Horror Sample- Sequential Portfolio Piece Dec 2012

This is a sample sequential page I did for Freelance Author Don Smith Jr. – I thought it turned out to be a pretty cool page- Don’s script is after the pencilled page- enjoy! 

  Sample 1 page—Zombie & Girl 


PANEL 1: 

WE SEE A WOMAN RUNNING. SHE HAS LONG HAIR AND SHE IS A T-SHIRT AND SKIRT. SHE HAS A TERRIFIED LOOK ON HER FACE. WE SEE SHADOWS ON THE GROUND. 

GIRL 1: Keep away! 
SFX: Uhhhhhhh! Uhhhhhhhh! 

PANEL 2:  

WE SEE A ZOMBIE. HE IS REACHING OUT. HIS FACE IS DECADE. HIS RIGHT ARM IS STRETCHED AND WE SEE BOTH FLESH AND SHIRT SLEEVE HANGING OFF. HIS LEFT ARM IS IN A CLAW LIKE POSE. 

ZOMBIE 1: Uhhhh!  
GIRL OFF PANEL 2: Noo! 

PANEL 3:  

WE SEE AN OVER THE SHOULDER SHOT OF THE GIRL AGAINST A BRICK WALL. SHE IS FRIGHTENED AND WE SEE THE BACK OF THE ZOMBIE’S HEAD. 

GIRL 1: Please! Stop! 
ZOMBIE 2: AAAAAHHHHH! 

PANEL 4: 

WE SEE THE GIRL ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE PANEL WITH HER HANDS UP TO HER FACE. THE ZOMBIE IS STRETCHED AND ABOUT TO BITE HER.  

GIRL 1: HELP ME! 
ZOMBIE 2: AAAHHHH-UUUHHHHHH!
MAN OFF PANEL 1: Get away from her!

“Grizelda” Concepts- 2011

 David and I decided on our next project “Through the Eyes of Grizelda” based on my cat running over the Vermin pages so much to get attention.   A hard core fantasy story about a cat’s point of view of things- these are the promo art and concept sketches .  Stay tuned for more news on this project as we work on it in the coming months!

 


THUNDARR!!! Demon Dogs 2011

All villains from the show THUNDARR!!!  The robot in the corner and the shark lady are the ones that really turned out well in my humble opinion.


THUNDARR!!! Lords of Light 2011

I just got the THUNDARR DVD, and as one of the greatest 80′s cartoons I was inspired to make a 2 part poster of the LORDS OF LIGHT (Good Guys) and the DEMON DOGS (Bad Guys), if you like cool 80′s stuff- then you will like this- so far it is not inked- yet!

OOKLA, ARIEL, THUNDARR– RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!


Banned Indian Chief Logo- Redux – 2011

This is my overhaul of the 1998 banned Indian Logo- I love it. for comparison, I include the original 1998 art that this was based on.  As much as the 1998 version was cool, the 2011 guy would scalp you and not look back.  I’ve already had one request to use this as a tattoo- nothing tells you success more than that!

Not having touched sequential art since 1992’s “Captain Anarchy”, the next monkey to get off my back was to do a comic, and get it published.  As of now, this hasn’t happened YET, but thanks to my creative muse- David Paul.  I think we have a long future of making great comics together.  After talking to dozens of people to work with, I found David on the old Heavy Metal online message board (now closed!) and we somehow found a way to work together, and decided to brand ourselves as UGLI STUDIOS and make comics for our favorite mag- Heavy Metal.  I wont include the awesome lettered and colored pages by David (script and lettering) and Dani Kaulakis (Digital color goddess) until we have a shot to get them in front of some publishers but I think “THE GREAT VERMIN” is on fire- and is a great setting for future adventures.  And I love the main character “Veer”- and his hands do look great!  Check out Dani, David and UGLI’s links on my friend list!
