The Silver Cord

So this is my first blog post of 2015, and I have some great news to share.  A project I had the great privilege of working on is finally done and available for purchase online and in bookstores nationwide.  The Silver Cord A huge 400 plus page graphic novel about newly conscious robots in a religious war with ancient jealous angels, and a young half-breed girl who must save them all . You can learn more about the book on the main site , here Follow us on Twitter here , and like us on Facebook here .  You can purchase a copy of the book here .  I provided digital Paintings for several of the pages in book one ( The graphic novel is broken up into 2 books )  Here are screenshots of some of the pages I colored. These pics do it no justice as the production value of this book is absolutely gorgeous. 

And here are shots of me signing autographs for the fans that backed the Kickstarter campaign, along with some shots of the individual doodles I did for each page I signed. About 250 unique doodles was my way of saying thanks to the fans for being so awesome. 

I would like to Thank Kevin Kelly and Steve Masseroni for the opportunity to be a part of such a great adventure. Here is a link to Kevin's site and a link to Steve's site. A huge shout out to Industrial Lights and Magic Art Director Alex Jaeger, it was an honor to be part of a project that has your name attached.  You can check out Alex's blog here , and Like his facebook art page here . And last but not least, to my brother from another mother, Tippet Studio Concept Artist Gus Dizon, thanks for all of the great support, advice, mentoring, and kick ass Photoshop brushes :)  Gus has a passion for taking amazing photos. Check out his photography site here .  Congrats to all of the other creatives involved, you guys all rock. Thanks for stopping by, and don't forget to order a copy of The Silver Cord, available now on Amazon. Enjoy !!!!!

Silver Cord Villian

Here is another piece I worked on today for The silver Cord. This guy is named Ibog, he is the boss if you will, of the Dregs in the story. Ibog is one of the top villains in the story, and in front of him is our star, Tasi in her astral projection form. If you haven't checked out the first issue yet, you can read it for free on the site. www.silver-cord.net I was asked to do a new treatment on the Ibog character and change him up a bit from the original version. Below is my take on the character followed by the original concept by ILM VFX art director Alex Jaeger, and a page I colored with the Dregs pursuing Tasi. Pencils by Steve Masseroni. Thanks for stopping by:)
