"When The Fat Lady Sings" A short story by Danny Monz

Saturday, February 11, 2012

I will not be posting "No Such Thing As Normal" Page 3 on this blog.

I was going to post the black and white preliminary artwork for Chapter 1 Page 3 of "NSTAN"; Instead I have decided to let the previous post be the last page preview until the book is launched. From here on I will continue to post concept art for the project as well as thumbnails, roughs and other updates of that sort. Really enjoying the artwork now as the story is beginning to take off. Just finished writing chapter 2 of the book, the story is really starting to take shape. I can't wait to get to the artwork for chapter 2! I just feel like I always want to keep going faster and faster the more I get further into the story. For the rest of the weekend I will be making my corrections on pages 1, 2 and 3, finishing up and printing "When The Fat Lady Sings" and working on thumbnails and roughs for the upcoming pages.

"No Such Thing As Normal" Page 1

This is the finished inked page 1 of "TAL". I was planning to use watercolor paint to color this comic but I'm wondering if it would work better in black and white? Let me know what you guys think!

Christmas Card 2011

Finally found the time to post the Christmas Card I made for my girlfriend. The dialogue is an inside joke but I liked the drawing I did on it so I figured I'd post it up.

"T.A.L." Issue 0 pg 1 Finished Pencils

This is the finished pencil drawing for pg 1 of Issue 0. They are quite rough since I will be inking the comic as well and don't feel like adding all the little details twice. This preview is just to give you a sense of the specific look of the comic. The one thing I will say about the story at this point is it is NOT a zombie story. Enjoy!

Danny Monz's "This American Life"

Man being back in Savannah really feels good after a long break! It was kinda hard to get things going artistically immediately after arriving in town with getting adjusted to classes, unpacking and running countless errands on my plate. Anyway I'm so excited to get back to the grind and continue what I started before the holiday break. "This American Life" is a web comic I am working on that Is scheduled to launch in May 2012. Here is the finished black and white artwork for the cover of issue 0. The finished version of the cover will be painted in watercolor and have my company logo on it. I will not mention anything about the plot at this point. I guess you will all have to wait and see!!!

Four finished pages from "When The Fat Lady Sings!"

It has been a long break. It has been very busy this holiday season with all the traveling and what-not I have been doing. Anyway at the end of the last quarter I had completely finished 4 pages from "WTFLS" These pages are not yet lettered and are not in order as to not give away the story. Currently finishing up the other 4 pages in my spare time and will post the story in its entirety upon completion.

When The Fat Lady Sings

Almost done with my 8 page mini comic entitled "When The Fat Lady Sings". In the process of inking and lettering the last 4 pages. It is about a dying man whose life flashes before his eyes as Death comes to collect him. Here is the cover to give you an idea of how it is going to look.
