A new poster for Ricky's birthday. This was supposed to be done a few months back. But restricting time left me with little chance to do it until now - Happy birthday buddy!

Graphic Novel Special Edition

2011-09-20T15:46:00.001-07:00

With the preparation of the first graphic novel, we're throwing a lot of goodies in to the spare pages.

But after these few years of producing the book, my artwork has improved some what, and there were a few images in Issue 1 that I wasn't entirely happy with. Given, there a quite a few pics that don't stand up to the quality of Issue 5. But I'm not willing to re-draw an entire issue. So I've carefully selected the ones that bothered me the most, just to polish up verious bits. For example, the burger boy exterior shot bugs the absolute CRAP outta me. That one will be getting an overhaul.

But I've got to be careful not to do a George Lucas and completely shit all over my own work. I understand it's good to keep Issue 1 the way it is to preserve and show the progress of the story and it's development. So as an example here is another image of Crystal that I thought looked RETARDED!

I've provided a quick scan of the new image to show what will be replacing it. I'm probably going to desaturate the colour a bit too, as my colouring skills back then for comics were relatively new.

The Zombies Ate My Chilean ISSUE 5

Well this one's been a long time coming! But FINALLY I've had enough and need to get to it! The story, layout and cover's been done, so it's now down to me with pencil and paper to make some magic!

New Poster

2010-05-23T07:26:00.000-07:00

So I got busy storyboarding a movie (Jack Falls) which should hopefully be amazing! But anyway,the project took SOOO much of my time that I had to sacrifice a lot of stuff to do with 'TZAMC'. So to make up for the poster, I've made a substitute for the next coventions. Here it is! Check it out! Hope you like it!

Thank you!

Check it out! When our online store is up, look at the cute little thank you stickers that will come on your delivery. Just a nicer way to say thank you for reading our books :)

The Zombies Ate my Chilean SPIN OFF

2010-02-02T10:06:00.001-08:00

This is a concept cover based on the 'spin off' we have planned for 'The Zombies ate my Chilean' series. The first book will cover the events of what happened to Officer Carl Benson after Richard leaves the Police Station.

The books look is based on the old EC horror comics of the 40s and 50s. More so 'Tales from the Crypt'.

Just our way of showing our love for classic horror.

The book will be written by Richard O'Donnell with plans for Pete Moran (talented friend of Alex) to illustrate the book.

Well I gotta say, for a while now I've not been happy with the Zombies logo we use for our books. What once kinda looked good, looks a bit crappy.

So I decided to revamp it, except my illustrator skills weren't up to speed, but it was hitting the lines of what I wanted. Something modern, but B-Movie at the same time.

Then through recovering from an op I had nothing better to do as time away from work left me refreshed and a little stir crazy (enter Richard Prior).

Well here it is!!! The NEW logo for Zombies. I'm totally happy with it and look forward to seeing it come issue 6!

Poster 1 of 2

2010-01-29T02:35:00.000-08:00

YAY! The first blog post! I'm soooo excited! Well, I'd say more web satisfied LOL!

This is the poster that Im working on right now to sell at the conventions we attend. It depicts the ORIGINAL 8 characters from The Zombies Ate My Chilean from 2001.

I'm taking my time and giving it a nice painted effect. It's going to be the first out of 2 posters. The second one I'm gonna be cracking on with once this one is done we'll be the women! So it'll be a nice sexy poster!

But sadly as he didn't fit on the first poster and he's not a girl, the character Justin will be missing from the two. This got me a little down cos I wanted the entire cast in the poster collection, so I may just do a third!

Anywayz, back to all the hard work and stuff
