Heroes Con wrap-up part 2

Here are the sketches that I did while at the con. All of these are 8.5"x11", except Banshee which is 2"x3" and Thor which is about 5"x7". Heroes Con is always an amazing time and I recommended  as highly as possible to artists and fans. You will not be disappointed.

Captain's Comic Expo 2016

I had the good fortune to attend Captain's Comic Expo in Charleston recently. It was a great show thanks to Mike and his team. Here are some sketches done for the show or at the show.

Heroes Con 2014 wrap-up

-->

As usual let me start by saying BEST. HEROES CON. EVER!!!!

Yes, anyone who attends Heroes Con in anyway, shape or form always says this. It’s the great fans/attendees, it’s the awesome staff and volunteers, it’s all the amazing guests and retailers, it’s all part of what makes Heroes Con so special. For me, this year set a new standard because my family came to the con with me.

Shelton Drum has been very deliberate, and wisely so, in making sure that Heroes is a “family-friendly” convention. I’ve always known that, but never really experienced it as I did this weekend…and by “I,” I mean my wife and kids.

My wife is a civilian, meaning that she didn’t know anything about comics and comic culture until we met, so over the past 12ish years she’s learned a lot. We experimented with attending a small local convention and then stepped it up with Charlotte Mini-Con before going all-in for a three-day show like Heroes. Every single aspect of Heroes was a complete thrill for the kids and by extension for my wife and I. Artists, fans, retailers: If you’ve ever been hesitant about brining small kids to a con, this is the one!!

The scavenger hunt, the Drink-n-Draw/auction, the costume contest, the bounce-house, seeing other artists and friends and buying great and comics…it was all incredible for them. At the of each day, my daughter (7 years old) would say, “This was the most awesome day ever!!!”

What more can a guy ask for?

Here are the sketches that I did this weekend, minus 2 that I forgot to shoot. Thanks to all the owners of these sketches for the work!!

Just wanted to get these in there too...so if you scroll down, these pages will be in sequence with the post below.

Blast from the Past - Phantom #7 pencils

These are the pencils that I did for Moonstone's Phantom #7. Fun story written by Ben Raab, which gave me the opportunity to design the return of the Aviatrix villain(s) to the Phantom lore. These were all drawn at about printed comic size, then scanned and sent off.

Phantom Generations colors

I just go this from Renato Guerra...it's buried back in the November section:
Hi Pat...
I upload a little preview of colors from this issue here: http://renatoguerra.com/index.php/generations-preview/

Hope you like!

Renato - Si, me gusta! Muchas gracias!!

Phantom Preview 2 - inks

Here are the inks for the Phantom project I previewed earlier. I used Itoya pens and a Pentel brush pen for these.
