I LOVE your rendering, and interesting to see the issue with WW's face. There's great drama, cheesecake and some action...really perfect issue. The last page with the two minotaurs walking amongst civilians was soooo foreboding and the panel with Hera (?) was a great way to mix some humor into such a striking image. <br /><br />Keep up the great work, and do you have a con schedule?<br /><br />Thanks, <br /><br />Damjantoodieselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17094060508176038353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11949176.post-41547930848397725142012-01-12T14:07:59.759-06:002012-01-12T14:07:59.759-06:00Ahoy there, Tony!

I realize this post is a year old...but it's about Matt Baker!<br />I'm a Graphic Design major and huge fan of Matt's fabulust illustrations, and he deserves so much more attention than he has gotten (!?!). I don't think it is a far stretch to say he might just be the pioneer of the graphic novel, reading that he had the idea of more of an illustrated book as opposed to the usual comic book format. I was sad to read of his short life, but what a legacy and impression he created in such a short time! I have an assignment that requires writing a paper on someone in my field of study, and being known to choose the less obvious/popular choices, my husband said, "Hey! Why don't you do your paper on Matt Baker?" Great idea, and a way to show him off! There is a book out about him: Matt Baker: The Art of Glamor, by Jim AMASH and Eric NOLEN-WEATHINGTON, I found today in my search. Anyway, just thought I'd share the Baker admiration. I would love to see some of you and your father's work. How wonderful to be a second generation artist! Wishing you happy illustrating and much success!Quichehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18390057086505601302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11949176.post-10255489388965779442010-12-28T12:04:25.104-06:002010-12-28T12:04:25.104-06:00Hi Tony, a coworker of mine introduced me to your ...Hi Tony, a coworker of mine introduced me to your blog (juan Gomez)<br />Your stuff is freaking awesome man, I've had a good time checking it out.<br /><br />I have recently started working on a book of my own and was wondering if you could share some of your experience with me an any way.<br /><br />you can check out my first stab at comics at http://frankellstoryboards.blogspot.com/<br /><br />I will put the new stuff there this afternoon.
