NARUTO SKETCH

Im just gettin back into the regular schedule from last weeks comic show Ive been drawin random character to put in my portfolio. Naruto is abit new to me ! but ive been watching the later episodes. i wanted to draw him in my take.

WIZARD WORLD OVA.....

Well the comic show is over! (yahooo!!) Took place over at the Stephenson center over in rosemont il area! This year didnt seem like a huge show. I didnt see as much traffic as i usually see from past cons. Maybe cause its too close to San diego. Well i feel relief that the show is over! Stayin up late and running around headless can really be a bother.(try it sometime!) I think the show went well! i did get to draw character sketchs for those who asked. (thank you all who ask!:)) The products that was presented did well like the SOFA KINGDOM COMICS, POSTERS, PINS . The variant Zombie comic sold. I was really happy about that. The flip book Outcast/ Hellriders book did so/so. On my end of presenting it to customers. I showed it as something for more mature audience. I got present my first sketchbook this conventions as well! I have to give a big thanks to Davids brother in law for buying the sketch book. I felt really greatful for him pickin it up! i owe that guy big!! That whole weekend eating habbits suck big time. I did have my sister adela come to the show and bring me fresh fruits and water to clean out my system from the nasty mc donalds in take! yuck!!! :( ive been detoxin for the last few days with spinach salads and fruits and water. to flush that stuff out of my system. I think mc donalds should have a warning...



On the last day of the con i woke up with the sense of depression and abit anger. I feel like this each year on the sundays of every show. I get dress and go to the convention in as a group effort. Not blaming nobody for mistakes. But blame my own. Im switching gears for the next show to just push my own product and my own samples. Im still determine to make SOFA KINGDOM a house hold name. Its just i have to focus me.
Its always great to be part of something. But if your the only idiot puttin a major precentage in the group. And to those who arent doing nothing but sittin and blamin there problems on you ! well then theres something wrong. I think im ready to just move on with stuff. Not getting younger. Can't be tryin to help out everybody.



Well heres to next show. with new ideas! Samples to pass around. ohh and my own table tooo! still handsome! Just more for me to go around! ;)

-alero!


R.I.P Mike Wieringo!
You where a big influnces with your work in the field of animation style comics and for the two time i did meet you! Youve been kind to talk to me and sketch a spidey pix for me as well!

SOFA'S COMING......

Its coming! Im suffring the seven stages of Comic FEVER. Im Hyped, EXCITED, PARANOID, HUNGRY, HORNY then SLEEPY THEN HUNGRY AGAIN ! :) But serious! the pages are coming out smoothly! I feel i topped myself from the previous SOFA KINGOM comics and strips that where put out. I love what i created. Im just likin the new material. I know in future comic shows im goin to be back on this blogger rambbling how i did something new and cool. The pages above im showin on this blog are some of the final page for the comic released for the Chicago show. These are just a few samples of whats going to be in the 24 page. Again the process of making the SOFA KINGDOM comic book pose to the strips is. Instead of reef (co-creator) Writing out the pages. Ive just been drawin out the drawin first then he come in with something or we play out a page timing for dialouge. Its fun! Ive learned alot how to tell a story with out the words for the picture. This summer comic book is titled SOFA KINGDOM "DOGS DAY SUMMER" . (thank reef!) Its goin to have Two covers! One regular cover and a varaint ZOMBIE cover. Its goin to kick ass!! you seeee!! im just speakin on my behalf ! -alero!

T-PARTY

Its beeeeeeen to long from up dating my blog! i know i suck!! ive been getting ready for the comic show with two SOFA KINGDOM books. One is a whole year of comic strips with commentary from both myself and co creator. The other SOfa kingdom book title SUMMER DOG DAYS. Im almost done with the illustration of the ink. 2 pages i swear!!
In the mean time of the comic and creator own creation of SUNDOWN ROULETT and comic samples. Ive just created a flyer for a friends TATTOO PARTY. art shown above. There wasnt much thought to creating this flyer. I had fun and i made sure i left room for space for the text above and the side of the image for information concering the party. Im still learning the tricks for page layout.. well back to the comics. I think i'll have the pages done for printing this weekend.

werewolfs and bears....ohh my!!

Soooooooo!!! im still working putting three books for the summer comic show here in Chicago! i did this piece for my writer turn artist up-coming comic. Im dont no if he has a title. But the comic is going to be made up of a 5 page pencil preview. I played off his five pages to come up with this picture for a cover. It was a cool exercise for my comicstyle. Lately ive been in my SOFA KINGDOM STYLE and graphic design. It came out cool! maybe yeah, maybe not cover! its still cool tho-
