so i'm finally updating after months of silence. sorry. i know - ur all so devastated. =P but u know the deal: tired from work - worked too hard on my day job - gettin old. all that good stuff! i didn't even make it to the Pittsburgh Comic Con this year which i don't think i've ever missed a convention that ID Comics attends. all thanks to my job (and the fact that my back spazzed out during that time). altho - i've heard i didn't miss much. that con has gotten pretty bad, attendance-wise, ever since the dude that ran it got found guilty on that murder trial. eep! guess there is such a thing as bad press.
now, however, i'm extremely excited about going to Heroes Con in Charlotte, NC in a couple weeks! can't believe it sneaks up on me every friggin year! i must find some time for me to do art stuffs and get over this "tired" thing. is it cuz i'm nearing yet another decade of my life and this is just what happens when u get this old?! i feel like even when i was a young spry teen i wasn't all that spry. i mean all i had going on back then was school and volleyball and art club. (tho if u ask me back then, i'd have told u i was gettin worked too hard then. silly teens!) if i don't finish this poison ivy by the con, i'm gonna really be disappointed. i hate showing up to shows with the same stuff all the time. then again, i guess i should just be happy about the fact that i can actually walk now and not have to worry about waddling around on a cane the whole time.

so for a little while, i was working on a set of sketchcards for 5finity called P'Ups. it's basically pin-ups and puppies. two things that are smack dab in my forte?!?! i couldn't pass it up no matter how much i dislike working on such a small medium. i've only been allowed the one image to post up until the release of the card set. so once i get word, i'll post the rest of what i've done. i actually really liked it! i hope i can get to work on the same subject matter sometime in the future, just on bigger paper. that is, of course, if i can somehow find time for myself. T__T
the other image is a commission i recently finished of this guy's original characters. (yes, they both have 4 arms. that's not an anatomical error. =P)
