The Usual Suspects

Serenity Set

Here at long last is the complete roster of the Serenity magnets! They’ve changed a bit from what I posted earlier, because once I lined them all up their heads were all of differing sizes.

Back in the day I would have had to redraw them.  But in the twenty-first century I can just fix it in post production. And so if you spot any errors let me know and I can fix that in post too.

The set will be available at the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo, and after that, on my Etsy store.  Assuming any are left!

Serenity Two!

Here’s the second set of Serenity magnets–just one more set of four to go!

All twelve will be ready for the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo, April 27-29 at the Calgary Stampede Roundup Centre. Come find me at table H05 in Artist Alley, right along with Lisa, Shonna and Kyle!

The Expo’s achieved the amazing feat of reuniting Gargoyles voice actors Marina Sirtis, Brent Spiner, Jonathan Frakes, Michael Dorn, and LeVar Burton, so naturally I’ll be doing a Gargoyles print.  There are also several other actors from some other show that escapes me at this point. I guess it was fairly popular too.

Serenity Now!

Now that the Doctor Who set is finished–and it is finished so no begging!–it’s time to keep moving along on the Firefly set.

The stumbling block I ran into before involved drawing Summer Glau in such a way that she didn’t look like a creepier, robotic Christina Ricci. Untruthfully, in other words; fictionally. The solution that presented itself was to have my lovely wife draw River. And, given that, I ought to have her draw the other women of Firefly too! So she did: Inara and Zoe thus far, River still to come.

–Except for Kaylee. I feel I managed to draw Kaylee on my own. You may not agree.

This week I received the Christmas present that all of you bought me: my brand new 15″ high-res matte-screen quad-core i7 frickin-metal MacBook Pro. Yes, I now finally have a computer that has a graphics card in it! That’s probably pretty necessary for what I do.

So since magnets bought me a computer, I’d better make more magnets! It’s not going to be more Doctor Who ones. I had a false start on the Firefly magnets (River gave me trouble) but this time I’m going to persevere!

If you’re in Missoula, Montana at the end of May, I’ll see you at MisCon 26! George R. R. Martin will be there.

Some of my magnets adorning a monitor stand! Thanks for the photo, Christine!

Funnily enough, I also made the lanyards hanging off the base of the stand. Whoever’s monitor this is, I owns them.
