Step X Step: Justice league Dark

I recently illustrated my first cover for DC, and in the doing checked something off my bucket list.  I got to draw Swamp Thing professionally.  As a kid I had a borderline unhealthy fixation with the Swamp Thing movie. I loved everything about it, a superhero/horror movie.. check, Credence intro.. check, Wes Craven.. check, Adrienne Barbeau.. CHECK!  As I got older my love of the character only grew once I discovered he was created by Bernie Wrightson.  When I was offered my pick of several different books to do a cover for, I immediately informed them of my ST love (and Justice League Dark in general)  The AD informed me that JLD was one of the books available.  I got very excited and started doing work, the process of which I have laid out below.

The original drawing, sans digital color will be available at IlluXCon next week.  Graphite on bristol board 11 x 17.

12th Annual Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards

Hey all,  It is time once again for the Rondo Awards.  Please take the time to tie to go and vote.  It is very important to me to maintain exposure for the classics, and remember when "Monsters" were more than just killing machines (not that there is anything wrong with that) and mood and storytelling took precedence over gore and body count.  So head over and vote, be sure to read the instructions carefully and if you feel so inclined write me in  for category 30. Artist of the Year (Pro)
