After a long dry spell of small odd jobs, work is pouring in by the bucketful. Besides my creator-owned projects, I’m neck deep in my Marvel Comics work. Unfortunately, I can’t talk or show you, fans, any of it until Marvel officially announces it. But I can assure you that it’s a doozy.
Oh, my next comic convention will be a San Diego Comicon. With my heavy workload, I haven’t had the time to make a new sketchbook. (I’m shooting for Baltimore Comicon in September to release my new sketchbook.) However I’ll have several sketch covers for sale and may take a commission or two. Also, Brandon Peterson and I will have our annual art print for sale at my booth. (We haven’t figured out what the new art print will be of just yet.)
Picture of the Day: This is the final cover to the Phantom Eagle: Where Monsters Dwell. It’s only a partial image since I don’t want to ruin the surprise. I’ll post the final colored image when Marvel release it.

Spectrum Fantastic Art Live – Report

First of all big thanks to John Fleskes, Arnie and Cathy Fenner for putting another stellar show this year. From start the finish, it was a blast.
I came in a bit late into Kansas City on Friday due to mechanical problems on the plane I was on. But once I got on the convention center, it was smooth sailing.
FRIDAY was short and sweet. I quickly set up and got to meet my fans and friends. I was very fortunate to sit at the Flesk Publications booth with top notch talents – Gary Gianni, Mark Schultz, Daren Bader, Bill Carman, Brom, Aaron Lopresti, Craig Elliott, Karla Ortiz, Jim and Ruth Keegan, Ian McCaig and Steve “The Dude” Rude. Now the only down side of sitting at the Flesk booth was that everyone was over 6 feet tall. I felt like Tyrion Lannister throughout the show sitting side-by-side with these literal giants of the field. We capped the wonderful evening with a nice BBQ dinner at Jack Stax restaurant. (My cholesterol level went through the roof that night.)
SATURDAY was a blur. I was recovering from my jet lag and the insanely delicious BBQ dinner. I did Flesk Publications panel where we announced our current and future projects at Flesk Publications. (Flesk is publishing “World of Payne” by me Tom Sniegoski when I finish my Marvel project.) John Fleskes moderated the fun and lively panel. (Bill Carman may look like a Shaolin monk but he’s one of the funniest man in Idaho.) Back at the table, I was able to do a inked King Kong drawing for a long time fan, Aaron.
The prestigious Spectrum Awards ceremony was held that evening in a nearby theater where the Fenners and Fleskes revealed the new Spectrum award statue, the Muse. The new award statue was exquisitely sculpted by the super talented duo, Colin and Kristine Poole. You can see the awesome award statue here:
Congrats to all the winners.
SUNDAY started with a bang for me. I overslept and had to rush over to my panel, Work for Hire vs Creator Owned Properties. I was joined on stage by Gary Gianni, Mark Schultz and Aaron Lopresti, and moderated by the lovely Shena Wolf. Needless to say, I was the shortest one on stage. The panel discussions ranged from working on other companies properties (Yes, if the money is right) to doing a creator owned project (make sure you’re financially sound). At the end the conversation turned to which movie was better – Brave, Tangled or Frozen. (The correct answer was Tangled, hands down.)
All in all, Spectrum Fantastic Art Live is one of most laid back, unique and friendliest shows in the country. And I can wait to do it again next year.
