On the Drawing Board- 8/4/08
Currently taking up all my time on the drawing board:
- MAD Project- Movie parody. I don’t want to give it away as it’s top secret so I am afraid I’ll have to keep everyone in The Dark. Night life will be a luxury I cannot afford for a while, however.
- On Line Game Project- Finishing the last of the character avatars this week. Hopefully it will be on-line soon and I can share the URL.
- Scholastic job- Three illustrations for one of the Scholastic publications based on Socrates. Stuck in review right now.
- Workplace poster- Regular job from that client.
Speaking of which, here’s the one I did last month for them. Pencils, revisions, inks, color… click on images for a closer look:
Initial pencil sketch
Revised according to art direction
Minimal inks… black areas going to be added with color
Final color illustration

Hi Tom…..I like your Clever hint about the MAD project! I get it! And appropriate that YOU were assigned this honor! Awesome!
The halloween portrait is just simply beautiful! I may be retarded, but I prefer the INKED version more than the full color! I just love that inked look! Long ago, I used to use those crow-quill ink pens…man were they sloppy!
The guy holding the teddy bear in the first draft looks a little too much like Barak Obama. I’m glad the final doesn’t look like anybody famous.
