STUDIOBLINKTWICE, new stuff (hopefully!) weekly!

[Lorenzo]

Well, I thought I had better come in here and let you guys know what's going on, as there's been a somewhat cavernous delay in the ole' Blink posting of late. The news is, there's too much news! Between moving studios, new projects, special projects and general MOON! goodness, I've not been able to get the time to sit down and 'puter it, and for that you gotta' accept my apologies. Stick around though, folks, 'cos there's some BIG stuff coming! To keep you going, and to get you buzzing for what's on the way, here's a little teaser for a new comics project I've recently been employed to work on, which hopefully fans of a certain animation studio will get very excited about! Proper announcement on it's way, folks!

Lorenzo "Smile and wave, boys, smile and wave…" Etheringtino!

So, time to get back on that ole' forum posting horse and ride, ride, ride...as they say. Ha-HAAA! Here's a not-so-little chap who plays a rather dramatic role in the main issue 1 chase scene. Ooooh...clowny.

Next up, exciting news, folks, the Indie Spinner Rack anthology, entitled "Awesome" is now available to pre-order, so I thought I'd better come in here and tell you about it, and at the same time post a little pencils-only teaser. Those of you who are long-time Blinkers may well remember the concepts I posted for this story a while back in "burger wrapper" themed stlyees. GO HERE for a preview of each and every story by all the talented folk involved, as well as links to where you can order it and info on the launch party etc. Go get soooome!

Holy monkey-chow! Lots of news today…

I can now announce that I am now an official Dreamworks artist for their Dreamworks Tales comic! When I was approached by Titan to work on the title back in May, I was at first hesitant, not because I didn’t want to get involved in the awesome world of DW, but because I was concerned it would eat into my MOON! work time. My Ed was totally sympathetic to my schedule though, and together we came up with a workload which suited us both. I was offered the choice of which property I wanted to work on (Shrek, Over the Hedge, etc) and eventually we decided that Madagascar was the most suited to my style in terms of both look and humour. So, I’ve got a couple of stories already drawn, the first of which will be in issue #4 on sale in a month or so here in the UK, I think, but I’ll be able to confirm that properly in a few weeks. Having gone through the movie about 20 times since getting on board, I gotta say, I’ve just come to love it’s oddball humour more and more, there is some absolutely fantastic character performances, and the whole thing has such a wonderful Tex Avery chaotic feel to it – basically, right up Lorenzo’s street! Ha-zaa! Trust me when I say, I’m gonna push the boat waaaaaay out for this one, folks, and I’ll be showing you more as soon as I can! Enjoy!

So, I finally got the chance to come up with a proper page design for laying out the build shots of the Kustom I'm building with my Pa. Last time you saw the Amazonia, we were half way through getting the Dagmars and teeth in place. Well, here it is so far – the nose is now shaved, and eight of the ten teeth are in place, with two more to go in. The entire grille surround will be getting a much smoother look, once I’ve sculpted it all out, updates as they happen, folks, enjoy!

Along with all sorts of new stuff on the way, I'm buzzed to announce that my story of wandering romance in the big city is set to return this autumn. Stay tuned, folks, gonna take this one all over the place...

Finally, just a little experiment here, thought it would be fun to scribble up a pic of Serenity from MOON! in a different style, just for kicks. Hope you guys dig!

Lorenzo!

[Lorenzo]

So, here’s a quick concept of Teron from MOON! as RACE MADLY, his “acclaimed” on-screen persona. Regular Blinkers will spot that this is Collect-a-Sketch number 10, BEFORE we’ve had Collect-a-Sketch number 9! Has the world gone MAD?!!! Well, no, it’s just number 9 is taking a little while to clean, but it’s on it’s way, peeps!

Next up, a pic of a curly-haired cutie in a yellow dress because…well, do I need a reason to draw curly-haired cuties in yellow dresses?! Haha! No, exactly!

More in Neu-Yoik-Minnut, as my Manhattan brethren would say!

Keep scribblin’, folks!

Lorenzo!

[Lorenzo]

So…happy Monday morning, fellow Blinkers! The week stretches out ahead of us like a hiiiiighway of possibilities, and I hope you’re all gonna’ get some good scribbling done over the coming days!

First post today is a concept shot of Serenity in the cockpit of a mystery machine from Season 1 issue 2 of MOON! Work those levers, grrrrrl!

Next up, a little web flyer to let you know that the latest instalment of my brother’s fantastic column over at Comic World News is up. With the tragic loss last month of a comic book great, he decided to put on hold the previously advertised theme for this chapter, and instead has written about Mike and his wonderful Tellos series. Robin asked me to come up with a Tellos-themed illo to advertise the column, and of course I obliged as best I could. Go read it HERE folks…

More in but a moment!

Lorenzo!

First up, another little teaser for the soon to be released Awesome anthology from Indie Spinner Rack…

Next, those regular Blinkers out there will remember that in the past I've produced a few tutorials on colouring and suchlike. While they were useful to a degree, colouring is far from being my strongest skill as an artist, and besides, they essentially taught techniques which can be found better explained elsewhere on the web. However, this thread was never meant to just be about show and tell, I always envisioned it as a place where you can come to hopefully get a new idea or two to take into your own work, and maybe even a little bit of inspiration/motivation to keep you at the drawing board when the TV/Pub/Hot Fox Next Door* are tempting you away from your creative endeavours. So, without further ado, I'd like to announce the forthcoming School of Blink, which I will run right here in the Thread, and which will hopefully become a library of tutorials and discussions on imagination, creativity and invention within the realm of comics creation, storytelling and concept art. I hope it will be of interest to some of you, and for those guys who already know it all, well, there'll be some pretty pictures! Whoip!

Lorenzo!

*There is absolutely NO garuntee that these tutorials will be more entertaining than an evening with that cutie next door.






Smultz alert! Turn back if you don't like luuuuurve!

So, I just got back from a great little scoot around Spain with my girl, and I wanted to come in and post this piccie I did for her. My amazing Esty has recently had to deal with a ton of very difficult stuff, things that most of us would find it hard to cope with at the best of times, and she has shown such strength of character and amazing resourcefulness, I'm just blown away by her. Unfortunately, it's taken it's toll on her sleeping, and my poor girl has had a lot of restless nights, so I wanted to do this pic to encourage her to think of all the good, fluffy stuff in life when she's snoozing next to me. I love you baby, you're just the most perfect girl in the world!

Lorenzo!

P.S. The Bear with the glasses is meant to be me, 'cos that's how it feels to be held by my girl!

[Lorenzo]

Hmmm…lots of things today, let’s get on with ‘em, eh? First up, issue 4 of DreamWorks Tales is now on the newsstands here in the UK, and I thought I’d show you a little peek at the 6-pager Madagascar story I drew for it. Pencils, inks and colours by me, script and lettering by John Green and Jimmy Betancourt/Comicraft respectively. Go get a copy!

Next up, for those pencil heads among you, the line work from the Madagascar teaser pic I posted earlier in September.

Moving on, we have another teaser for the forth-coming return of One Night in the City. I knocked this one up in Biro while waiting for a load of my pages to render on our dusty ole’ G3s here in castle blink. And they say slow processors are a bad thing!

Finally, a lil’ web flyer to announce that we’ll be bringing all our Blinky bells and whistles to two rather fantastic conventions here in the UK this October, so if you wanna talk comic making, pick up some books, or some of our comic board for your own creations, or you just want a Lorenzo sketch, I hope you’ll be able to come along!
