Down in Fraggle Rock

January 4th, 2011

Happy New Year, everyone!

Lindsay's portfolio has been updated with new illustration and comic samples, including a cover illustration for the Fraggle Rock comic series.

Keep an eye out at your local comic book shop for the upcoming Fraggle Rock Vol.2 Issue 3, due out in March -- Lindsay contributed a cover illustration (Cover B) and a short comic for the issue! The comic and cover will also be available in a hardcover collected trade later this year.

You can read about the coloring process of making the Fraggles cover here.

New webcomic by Jared and Lindsay

July 15th, 2010

I've started posting pages of The Last of the Polar Bears online as a web comic. I'll be posting pages, as well as write about the process of making comics, as time allows. You can read The Last of the Polar Bears comic here: www.lastpolarbears.com.

Why the webcomic format? I started working on The Last of the Polar Bears a year ago, researching, plotting the story from beginning to end, designing the characters, and working on the sequential art. After storyboarding the first chapter, I determined the complete story would be around 500 pages. I strongly believe in The Last of the Polar Bears and its message, so rather than keeping the project hidden for the next several years while I work on it, I've decided to make the pages available to readers as they are created. I'd love to hear your feedback. :)

P.S. If you know anyone who might also enjoy the comic, please pass along the link to them! Thanks and enjoy! :)
