New prints!

I've recently been working on a couple of new print ideas in between pages of Lou Scannon issue 8.

I've been focusing on Final Fantasy 7 specifically and have come up with these two bad boys:

The one on the left is the main one. I did the one on the right first but then wanted something a bit more... dynamic, so I did the one on the left.
This main one is going to be limited to just 100 copies hand signed and numbered and will be available for £10.
The one on the right will only be available as part of a bundle with the first one and the two together will be priced at just £15. There will be an exceptionally limited run on this print. 20 in total.
This bundle is literally the only way to get both of the prints.

I've also had my 80s mashup print redone so if you have been waiting around for that one, you will be able to get it VERY soon!

Lou Scannon Issue 4

So this week I have made a start on the fourth issue in my comic series. I figured I would post some of the images so you guys could see how it is coming along so far.
The issue is going to be a massive homage to a couple of our favourite sci-fi films from the 80's.
We did the cover a while back- in time for the Cardiff Comic Convention so we could launch that as a sneak preview. Here's what I pencilled and Kris coloured:

Ten points if you can tell what 80's film this cover is a spoof of ;)
Anyway, after that preview we had a little bit of a break from the comic because we almost burnt ourselves out doing issue 3. We did the issue in a month and that includes whilst still working our days jobs. That was... hard! So we wanted a break so we could start issue 4 fresh and ready for the challenge.
The break ended a few weeks back when we started outlining and planning out the story for issue 4. We took our time writing it just to make sure we got it right and got all the geek references in we wanted to and with the script finally being ready, I started on the pencils.
Here's page one.

I don't normally post images of my work for the comic as it is in progress but I thought it would be good for you guys to get a look at my work process. Plus this page doesn't exactly give too much away and I figure that if someone who has yet to read the comic sees the cover and recognises it and then likes the interior art as well, then they may be more inclined to take a chance on it!

If you like what you see, Issues 1-3 can be bought and issue 4 pre-ordered from www.LouScannon.co.uk

Hope you like!

WHY I HATE MICHAEL BAY #1

Disclaimer: I know the studio execs wouldn't have reacted like this in reality but I really hate what Bay has done to my childhood and what he seems to be hell bent on continuing to do with his taking the helm on the new Turtles movie and making them ALIENS.

FUCKING ALIENS.

I may do a few more of these but other than that, normal service will resume shortly.

Fuck Michael Bay.
