The New England Webcomics Weekend, the world’s premiere webcomics event, is drawing near. If you have a favorite webcomic creator, they will almost certainly be there. Incidentally, I am a guest there as well. This is a fancy gig, let me tell you. This isn’t your regular hustle and bustle comic convention, it’s a very sane and accessible way to meet creators and get really great deals on personalize and exclusive merchandise. I’ll be doing all sorts of drawings and such (dinosaurs included) for everyone, as well as some other fun stuff. Check out the list of other guests, too!
Tickets will sell out very soon, so I suggest jumping on this opportunity as soon as possible. It’s going to be the best comics event of the year, and I hope to see you there!
The results of the DC Reenactment Contest are here! There were so many great entries! There’s one First Place, two Second Places, and three Third Places. I’ve also included some honorable mentions of additionally awesome reenactments. And the winners are…
Hope you like the new page! If you’ve ever wondered how I make these, I’ve just posted a step-by-step walkthrough of my comic-drawing process over on my art blog!
As it’s never really updated, I’m replacing the “gallery” page with a new art blog! This is updated frequently with process updates of the comic, as well as some articles I’ve written on comic theory in general. Some posts so far include the body language of DC characters and the importance of environment design. I hope you like it!
The old gallery can still be found here, and on the right column of all the site pages.
That’s right! The Excessively Authentic Dresden Codak 2010 Sketchbook is now available in the store! It contains trade secrets, behind-the-scenes processes of the comic, and all of my daily drawings and speed paintings of the past year! You’ll wonder how you ever lived without one. If you have $8, you can get one right now!
Hey look, it’s another page of Dark Science! This one would have been up sooner, but I had to finish the designs for a bunch of characters and places for the rest of the story (characters and places, mind you, that have yet to appear)!
I’ve revamped the store page, and now you can download all the donation wallpapers in one convenient place. Check it out!
Also, remember the deadline for the DC Reenactment Contest is July 23rd! If you want a chance at a free Hob book and other goodies, hop to it!
Howdy folks! The next page of Dark Science will be up in a couple days, but until then I’ve restructured the Dresden Codak Store a little bit, and have included all the donation wallpapers in one place for the first time! Also, the first two pages of Dark Science are available as prints!
Finances have been a bit tight this summer, so if you enjoy the comic and you’ve got as little as fifty cents to spare, it would be hugely appreciated. A little goes a long way in keeping this nutty endeavor going.
So listen up, chickens, we’re going to have us here another contest. I am offering some exclusive prizes. What do you need to do?
The Challenge: A live-action reenactment of a Dresden Codak comic page/panel/story with real people, puppets and/or models, using either photography or video.
This doesn’t have to be elaborate or high-production value. Points awarded to creativity and ingenuity. (Ridiculous costumes are a plus)
* First Prize - 2nd Edition Hand-bound Hob Book, 3 Dresden Codak 2010 sketchbooks, all personally illustrated!
* Second Prize - 2 DC 2010 Sketchbooks, personally illustrated
* Third Prize - 1 DC 2010 Sketchbook, personally illustrated
