Just Some Fun
This is a random page from a side project I've been doing in between everything else. Just something for fun that looks like it may actually hatch into something. You can never tell with these things. This will be in color someday. :)I tend to forget when I "zone out" and get a little detail crazy that I'm going to have to color at some point. I'm sure my head will explode when the time comes but, hopefully, it'll have been worth it.
Play Nice!
Latest doings

Grave Business Cover
Here's the cover for Grave Business. The logo was done by Minion's Graphic Designer Clay Gardner (except I did the hand). I noticed Clay used Nate's 'Entrails' Font and was happy to hear it was all bought and paid for ;)

The Comic Book Guide to the Mission
Not totally Ur-related, but I was recently commissioned to do this cover art for 'The Comic Book Guide to the Mission'. I was very honored to do it especially since the book features work by many great local cartoonists here in SF. As you can see, I had a lot of fun with it and really went to town, so to speak!
The book has shipped and is now available for order at http://www.skodaman.com">

Going's On
Hey Wizards, I've been pretty busy lately working on some projects and spreading the Indy comic love through Ka-Blam. It also seems that my busy schedule has no let up in sight which is a good thing.
So here's what's going on.
Besides my gig with Ka-Blam, I'm working on three comic projects at the moment. One is in the beginning stages and is a sci-fi/espionage epic written by Thomas Hall, the creator of the critically acclaimed Indy series' Robot 13 and King from Blacklist Studios. This should surprise anyone who's followed my work as Thomas has given me a unique and different path to explore with my art. I'm pretty excited by all of it.
The second project is one that has been in the works for a few years. It's a story written by my longtime friend and Ka-Blam cohort, Jenni Gregory of Dreamwalker, Abbie's Menagerie fame called "Becky's Alien". It's something of a sci/fi story but very character driven. Jenni's way with character development is one of her strongest assets as a writer. Just check out her work on Dreamwalker. We're hoping to premiere this one at Megacon 2011 in Orlando next month.
The third project is one that has been more of a personal project; something I do when I need to relax or have a few spare minutes in the day. It's all the cool stuff I love to doodle and write about. Expect a plethora of aliens, ugly humans, boobs, flying cars, political/religious mysteries, lots of trash and dirty sidewalks. I'm not sure where I'm going with this one. I may just release it as a graphic novel whenever I get to the finish line. I hadn't realized how many pages I had done for this until recently so I figured I could probably mention it as I'm sure I'll see it through to the end now. Page on the right there is a random page from this project. Still needs color.
That's it!
Sharing is caring, no?
Play Nice.

Grave Business
I've been very remiss at posting here lately, sojurning as I have been in the outer rims of Ur. Great to see that the rest of you guys are still posting and have done so much fantastic work in my absence.
Among other things I'm doing the art for a new game by MinionGames. Here's a sneak peek at some of it:

Long time no post...
Hey guys! For some reason I wasn't able to log into blogger using my hotmail username, so I haven't posted here in ages. I have not been idle however. In fact, I found out this week that I won a Xeric grant to publish Much book 3! The image above is a sketch for the cover that I'd like some opinions on. What do you think? I'll post all the comic updates I missed in just a sec.

Moebius Blog
This is one of the best resources for the works of Jean "Moebius" Giraud on the web. It seems to be updated almost daily, or anytime I make my way over there. If your a fan of Moebius then you'll find this fascinating. If you have no idea who the man is, then this would be the place to get a look at his magic. The blog is called "Quenched Consciousness." It also contains some mature themes. Not safe for work.
Awesome stuff!
Play Nice.

I'm Alive..and does anyone care?!
Hey there, Wizards and wenches. Apologies for not posting much these days. I'm busy, busy and very busy, on all sorts of things. My duties with Ka-Blam are keeping me very busy. I just wrapped up another freelance gig and have begun working on a comic project with a very cool writer which I hope to start talking about early next year. With all that going on, I've managed to break some child-labor laws to put together my first art book called, DEBRIS. The title is more appropriate than you know. In a way it will close a long chapter of my life and open another. It'll be around 124 pages and available sometime in January. I'll have more news when I know for sure. I want to wish a Happy Holidays to my fellow wizards and anyone who wanders past our tower of pain.
Talk to ya' soon!
Play Nice,
Tony

Imagery From West World
Here are a few doodles and images I've done recently. Some are altered for a general audience, generally speaking.
Dragonrider
Hello ladies and gentlemen. Contrary to what you read in the paper I was not captured by mutant voodoo princesses, cooked in a stew of rosemary and thyme, and subsequently eaten by a grue. Instead, I've been holed up drawing comics and being completely antisocial.
I somehow managed to draw 74 comic strips in the past 4 months. By far my most productive phase. Trouble is most of 'em are dirty as hell so I can't share much here.
But I've turned over a new leaf. I'm wiping the slate. Cleansing the pallet. I can change, really I can! I'm working on a new project now and I'll start sharing some of it once I get the details hammered out.
Keep rocking.
