A commission I just finished for @Shadow1972  THE SHADOW STRIKES! I’m rather intimidated by the fact that it’s apparently going to end up in this gallery here with some frankly scary company. Boy was this fun to draw. Anyway, if you like this, why not consider getting a piece of your own? For this week only I’m offering 25% off all orders! CLICK HERE!

THE SHADOW STRIKES!

A poster I just finished for Kehaar (also known as @clarkythecruel on twitter), co presenter of the Dissecting Worlds podcast. I’ve done quite a lot of art for Clarky, you can find some of it over at http://alfiesantics.wordpress.com/ - where you’ll also find out a bit more about what this poster is all about. Go on, have a look. I’ll wait. Anyway, this took quite a while- Kehaar loves his period detail, and I’ve got used to having to work from quite comprehensive reference for his commissions, but this piece took that to a whole new level. I’m not complaining; I relish the challenge- but it certainly contributed to the length of time the piece took to complete. I’m pretty happy with it, although Peter Lorre at the top there is *supposed* to look like a young Oliver Reed. But other than that, I think it’s all pretty solid.

First Weekly Round Up From My Other Tumblr

I have two tumblr blogs. This one, which is for stuff relating to my art and comics, and bigfootrock.tumblr.com, which is more of a personal blog, where I mainly reblog stuff I like but also occasionally talk about stuff and post other things too. Of course, there’s a good chance that if you follow this one, there may be things on the other that will interest you, so I’ve decided to post some links to the highlights from over there once a week.

So, in chronological order:

So, that was my week. Hope yours was equally cool.

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER (Spaceman Vs. Dinosaur) The romantic first meeting between a lonely spaceman and a beautiful dinosaur. Oh how they looked back on this in later years and laughed (Felt pen on paper). So, I said I’d be doing more drawings specifically to sell as prints. Here’s the first one. Go on, click here and get yourself one, you know it’d look great on the living room wall. The original is also for sale, if anyone’s interested. Let’s say… £30? Email me at davidjlwynne AT gmail DOT com if you’re interested, or if you prefer you can contact me on here or via twitter.

I have prints for sale. Click here to have a look.

I know I already posted about this, but judging from my stats over there, I need to keep pushing it for a while yet.

You can get the pictures in a multitude of formats, for a wide range of prices- from postcards at around £1:25 each (which seems a little bit steep, I admit) to standard A4 “photographic” prints for £7 and change (which is very reasonable indeed), or even framed versions that’ll set you back quite a lot, but look very nice. There are plenty of options in between, including greetings cards and those weird canvas print things. 

IDEASMAN VS KILLAZILLA is even available as a swank A2 poster (that’s MASSIVE) for £15. I’m tempted to get one myself. Unfortunately, I don’t have any cash. Hey, buy my stuff!

I’m going to be adding to this collection, and if you have any suggestions for things you’d like to see available as prints please let me know. I’m not very good at predicting what people will like, so I need all the help I can get with that.

Anyway, yes, please click the link and have a look, and if you see something you like, consider getting one for yourself or a friend. Go on. 

Go Buy Prints Of My Art (If You Want To)

There’s a couple of Ideasman pieces available there (including the one from the previous post) as well as a few of those geek-heroes-as-musicians pieces from last autumn. I get 25% of any purchase you make, so do consider getting the most expensive options so I can buy that Norwegian castle I’ve been dreaming about.

Would anybody be interested in buying this as a print? I can make that happen.

THINGS I WOULD LIKE YOU TO KNOW

Yesterday I posted a quick rundown of some of my comics that are available to read for free online- and also Hypergirl, which isn’t free, but is reasonably priced, and, yknow, award-winning. What? You know I’m going to keep pointing that out.

Anyway, it occurred to me a bit later that Sunday evening might actually be the least effective time to post such a thing, so that’s why I’m telling you again.

Another thing: a reminder that this tumblr you are reading right now is all about my art and stuff. If you want to know about stuff I like, people I like, what I think about things, and/or interact with me in a social-networky kind of way, you’ll also need to follow bigfootrock.tumblr.com/ which is where I do all that stuff.

I figure the fact that I have 60 something followers here but only 9 over there suggests that a lot of you haven’t caught on to that yet. I made the decision to start using 2 separate tumblrs after realising that any time I directed someone to my blog, there was good chance they’d be faced with a gif of a cat punching a dog in the face (at BEST); which, while cool, is not necessarily the best way to promote my comics, y’know?

The downside to this, of course, is that now when I reblog something cool by someone I want to help promote, it only gets seen by 9 people. This is not an ideal situation, and I may switch tactics again in the future. Maybe a weekly link roundup of cool stuff I want people to look at or something. But yeah, for now, if we’re friends? Follow bigfootrock.tumblr.com/ Because you know you need the awesome in your life.

Oh and if you follow me on here and don’t follow me on twitter? You don’t know me at ALL

#brainboxupdate: You asked what comics I’m reading, here’s what I’m behind on and what...

jackiekashian:

You asked what comics I’m reading, here’s what I’m behind on and what I picked up today:

Marvel
Black Panther - Liss, Oeming, Serrano
Generation Hope - Asmus, Roberson, Charalampiois
New Mutants - Abnett, Lanning, D.Lopez, A.Lopez, Staples
The Invincible Ironman - Fraction, Larroca, D’Armata
…

My goodness, Jackie, that’s a lot of books. I thought *my* pull list was too long! There’s a lot of good stuff on there, though.

New ambition: get something of mine on that list.
