What I've Been Up To Lately

 These days, I've been doing a lot of my work digitally.  This is due to the somewhat acquisition of a Surface Pro 3, a tablet computer that features a N-trig digitizer (stylus) that works almost as well as the Wacom Intuos 4 I've used for years.  Being able to draw directly on my screen means I don't need to lug a graphics tablet around, and it means I can do everything from comic rough corrections to coloring where ever I'd like.

At first, I had issues with the side of my hand activating unwanted Photoshop functions, but I made a solution out of a white cotton glove.  I snipped all but the pinkie finger off and it was ready to go.  This cheap solution works fine, but the glove's already getting worn out, and I may end up investing in one of Jetpen's SmudgeGuard gloves soon.

Although I'd like to do fewer conventions this year than last, I do want to introduce some new things to my table, and I thought a few fanart pieces would be a fun way to do it.  The below examples were inked with a fude pen in my sketchbook, but the rest is digital.  My friend, Alex Hoffmann, did the beautiful space backgrounds.

Completed Pieces



There's lots more under the cut!

Mostly Finished (or not intended for space background)

The next few images are a few of my new price signs for my convention tables.
