Nguyening It!

It’s been a minute
Crazy how time flies! It was just a few years ago that I posted work-in-progress storyboard art for Retro. Now Aaron Lindenthaler and I are working toward finishing the first issue of the comic! Here is the regular cover for the first issue.
RETRO #1 Cover A (rendering may not be final)
Check out the trailer for the original short release!
The payoff. Thanks WordPress followers!
Thank you for following the blog for the past few years everyone! I know it’s transitioned away from a daily sketch blog recently, but that doesn’t mean it won’t continue to be a blog about my art and art process.
You might remember seeing the loose storyboards for Retro awhile back. I told you to keep an eye out, right 😉? We did it! We premiered yesterday with Dances with Films at the famous Hollywood TCL Chinese Theatres!
The response was overwhelming! Truly humbled and thankful. The story doesn’t end here. Retro is going to be reworked by the creator for comic format too! The kickstarter for Pablo the Gorilla has a launch date for June 26th. That’s right, in 10 more days! We’re going to need all hands on deck. Click here for the email signup!
Then I’ll be at Rose City Comic-con in September.
Moving on
Whew, I feel like there’s a lot going on in my life right now. I’m gearing up to launch Pablo the Gorilla a kickstarter campaign. I hope you’ll join me.
Retro, a short film I did art for, premieres at Dances with Films this month. If you’re in Los Angeles, I hope you will join me June 15th, 2:45 p.m. at the world renowned TCL Chinese Theatres. Tickets are available now.
If you can’t tell from this image, I’m collaborating with a writer on a new project. You’ve seen a thumbnail and concept drawing. We’re going to see how much we can get done before Comic-con.
Then, well, more work coming!

Daily doodle: Go catch @Spiderverse #Spiderverse
I really enjoyed this flick. It’s the most enjoyable Spider-man movie since the first one, in my opinion. And it also hit me in the feels. You’ll know when you see it.
Daily Doodle: Momentum
This board actually was sketched with a range of motion but I decided to focus on the ones I felt were the primary moves.
Daily doodle: Pangolink #Inktober #Voltron #Robeast #contest
Voltron the Legendary defender is hosting a contest to design a robeast to fight Voltron. The contest ends tonight at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time. I thought I’d do a quick doodle and submit. My guy is based on a pangolin. They’re awesome and endangered animals.
Daily doodle: #goliath #gargoyles
Completing the winged warrior challenge for Sketch This. Any Gargoyles fans?
Daily doodle: Rusty
I don’t know if you heard, but the official complete series of Big Guy and Rusty the boy robot just came out on DVD recently. I love these characters. Anyway, quick chibi Rusty is today’s doodle.
