San Diegoat

As I've mentioned before, I'm exhibiting at the San Diego Comic-Con Wednesday through Sunday of this week. What I haven't mentioned is that I'll be producing goat tokens on site, in various media and for sale, cheap! Stuff like this:

So, if you're at SDCC be sure to come visit the herd in the Small Press Pavilion, around aisle 1800, at the Tammy Stellanova Comics table (O-13). I'll have non-Magic comics and t-shirts for sale too (read more about that here) and my cool pal Tammy will be selling her excellent art items as well.

And once you're done basking in my presence, be sure to take advantage of your chance to interact with the whopping 21 Magic card artists in attendance.

2 more sleeps 'til San Diego!

I dunno ... this guy's hair and fashion decisions just kind of crack me up.

In the shadow of the bug

"Unfortunately, all my test checklist cards got bent or smeared, so I shall be the final subject. I feel no fear. This is a momentous night."
— Art studio notes, final entry

I broke out the Exacto knife and spray cans to make some punk-looking Delver stencil cards:

Randos

For all you completists, here's a tour of random images I've previously posted on my Twitter but not here. Follow me!

Why, it's the Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa token I illustrated for Channel Fireball:

Speaking of Channel Fireball, when the whole team included stomach flu details in their Pro Tour Avacyn Restored tournament reports I was compelled to deliver Channel Vomitball. Sorry guys!

Mark Rosewater recently mentioned that a card with the working name "Elephurtle" had been axed by R&D. I drew this for Mark, and for the Elephurtle we never knew.

Ah, digging through old boxes of cards, always good for a laugh.

Brian David-Marshall isn't shy about his guild/color preference. Rich Hagon isn't so sure.

Here's me, pretending to be Nicol Bolas with the three most humorous objects I could grab. Idiot.

Hexproof and I Know It

Certainly I self-identify as a cartoonist most of all, but this evening the spirit moved me to assume the form of a parody rapper. Armed with nothing more than a laptop and Audacity (the audio editing program but, yes, also the personality trait) I descended to the Loothouse's acoustically suboptimal garage to record this track. Forgive me, or maybe don't.

Next update will be a drawing.

So happy together

I did the whole Avacyn Restored prerelease thing this past weekend. Delightful discovery of unanticipated interaction. Dopey blunders due to reading failure. Helvault cracking. All of it. Whenever a new set hits I keep my whiskers on swivel to detect the greatest token needs. And the people cried out, "Wait, which guys is she soulbonded to?" Such anguish. Let me soothe.

Cute couple, eh? Here's a handy high-resolution PDF if you wanna lock up your own BFFs.

Anyway, yeah, prerlease was fun. I Nephalia Smuggled my Timberland Guide many times. And at the end of the rounds we opened the Helvault and I got to meet my own, new BFF: Oversized Griselbrand.
