Got To Get Up To Get Down!

A quickie that I whipped out tonight. She's getting excited for action! and mystery! OOOoooOOOooo...

Go Go Amigonauts!

My good buddy and old college room mate, Kyle Marshall is doing it like no other with his new film The 3 Amigonauts. And here is the proof:

Go tell him you love him, you know you want to.

Apri-teasy!

Yeesh, it's been a month already...yikes. Well I am still trucking along with the comic, I had a bit of down time due to a 2 week crunch at work that wore me out but things are back on track! I really want to show more, but I promised myself I'd save it all for the launch of the actual site, so the best I can do is provide some inked up teasers. Got to pick stuff that doesn't give anything away but is still interesting.

I'm still having hella trouble with Wordpress, now I can't even log into the dashboard since I upgraded to 2.7. I tell ya, I might be better off just creating something from scratch using good old reliable, Blogger. Hopefully I'll have it all figured out soon, believe me, I want to launch this bad boy so don't give up on me yet, I keep churning out pages so at least I'll have a nice backlog when the site is finally up.

Until then, enjoy!

A taste of Apricot, a taste of morning breath.

Hey dudes, just a little taster of my comic that I'm working on. Yes, it's still coming, I have been working very hard on it. I was finding it hard to settle on on inking style, or rather to ink or not have lines and everything in between but I finally settled on the "looks good but takes hella long" approach. Good thing I have a cintiq at work or else I'd probably go insane but inking half at work, mostly during my lunch and breaks and the rest at home is not as bad as I thought it would be, but I really need a cintiq for home, now more than ever.

In the end tho my decision is to have a dope looking comic with a kick ass story rather than worry about pumping out something every week that I'm not completely happy with, so bear with me as this may take a bit, but I will post pages as soon as I finish them. You can also check out the comics home base at Apricot7.com. Right now it's just the basic template you get with Wordpress/Comicpress and I can't figure out how to not make it stretch my damn images all to hell but expect it too look sweet soon, that is as soon as someone with Wordpress knowledge comes to my rescue...haha...jokes, but seriously I think I need a hand, it's definitely not blogger.

Also thanks to my pal Dave for the link-a-roo!

Enjoy.

Street Fighter Art Trade

Me and my good buddy, J-Mac recently had ourselves a little trading of art, or an art trade for all the idiots out there. We agreed on a topic, in this case Street Fighter and cranked out the jams. Here is what I did for him, it was hard to track Sakura down, but I eventually found her deep in the forests of Japan, training very hard for her next match. She normally does not give autographs, especially while in such heavy training but my good looks and impeccable charm warmed her over enough to grant me such an honor. She also taught me to hadouken, so yeah...watch yer fekkin' backs!

Apricot 7 Cast

Well I thought I would introduce the official lineup from my soon to be launched web comic, Apricot 7! This the main cast of characters, whom we'll see on a regular basis and whose lives the comic will revolve around. Feel free to offer up any crits or comments as I'd love to hear them.

Hey dudes! Thanks for all the kind words on the last post, I definitely appreciate it.

I was recently invited (and by invited I mean begged...and wept) to start posting on a fucking fantastic blog set up by the equally fantastic, Ramon K. Perez. She's My Kind Of Girl is apparently the place to be if you need a little bit of sexy girl in your pathetic lives...well, not your pathetic lives, i mean those other guys pathetic lives. I'm insane-o pumped to be part of something so cool with an amazing pool of all Canadian talent! The likes of J.Bone, Cam Stewart, Michael Cho and of course, Ramon, so check it outs and check back at least once a week as girls are posted every Friday and sometimes even sooner.

Oh yeah, site is NSFW. Oh wait, so is this post...BEWARE! Bewbs and stuff...

Cheers!
