UPDATING AGAIN...
Well, it has been a long while since I updated my blog, I want to try and keep my blog up to date at least once a week, but sometimes I get so busy with life, kids, school and trying to find the time to ink that my blog is usually the last thing on my mind...but alot of times, I can usually be found wandering around deviantART or checking out a Inker's website.
What have I been up to lately you ask...just the everyday normal things in life spending time with the kids, going to work, doing school work (which I should be doing instead of updating my blog), spending time with my lovely girlfriend and inking as well as making plans for NC Comicon in Mooresville, NC on November 13-14, 2010...but before then I will be going to Big Apple Con in New York from October 1-3 as a spectator taking in the sites and sounds.
And with that being said, here are some pieces I have inked as of late...enjoy!
DESCRIPTION FOR THE FOLLOWING INKED PIECES OF WORK -
1 - The Zombieland piece was originally pencilled by Dave Faught and inked by Michael W. Kellar (ME)

My 24 Hour Comics Day...RECAP!!!
Here is a recap of my first 24 Hour Comics Day Event. What is 24 Hour Comics Day you ask...well it is where a artist is supposed to create a 24 page comic in 24 hours...for myself on the other hand being A INKER and NOT A PENCILLER, I would think that an inker should be able to ink 12 pages in 24 hours since in some cases it takes a tad bit longer to ink a page especially if you have to do any finishes or correct anatomy.
So, on Saturday October 3, 2009 several artist descended on The Comic Monstore in Salisbury, NC for 24 Hour Comics Day...these artist that decided to undertake this challenge are the guys from Vanguards of Comics (Jay Gobble, Charles Underhill & Jason Carr wearing the white t-shirts) and myself (wearing the Batman t-shirt).
My first 24 Hour Comics Day at The Comic Monstore in Salisbury, North Carolina was a blast to say the least...listen/watched ALOT of movies (300, Ghostbusters Animated, Ghostbusters, Spirit, Superbad, The Simpsons Movie, Deathproof, Japanese Anime and a few more that I can't remember), listened to alot of music (Lordi, Distrubed, Guns & Roses, Judas Priest & many more), LOTS and LOTS of laughs. The guys from Vanguard got about 20 pages done EACH, I am NOT a Penciller...I am AN Inker and I inked 12 of Charles Underhill's pages in 23 hours...I think I did pretty good for my first ever event.
Here is one of the pages I inked for Charles Underhill...this is the Ice Princess.
Shane Peoples (Store Manager) from The Comic Monstore (seen here chillin at 8:16am)
who was a really great host...kept suppling us with Bawl's energy drinks for the 24 hours and paid for all our meals (I personally ate Chicken Hibachi for lunch, Wendy's Chicken Club Combo for dinner and Jay bought all of us breakfast from McDonald's at around 6:15am)...all around I had a really great experience, I would do it again.
Here are some pictures of Charles, Jay, Jason & I at the START of the event -
Here are some pictures of Charles, Jay, Jason & I near the END of the event -
Jason & Charles still cranking out pages, me looking for 12 noon and some sleep, Jay and all his BLUE BAWL's...these guys are the greatest, I look forward to hangin' with these guys more often.
Here is an AWESOME Freddy Krueger bust that I picked up during the storewide 24 Hour Comics Day SALE!!! For $30.00, best iconic horror slasher ever...hands down!!!
