I would love to see you do work on The Dark Knight or Daredevil teamed up with Frank Miller! MAN, that would be the closest thing to heaven on earth! Just a thought!! I hope to see you at the comic book convention in Pittsburgh this year. Good luck in all of your endeavors.

I don’t boast very often, but lookit this! Lookit!

DC heroes lineart by George Perez with my rainbow wrangling colours all over them. :D
The man himself was kind enough to autograph this at the London Super Comic Con and seemed quite pleased with my work.
Aw man, thanks to Ian Sharman for scruffing me at the eleventh hour and waving the lines in front of my face. ‘Tis was a much appreciated ego boost. <3

A simple marker piece of Conan the Barbarian, a character I don't get to draw very often. This was another one of the pre-convention commissioned sketches done prior to my arrival at the London show last weekend. Hope you all like it as much as the fan who ordered it.

For those who do not know who the wonderful man George Perez is, he is the father of Teen Titans and basically anything DC related. He is crazy nice and a great artist. He does a lot of work for the Hero Initiative and cosplayers come help raise money for the group so thats where this is from.
