I've been continuing my online riding of the publishers of Casper the Friendly Ghost, in a prolonged effort to do work for them...although at this point...I've really been drifting closer and closer into it just being shitposting.
WHICH...I will point out again, still helps them. Since my shitposting and people who follow me to see such, far and vastly outnumber any attention they get on their own.
Anyhooo...I finished a commission and posted it, which I will show you AFTER...I introduce you to a couple friends of mine who have come to Steemit
First is https://steemit.com/@burgcomics Who I met a few years back at a comicon in...Missouri? ( I think)
He had a vendor booth, I was a guest...I drew him a picture of Cthulhu and the rest is history. He does comic book reviews and gives suggestions of what to ask your comic book store to order for you from the big catalogue! Every comic book published in the U.S.A. ( or at least 99% of them) are ALL in one great big catalogue each month. That's usually several hundred choices...so he's providing quite a service by pointing out a few gems.
Next is The https://steemit.com/@the.skrauss He's a podcaster, artist, radio host, actor....I'm probably forgetting a few other things...the point is, he's good at a lot of stuff and worth keeping any eye on.
and the newest of my friends to get on steem is https://steemit.com/@sewgeekgirl she draws stuff, she sews stuff, she hates things...not sure what she'll do more of here, we'll all find out together.
OKAY....enough helping other people, here's the first Casper commission all completed and pretty. It's about 60/40 of my usual style and the Harvey Comics style and of course in an actual Casper comic he would not be pushing a child into a moving car BUT this was the request...and I...am perfectly willing to take direction.
It's been awhile since I had a reason to use my adjustable curve ruler. Harvey backgrounds had a lot of curved and rounded lines, for the sake of whimsy, that would actually be straight ( in this instance the sidewalk edges, fence top and bottom ). The curved ruler helps keeping those in semi proper perspective ( I'll show you sometime how to do it sometime)
Despite my posting of this on FB getting more likes in one day that their entire page got in two weeks, The publisher continues to resist bringing me on...my patience is waning and my natural tenancy to seek out a ...oh..."different" resolution is increasing
See you in a day or two with more!
