Make sure you’ve gotten in on the Rocket Girl Kickstarter currently running!  It’s a series by me and Brandon Montclare, launching in October.  A teen cop from the future is sent back to the 80’s to take names.  What’s not to like?

Hi guys! I’ve moved this shop over to a new domain, and combined it with a few friends- enter THE WEREHOUSE! 

Not to fear- all orders that were made through my old Bigcartel site will be shipped this week- and if you haven’t received an order for some reason please email me- beckyattack@gmail.com, and I’ll sort out the problem asap! 

I want to thank everybody for championing my self-published work, and sticking with me even though towards the last few months it got a little crazy— especially now that con season (and allergies) have kicked in! 

The main reason for the new store is because I just can’t keep up with this stuff on my own. It’s grown way bigger than I ever thought possible! I am overwhelmed by the support you’ve shown me over the last few years, and I’m pleased to say that I’ve mailed out over 4,000 books in that time!!! This whole thing has been a huge learning experience, since I basically jumped into this without any idea of what to expect, and now I feel like I might kind of know what I’m doing! (More or less.) Now with the Lounak guys behind Werehouse, it’ll free up more of my time at the studio to getting comics drawn!

So check out the Werehouse. It’s got work by Andy Belanger, Karl Kerschl and a whole bunch of other stuff too. Some products have bene taken off to make way for new ones, and DEMETER has been added up as a preorder! (Exciting!) 

I want to point out one big change that comes with the new store- I’m phasing out my silk screened covers, which will be replaced with a new, completely offset edition. This new printing will still be wicked nice- I’ve even updated the cover design of both Wolves and The Mire! The interiors won’t change- really this just makes the silk screened editions a little more “collectable,” whatever that means. :) Rest assured that you will still be getting a good quality book; I took a page from John Hammond’s playbook and spared no expense. 

As for DEMETER pre-orders, there are two options- $10.00 for the screen printed cover, and $5.00 for the offset. (There is also a third $50.00 sketch edition available, that is limited to 100.) The extra color on the cover raised the price point- but it looks great and I have no regrets! 

Any questions you guys have please feel free to ask- I’ll try to answer them as best I can! :D

Thank you, I love you!

It’s my Batwoman issue 6 cover!

1. Sketch—this was originally flipped, up until I colored it and realized it was better the other way.
2. Inks
3. Copic Marker grayscale rendering
4. Colors—these were perhaps my easiest colors you’ll see here because most of the work was done.  But there’s a trick to coloring greytones so they don’t look so dead…click here if you want my advice.  The only real work with the colors was that I separated/washed out the scanned art in places to create a misty depth.  So her left thumb is washed out compared with her right fingers, etc.

What do I do when I’m sick? I google “cat beards” on google images and here were some of the best.

Holy shit. I didn’t know that was a thing. HOW DID I NOT KNOW THAT WAS A THING? [Note to self: take cat beard selfies.]

Quite possibly the only cat meme I’ve ever really appreciated.

Madame Xanadu issue 1 cover!  One of my favorites.  Took me a long time, but it was totally worth it.  X’s become arrows; all the corners were symbolic of the times and places she would go in that arc, and it became the back design to all her tarot cards.

5. Rendering
6. I colored the linework—something I used to do more of back in the day.  Every line was colored meticulously to match the colors around it!
7. Added texture/logo.  This cover was all about the textures, which I created in Corel Painter using the watercolor brushes.

Halloween Eve cover!  This one had a lot of detail, so the trick was in separating everything in the colors.  The stuff behind her I made extra blue tinted, and the stuff behind that I did in warm colors.  Plus, I created plenty of glow to make the right things pop.  Those shoes were fun.

A popular reward in our Rocket Girl Kickstarter has been the Halloween Eve add-on at $14.  Very awesome!  Makes me excited to expand the library of creator-owned things I’ve done.  Hope you all like it!
