Yeah yeah, I know. It’s been like forever. Well I have a good excuse this time. Honest. No really… I do.
Golly!, the new book by Phil Hester and Brook Turner that I’m colouring will be coming out in August. So the rush is on to get issue two and the following issues prepped coloured and ready to go to print. Big rush. So I haven’t been doing shit else. And that’s life. For those interested, here’s a link to an article about the first issue:

So yeah, that’s what I’ve been up to. But I was able to squeeze in something for fun. Another link:

I met this fine man, Simone Guglielmini, on Penciljack and was impressed with his work. His blog is in Italian, so good luck. Anyway, his work has a bit of a Tim Sale/Sean Phillips quality to it. He posted a cover on Penciljack that he had drawn and inked and I asked him if I could slap some colours down on it. He said sure and off I went. This post is called “departures” for two reasons. One, this little picture is a departure from Golly! for a minute just to cleanse the pallet. And two because this is very very different then my normal colouring style. His art reminded me of Long Halloween and so I wanted the colours to reflect that as well. And so here it is….
Very different from my usual fare, but I like it. I thought it turned out nice. So, let me know what you think.
