Best In Show Comic

As we roll toward spring and convention season, my free time becomes more and more spare…Right now I’m working on another package design for Chris Stanglers Camaros as well as a web image for my good friend Freddy and his soon-to-be-up-and-running web site called Sgt. Shultz the Ewok. Below is the black and white artwork for these two projects that will be finished in full color. The finished pieces will be posted as soon as they’re done! Enjoy!

St. Patrick's Day Leprechaun for Stangler's custom Hot Wheel packaging.

Once (or should I say twice) more I have been honored to make the acquaintance of a very talented artist. Jim Horwitz is the creator of Watson, www.watsonstrip.com, a comic strip about a boy and his dog, told one panel at a time. The best thing about Jim is that he lives close by, so we can get together, have a drink and talk shop.

Daniel Boris is the creator of Hoxwinder Hall, www.hoxwinderhall.com, a comic strip about two brothers that smuggle a pet alligator home from their family vacation to Florida. Hoxwinder Hall was voted one of the top 5 finalists in the Washington Post’s “America’s Next Great Cartoonist Contest”. He’s a cool dude with some really clever comics!

Read and enjoy!

Hey everybody!  Here’s more sketches from my Little Black Sketch Book, one that I’ve brought with me to the Reuben Awards in Boston and as you will see, the Annual NCS Meeting here in Minneapolis this past fall.  I still get giddy when I flip through it…

Chad Carpenter, creator of Tundra, probably the most successful self-syndicated artist around.
