That time I tried to have the printer use gold leaf. It was too delicate and too expensive for a cover. #design #productionlife #comics

I'm excited to have the opportunity to work on some projects with @marcguggenheim.bsky.social Right now I'm working on the Comixology Original #thewhisperwar, and I recently designed the logo for The Shattered Realm. Make sure to check out The Whisper War. @sedatoezgen.bsky.social art is awesome.

When I was in Italy over the summer, I had to pick up a handful of books for reference. The printing and materials are great. There was a Spider-Man hardcover I still regret not buying. I didn’t want to push my suitcase over the weight limit. I did try to find it later in my trip, but no luck.

In 2014, I helped design U.S. Luge uniforms with Valiant Comics, creating the helmets and contributing to the suits. Erin Hamlin became the first American to medal in Olympic luge singles. Proud my work appears in images and footage from that historic Olympic run. #teamusa #olympics

Some 3D mockups I created. I didn’t have physical copies, so these renders helped showcase the projects.

My AR software is being discontinued, so I’m working on exporting as much content of my projects as possible. Once I have a moment, I’ll transition to a new platform. Ninjak cover art by Mico Suayan. #augmentedreality #AR #ninjak #comics #comicbooks

This was one of the glass covers I designed. I used a spot UV ink to really glow under black light. It gives the appearance the cover has energy flowing through it. Back end of the post shows my progression testing glow in the dark paint on a transparency. #production #comics #comicbooks #glitch

This was another augmented reality piece triggered by an image anchor. The cover was deconstructed, animated in After Effects & imported into an AR platform. Cover art was by @davidnakayama #augmentedreality #comicbooks #comics Effects were pulled from productioncrate & optimized in After Effects.

transformed the VeeFriends Issue #4 credits page into an #augmentedreality experience. I converted the layout into an image anchor, deconstructed the layout in PSD, prepped the effects in After Effects & brought it all to life in Adobe Aero. #AdobeAero #VeeFriends #willfulwizard #ar #productioncrate

I still haven’t given up on bringing #AR to comics. This was a piece I built a while back. Deconstructed and layered the cover in Photoshop. Added extra lighting layers for Livewire. Finally brought the piece into After Effects for the special effects and animation. #augmentedreality #comicbooks

I thought it would be cool to build this AR experience for the REKCAH Publishing banner being used at ComicsPro. If I had time I would have placed this on the side of the convention building at 30 feet tall. #adobeaero #ar #augmentedreality #comicbooks #comics #immersive

Super quick AR piece I built for a beer release. Took a screenshot of the label. Deconstructed it in Photoshop. Imported the layered PSD into After Effects. Added some basic animations, exported as a PNG sequence and brought it into Adobe Aero. Took maybe 30 minutes? #ar #adobeaero #augmentedreality

Experimenting in the lab for a possible cover treatment for the Last Spartan. Inked artwork by Leonardo Manco on the iPad to simplify the piece. I then laser etched the leather sheet on my diode laser. Tinker to come up with new ideas and veer off the normal path. #comicbooks #comics
