This Friday I got a great surprise in the mail- the Sept/Oct issue of Airbrush Action Magazine!

I’ve been reading the magazine for years now and have had a few of my paintings and tees featured in their Reader Gallery before.

But I’ve never been THE Reader Gallery- much less have it be a two page spread!

They included many of the airbrushed paintings I did for my one man show last October (at Adam B. Shaw’s Studio), and my website address!

Pg14 has Wicked, Jack, Snape and Bride.

Pg15 has Mummy, London, and Sith Happens.

All paintings were airbrushed with a Paasche VL-3 on canvas using Createx paints and ranged in size from 20″x30″ to 4′ wide and 5′ tall.

This Dracula painting (not featured in the issue) was 4′x4′.

London was 4′x5′ and was the centerpiece of the art show.

Stay tuned for more info on my upcoming Sherlock Holmes art show at Theatre Memphis this October.

Thanks again to Airbrush Action Magazine for featuring my Monsterpieces in their current issue.

Nicki (Darth Sunshine) and I are headed to east Memphis today to join our SMT/Memphis Star Wars Fan Force and 501st friends at Davis Kidd Booksellers on Poplar/Perkins today for their Star Wars Day from 1-3pm.

Lots to do there today including face painting, puppet making, Jedi training, Star Wars costumed characters and more!

It’s also “Read A Comic In Public Day” so well be checking out some comics while we’re there! More info on “Read A Comic In Public Day” here.

Hope you have a comic filled weekend!

This past weekend Nicki, Mama Howe, and I went to the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL.

While we were in Huntsville we decided to see if there were any comic shops in town and there was…

The Deep!

It’s kind of your typical looking comic shop, but very organized with a good product mix’

They have a large selection of current comics, back issues, toys, tees, and more.

No individual Hero-Clix, but lots of other gaming figures and cards to be had- and played.

They have a large gaming area in the back right corner behind the graphic novel and gaming book section.

They have a kids/all ages friendly section.

Lots of cool sketches.

A few of the DC lead figures came home with us.

As well as some back issues and a Blackest Night Wonder Woman figure.

It was Mama Howe’s first time in a comic shop so Nicki showed her how to find some treasures by digging through back issue long boxes and the $1 bins.

I found a few good ones, too!

Stargods #2 (alternate cover) and Stargods Visions.

And a copy of Bushi Tales #2 (regular cover)- all at cover price or just slightly higher!

We had a great time visiting The Deep and will stop by whenever we’re in Huntsville. If you’re out that way I recommend stopping in.
