"LOVELY TROLL"

My younger brother Kyler, proposed doing a quick character design assignment together. His topic of choice...."LOVELY TROLL" Heres mine. You can check out an amazing one by Kyler at his Blog too!!!

Prep and Landing!!!

The trailer is up for Prep and Landing! This is an original short film(tv special) made right here within the creative walls of Walt Disney Animation Studios. I was lucky enough to have worked on this jolly Christmas special directed by Kevin Deters and Stevie Wermers(the talented pair that did our recent Goofy Short.) I'm a big Christmas guy, so naturally I really enjoyed working on this film. The air date is soon to be released so keep checking back here or ABC's website for details. Maybe someday I can post up a few of my story sketches from it too, we'll see. But for now, check out the trailer to the right and get Prep'd and ready for Wayne and Lanny (the Christmas Elves) this Christmas!!!!

To all those that bought a copy of "Torch Tiger" I want to say a very big thanks!!!! I hope you enjoy it!!!! And to all those who have not picked up your copy... there are only 2 more days left at the Comic Con. Booth 2302!!!! Get them while there HOT!!!!

I'm going to the Comic Con on Thursday now. So hope to see you there! I can't wait! I'll be at the booth 2302 with the rest of the Torch Crew. Come by and get a special collectors pin with your book.

Here is a sample of the first page from my story.

TORCH TIGER IS COMPLETE!!!!

"WHAT IS TORCH TIGER" Comic Con Exclusive Comic is COMPLETE!!!! Alright we got just 2 weeks until Comic Con, San Diego. This year is going to be amazing! The book turned out better than I could have imagined. It's a bit thicker than last years "Who is Rocket Johnson." The stories and artwork are so inspiring. I was honored to be able to join these amazingly talented Story artists and Directors and work on something so unique and fun.

I hope you all stop by our booth #2302 and say hello! A bunch of the fine folks who made the book will be hanging out doing book signings all weekend long. I'll probably be there on friday the 24th. Stay tuned for more details. Look for our banner at the Con, you can't miss it, it has a smattering of some of the amazing artwork in the book. A word of advice...THIS IS A VERY LIMITED RUN!!! ARRIVE EARLY....THEY SOLD OUT LAST YEAR!!!! Get ready!!!

Part 2: Europe Trip 2009

More Salzburg, Austria

More Austrian Alps....

This house had a giant mural of a sword wielding viking

on a sled pulled by huge polar bears....AWESOME!

We took a gondola up the mountain-side heading for the Eagles Nest....Hitler's vacation home and bunkers.

Inside the Ice Caves

ITALY

Venice was our first stop, what a beautiful city...wow.

I thought I'd snag this photo of this guy taking a photo of his wife.

He held that pose for a really long time. She seems to be enjoying it. What a great character moment...this is why vacation is valuable...to experience life and then draw it when we get back to work.

part 3....ROME, FLORENCE, ITALIAN RIVIERA
