New Mac and Trouble art

Here's a few colored pieces from Dan Gorman and myself for upcoming "Mac and Trouble" comic projects... a secret is in the works !

My favorite is the one with he faces at top - I love the expressions and the storytelling involved...

New cards !

Complications from my recent surgery have slowed me down a bit, but I wanted to post some recent cards I've worked on.

These first few rows are from the Upper Deck "Marvel Beginnings 2" card set. I decided to do older Marvel monsters and pre-code characters. I was happy with the outcome...

These next few are from Ken Galan's "Contemporary Pinups" card set. Really a nice first issue from Ken Galan and I wish him luck with his future endeavors. I had studio shots made of them because I liked the look of silhouettes.

Finally, for Cult-Stuff's "Titanic" set, I did this sketchy shot of the Titanic captain's statue in England. Really a nice set, looking forward to it.

Obviously, I did more cards for these sets - but I can't share them all :)

Enjoy !
