Gumshoes 4 Hire SDCC banners W.I.P.

Here's W.I.P #2

  

Here's W.I.P. # 1 for a potential 2nd banner for San Diego Comic Con.

Keeping with the Gumshoes 4 Hire theme.

Chop-Shop Bag

Howdy, gang!  Hope your weekend went well.

Soooo... what's new witcha?  Hmmmm how about for starters a peek into a new bag that I'll releasing this year, hopefully in time to have alongside my 2011 art book Cheeks:Still Together, at San Diego Comic Con. I kept the template on the image so you'll have an idea of the dimensions of the bag.

3 reasons for the for the bag is:

1) free with purchase to the first 200 pre-orders of my new 2011 art book  Cheeks:Still Together. What's the 411 on the book ya ask?  Those details can be read here at the following http://cheeks-74.deviantart.com/journal/

2) also available for purchase at San Diego Comic Con for a very affordable price.  Price TBD, but I'll keep you posted.

3) and also to be available for online purchase.  Price TBD, but I'll keep you posted.


Pre-orders are not available yet because I have to find out what the shipping rate for the new books will be due to it being 40 pages more than my 2010 art book, Cheeks:UNCLENCHED (100 pages).  I'll give ya the scoop once I get my comp copies in, so I can get different shipping rates for you all squared away.

Below is a revised image I sent in for the bag illo. :)

And yet another revised layout.  HAHA  I am learning from all this, I promise!

I feel this is the final layout and placed properly this time. :)

Almost had an early night last night.  HAHA  Good thing I checked my email before turning in.  An early turn in for the ZZZZ's at 11-ish to the PM ended up me crawling to bed nearly 4 in the AM.

Sorry, Ichiban!

Anyhow, I was sooooooo sure that the last few versions of the art I turned in was good to go to sign off on, but I was asked to give more bleed area, so I took advantage and swapped some things around.  Fingers crossed that this is gonna be the one to get through!  HAHA  :)

I gotta say though, it's nice to teach an old dog like me new tricks.  This will be the final look of the bag design.  Great correspondence with the company and very professional.  I hope this is something I can have new come out each quarter.

Hope y'all digs!

Unko Time!

 hehe

Still going down the list of fan art that I've been wanting to get to lately.  Old school anime seems to be getting my digi pen's attention and caress.  Here we have Mazinger getting squatted on by Kabuto Kouji.... Dang hitchhiker... thar be a law for knucklehead moves donchaknow?!

W.I.P. #2

Now that I fooled ya with the previous pose, here's what's really the real pose for Kabuto. Dangit it, son! Do yo' dirty bidness elsewhere!

Here's a commission I did over the weekend at Heroes Con.  I'm not sure if I'll go back to this and clean it up, but what I do know is that I'll do more of the crew!

Thank you, everyone for stopping by the table and attending our panels at Heroes Con!  It was great to see you all!

Hope y'all digs!
