FIVE YEARS IN THE MAKING!  Well, with a 3 year writers block. But I finally wrestled the ending out of a story I was making up as I went along. This admittedly is quite a new look for SPACED, as my pencil-to-digital workflow does push me to a simpler style. This is the first time I have tried a story in greyscale instead of BW with zipatone.

THANKS to those supporting and advising over the lengthy gap between chapters. Anthony Smith, Joe Vecchio and John Williams...

 A bit backwards, but here is the first chapter of the latest Spaced short! Look at that copyright -- I've been trying to finish for five years!!

 SPACED LIVES although not that vibrantly. YEARS late, I am trying to finish the most recent Spaced adventure. Here is the latest...

 MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!

 Sailing away on Celebrity Beyond in the near future. It's good to personalize your cabin door for late night room searching.

 SHH! Can't tell you WHY I am coloring a strip done in 1991 - besides the fact it is a little seen personal favortie. Going crazy with the cheese whiz, my inescapable influence of Rich Corben, Vaugh Bode, and a lot of Heavy Metal magazine stars.

Hopefully can share more later...

WELL! It has been a while since I posted -- sorry!!

Showing some preliminary inks on the long delayed part two of my "new" SPACED story.

 Here’s a look at my process from story boards to first level sketch. The 8 1/2 x 11 page is my rough thumbnail for where the characters need to be and dialogue balloons must be placed. To the left or the initial sketches which are also roughs, tighter than a thumbnail, but definitely not finished drawing. They will go to one more stage of penciling and tightening up before I move them to the iPad and ink them with Clip Studio. Then I will go into Photoshop for additional toning.

Finally, an end to writers' block

After at least a  year, I have found my way back to finishing the Spaced story begun for the 400+ page digital edition. Picking up where I left off, here are some previews WIP panels...

 

FREE COLOR SPACED!

 Since Amazon absorbed Comixology, my digital comics are no longer available. The hoops required aren't appealing, since I rarely sell more than $20 a year? So here we go - FREE for YOU _ the color version of my Plastron Cafe feature. Never printed or published in color beyond the 400 page Spaced compilation. Enjoy!!
