Pencils and Sketches

Puppets Page
Great Caesar's Ghost, man - this sketch is 1 years old!

Working from pages of some seriously scrubby lookin' pencils I've managed to sketch out a few key scenes in the graphic novel. These scenes revolve around a giant named Cement and a little girl named Miette as they stomp downtown area into rubble.

Puppets Page
This book started a big pile of rats and kaiju. The characters are all sketched out.

Also, is it uncool to say "mon" a lot? I mean, if I am a white, middle-class cartoonist from Indiana? No? Ok, then. Fasten them selt-belts, pards. It's on like Cheech Marin said. Bad-ass galore and a inverse mohawk. Some fella, hear tell. "Mondo" bizarro. Internet viewing audience.

Monster City

This giant monster art is based on my favorite comics and cartoons: Paul Chadwick's Concrete, Sam Kieth's The Maxx and Big O. I've wanted to see all three of them combined for awhile now. The first few chapters are written but not illustrated yet. It's a personal project that will come after the next bug book called Kingdoms .

War Cry

WAR Cry is a full-color web comic being built at Smack Jeeves.com . Another web comic I have going is called War Cry.

I figure: if I am going to be influenced (i.e. "steal") then I am going to be influenced by the best. This material is Horror and rated PG-13 for adult themes and gore. WAR Cry is a full-color web comic being built at Smack Jeeves.com . The War Cry web comic started as my October 2011 24 Hour Comic Challenge pencils and just sort of exploded into a full story set on another planet w/in about 2 hours. The original drawings are over also at WAR Cry on Smack Jeeves . I'm making and uploading newer versions with these Star Trek setting/colors. As the print editions of Roaches and Puppets are getting printed in black-and-white books it's great to use color in a story. Both my current book and m...

Puppets Comic Series

The cover for the first edition of Puppets by Schmitt and Edwards. Puppets is a graphic novel that revolves around a strange 9-year-old girl named Miette and the vengeance she seeks in the form of a giant concrete monster named Cement. As for production, the final art style itself is getting sorted out, pages inked and six chapters of story are completed. The plan is to animate this book project after the book is released. I'm currently planning the audio elements for the animation as I complete art for the book. This is going more smoothly thanks to the writer on book, Mr. Derek Edwards, of White Rabbit Books . Derek has re-written the book into 6 chapters that will have readers following Miette and her fractured childhood. Cement is surprised by another monster, the massive Blob. The Blob busily dissolves people and buildings then is confronted by the ARC equipped military forces. It/they are smashed up into smaller parts by Cement. The scene features Cement, Miette and AR...
