2000 AD
Check out my new story in 2000 AD Prog 1880 – 1882. From the 2000 AD website:
THARG’S 3RILLERS // COLONY
Three episodes, one complete, self-contained story – a condensed hit of super-charged Thrill- power beamed to you directly from the Nerve Centre! Siberia, 1957. Soviet leader Joseph Stalin may be dead but his legacy of Gulag work-camps scattered across the tundra continues under his successor Nikita Khruschev. Here, the convicts struggle to survive in desperate conditions… Kek-W(w) & Vince Locke(a)

A new Sketchbook and Prints
I’ve added two prints and a sketchbook to the shop. The prints are a new smaller format, but the same amazing quality. Each print is signed, but not numbered. The larger prints are signed, limited in number and printed actual size of the original.
The sketchbook is 100 Zombies, a collection of zombie portrait sketches. The art ranges from quick expressive portraits to more detailed and gorey drawings. Every order from my website gets an original sketch on the first page.
Sometimes You Can’t Save The Drawing
Here’s a peek at my inking going wrong. It looked sloppy. I kept tinkering with it and it just got muddier. I abandoned it, no need to add the stars.
Since I liked the layout of the illustration, I scanned it into the computer and then printed it out on a new sheet of Bristol board, but in non-photo blue. I think worked out some of the details and new shading in pencil, and then went to the inks. Below is the final piece.
Upcoming Appearance on Free Comic Book Day
I’ll be at Rookies Sportcards Plus an May 4th, 2013. Come by between 10AM and 3PM for an autograph or just to say hello. I’ll be selling original art and prints. Click the link for more info Rookies Sportcards
