New Ultrasounds!

Here's another set of ultrasounds for the grandparents, family members and those keen on peering into my wife's womb. These were taken at 26 weeks (we are at 28 weeks right now). Normally people only have one ultrasound, but us lucky folks having twins get them more often. They're starting to flesh out nicely!

And I'll post some more comics soon, promise!

Return of cuddlecore

Wow, I've been knee-deep in Angora Napkin projects lately and having a ball!

First off, the Angora Napkin graphic novel is well under way. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I've loosened up and decided to just have some fun with these characters. I'm also making every effort to avoid cross-hatching ANYTHING for a change. I'll post a couple of pages from the book in a little while.

Before I started work on the book, I dug out all the old Angora Napkin binders and took another read through one of the storyboards Nick and I worked out a number of years back. I've always wanted to make this into an animated short and now it's slowly taking shape!

Here's a few snippits from "The Day the Music Died" -or- "Abracadavar". (think: 'Rocky & Bullwinkle' when you read the title).




I also want to give a big shout out to Lisa Marr for permission to use "My Chinchilla" in the short!! Lisa was part of the Vancouver Indy band cub (92-97) and other bands like Shonen Knife really inspired the creation of Angora Napkin, so it's really super cool to have some of that music in there! THANKS LISA!!!

Back to the Funnies!

Behind the Scenes note:

Once and a while these Mygrains of mine have some element of reality to them. The scene above was inspired by my dad, who always keeps candy, chocolate, peanuts and licorice under the couch and offers them to you whenever you visit.
