Issue #2


Hey Werewhale fans,

It's been quite some time since we've posted art around here. Truth is, after the mad push to get the comic done and ready for comic-con, we attended to other parts of our art lives.

But have no fear, we've been tossing ideas back and forth for the next issue and we're in the process of trying to nail some stuff down. At this point in time, I'll be continuing the werewhale story into issue #2, while Chris, Jon and Jay will probably do something entirely different. (Maybe introduce another creature or story)

For the past month, I've been busy writing a new tale. One that helps establish the story from part one. Last night, I broke out the sculptey and started modeling a new werewhale. I wanted something more human, and more fierce. My plan is to do at least a whole bust, I'd love to do the whole body. (I originally bought 4 bars of clay, and it's going to take much more than I had thought. And I need to figure out how much clay can be put in the oven, and if a wire frame can accompany it.)

Hope you like.

New Page

This goes after the cover. Originally all the text on this page, was going to be on the cover..but I extended it. So now there will be a couple of new pages at the very beginning.

Jason May tackles the Were Whale.

Chris was kind enough to invite me to submit a story for the legendary tale of the Werewhale. Sure, many tales have been told, but no one is really sure truth behind this mystical creature. In my very short sequence you will here a number of these rumors and legends, but is any of it true?

Here are a couple roughs I'm tooling.




Chapter Cover Page

Here's my cover page

Page 6

Finally got the Night Time color palette that I was aiming for. Now I can start flying thru the other pages. Oh...and Panel 2 is just a filler until I paint a more interesting face. I really just wanted to get down the colors quickly and see if it worked or not.

New Page

Page 3 of my story. I think I've got the night scene colored the way I want it - finally. Took a couple of different tries.

ps: Ya know, I think turning all these page into rgb jpegs are lightening them up some...cuz this one was definitely darker in some areas Photoshop.

A Fishing Tale

So I'm starting the fishing side of my chapter. I'm stilling having issues with the first page. I've probably painted it over 11 times now. I think at this point I'll save it for last. Here's page 2. The 2 pages are going to be in this color range, then it turns over to night.
