Space Battles

Continuing my recent theme of sharing drawings from my the next installment of my epic comic, Cosmic Boat, here is a picture I snapped of the completed two page spread. This illustration features the ship, Bud Shulberg, taking part in the Battle of Paper Nebula. This is officially the last drawing for chapter 2 of the comic, appearing soon in the next issue of MOUTH Magazine.

Cosmic Boat Chapter 2 Progress

 

 

Here are two finished pages - minus dialog and "sound" effects - from the next chapter of my space opera comic strip, Cosmic Boat, soon to appear in the next issue of MOUTH Magazine. I've been working hard to make sure it actually makes sense and the interesting ideas I have for the series are apparent to anyone that might read it.

Walking Contradiction Drawings

Here are some drawings I dug up that I had done on spec for the Green Day in 1996 or so. They were for a single release for the song, Walking Contradiction, from their album, Insomnia. You may not recognize them because they were not used. The drawings were met with silence and so I assume that they were not really what the band was looking for at the time. Nonetheless, I've always been fond of them, especially the bird with the tweeting naked man on his shoulder. These are from a period where I was preoccupied with classic Hanna Barbara cartoon character design (I still am).

Lookout Records 1999 Winter Catalog Cover

This is something I uncovered while digging through some old Lookout-related art archive CD-Rs. It's a drawing I did that I'd originally imagined being used for The Mr. T Experience - maybe a 7" cover or t-shirt. Ultimately, it was a little too specific and didn't correlate to anything MTX was doing at the time so instead it became the cover art for the 1999 / 2000 Lookout Records printed catalog.

Punk Planet Magazine Back Cover Advertisement

This is a full page print ad I made for Punk Planet in 1998. I don't recall what the drawing is supposed to mean or how it exactly relates to the quote by Louis Armstrong. This was an attempt of mine to create a style of ads for Lookout that were unique - illustrating a quote from someone notable in what I hoped would be a fresh or funny approach. Another Punk Planet ad I did can be found here and here are some paintings that were done for this ad series. I'll work on tracking down the actual finished designs and posting them soon.

First is an illustration for a Lookout Records catalog from 1999; next an unused illustration for a Lookout full-page fanzine ad; sticker artwork for the short-lived band surf(ish) band The Locals (featuring Blatz's Marshall Stax on 12 string guitar, Josh Von Indar from Black Fork, a Pre-Drunk Horse and Saviours Cyrus Cominsky, on bass and yours truly as drummer); and finally a four-panel comic from 1993 originally printed in my fanzine Puddle.

Old Punk Art Round-up

Here are a number of drawings uncovered as I was going through some boxes of papers. These are all from 1991 or so. The first one is two pages long about a talking toilet. There are also some Lookout Records fanzine ads, sticker art I created for my band Bumblescrump and other comic attempts.
