My semi annual post stating I would like to work on GI Joes. They are the reason I thought it was a good idea to jump out of airplanes for a living and carry around a giant radio in my rucksack
Oh and I like Bea Wolf, so I hope you get a chance to read it off Hoopla or something
Ciro and I have our Hurt Me Plenty ashcan finished. Swinging for the fence, anyone recommend editors to pitch to? Conan meets Courage the Cowardly Dog. A fainting goat unwillingly adventures with his talking shield (who likes getting hit a little too much)
I randomly had an idea for a logo to new comic story I wish I could make. I tested it out and I thought it looked neat. Realized it would be unwieldy. Tried to iterate with advice from @mikemorrocco.bsky.social Lastly threw a random pinup to see if it would work. Pretty cool for having no skills
Hi #portfolioday! I’m a disabled comic creator. My Webtoons color gig keeps me busy, but I would love to find writing work too. Here’s my portfolio: www.jumpstartcomic.com Additionally, I have so many pitches ready to go. Please feel free to reach out to see more! Art creds in alt
I have all these crime short stories laying around. I really should make a few more and create an anthology or something… Pencils by NerdiGrey + rest by me Art by Lane Lloyd Dotta7 Dan Finley
I saw Liefeld is looking for writers for Youngblood. Made me remember when the rights holder offered to be my agent. I trolled him on a phone call and was offered to write the book. Lol Mr. Liefeld if you are still looking for an established writer, let’s chat. Its my destiny!
I have gotten out of the house an driven out to another artist night up in the city. I think I am dead tired from deadlines. Hope I am sociable
Took a break to visit the KC World Cup Fanfest. My family are wearing Ecuador shirts and due to this my wife is on her third interview HAHAHA
Wanted to post proof of comics life. My Webtoons job keeps me incredibly busy and I am under contract to not show it. But Inheritance is progressing nicely! We are at the early coloring stages
The final page of art is complete on Hurt Me Plenty! Artist Ciro Scala has produced some amazing action. We have a logo now too!!! While we wait on a cover, we’d love to talk to editors about finding this series about a lil cowardly fainting goat a home!
Hi! I am busy working as an art assistant for a Webtoons original. I’d still have time to get some writing work! I am available, work fast and cheap. Love to talk pitches. I have tons of ideas! Portfolio: www.jumpstartcomic.com
Proof I am out of the house and hanging out with artists. I can’t show what I am working on
Received the penultimate page of Hit Me Plenty. After 2 years we are nearly done with this comic. I am so excited!!!
Made it to Free Comic Day! Last of my first print run on stuff. Trying to also work on some color assistant work at the same time. How do artists doing commissions do this? Haha
Headed to Free Comic Book Day…right after I coach my kid’s football game. If you are in the area, come join me and Courage in the middle of nowhere (not far from Kansas). I can’t promise eerie stuff will happen but you can buy comics! Just ignore that the nearest town is called Peculiar…
Trying to decide if he brings over a pair of henchmen or he meets some fanboys and convinces them to be henchmen These guys can be washing dishes or delivering arrangements for maximum bumbling efforts
I am a disabled comic creator and available for Disability Pride Month comics… I can do disability stories and superheroes/villains real well Art by @viniciuscarreiro.bsky.social & @ferranteartes.bsky.social
Doing a reread of Spawn lately. Getting close to the 200’s and wow Whilce Portacio’s art with Jin Han coloring is such an amazing pairing. Idk how other fans rate but it’s in my favorite runs of the series.
Hey, I am open to collab. If you have a short comic I’d love to join the team. I want to grow as a creator. I can work as a letterer, an inker, a colorist or all three Colors on Tango’s art Lettering on Steve Bristow’s art Inks, colors and letter’s on NerdiGrey’s pencils
New coloring practice WIP. Art by @ikadraws.bsky.social. I have the flats done but I am not sure I am happy with the background colors. Might play around with it as I work on adding shadows.
Another attempt with a smoother transition. Big thanks to Jack Foster and Mike Morrocco for the help. Art by @tiredsai.bsky.social. Sorry again Tango.
Ok, I am done with this coloring practice. Need to work more with the airbrush and next time make sure I mask the character as I use it. I doubled the shadow and light layers and added contrasting colors to them. Art by @tiredsai.bsky.social. Forgive me Tango
I like to reuse characters in my comics scripts to cut down on artists needing to do tons of new concept art. But Bug-Eye gets used the most and each artist has wanted to do their own spin. Art by Brendan Albetski Bruno Ferrante Michael Pickard Tyler Boss (I think? It was ‘11?)
Hello comic peeps! I am looking for new work or opportunities to make comics. I recently reworked my online portfolio. Take a look consider hiring me or allowing me opportunities to pitch. I have several of professional quality ready to go!!! www.jumpstartcomic.com Art credits in alt text
