It's DINO DAY again!
Wow... we're down to the last nine weeks of Dino Day. That's crazy. Hard to believe that I've drawn a dinosaur every week for nearly a year.
This week's piece was a fun experiment. I went to Artist and Craftsman Supply in Kansas City over the weekend and just randomly picked up a few pens and brushes to mess around with. I love doing that. Art supply stores can be a dangerous place for me-- the best kind of dangerous.
The ankylosaurus was always one of my favorite dinosaurs growing up. Ethan recently pointed out that I hadn't drawn one yet. I promised to do it this week and wondered why, over the course of the last year, even as a favorite, it hadn't made the list. When I sat down to draw it, I remembered-- the things that make the ankylosaurus cool are it's turtle like shell and massive club like tail. I always loved the tail. The problem with the ankylosaurus' shape is that it just doesn't fit well into this silly square format I chose for the project. So in today's drawing you get the head and part of the cool shell, but not that amazing clubber of a tail.
The piece was done on an 8x8in piece of bristol board, using a really fun green Pismacolor Premier brush tip marker.
I've got some news about the upcoming DINO DAY art book coming your way soon. The holiday kind of swallows everything, so it'll probably end up being on Monday of next week. Good good things, though!
Okay, see you next week!

It's DINO DAY again!
I'm not a digital artist. People do absolutely brilliant things digitally. I'm even a little jealous of the things can do with it. I just work better with pen and paper.
Since digital art isn't my forte, I thought it would be fun to step out of my comfort zone and actually try it on one of these Dino Day pieces.
The original piece was drawn in pencil on a piece of 8x8in bristol board. I scanned that and then built the rest of piece in layers of flat color.
In the end, I'm really happy with the way it came out. I hope you all dig it too.
Now I'm off to make dinner.
See you next week!

It's DINO DAY again! It's a new week! Wow. I'm not going to lie...last week was a rough one. I had a crushing deadline on Constantine and some tough life stuff hit at the same time. It wasn't easy. Luckily, I managed to fight through and late Monday night finished the Constantine issue. And you know what? I feel like a new man. I'm exhausted. Might be fighting getting sick. My hand definitely hurts. But I'm good. It's nice to be done. ...now on to the next issue!
I wanted to do something different for today's piece. I wanted to step outside of my comfort zone. I wanted to mess with a medium that I don't usually play with. When I was a kid my mom had this set of oil pastels. From time to time she would break them out and do a little something. I was always amazed with it. I never really got into oil pastels myself. They're messy...and I don't really like messy. But I wanted to try something new, and I was thinking of my mom, so I went out and bought a set of oil pastels. Nothing fancy. Just the $15 box at the local Michaels. It was messy. It was outside of my usual wheelhouse, but it was fun.
Today's piece features a Therizinosaurus (the Wolverine of dinosaurs) on an 8x8in sheet of bristol board. I wanted to pull back a bit to show the Therizinosaurus' crazy long claws, but a portrait worked better with the oil pastels.
Okay, I'm going to go take a nap. I deserve a nap.
Next week will be week 42, ten weeks out from my year long Dino Day adventure. In addition to my usual post, I'll have some announcements to make about the Dino Day book project for you!

It's DINO DAY again!
40! 40!! We're down to the last twelve weeks of this thing. That's craziness!
Did I say I was under the deadline gun last week? I think I did. THIS WEEK though... I may have over exaggerated last week. That deadline gun has me in it's sights. I think the trigger has been pulled. It's gonna get me.
Owen has been asking me to draw a Spinosaurus. He's kind of into the big ugly things at them moment. After a hard week of drawing comics, I was in the mood to draw something nice and loose goosey. I went with a continuous line drawing. Those are always a lot of fun.
Todays piece was done on an 8x8in piece of bristol board, using a size 1.00mm Pigma Graphic pen.
Okay, I'm going to get back to it. Constantine has cigarettes to smoke and magics to do.
See you next week!

It's DINO DAY again!
I'm wiped out this week. Sometimes making comics just isn't easy. This is one of those times. I still love it. Every day I get to make fun things. Sometimes it just doesn't come as easily as others.
This week, I woke up and stepped on a little plastic stegosaurus on my way down the hall. After I hopped around cursing for a bit, I decided it was fate and I should draw a companion piece to week 16's brontosaurus. It was always one of my favorites. Little. Simple. Fun.
Today's sketch was done on a 4x4 remanent of bristol board, using a 03 Deleter pen and YR24 Pale Sepia and W10 Warm Gray 10 markers.
Alright, there you go. I need to get back to work...but my need for a nap is going to win out.
See you next week for another DINO DAY!

It's DINO DAY again!
Today's piece is a special one to me-- a collaboration with my 9 year old son Ethan. This piece really gets to the heart of what I wanted to do with Dino Day. It's me and my kids having fun, making things, and loving dinosaurs.
I asked Ethan if he'd be interested in penciling the dinosaur of his choice and then let me ink it. He was happy to do so and just knocked it out of the park. He wanted to draw a Spinosaurus but then when I looked over again he'd also added a Postosuchus, a nice background and even a couple of teeny tiny Pteranodons flying in the distance. I loved it.
I've collaborated with creators for years. I have to be honest, I don't think I've ever been more nervous that someone was going to like something that I inked. I wanted to do it justice. In the end, I'm pretty happy with my inks over his amazing pencils.
The collaboration was done on a 12"x12" piece of bristol board with a live art area of 8"x8". Ethan penciled it using a HB school pencil and I inked it using a Zebra brush pen and a couple Deleter pens.
So yeah, this was a ton of fun. Getting to work with my kids has been the best part of this whole experiment.
Thanks for checking it out!
See you next week!

It's DINO DAY again! This week it's a double header!
So yeah-- I owe a bit of an apology. Last week I was in New York for NYCC on Wednesday, and in spite of my best efforts, Dino Day just didn't happen. I worked on a piece, but with running around the city, waaaay too much food, and general shenanigans, I couldn't finish it and get it uploaded in time.
But I'm back this week with both pieces and I'm pretty darned happy with them!
Week 36 is based on a study from the Natural History Museum in New York City from the main room of their dinosaur collection. It was done on using Kuretake Zig Writer pen with .5mm and 1.2mm ends on a piece of 7x7in bristol board. I quickly bounced from tip to tip, using the 1.2mm end to block in black shapes and the .5mm end for the finer linework details. I like how it came out. It was something fun and definitely different from a lot of the pieces I've done for Dino Day.
Week 37 is the companion piece to week 25's ultra popular Hipstasaurus. This one features the HipHopasaurus (or Beatasaurus). He's pretty much my new favorite. The piece was done on 7.5x7.5in piece of bristol board using a crowquill pen and Paynes Grey FW acrylic ink, with just a touch of Orange (YR68) Copic Marker for the accents.
Okay, that's it for this week. I'll do better not to slack off again.
Until then--

It's DINO DAY again!
This week I'm busy. Crazy busy. Deadline busy. I'm not really sleeping much. My time is at the drawing table.
As usual, when things get this busy I wrestle with it all. Still. STILL! I work in comics. I'm drawing Constantine. And-- dinosaurs.
Thanks to the crazy schedule this week I woke up in a blind panic and realized that I needed to do today's Dino Day piece on the quick. Rather than do my usual routine of a bit of breakfast, coffee, and futzing around on my phone, I stumbled downstairs, picked up a pen and some paper and just started drawing. Honestly, I'm not even sure a was really awake when my pen hit the paper.
Today's piece is a dilophosaurus (the spitting one with the neck thing from Jurassic Park, that apparently didn't have a neck thing...or spit) done on the quick on a sheet of 4x4in bristol board using a Zebra brush pen, a 03 Micron pen, and a Faber Castell Pitt big brush pen for fills. It was done in about 20 minutes. I'm pretty sure I was fully awake about the time I was scanning it.
Okay-- that's it for today. I need to dive back into work. So close to wrapping this issue up!
Oh, I'll be in NYC next week for Dino Day. I'll have to figure out something special!
See you then!

It's DINO DAY again!
The Pachycephalosaurus is another in the "consummately goofy looking" group of dinosaurs. They've been on my list to draw from day one and have constantly been beat out by my desire to draw anything else. I know, I know. We need variety! ...but seriously-- draw the one with the weird head or another T-Rex? T-Rex is going to win every time.
This piece was drawn in Zebra brush pen and black colored pencil on a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 in. piece of bristol board.
So there you have it, the Pachycephalosaurus! Next week, it's back to the cool mean looking ones.

It's DINO DAY again! I'm crazy busy this week. I have a deadline looming on CONSTANTINE, some work on my newly announced book WOLF MOOF to do for Vertigo, a big project today, and I'll be heading to Iowa City this weekend for MID CON. Needless to say, today's post will be short and sweet.
Recently the script for CONSTANTINE #19 called for cool panels of ominous clouds. Instead 0f drawing in cloud shapes to be colored later, I thought it would be fun to go more organic with them and try out a few watercolor cloud skies. I did a series of cloud passes using Windsor Newton Paynes Grey watercolor paint on really nice Arches watercolor paper. The first one was...not the best at all.
Today's piece was done on a cloud test piece of watercolor paper using a Zebra brush pen. I thought it would be fun to draw a Pteranodon portrait. It immediately made me think of Sauron, the MARVEL COMICS character from the Savage Land. It made me laugh.
Okay, that's it for today! Work work work for me!
See you next week!

I see a law suit coming. The cop over reacted. No shots had been fired and the person making the 911 call even said the thought the gun might be fake. Yep cops getting sued. If this was a black kid we would probably already know, especially if shot by a white cop the riots would have already started.

I think all these women had consensual sex with Mr. Cosby at the time and now that it is politically convenient for some one with a lot of money they are using his past against him. Trying to anyway. Who does this benefit? Let me see. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton for starters. Those race baiters would love Mr. Cosby taken out of the picture for what he stands for. Cosby is a problem for them and they have to shut him up. More so now that ever for some reason. Does it not bother anyone else that this is happening right when Ferguson is about to explode? You know Jesse and Al will be right out there egging the protesters on, but what would Cosby be trying to do? Talk them out of it, or he probably would have. Or maybe it's something else coming down the pike we haven't seen yet. Who knows?

Isil destroyed the tomb of Johna. Are they sure it wasn't one of their own who did it? They like destroying monuments. Mosques, Churches, Buddhist statues thousands of years old that are beautiful works of art. I would look to their own ranks first. They could have done this themselves to garner pity. The palistinians do it all the time.

Gearing Up for Christmas in Brighton + Taj's Tea Parlour
It's mid-November, and therefore I am allowing myself to start to celebrate Christmas. Slowly. I love Christmas a lot, but I kind of need to ease myself into it, lest I explode into a cloud of magical sparkles.
This will be my second Christmas season in Brighton (although I will be spending Christmas proper in Rome this year), and I have these conflicting feelings about the affair. On the one hand, it feels familiar to me this time, whereas last year it was all brand new. On the other, I'm still not used to it being this mild at this time of year. It is very difficult for my brain to get into the Christmas spirit when I am often having to remove my coat because it is 14 degrees, and much too stuffy to wear it.
Everything is still a bit on the cusp, in Brighton. But bits of Christmas are beginning to pop up here and there, as I saw while I was out for a bit of a stroll earlier.
I ended up in Brighton Square, which has some Christmas lights that I definitely need to go back to see when it is dark outside.
Currently in Brighton Square is the Brighton Etsy pop up shop! I had a bit of a browse and got a few great ideas for gifts for some of my friends. I would tell you more but 1) I don't want to risk spoiling anything and 2) my friend Rosie went to the launch of the Etsy pop up shop told us all about it on her blog!
Finally, we all know how I love a good tea shop. I was lured into Taj's Tea Parlour (which I have always wanted to try) by a combination of vintage Christmas songs, adorable decor, and a sign that proclaimed gluten free goodies to be available! Those, my friends, are words that are so special to me.
Taj is so lovely and friendly! She had a sample of the gluten free brownie with white chocolate and raspberry available, and I simply had to have it. It was moist, chocolatey without being overpowering, and the blend of raspberry and white chocolate was perfect. While I was there, she was actually working on a few bakes, and got quite excited over a Baileys filling that, quite frankly, must be amazing if her other food is anything to go on (I also heard exclamations over a particularly delicious sandwich, from a fellow customer).
I am such a sucker for mismatched floral china patterns! So adorable.
Now I feel as though I am fully prepared to take Christmas on and make the most of this busy, sparkly season! Now I am off to curate a special holiday playlist and figure out how I wish to decorate my flat!

Kim Dotcom is rejecting claims he had anything to do with thousands of emails belonging to shock jock blogger Cameron Slater being hacked.
Slater claimed today he had texts implicating Dotcom in the hacking but Dotcom said it was a diversion.
"This has been designed to shift focus away from Slater's own dirty dealings on behalf of the National Party,'' he said.
"I've said it before but I'll say it again to be perfectly clear - I had nothing to do with any alleged hacking. And while we're on the subject, I had nothing to do with Nicky Hager's book, either."
Author Nicky Hager drew on Slater's emails for a book titled Dirty Politics targeting links between National and Slater.
Hager has also denied that Dotcom was behind the leak.
Hager said last week he may release the emails but said today his source had refused him, as he may release them himself.
Internet Party leader Laila Harre said she did not know about the book or the hacking ahead of the launch of Hager's book last week, calling the accusations "extraordinary".
"This man is living in a fantasy land I don't know what planet he's on but I'm not travelling there with him."
Slater was "caught up in some sort of elaborate delusion".
Harre also called on Justice Minister Judith Collins to step down, saying the person responsible for the Electoral Commission and its funding should not be associated with people whose stated goal was to discourage people from voting.
"To have the minister in charge in the Electoral Commission so deeply embroiled in this whole organised attempt to reduce democracy I think is completely untenable. The Prime Minister should remove her immediately from her role."
The public had to have confidence in the oversight of the commission "and I do not trust Judith Collins... and I do not believe that New Zealanders should trust her either."
The Electoral Commission had been concerned over the reduction in voter turnout and had tried to obtain more resources to increase turnout.
"I believe that the revelations last week give us a pretty good explanation about why the Electoral Commission has been starved of the funds to launch a massive campaign to increase turnout in this election. Higher turnout is the last thing this government wants."
Beefing up the Commission's resources would show the Government was serious about promoting turnout, she said.
A low voter turnout favoured the right, she said.
In a blog post today, Slater linked the hacking to other incidents including National MP Mark Mitchell having his personal emails hacked and office broken into, and claimed Tony Lentino, the businessman who formerly supported Dotcom, also had his office broken into.
Others including a blog contributor and a media person who was a vocal critic of Dotcom also had their emails hacked, Slater claimed.
Dotcom's former personal protection manager, Wayne Tempero, had contacted him this morning concerned about the string of events.
"He had only now worked out what was meant by a text conversation he had with Dotcom on [June 17]," Slater said.
He published screenshots of that text exchange.
Kim Dotcom:
"Wayne, I know what's coming. I want to offer you a friendly way out. It's going to get ugly. You don't want to be on the wrong side. You know me. Let's have a chat. Kim."
"Friendly, nothing to worry about. I think I deserve that."
Kim Dotcom:
"Phil spilled the beans in front of 2 lawyers and 2 other witnesses for 2 and a half hours. It's all out in the open. We have been collecting evidence and witnesses for 3 months. I hired professionals to get me information. We are preparing a case against everyone involved. I would like you back in my corner Wayne. You know a lot and you know what they are doing is wrong."
A spokesman for Dotcom said the Internet tycoon 'flat out denies' any involvement in the hacking or with Hager's book.
The text messages posted by Slater related to a defamation suit Dotcom was compiling against Slater relating to posts on his Whale Oil blog.
The claims were a 'laughable right-wing conspiracy theory'.
Further questions have been put to the Internet Party founder.
Prime Minister John Key says he doesn't know the identity of the hacker - but says it would be good if they were outed.
"I I haven't spoken to Cameron. All I can guess - and it literally is a guess - obviously it has to be someone with motives and it has to be someone that is sophisticated... my understanding is that they got into his gmail [account] and I understood that to be really difficult to get into.
"He runs his own ship, he is his own entity... so I don't have clue."
Hacking was a "serious matter" and Key said he expected there would be a prosecution if there was proof.
"This is someone who is essentially stealing material. And I think New Zealanders would say that whatever the rights and wrongs of politics, and whether its a dirty business or not, that's an illegal activity and makes everyone feel a bit uncomfortable."
Asked if there was much public sympathy for Slater, Key said: "Well I don't know and I really don't sort of care... he's just running a blog site like anybody else."

Deal 'great compliment' to all at Heinz: CEO
Send this to a friend
- Malia Spencer
- Reporter- Pittsburgh Business Times
- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
H.J. Heinz Co. (NYSE: HNZ) Chairman, President and CEO William Johnson started his public discussion about the company's historic deal with Berkshire Hathaway and 3G Capital by commenting on the decade-long journey the company has been on to become the "global powerhouse" that would interest these two investors.
"This is a great compliment to all who have contributed to the success of this company," he said.
Heinz has had 30 consecutive quarters of organic top-line growth, he told the group reporters gathered in a company conference room on the 31st floor of PPG Place.
Since 2002 the company has transformed itself from a U.S.-centric manufacturer to a truly global brand. About two-thirds of the company's sales are outside the United States and about 25 percent are within the fast growing emerging markets such as Brazil and Latin America, China and India.
MORE: 8 weeks from dinner to deal
Back in 2002 emerging markets were only 7 percent of sales.
During this time the company has also streamlined its products going from six categories in 2002 to three categories:
- Ketchup and sauces
- meals and snacks
- infant nutrition
Alex Behring, managing partner at 3G Capital, said the investor group was interested in Heinz precisely for the positive moves Johnson has been touting at shareholder meetings and conference calls.
The company, he said, has great consumer perception around the world through its iconic brands and "the company is in an enviable position in the food industry on a global basis," Behring said, noting that within its categories Heinz brands are either the No.1 or No.2 brand.

Originally written on Kukla's Korner | Last updated 11/20/14
I had to watch this one from my family's Christmas party (it was lovely) with the volume off for over half the game, but I felt that the Wings' 8-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings finished at such a lopsided score for a simple reason: around seven minutes into the second period, when the Wings would have been very happy to cruise along with a 4-1 lead, still shaking the loosey-goosey defensive play which plagued the Wings through the third period of their loss to Nashville ever-so-slowly out of their games, engaging in some self-induced stretches of stupor thanks to the caliber of their opponent and their opponent's competition level. Then the Kings tried to stir things up. They went after Jimmy Howard, who took a penalty at the 7:26 mark, and they kept going after Howard after the penalty-kill, and even after Jarret Stoll scored a goal by very obviously picking Niklas Kronwall off far behind the play and then utilizing said pick to beat Kronwall back to the front of the net to ...

Practising mindfulness has had a big impact on addicts, reports
Alison Armstrong
AT THIS time of year, there seems to be a cultural obsession
with shopping. First, we were buying for Christmas; now, we are
assaulted with the January sales. For most of us, once this season
has passed, we return to a more normal level of day-to-day
But not all of us: there is a portion of the population
(believed to be about 5.5 per cent) for whom shopping and buying is
an addiction. The media have displayed "shopaholics" as a joke, but
the reality is that this often ...

US representative Gabrielle's attempted assassin awarded seven life terms
Washington, Nov. 9 (ANI): The man who pleaded guilty to shooting former US representative Gabrielle Giffords, in an attack that left six dead and 12 others injured, has been given life imprisonment.
US district judge Larry Burns sentenced Jared Lee Loughner, 24, to seven consecutive life terms plus 140 years in prison for the January 2011 shooting.
Loughner pleaded guilty to federal charges under an agreement that guarantees he will spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole.
The hearing marked the first time victims, including Giffords, could confront Loughner in court.
Her husband spoke on her behalf, saying Loughner changed his wife's life forever, but could not dent her spirit, the Guardian reports.
Addressing the court Giffords' husband, former astronaut Mark Kelly, told Loughner he had failed in his attempt to "extinguish the beauty of life".
According to the report, Giffords suffered a head wound that left her with speech difficulties, a paralysed right arm, diminished sight and a limp.
Several survivors of the shooting also gave statements in court, including Giffords' former congressional aide Ron Barber, who also was wounded, the report said.
Loughner pleaded guilty in August in federal court to 19 charges, including murder and attempted murder, in connection with the shootings outside a Tucson area supermarket, it added.
He admitted going to a "Congress on your corner" event armed with a loaded Glock 19 pistol and 60 additional rounds of ammunition with plans to kill Giffords, the report said.
Loughner shot her through the head at close range. Six people were killed, including US district judge John Roll and nine-year-old Christina-Taylor Green.
Court-appointed experts said Loughner suffered from schizophrenia, disordered thinking and delusions. (ANI)

Will Mayor Rob Ford's struggles merit a plaque?
Toronto mayor's troubles have piqued the world's curiousity about Toronto
|Report an Error
Share via Email
View 2 photoszoom
You can read Toronto like a book, because words are scattered along our streets. They are found in abundance on plaques and other markers. Some tell a local story, others connect us to far away places, like our chunk of the Berlin Wall in Nathan Phillips Square.
For a brief period, Toronto's Cold War connection was missing. Located on the Queen St. side of the middle Freedom Arch that spans the skating rink, it was moved during revitalization construction. But the slab is now back by the arch, with its plaque dedicated to the struggle for freedom.
There is no central bureau itemizing the hundreds of various and sundry plaque-like markers on our streets, so it's difficult to say how many are out there, and no one is keeping track of some that go missing, though Heritage Toronto comes closest.
The arms-length city agency responsible for keeping Toronto's history alive, Heritage Toronto has been actively installing new plaques that, unlike older, cast iron markers, now include great archival photos. You'll find them around town, like at Spadina Ave. and Bloor St. where three plaques commemorate the fight against the Spadina Expressway. Back at City Hall, another explains that Nathan Phillips Square was the site of Toronto's first Chinatown, and out along Eglinton East there is one marking Scarborough's Golden Mile postwar development.
There are many other plaques around town, sometimes put up by private owners on their buildings, by local community and business organizations, or even other levels of government. Some, like the marker in Amsterdam Square at St. Clair and Avenue Road, recounting the day in 1974 that city's mayor and Toronto's then-mayor David Crombie twinned the two cities, are fun to find. Likewise, if someone finally figures out where Toronto's first pizza joint opened, a plaque should mark the spot.
Even the posters people put up on poles are a kind of plaques, describing a part of neighbourhood life right now, whether it's a yard sale or a lost cat. You can literally get a reading on a neighbourhood by looking at the poles.
Like mapmakers, those who control the plaques control history. For a few years during the 2000s the Missing Plaque Project (missingplaque.tao.ca) was started, marking locations without official plaques with pasted up posters, like the 1981 bathhouse raids and the 1992 Yonge Street Riot, with some sites later getting proper plaques of their own.
Today, Toronto writer Adam Bunch runs the Toronto Dreams Project, (torontodreamsproject.com) where he leaves fictional stories on postcards around town based on actual historical figures, blending fact and fiction.
Great cities live in our imaginations made up of real and fictional stories, yet Toronto has somehow not been able to occupy a permanent part of people's brains the way other cities have, despite an abundance of stories here.
Until now, that is.
Everybody here and elsewhere is suddenly talking about Toronto thanks to the mayor. Like or loathe him, we've all had to field question from out of town relatives and friends asking what (insert expletive) is going on in Toronto? It has become a dark story — one participant, Anthony Smith, seen next to Ford in a widely-circulated picture, is dead.
A small positive is the mental space opened up by Mayor Ford in so many minds, here and elsewhere. It's a chance to tell other Toronto stories. Toronto is occupying so many heads for the moment, let's keep them filled with Toronto stories once this particular one passes.

Syndicate reboot due out at the beginning of next year?
Numerous reports have been appearing suggesting that EA have revealed a release window for Starbreeze's FPS reboot of the Syndicate series.
Apparently it was suggested at their recent Las Vegas Showcase that they were preparing the Syndicate FPS title for release in February of next year.
EA only recently announced that the new Syndicate title is in development at Riddick developer Starbreeze confirming over a year's worth of rumours.
A release in February would certainly be a surprise development although it is unclear how long the title has actually been in development. When we find out more you'll be the first to know.
Thanks MCV.

Alan is the funniest guy i know and it had been a few years since we had worked together. It was also a good excuse to get him to Birmingham for an overdue hang! My mom. dad, sister, brother, husband, son, Alan himself, and other family and friends got together for a Christmas themed pool party. It was literally a 2 day party... lots of bud(weiser;) and lots of laughs!"
