  1. Notes: 10 / 5 days ago 

    Earlier today my friend and co-writer Quiz asked for some photoshop lessons, particularly about skintone.  I googled “goth boy” and used the first result to pull a skin palette from, then did a quick demonstration for Quiz over Livestream.  I ended up doing fan art for my own story, and we have a date tomorrow to write the next installment.

    Edit: Oh.  Looks like all the images are broken on the Tumblr where I host the comic.  Welp.  That’s going to need some updating.

    I’m reblogging this for the day crew.

    ==> Finally up for auction!  Click here, and be absolved! <==

    ZERO DAY
    Pen and ink on clayboard
    5 x 7” (10 x 12” framed)

    This listing is for the original pen and ink drawing of MC Frontalot’s ZERO DAY back cover album art, by illustrator EG Gauger

    The piece is drawn and painted by hand on smooth white clayboard with dip pens, brushes, and inkwash.  The final image was recolored digitally before being used on the album art.  This original is presented in a gallery-quality archival mat and frame which will protect against UV damage.

    Our lovable MC Fronts, as a post-apocalyptic mutant of himself, devours the bug-spewing calculator featured on the front cover (the front cover illustration was by Jhonen Vasquez).

    This artwork will ship in protective packaging from the SF Bay Area by USPS Priority Mail, and will include a personalized original sketch from the artist.

    (On a personal note, I would really appreciate you adorable cuddlefish reblogging the LIVING BULLSHIT out of this.  The more publicity this gets, the better the auction is going to go, and I’m really hoping this piece is going to be worth something to the right Frontalot fan.  Thank you for your help and support.)

    Reminder: there are only 4 days left on this auction, and the numbers have been flying.  Get in while you can.

  9. Notes: 1312 / 2 months ago  from neil-gaiman
    neil-gaiman: This was the cover of the first Metal Hurlant I ever saw. I was — what — 14, and on a French Exchange to Paris and this beautiful magazine filled with comics opened my mind to what comics could be, and the art of Jean Giraud, AKA Moebius, made it so powerful and perfect. He drew different stories in different styles, and everything was beautiful. I bought a copy. I could only afford the one copy, but one was enough. I couldn’t actually figure out what the stories were about, but I figured that was because my French wasn’t up to it. I read the magazine over and over and envied the French because they had everything I dreamed of in comics - beautifully drawn, visionary and literate comics, for adults. I just wished my French was better, so I could understand the stories (which I knew would be amazing). I wanted to make comics like that when I grew up. I read them when I was in my 20s, in translation, and discovered that they weren’t actually brilliant stories. More like stream-of-consciousness art meets Ionesco absurdism. Didn’t matter. The damage had long since been done. I met Jean Giraud on a couple of occasions. He was sweet and gentle and really… I don’t know. Spiritual is not a word I use much, mostly because it feels so very misused these days, but I’d go with it for him. We wanted to work together. I wrote the Sandman: Endless Nights story DEATH IN VENICE for him to draw, but his health got bad, so P. Craig Russell drew it. Moebius’s health improved a little, and he asked if I could write him a very short story, perhaps 8 pages, and make them all posters, so I wrote the DESTINY story in Endless Nights for him. His health took a turn for the worse, and Frank Quitely drew it. And both Craig and Frank made magic with their stories, but somewhere inside I was sad, because I’d hoped to work with Moebius. And now I never shall. RIP Jean Giraud, 8 May 1938 -  10 March 2012

    When the sun shone on the suit, the scent of its former life as an ocean sail would fill the hood. The salt and the sand and the tang of metal would still, years later, bring her back to the dunes.

    …and here is the other design chosen by the client, with the changes they asked for.  i got both of these done in two all-day marathons and now my brain is a pile of garbage wegeiwuhgweakhewighewi

    I haven’t been told otherwise, so I think it’s okay to tell you that these are for the CanSec West conference in Vancouver of this year.  These shirts will be sold at the con, and there was some talk of the possibility of me getting a batch of my own to sell, but I’m not sure on that last possibility.  Sounded like it was a “maybe” situation. 

    Not sure what color the shirts will be in the final printing, and there may be a variety.
