Great stuff as always. Thaony Silas and Elton Dias delivered some amazing artwork. I especially like the action shot of Comrade Hero. Mark Williams has done 3 outstanding pieces for you and I love the textures in his work.
I haven't checked Deviant Art in a while how is your Comrade Hero Project coming along?

I'm still in the process of script rewrites and have learned a valuable lesson that providing the artist reference material upfront cuts down considerably on the amount of time spent on research if you hand over a script along. Of course that increases the amount of time I spend searching for reference material (images, diagrams, documents etc.)
On the plus side I recently got involved with a new initiative in my town, Enterprise Taupo. The goal is to bring entrepreneurs and businesses together, so that ideas can be taken from concept to fruition, with businesses providing assistance, advice, knowledge, expertise and contacts to entrepreneurs. Very early stages yet, but already thanks to Enterprise Taupo I will be spending time with an Intellectual Property lawyer soon.
As the Pantene hair advertisements are wont to say - 'it won't happen overnight, but it will happen.'
Character Set One by Mark Williams.
Left to right: Comrade Hero, Four Five Two, Operations and Anderson.
@Anderson; Gerard Butler, is that you? 
Seriously though-
*CLANG*
Someone fetch me a new jaw! Stat! O_O

And I feel very sorry for your jaw.
That art by Mark Williams is just...
Mind. Blown.

A pleasure to work with. Mark was great. Professional, accommodating, and kept me informed regularly on the pieces he was working on. Definitely recommended. |

What's next. Well - Ryan Stegman is finishing off a piece of gift art that's been years in the making, and I'm currently working with artists on sample pages and networking with the folks at Enterprise Great Lake Taupo. A local Council run think-tank in my hometown that teams up folks with ideas (like me) with businesses and enterprises.
Those are some great pics, as usual for you. I think I'll be contacting Mr. Williams for Midday Chill.

That's a great idea. I see other folks have started getting commissions of their original characters from Mark Williams, so that sounds like a safe bet. |

How groovy is this? I was doing an Internet sweep on Comrade Hero and came across an article and image that storyboard artist and cartoonist Adam Van Wyk did featuring Comrade Hero. The article is dated October 22, 2011 and was featured on Adam's website Literary Sketches.
Had no idea it was out there, but it's made my weekend.
i really like the four five two piece by Mark Williams. Congrats on the new old piece by what appears to be a very distinguished artist. The article was a good read too, I enjoyed the are you a communist question.

Thanks chief. Mark Williams captured Four Five Two brilliantly. Love that piece. And I liked the article that accompanied the Adam Van Wyk's article as well. |

The Adam Van Wyk piece is epic! I love the collar piece, perhaps inspire by the Lenin art mentioned. Great to see the momentum forming in unpredictable ways!
Arc: 379017: Outbroken See all your old friends in the Outbreak Tutorial sequel!
Arc: Coming Soon: The Incarnate Shadow Shard of Fire and Ice Mender Rednem needs you!

I corrected this image a bit for you so that the inks are clean rather than streaky? is that the word? and the art board stuff is gone.
looked on the artists site...wonder why he doesn't do this as it only takes like 3 seconds

Thanks Airhead, kind of chuffed that this piece was even there. Totally unexpected. |

I haven't thought that far ahead. There's work from Ryan Stegman and a few other artists that still need to be colored. A lot of the commission sales have started already, ahead of the Holiday Season. |

nyah, just simple flats. It's closer to coloring a coloring book that colors for a picture of any sort.
