Rodd Racer on my table...



So, I'm finishing Rodd Racer pretty soon.

The top photo is a sketch of one of the characters "Drag'on" for a student of mine for his sketchbook... from my book "Rodd Racer".

The second photo is a shot of my drawing table with some of the "Rodd Racer" pages kinda spread out as I try to figure out what the hell I'm doing...as I try to figure out when the heck I'll finally be done drawing the book...

that's all your getting as far as a preview for now.
But I promise a fitting preview of the artwork soon!!

Cant believe people havent left you comments. Amazing work! Your inking is what really draws me in. A step by step process would be awesome! Keep up the good work and can't wait for the Tourist!

Thank you.
I'm planning to post a step by step of a painting I'm working on soon.

I'll also talk a bit about my storytelling, and drafting choices in future posts.
see you soon!

Looking REALLY great Toby. I recognize some pages from before, looks like you've really expanded things though. Can't wait to see the finished product.

I saw The Tourist got picked up by Image. Looking forward to that in APril as well.

Thought i'd drop you a line. We met at SDCC and I bought a few of your pages from Tourist. You showed me some of that early work for Drag'on and Rodd Racer, and some story boards for War of Flesh. We swapped some drawings. Some ideas. Some laughs.

Ladies and gentlmen you think those images look good on this site, track this man down at a con and see those kinetics up close.

Keep up with those jazz lines, and punk rock inking. Cheers.

P.S. How do I advance order a copy of Rodd Racer?
