The times.... they are a' changin'

Ah yes soon I will be moving from Brooklyn, NewYork, my home for the past 3 years, to Manchester, Connecticut... with my parents. This in an attempt to help them pay off my student loan while saving some cash on the side. My loan, is 812$ a month and is the bane of my existence. Yeah sure i could probably get a higher paying job doing......... anything (well not anything, but college degree anything) other than comics but its a start and I'll just have to see where it goes from there. Honestly I am scared shitless about what my life is going to be like for the next few years but its what i gotta do. Gotta save that money. Alright so this is all well and good but here is something interesting. I participated in a little exercise in concept design over at ArtOrder (Jon Schindehette the art director for Wizards of the Coast.... his blog). All who enter were tasked with designing an evolved version of the cockatrice from D&D (or mythology if you think about it) this was mine. It was very interesting to see everyones take on the creature. I dont think i evolved mine enough. Personal favorites were this and this. Best thought out and best rendered of the bunch. This week the creature in question is a race of little critters called teh Garreth..... Not sure if i will get to this one. Reeeeeeeeeealy want to though.
