(Note: The text below was written a few years ago. I most likely will never finish this project, afterall)

Unfortunately something came up and I wasn't able to use the cartoon idea I'd had scheduled for August 15th, so I decided to use the two scans of the penciled roughs I took off the canvas I am working on now. For those of you familiar with this current project, yes I'm still working on it. I tend to work fast with my other mediums but take my time on the big paintings, especially with all the other things I have going on now... yowza. These two are of course the roughs I went by for the painting, and I do hope to be able to repost this page with the finished painting for viewing - but I've no idea when that will be. As I'm finding out, it doesn't pay to have schedules half the time, things keep coming up when you have a ton of projects coming and going! :)

Also as you've noticed the cartoons of Talon and Ed haven't been hockey related - they're based on his hobbies and interests that he has for a short break from the "norm" and I'm hoping to start the hockey toons up in September again, with other typical holiday toons thrown in here and there. Anyway, enjoy these two sketches and I hope to post the finished painting *some* day soon heheheh. (actually it's funny seeing this file sitting next to a scan I did of how it currently looks, it underwent some changes as the paints were going on)
