Firstly, thank you all for all the well-wishes and happy birthdays.  It's all greatly appreciated, even if i can't thank each and everyone of you personally.

WHERE'S THE ART?!?!

Well, i haven't been posting a lot here due to time constraints and lack of time to properly prep art to look "completed" enough to be on here.  Most of my postings have been to my Tumblr (lordsantiagoaz) or Instagram.  This is mostly for the ease of "snap pic and post" feature built into each app.

i do plan on sharing some of the fan art i've done here eventually, but since the majority of my time is devoted to my original projects (Dark Dank and Dreary comic book and others) i just find i don't have the time or the inclination to do more than a quick sketch of fan art.

There will be more to see in the time to come and i appreciate all the favorites and watches i've been getting.  Hopefully some of my best stuff is still to come!

Thanks everyone!

Greetings everyone!

Yes, i am still around and drawing artwork though i haven't been sharing it as much on here as i've done so in the past.

Why?  Easy, for the past 6-8 months i've been writing, editing, drawing, inking, lettering, and finalizing my very own comic book.  it's been a labor of love for the past 3 years and being so close to the end is a wonderful feeling.  i'll be debuting Dark, Dank, and Dreary #1 at Phoenix Comic-Con 2015, May 28th-30th along with prints of my characters being cheeky or just downright scary.

That being said, I'll be open for private commissions beginning May 20th.  Private message me if interested.  I'll be answering commission requests then.

My Pricing

• $30 full color 8.5" x 11"
• $45 full color 9" x 12"
• $60 full color 11" x 14" or Comic Book Sketch Cover (+plus cost of comic book if its over $5, most aren't however)
• $75 full color 11" x 17" This is a standard size comic book print size, typically found in comic book conventions.
• a simple background may be included, but anything complicated may rate an additional charge.
• all commissions are sent digitally, both high resolution print size as well as a web-friendly image. Original artwork can be sent through regular postal mail at an additional $6 flat shipping fee. International rates vary.

More art will be coming.  Stay tuned!

Hey everyone!  I'll be attending Phoenix ComiCon 2014 for the upcoming weekend.  I'll be featuring all my newest artwork for my comic book as well as my newest collection of prints and plenty of the old ones too.  Older prints will be retired to make way for next years debut of my very own comic book created by yours truly!

I'll only have a table for Friday, June 6th so come on by, check out my new stuff, chit chat and all the other good things that only happen at comic cons.  Commissions are available, as well as quick sketches for any and all ages. 

It definitely been awhile since i've written a journal of note.  Things have been very busy for me in real life, raising an almost 3 year old girl is a handful but i wouldn't give that up for the world.

of the good things that have finally been put into the grind has been my very own comic book.  i've been working off and on on it for close to 4 years now, realizing that it just needs to be told not "perfect."  i'll be sharing some of the pages later, though i am planning to get it in print for Phoenix Comic Con 2015.  Luckily, i scored some table time to show off stuff at Phoenix Comic Con 2014, so there's always fun to have this year too.

also, an professional inking opportunity has presented itself to me and i'd be a fool not to go for it.  In the meantime though, i'm opening myself up for a few commissions for the next month for anyone wanting a quick piece.  If interested, please feel free to send me a note.  i have a few blank comic book sketch covers if anyone is interested in one of those.

Thanks again for watching!

wow...its been a long time since i wrote one of these...bad habits, i guess.

any how, the real reason for this journal is about my sketch series Princess Fan Service found here: Princess Fan Service, Princess Fan Service 2nd Take, and Princess Fan Service 3

kinda neat, aren't they?

wanna own one?  or perhaps two?

for a holiday special, i'm offering any of these on a first come, first serve basis for $30 each, personalized to whomever you want and signed.  oh, and free shipping too.

interested?  send me a note here and i'll get back to whomever is interested.

thanks!
