Shadowblade Concept Art -Terinn

The streets of Creymon are populated with all kinds of questionable characters doing whatever is necessary to survive.

Terinn can often be found lurking outside the various taverns waiting for drunken patrons to stumble out clutching a few extra coins for adult entertainment. Often times, she disappears with the money before revealing any skin, leaving her clients drunk, broke, alone, and confused.

Concept art by Shadowblade cocreator Kevin R. Phipps.

Kickstarter #3 launches February 3rd!

Unveiling Shadowblade Issue #3 Variant A Cover

We are proud to reveal the cover for the first variant of issue #3 of Shadowblade. Pencils and inks are by Chris Hanchey and colors by Kevin R. Phipps.

Chris has been a massive supporter of the series so far. He has graciously donated variant covers for all three issues. Chris is known for his work on Iron Man, Hulk, and Transformers besides his own hit series Androsaurs. Between this and Kevin’s work on X-men, GI Joe and Captain America, we have some significant talent on this project.

This cover features three antagonists Fiel, Rinnick and Troam. Kalli and Amarah cross paths with these violent mercenaries in the City of Creymon.

To mix things up, this cover will be presented in a horizontal orientation. This gives it the feel of a British quad style movie poster. It complements the cinematic style we’ve striven for in the series so far. This is what happens when you turn filmmakers loose on a comic series.

Shadowblade Issue #3 – Concept Art

As we continue to move through issue #3 of Shadowblade, my writing and business partner Kevin R. Phipps continues to create concept art for the characters that inhabit our world.

In issue #3, Kalli and Amarah reach the city of Creymon where the streets are filled with colorful and unique characters. This is Rinnick, one of the characters our heroes cross paths with.

Back in the Saddle Again

This past weekend I was a guest on an indie comics panel at Phoenix Fan Fusion. This was my first panel in almost seven years and it felt really good to get back in front of an audience again. By next year, we should be close to wrapping our first trade for Shadowblade and we’re talking about getting a panel together dedicated to the project. Watch this space!
