The Perhapanauts pinup

Howdy, y'all! Here's a pin-up I am doing for The Perhapanauts' comic. I just wrapped up pencils of the 2 characters, Choopie, and Big. Todd Dezago had asked me to do one, and with characters as fun as his and Criag Rousseau's, how could I not? Their book is published by Dark Horse Comics. It's a great read, and art is fantastic.

I felt I needed something other than my stiff, 3/4 shot, character designs I've done lately for my Bastion's 7 project. HAHA But hey, ya gotta do what ya gotta do when tyring to imply all the character info to viewers, so for this piece I wanted to cut loose a bit and push the poses and foreshortening.

Choopie and Big wouldn't sit still for the pin-up. Them rascals!







Hope y'all digs!

I'm a big fan of the 'Haps and was psyched to hear you'd be doing a pin-up.

Fantastic pin-up with a very dynamic and exciting pose; I'm sure Todd and Craig will love it.

Loving your work. I check in here to remind to get back to my desk and draw some more. Been following you since your early posts on the drawing board.

michael, thank you for looking out for my work over the past 3-4 years. it's been a delight, and i don't think i would have grown as an artist if it weren't for the internet. i thank the Lord for everything that has been brought my way.

ingrid! so nice to see you here! i wish i could reply on your beautiful works,but i have a hard time reading the propmts. thank you for coming by the blog. it's a delight for sure.

Geneviève! that means a lot to me. i have been really trying to focus on my lines lately to be just as strong from the beginning, so that i don't always have to rely on the colors to pull it through. haha i'd love to color my work with a similar palatte you bring to your beautiful art.

always a pleasure hearing from you all, gang!
