I generally don't look back that often, but this past year was a little crazy for me and I had a couple of fun break-throughs.
This one kind of had me trying to do something "normal" which I thought came out reasonably well.
Working with Lord K was a real learning experience. I found by trying to form someone else's vision into a work that met my artistic sensibilities to be a real challenge.
What a trip this was to try to create a photo-real manga character. Masamuni's detail heavy, high stylized works have always been an inspiration to me.
Though no one really seemed to respond to the image (or wanted to alter it to fit their vision) I enjoyed the exercise of creating this character while leaving the actor relatively unaltered.
These next two were just pure fun to do.
 
I found this to be real fun, and was fortunate enough to be able to have it come out looking reasonably like the Michael Turner image that inspired it.
This was just a ton of work and I learned another ton during the making of it.
This is one of my favorite collaborations of all time.
Unfortunately I can't show you the thumbnail for this one, 'cuz it is one of the sickest thing I ever done  and a great tribute to a great guy

I hope my 2007 turns out to be as fruitful in artistic growth, but less so in drama
