I've been doing a lot of both! The sketch cards were marker, ink and acrylics. I love those Copics! I've been doing a BIT more in photoshop but have been concentrating on my pencils to really make them stronger!

Steve, just wonderful work! Really sharp, I was wondering if you are doing a book/ series right now!?!

cheers, Peter.

Just wanted to pop in and say that your sketching is still amazing. Great job!

I'm working on some samples for Aspen comics right now. So I'll just have to keep the faith. And thanks for the comments. Comments like these help push me forward to reaching my goal. Steve

Yeah. I was highly disappointed with so many things in that movie. Mainly emo Peter Parker... The moments I had to deal with that, I was cringing in my seat with an urge to throw something at the screen. Though I also had a kid near me who wouldn't shut the hell up, so that contributed to it too.

[ Posted by vector on May 9th, 2007 3:48 PM ]... Same experience here, I had a guy coughing loudly through out the whole movie! The side sandman origin kinda was to much for me. Steve

[ Posted by Kurio on May 9th, 2007 6:26 AM ]...

Yea I saw Spidey 3. And being a bigger fan of the comics, I dont know. Like as a movie it was good. But as an adaption of one of the most popular characters in the world... Im not sure that they did too well on it.

[ Posted by vector on May 9th, 2007 11:54 AM ]... Spidey 1& 2 were great, I walked away from #3 thinking it was just okay! Steve

[ Posted by Kurio on May 8th, 2007 9:52 PM ]...

I've been thinking of super hero mostly. But nothing original has been popping out in my head. Of course with reading Watchmen lately I would really love an Alan Moore style of a book. But again, nothing much comes to mind right off the bat.

[ Posted by vector on May 9th, 2007 6:11 AM ]... The watchmen is a good place to start!! I've been sitting on a couple story lines I came up with over the years but I'm not much of a writter. I'm bettter with plots! You see Spidey 3 yet!! Steve

This being when my samples weren't half as good as they are now. I think Joe Q. must have changed the art director there. Thanks for the comment Steve

It's in it's final stages. Being lettered right now. I'm actually having a hard time deciding on fonts and placement and wasn't planning on paying someone to do it so it's holding things up a bit. :/ Our company has two comics. I'll post some more up hopefully next week. Thanks so much for your interest. I'd love to know more about your comic to.

But it's coming along well. Our preview book will be out at Chicago's wizard world con. where myself and the writter (brad nelson) have a table. But keep me posted on you're book. It looks like its going to be a good one. Steve
