I will definately take your advice, the only problem is my location. I live in a small town and i dont know of any comic retailers in my area... i'll look around for the right stuff... oh i also forgot to mention that i like Deadpool as well

Well thanks for your advice. Keep checking my page, I'll work on some comic stuff

deadpool kicks ass, (maybe Ill add him in the apocalypse series) but I know what you mean about being in a small townwith nothing but if you can try to order supplies from bluelinepro.com, I wish you luck, catch you on the flip-flop.

i know people dont usually do this but... would you put a watch on me? i would really like a professional opinion on some of my art and youve already helped me out so much. you dont have to but if you do that would be cool.

truly amazing ive been trying to get into comic book styled art for a long time... but no matter how hard i try, i either cant come up wtih anything original, or i cant draw it at all. great work though.


oh and for the record, my favorite X-Men character is Nightcrawler (among others)

well first of thank you.
secondly, as far as drawing comics is concernedm theres is a saying, "if you want to be on the team you have to start as the out field catcher" "hint-hint" if you want to "break-in" or start in comics do Inking.and go from there, it's not a bad start infact there's a pretty high demand for inkers in the biz.
on a different note would you like to see more of night crawler as a focused character amongst the x-men i any of the series?

sorry for the double post but i also want to say that im gonna watch you... your comic style in this is really good, and i like your interpretations of the characters. is this professionally done or just something you are doing?

good question...I'm afraid it is a little bit of both, I've been doing what I'm doing for a long time now and as of now I've been hanging with my cousin (who is a genius) and have made a "creative boom" so to speak creating different projects, this one that I am trying to concentrate on is just a sort of "what if" take, on the "Age Of Apocalypse". right now I'm just preping it for Marvel.

yes, but i dont want them to focus completely on him. that could ruin the possibilty of another favorite :

also i dont read comics that much. i would like to but i cant find one that will keep my interest for long. I have the Ultimate X-Men guide so i know TONS about the older comics and a bit about more recent ones.

well I can see your point on nightcrawler and on finding good material to keep reading for me the best xmen had ever been is when you had scott lobdell writing the storys. I looked at your art work and I liked the "robot thing" but I would like to see you do a picture that isnt on note book paper try bristol paper or comic board that you can get at any comic retailer.

Awesome bro. It's been a while since I've kept up with comics but Age of Apocalypse was the best... It introduced me to my favorite character of all time, Nathan "X-Man" Grey.

Comics are what made me get into graphic art... I just wish I could draw concept stuff like this. Good job.

you know I just checked out your work and you do some kick ass stuff man, have you tried doing more detailed pieces, or album covers...you should I think there is a market for every style especial photo manipulation if you can define it as what you truly invision it....my favorite mutant was Cable....as far as apocolypse was concerened.

I need to do some more detailed work but I truely am starting to find my niche or style when it comes to photo manip. Cable and Nate Grey = same dna structure

I think photo manip. is a great and new style of art that you don't see often in the mainstream, especialy comic books if you can hone in on that structure and do in depth images on a fantasy level (I.E, spiderman or whatever) you could make a very successfull market for yourself....it would be like combining "Lucas arts' quality work with comics.

I picked up the Astonishing X-men #11 and the flipcomic with the Astonishing X-men #2, and some other comic that was on it. I am interested in getting them all now! I was unaware Joss Whedon has been working on them for the past year! I love that guy! I also have been keeping up with the Serenity comic series from Dark Horse. Is Whedon working on the new AoA? If so, I will religiously buy every issue and ever different cover that is released.

I'm not sure if ol' jossy boy is back on "AoA" but Chris Bachelo (sp?) did the new series and Joe Maduriera (battle chasers, astonishing xmen, uncany xmen) is returning from a long term Hyedus to do the House of M series...if you havent seen his work look it up on yahoo.com
