Comic Creation Guide...

I am currently in the process of creating a guide that will instruct beginners on how to create comics and cartoon strips. The surprising part is, I have found quite a bit of support in the project. I am currently working with several cartoonists and students in order to provide a comprehensive, online guide that will allow other, aspiring artists to begin their work and get it out to the public.

Current artists participating:
N. Rackley - Amateur Cartoonist - Lakewood
David Davis - Semi-Professional Cartoonist, Professional Comic Writer - Cosmic Dash, Warped
Howard Tayler - Professional Cartoonist - Schlock Mercenary

"Student" participants:
James - Writer
Jonathan - Photographer
James Hertz - Writer, Machinima Director

David Davis is also rounding up a couple of other people to help out with some sample illustrations from among the Scienteers. The Scienteers will be sponsoring and distributing my column. We have also agreed to allow an edition of the podcast form of these columns to be distributed through the Scienteer sister site, ComicDish's weekly cartooning podcast, The Dish.

Links to specific artist pages and their comics will be added promptly.

Special Note: Cartoonists rock. I sent out the requests to use sample material, and most responded within the day.

Anyways, stay tuned for future updates!

Cheers!

Lakewood and Casa Grande are now up!

I have officially uploaded my first Lakewood/Casa Grande strip. Go check it out!

The pages are still WIPs, however content does help to spiffy things up a bit.

THE CASA GRANDE WEB SITE (Lakewood in Spanish)

Enjoy!

Machinima... and Webcomics.

Well, after having been gone for a while, I have decided to come back with a bang!

Alimar and I will be working on a Machinima using the Halo 3 engine and Macromedia Flash for animation.

The name: Downhill Fast: What's in the cards?

Here's a sneak peek:

Want to see what it's all about? Stay tuned for more soon!

Also, in the works, is my new Lakewood comic strip, the rebirth of the Designation Se7en series. It will be hosted at ComicDish. A Spanish translation, known as Casa Grande, will also be hosted there.
