<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The Thrilling Adventure Hour Graphic Novel is now available at your local comic book shop. It features 16 full color pages illustrated by yours truly. So far it's been very well received by critics and fans. As I understand it, the first print run is sold out— scooped up by distributers. So get one while you can!</span><br />

Hello there! Seeing as it's been almost six months since my last web log post I thought you might like to know what I've been up to. Would you? I'm going to assume the answer is yes— or at least "sorta."</div>

In addition to working at Laika Inc. on their upcoming movie, <a href="http://www.theboxtrolls.com/" target="_blank">The Boxtrolls</a>, I'm tickled pink to report I have a contribution to the upcoming Thrilling Adventure Hour Graphic Novel. If you're not familiar with the Thrilling Adventure Hour, it's a live show and <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/thrilling-adventure-hour/id408691897" target="_blank">podcast</a> created by the brilliant writing duo, Ben Acker and Ben Blacker. The show has been running since 2005 and features a variety of original segments performed in the style of old time radio plays. Now the Bens have taken the next step and created a series of short stories featuring their beloved characters in a new graphic novel from Archaia Entertainment.</div>

I illustrated the Jefferson Reid: Ace American segment and I'm really pleased with how it came out. I'll share some more art from the book sometime in the future but for now here's an older unpublished piece I did inspired by the Jefferson Reid characters. Don't miss it y'all! Thanks always for checking in!</div>

It's the first time I've drawn a corporate mascot. If you're not familiar with the history of Cap'N Crunch's likeness, a quick search on google images is well worth a look. He was steadily transformed from an endearing elderly </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">cartoon cereal spokesman (by Jay Ward studios) to a corporate focus group nightmare. He's a strange fellow. I was trying to create a character that looked like a traditional cartoon. Here are some samples of drawings I made of the Cap'N. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I thought it would be fun to show a few bits and pieces of the process behind the animation and other elements that went into Scary Smash. I worked very closely with the director, my friend, Daniel Strange, throughout the process. Dan had followed a series of illustrations I made of Santa Claus last year and was interested in creating animation that would create a similarly unique blend of line and texture. Dan had a definite vision and was quickly sending me some ideas for what those textures would be. This direction worked out well, since I had been collecting and creating my own textures for years now. This look did derail one aspect of animating Scary Smash though— it wasn't going to be practical to animate it in Flash. The textures made it far too difficult. It was going to have to be hand drawn and colored in Photoshop. This approach would look as if the monster were cut out of felt. It looked great but it was laborious.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">After scanning in all the drawings, I arranged them in layers in Photoshop, then I would use a series of action scripts to paste in various textures. After dropping each texture I would move it to a slightly different location so that the texture wouldn't remain static behind the drawing. This creates the grainy fluttering effect you see when the monster is on screen.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The first multi-eyed monster to appear (whom we affectionately named "Hundo") was easily the most challenging to create and color. I wound up creating each frame in three layers— the front set of eyes, then Hundo's tentacles, then the back set of eyes. This meant I could loop the back set of eyes and allow the tentacles to move over top of them at a slightly longer loop, then I could animate the dozens of other eyes and the mouth as needed. I thought it would be funny if just one set of eyes had an angry expression.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Each frame of the water started as a high contrast black and white drawing created with a brush and a sponge. I then pasted a series of colored sponge textures I had created and added some finishing touches using custom brushes in Photoshop. So basically each frame is hand painted (Dan was the stand in for this sequence while I worked on the animation— the shot with Mr. Whedon hadn't occurred yet).</span></div>

THIS is the reason I haven't posted anything on my web log since— forever. I had to keep it under wraps. It stars full-on heroes and an almighty heroine— Dave Foley, Joss Whedon and Kim Micucci. I'll be posting a few process pieces in the future. Thanks always for paying attention to what I do. Please share it with friends if you like it.</div>
