Neato! My art is in a book...


Take a look! I did a pin up for Craig Yoe's new Jetta book (Craig Yoe is the guy who brought us the Arf Museum art books, as well as the Milt Gross book everyone is raving about). I haven't gotten my copy of the book yet, but I've had a chance to see what's inside, and it looks amazing. In case you don't know about Jetta already, it's a Dan DeCarlo comic about a super cute spacegirl. Here's my pin up...





...and here's the cover of the book. If you want to see more from the book, this blog has tons of art and info!



There's tons of comics in it, as well as some extra Dan DeCarlo art, and lots of beautiful pin ups from guest artists. There were a lot I really loved, so it was hard to choose just a few to show off here, but here are a few of my favorites:







Here's a couple of close ups from my submission...




These were drawn in my favorite way to draw- straight pen to paper, then loose marker coloring over it. Then I scanned in the individual poses and arranged them in Photoshop, adding tons of weird effects to it.



Shake yer space booty...arrg...I lost the sketchbook that has the originals for these, and the color comps. If I find it I'll post those too!

Thanks for taking a look! Go get this book, it's a must for anyone who likes cute space chicks and funny comics!

P.S. Upcoming posts include "how we make Skadi" and weird man drawings! For all you guys out there who get on my back for not drawing men, I DO draw them, I'm just not proud of them. But I'll post them just for you. Harrumph!

Thanks for reading! (^u^)/
