July first.  Regrettably this means the Featured Creature is still on hold for awhile longer.  However, I didn't want to let August pass without getting at least one creature in the mix.  I apologize for the absence of any creepy fiction to go with this piece.  Maybe something will come out later.  I could certainly see this thing showing up in The Devil's Square.

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.
