Follow me….

It’s alright… look down… i wanna show you something….!

You see all this above me?

There was SO much to do before i went to NYComiCon that i think i aged at least a decade in days. Something liked being locked in the Fortress of Solitude and coming out a whole lot more funky than i went in. And a lot more on the hairy side. I detest looking and feeling like a Yeti.

And i’m six foot nine. SO that’s not necessarily a stretch.

So.. in a previous post, i talked about working with Verge Entertainment. My boy Joe Illidge… whom i’ve known since High School, by the way….when we ALL had more hair….
…. gave me a call wanting me to help him and the gang get some artists to help the Verge put together the second installment of their webisodes called Ayre Force.

Featuring Calvin Ayre. CEO of BoDog.

Of which i’ve learned has just retired his commission of said comglomerate.

Guess the Bear bile scandal via his nemesis Janus Winter was too much for him to bear…

heh.. bear….

So anywho… they wanted some info on artists to do the Ayre Force Webisodes and i, like i didn’t have enough on my plate, said that i would take on the job if they really needed the art that badly. So…

As i cried butt-naked, fetal-positioned and sucking my thumb in my favorite stress corner of my apartment…

I helped out.

Mind you…. and don’t tell anyone this…

I REALLY HAD FUN!

Was still butt-naked and crying…

but it was COOL.

i hadn’t really done any real animation in-betweens since S.V.A.

And THAT was some time ago. I went to S.V.A. for animation and painting/illustration.

So it was nice to do something different than the ….eurmm.

okay.. forget that sentence.

It waa nice to do something different.

heh.

Now.. i guess you would like to SEE some of the stuff i did above actually move. Gotcha.

It’s really simplistic pencils and inks on many scenes and i did like 2/3rds of the work.

Milo Stone was the brother engorged in the After Effects.

If we had time, i would have liked to do more so that it would have come out smoother.

The excuse of every artist everywhere on the planet.

Here’s the first vid….
Glad you liked it!!

and now that you have an IDEA what the premise is… here’s the second installment that all that work led to….

enjoy.

what?

No. I don’t have popcorn, doggonit.

Just sit and watch.

I must say though… the screams are hilarious.

See anythang in purple? Click that thang!!

MY PEOPLE!! Welcome to the opening of my blog… FINALLY!!! I’ve had this darn computer for 3 some odd years and you would think that with all the time i spent on it, i would have had this thing up and running.
Well, it’s finally up and i guess i can tell you what you will be seeing here on THE CHRISCROSSER. You will see artwork, some phlosophy through my eyes, my business intentions and some blurbs on future projects. Among other things. But mostly, just to show people who’ve believed and had invested in my art for years what i’ve been up to and what i’ll be producing in the next coming months and years. And as i continue to learn new things… like actually making this blog….(sheesh, it took forever), i will be keeping you up to date on what i get myself mixed into. And hopefully that statement won’t come back to bite me in the pooper.

I will be posting some art on here soon, but in the meantime, as i’m getting ready for NY Comicon, i’ll be busy trying to get my deadlines done on the last three books of the Big City Comics project called TAINTED… which involves their major characters ANT, TOTEM, AND TEMPEST.

Right now, i’m doing three pages that are kicking my behahnd.

I’ll post pics of the Con here also.

So in the meantime, as i link this to places that will actually get you to read this… please subscribe to my blog and post this to your Google Reader or your own blog.

I’m sure you will enjoy what’s coming.

Tah for now.
