Divisions

"Divisions"

Here's one of the pieces that's kept me quite busy over the last few weeks! :]

This is the cover for Kyell Gold's newest novel, Divisions--the third in the Out of Position series of books, following the journey of Lee the fox, and Dev the tiger. Here's Kyell's official announcement about the title!

You can find out more about the books over on Kyell's website, over here!

I also did ten interior illustrations, plus chapter heads for the book.

Divisions will be available through Sofawolf Press, making it's debut at FurtherConfusion in January!

Apocalypse Party


It's the end of the world, so you might as well make it a party!

The Sponsor Badge, and Regular Attendee Badge, for MiDFur: The Furry Apocalypse!
As you can see, they join together, and Sponsors get both!

I went with a dingo as the MiDFuR charity will benefit the Australian Dingo Foundation, and a 'roo since 'roos are pretty awesome.

Oh! And, if you're planning on headed to MiDFur and would like to guarantee getting any books from the Sofawolf Press catalog at the convention (and avoid steep shipping fees,) check this out!

The Last Weeks; The Upcoming Weeks

The last couple of weeks have been busy ones, split between working on an assortment of projects, personal time and social calls. The most notable of things I’ve been working on has been the interior illustrations and cover artwork for Kyell Gold’s upcoming novel, the third book in the Out of Position series. Kyell has not yet make the official announcement just yet, releasing the title of the new book, but that will be soon when I’ve finished up the cover!

Keep an eye out next week (either here, or @screwbald on Twitter,) since I’ll probably LiveStream painting one of the interior illustrations, and Kyell will jump on the chat to answer questions about the book, writing, or life in general!


In the upcoming weeks, I will actually be at Midwest Furfest! I wasn’t planning on it until fairly recently, but you’ll still find me in the dealer’s den, most likely camping a corner of the Sofawolf Press tables!

The reason for the schedule change is a rather unfortunate one. While I will be at MWFF in November, I cannot travel to MidFur this December as planned due to circumstances entirely out of my control. Don’t worry though! The convention has the ever-awesome and wonderful Dark Natasha stepping up to take my place! And in 2013 you will find me there, hell or high water!

Oh, and just a note for you Australians: If you are going to MidFur, and you’d like to get any books from the Sofawolf Press catalog—which includes Nordguard: Across Thin Ice, Dog’s Days of Summer, HEAT Vol. 1-9, or many of Kyell Gold’s titles, check this out! You can pre-order books/comics for pick up at the convention, and save a substantial amount on shipping!
(By the way, Kyell Gold will also be at MiDFur, so you can get your books signed! Just sayin’…!)


Between other art-things, Scratches Vol. 6 has been coming along, slow but steady. My aim is to have it out for MFF, but some things you can’t rush.

Also, I apologize if anyone has emailed or noted in the last couple weeks and I haven’t responded. I fell behind on email and contact with the outside world, and it’s been a slow recovery to normal!

Speaking of which, time to finish the rest of these OOP3 illustrations…!

Commissions; Charity Ladder Auction

People ask every now and then about commissions, or prices, and I figured I'd make a quick note about it!

I don't actually do commissions! The reason for this is largely due to a lack of spare time. My days are spent mainly on comics, artwork for various projects or publications, or just illustrations I feel like painting for myself or close friends. I haven't openly taken commissions in over four years, aside from the occasional sketch commission at smaller conventions.

Not that I mind folks asking at all! I figured a blanket statement might spare some people a little time when looking for an artist. :]


However, on that note, I am offering a single character sketch as part of a charity ladder auction to benefit a local shelter, Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue!


Click Here for the Auction!
100% of proceeds benefit the charity!
Auction ends on Sept. 30th!

My sketch offer is just a drop in the pond compared to all the wonderful and awesome stuff in the auction. Here's just a few of the listings: Fursuit partial from Jillcostumes, a full color piece from Tani DaReal, badges from various artists like Mary Mouse, Henrieke, and Idess, surprise pottery by Dingbat... really, this is just a couple of the things the winner receives!

Check out the auction for the full listing, and more information on the Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue!

Black Wolf






A small, badge-sized (3"x4") black wolf I painted, both as a break from other stuff and to play around with a bit of metallic paint.

The original will likely end up at the EuroFurence art show in a few weeks, so check it out!


You can see a sped-up/time lapsed video of me painting this image on LiveStream, right here!
