Over on </span><a href="http://themightyadam.tumblr.com/" style="text-align: start;">themightyadam.tumblr.com</a><span style="text-align: start;"> I've posted a few character designs for monsters in a hypothetical dungeon-type game. I've been starting with a bunch of quick thumbnails in my sketchbook, pushing myself firstly to vary their silhouettes. Then it's off to Photoshop with constant reminders not to be too fussy about anything. </span><br />

Here’s an idea I’ve been fiddling with for little while. I have more in my sketchbook but I figured I really needed to let it run free in the wild and move on to the next project. </div>

I am smitten with the idea of a cartoon featuring Batgirl as a modern Gotham-based Nancy Drew. It feels like a really good, cheerful fit. We all know the tune:</div>

Barbara Gordon, plucky teenage daughter of the Police Commissioner, solves mysteries and chases criminals in a home-made Bat-costume, and equipped with a detective kit of her own devising.<br />
I think it’d be nice to see what kind of rad adventures a brainy, kinda nosy, science-minded detective girl could have.<br /><br />(Edited to add a couple more which I posted on <a href="http://themightyadam.tumblr.com/">my tumblr</a>.)<br />

Above is the cover of the minicomic I had available at ECCC earlier this year. This was the story that appeared in Vol. 1 of the B.O.D. Quarterly Anthology I mentioned before. I wanted to make the print edition a little different from the version that appeared in the anthology, so I inclulded some development art, like the sketch on the back cover. (Sharp eyes will catch a pokeball, which will not appear in the story at all.) <br />
<br />
Every night, after the boys go to bed, I draw something on their lunch bags for the next school day. The last week I decided to tease them with story moments from upcoming chapters of "Little." These are those. <br />

Jon and I had a blast, and thanks to everyone who stopped by the table. More than a few people walked away with eyeballs, prints, and portraits of themselves as muppets, and I was happy to provide.<br />
<br />
I wanted to hop online with a bit of a non-art-related update. In addition to frantically trying to plan our wedding, Amber and I have also been preparing for this last weekend, when we adopted 20,000 new bees. We had had bees before, but had taken a year (or two?) off after they froze to death.(!) In fact, if we were livejournal friends, this whole post is going to look familiar. Anyhow, this time, we're determined to do it right, and build up enough bees and honey to last them through the winter. <br />
<br />
As soon as we had a nice weekend, we started building and painting a couple of hives.<br />

I spent a little time every free evening putting together frames, and this weekend we got the email saying "Your bees are here, come get 'em!" So we drove off Saturday morning to put six pounds of bees in the trunk. I keep the hives at my mom's house, about half an hour outside of Seattle. I'm just gonna dump a bunch of photos on you. Click on any one of them to see the whole set on flickr.<br />

<i>Here's the Queen in her cage. She's from another hive than these workers, so they need some time to get used to her. The end is stopped up with a stale marshmallow, and by the time they chew through it, her pheromones will have been circulated through the colony. This is like when they introduce a new raptor to the enclosure in Jurassic Park, only nobody died.</i></div><br />

So now we let the hives accept their new queens, and we check on them in 5 or 6 days. Hopefully they'll turn a bunch of sugar into wax, and she can start laying eggs!Adam Watsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06877133021301522219noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15788600.post-21917328626373774452012-03-28T09:40:00.000-07:002012-03-28T09:40:14.233-07:00Prints at ECCC!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am happy to say, though, that it's because I've been busy, not lazy. (Maybe a <i>little</i> lazy.)<br />
<br />
I'm excited to announce that, at the end of this month, I'll be at Emerald City Comicon sharing a table with my good pal Calamity Jon Morris! We'll be at table F-13 in Artist's Alley. If you're at the show, come say hello!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm going to spend the next few posts showing off some of the stuff that I'll be selling. I'm very excited, and the months leading up to it have made me more productive than I've been in a long time. </div>

Here's a picture that I'm darn proud of. I wrestled with it for a while and nearly lost the whole file at one point when PS crashed. (ALWAYS SAVE!) I figure this is some amnesiac frost giant who fell in with some fishermen. I already have prints of this which will be available at the table. They came out brilliantly! I'll have photos in an upcoming post.<br />
<br />
Stay tuned all month!<br />

Just posted a little bit ago, my contribution to <a href="http://dcfifty-too.blogspot.com/">DCfifty-too</a>'s Marvel Too project.</div>
I chose Hellcat, who is a favorite of mine, and I really had a ton of fun with this, from the Wally Wood space walls to the rubber-hose cuffs on the costume. Drawing is super fun! Go do it!<br />

The <a href="http://thebureauofdrawers.blogspot.com/">Bureau of Drawers</a> has released their long-awaited anthology collection of Bloor comics! I remember when I first met <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bloor/117869754920707">Bloor, Dictator of Uranus.</a> It was over here, at <a href="http://pappysgoldenage.blogspot.com/2010/04/number-717-rocket-to-uranus-oddball.html">Pappy's Golden Age Comics</a>, and I have to say, that first impression will never fade with time. All being blue-green and pressing buttons.

While I'm not in this B.o.D. project, I'm absolutely thrilled with the way it turned out. If you want a bag o' good comics for damned cheap, head to our <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/82046603/bloor-uranus-is-the-greatest-thing-a">Etsy store</a> and pick up a copy. Or else I will press this button!<br />

<br />Beginning August 15th, you can enjoy the latest project by my chum, <a href="http://ape-law.com/jonmorris/">Calamity Jon Morris</a>. In response to DC comics' (most recent) re-launch of all their titles, DC Fifty-Too invites 52* artists to pick a DC title, and create a comic book cover for it. It's a really cool way to see what artists could do with a title if DC said, "Take your pick, and go nuts!"
<br />
<br /><div>I'm happy to be one of the artists, and I'm really excited to show you my contribution. But until then, follow that blog! <a href="http://dcfifty-too.blogspot.com">http://dcfifty-too.blogspot.com</a>

Hi internet!
<br />
<br />
It's been really quiet over here in my corner, but I'm hoping to get better at self-promotion <i>becaaaaaaaause</i> I've got several pretty exciting projects in the works! And you best believe I'm going to promote 'em!
<br />
<br />
OK so! Here's a thing!
<br />
For the past several weeks, I've been drawing a comic strip for <a href="http://smosh.com/">Smosh.com</a> A new one posts every Tuesday, and there are now ten of them up. You can see them all here:

Here's a rabbit in a car. <br />
<br />
This guy was actually a game-piece from a floor-mat game I had as a (very little) kid, and which I only vaguely remember. (1983?) I'm pretty sure it was a racing game, or a counting game disguised as a race. It had four porcelain rabbits in cars, each a different color, and a racetrack that rolled up when you were done. My google fu has failed me, though, so if anyone knows WTF I'm on about here, let me know!Adam Watsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06877133021301522219noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15788600.post-42686754443318513612011-03-07T22:55:00.001-08:002011-03-07T23:03:23.905-08:00Kindly please follow the gentleman to the bar.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://seattledrinkndraw.blogspot.com/2011/03/eccc-drink-n-draw-success.html"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PYSqh4iEz04/TXXLuah3lAI/AAAAAAAAARE/9ZUxCLxJ7wM/s1600/DnD2011_04.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br />That's a wrap!
