Vacation, Work, Commissions, Galleries, yadda yadda...

 It's been a long time since my last posting because of a long awaited and well needed 2 week vacation and the pre-vacation 2 week work crunch to get as much work done as I could beforehand. It was great putting the pencil down for awhile but I must admit, by the end, I couldn't wait to get back to work. 

 Now that I am back at work, I'm slowly getting caught up on my backlog of commissions and AP's and all the other stuff I need to get done. While I'm thinking of it, Thanks to all that have been patiently waiting for their commissions and approvals. I will be getting to all active commissions before my next gig starts. I do have a secondary commission waiting list with a number of names on it and if there is any time left, I will be digging in to that also. I've had emails inquiring about Vampirella AP's. Yes, I do have them, no I don't know if I will actually have the time to do any, which bugs the hell out of me. If I can get to any, I will post and let everyone know.

Speaking of Vampi, I have now posted all 50 of the cards I did for the incentives in my Sketch Card Galleries section. Enjoy the walk through. 

Lots of cool things coming up in the next few months and I'm looking forward to sharing.

Until then...

Later

Vampirella Sketch Cards and My Schedule

 I've just got word that all my Vampirella Sketches have been approved by Dynamite. Here is the list of all my cards and yes, I will be posting all the images in my Sketch Card Galleries. These are all color and I've tried to balance the subjects where there are other characters represented while still having enough Vampirella images available to keep the majority happy.

2 ADAM VAN HELSING 

4 BLOOD RED QUEEN OF HEARTS  

1 CONRAD VAN HELSING

2 DIXIE

4 DRACULA

2 DRACULINA

2 LA FANU

2 NYX

2 PIXIE

1 SCARLET LEGION

28 VAMPIRELLA

 

On another note, I have been extra busy and I know full well I have been slacking in getting Blog posts up. Between my regular freelance schedule, all the AP's & commissions currently active, upgrading to a new computer system, and reorganizing from the ground up a completely unorganized studio, (and don't forget trying to maintain some sort of family life) there really hasn't been enough time to squeeze anything else in. And to all that may be waiting on stuff or are hoping to hear from me about anything, I promise you are not forgotten and I will be getting to everything and everyone.

Thanks

WM

Casual Friday #27

Morning all and come on in Friday!

 It's been a long week but I'm getting things done. And as you can see I even got around to drawing a Casual Friday. It helps when you wake up at 3 am, wide awake with nothing to do.

I've been working on designs and practicing drawing Vampirella to nail down the look I want to go with before I start the actual cards. (Which I'll probably start around Mondayish) So I thought I'd kill 2 birds with one drawing and also give a little Vampi preview at the same time.

Later.

Vampirella Card Set Sketch Cards

I have signed on to do a limited number of Vampirella Sketch cards for Breygent that I believe will be Case Incentives. (at least they will be at the time of this posting) I'm pretty excited about jumping into these as I've been a Vampi fan for a long time. How could I not read a magazine that had "Warren" in the corner of every issue?

  I'll be starting them this week and after Woman of Marvel and Dangerous Divas, I hope I"m practiced up enough to do Vampirella the justice she deserves. 

I'll keep this updated and post scans when I can.

Later
