Nordguard on Livestream

A few people have asked me over the last couple years, so I figured I'd give this whole Livestream thing a go!
Check it out, here: http://www.livestream.com/blotch

I'll be working pretty steadily on Across Thin Ice, and streaming off and on when I'm not working on pages rife with spoilers.

And, to play a little catch up on pages that I've posted up on the Nordguard website and development blog...

Page 11 & 26 from Across Thin Ice.



Pages 30 & 47 of Across Thin Ice

You can see a whole lot more, including in-progress photos of these pages, concept art and studies from the comic either on www.nordguard.com or here on Blogspot.

Half Dome

I started painting this back in 2009 and it gave me weeks worth of trouble trying to make it look halfway decent. Frustrated, and contemplating burning it in the desert, I stuffed it into the dark recesses of a closet for a year.
It would resurface every four or five months, and with much gnashing of teeth and words to make a sailor blush, I would attempt to throw a few more paint strokes at it--until I'd again get frustrated and hide it somewhere new. Today, I found it again (under the air conditioner) and figured I'd do the two or three or twelve things to at least make it "whole," though it is not exactly what "I was going for."

It's nice to consider it finished and have it off my mind for 2011! ;]

Wizard and Gypsy

This was a Christmas gift I made for two of the Sofawolf Press fellows earlier in December, which has their two huskies, Wizard and Gypsy, doing Sofawolfy things. :]
