Dusting things off...

It has been a while since posting here.  Photography and a move from Albuquerque to DC has taken up much of my time.  But things are starting to settle and I've started coming up for air.  I've begun embarking on volume 2 of Captain V Space Dog.  This time I'm taking a more traditional approach and writing a script, thumb nailing my pages and panels and possibly coloring (Gray shading at least).  I've been posting pages from Volume 1: The Heist on a seperate site - Captain V Web Series - Its a free webcomic site hosted my Comic Fury.  Its very functional but my lack of coding skills keeps my web presence from being a little more polished.  Volume 1 was meant to be a coloring book for my nephews and at the same time an executable story that I could see to the end.  Its very simple but my nephews loved it.  Now they are a few years older and I feel I can draw better and tell a little more complex story.  Volume 2 will explore Captain V's roots and relationship with Drogo Blekk when they met on Mars during the second Terraforming War.  I've been working on retooling Captain V so she is more feminine and younger.  Those drawing are more exercises for consistency once I'm ready to draw but I can't help but get pulled into drawing a little more complete pictures.  First is my cast of Martian Marauders and the following two are some ideas from a mining sequence outside of Junction City on Mars.  They are both works in progress but I'm exploring different ideas as I go.
