iScreen – A “CMX Suite” strip…

July 28th, 2010 | by Chris

Hey folks, you all might be wondering what the heck is going on today. You all might even be asking yourselves “where in the heck is my favorite little furry werewolf today?”. Well, Marc, Roy and the gang will return on Friday. I’ve just had a bit of a an incredibly hectic schedule as of late with a combination of a MAJOR freelance job with an even MAJOR deadline, some personal stuff going on at home (it’s all good), my men’s baseball league ending its season this week (playoffs start Thursday night!) and a pretty heavy workload going on at my day job right now.

Needless to say, there’s A LOT on my plate right now.

So, please enjoy this CMX Suite strip I did back in January right before Apple released the iPad and people weren’t sure what the iPad was going to be called. I personally liked iScreem or iSlate – but for this particular strip, I thought iScreen was funnier.

I hope you all agree as well.

And even though there isn’t a new Capes & Babes strip up here today, there IS a new “CMX Suite” strip up on the Community MX Home page today (just as it is EVERY Wednesday) – I forgot to add “CMX Suite” to my list of obligations in the paragraph above…

Have a happy hump Wednesday, ya’ll!

-Chris

Been hard at work creating sketch cards for RavenCon (April 9-11) and Pittsburgh ComicCon (April 23 – 25th). Here are some of those ones I’ve worked on so far – as usual, click on each sheet to see a bigger version:

TWO MORE SETS I JUST ADDED:

Again, any of these sketch cards can be purchased for $5.00 a piece by making a donation to my PayPal account. All the cards will be in full color – The black and white ones are being colored right now.

Pin-ups, caricatures & sketch cards…

Pin-ups and Sketch Cards

Hey everybody, with summer fast approaching, that means Convention Season is here! This year, I really want to expand my convention presence and try to get as many interested parties to learn about Capes & Babes as possible but I need YOUR help.

Why do I need your help?
Well, I need help with table purchases, travel & hotel expenses and all that good stuff it takes in order to go to these conventions.

How can you help?
Well, by purchasing original art from me in the form of pin-ups and/or sketch cards.

Here’s the deal:

- I will draw 9×12″ commissions of your favorite characters (comic book or otherwise) for the low, low price of $30.
These drawings will be full-color (with Prismacolor markers), and inked with archival inks on 2-ply bristol board. Shipping in the U.S. is included in the price. I will do either a humorous version (with dialog) or I will do a traditional “silent” pin-up without any dialog or humorous slant – whichever one you want!

- For $60 I will draw a black-and-white caricatures on 9 x 12 bristol board with archival inks.
You must provide a decent close-up of the person being caricaturized. For just $20 more, I will make the caricature full color. Shipping in the U.S. is also included in the price.

The commissions and caricatures, both will include a white mat as well. The size might change once I measure the window of the mat so both the commissions and caricatures could wind up being slightly larger that 9×12″!

- For $5 a piece, I will do full color trading cards of any character you want.
Trading cards measure 2.5×3.5″ and are inked and colored on bristol board. They will be signed and dated as well. The cards will also come with a protective sleeve. Again, shipping in the U.S. is also included in the price.

If youâ€™d like to purchase any of the above, just shoot me an email at capesnbabes (at) gmail (dot) com and Iâ€™ll send you an invoice from PayPal!

I think this is a much better way to ask for your help then simply popping a Donation button on the site… this way, you get original art AND you help me finance my convention trips this year!

Also, thanks again for reading Capes & Babes. I truly appreciate all of your support!

-Chris
