Book Cover Illustrations

John Chadwell recently interviewed me for an article in Amazing Stories Magazine. You can read it here: The Long Road to Digital Illustration: Profile of Duncan Long Chadwell is a long-time writer who was a co-writer on several scripts with Ron Shusett (one of the writers of Alien and the original Total Recall). Chadwell also has […]

I recently had the chance to create the cover artwork and layout for John Chadwell’s new science fiction novel Legends and Liars. It was a pretty straight-forward design job with an illustration that would reflect the idea that much of the story would take place in space. The lettering then “nailed” it as a science […]

Most of my werewolf artwork comes from the illustrations I did for the graphic novel Werewolves of New Idria which was written by John Chadwell — and currently available at Amazon.com. AND… (taking a side junket into advertising land), I must note that the graphic novel makes a GREAT Halloween present. You can order it

Our graphic novel Werewolves of New Idria is now available from any number of comic book stores as well as from Amazon.com It has 152 pages with 80 double-page illustrations in a “widescreen” format. Here’s the story blurb for our comic book: “A new breed of werewolf! Holy warriors, led by a 900-year-old knight who […]

Some time back book author and screen writer John Chadwell sent me a photo (above) that I thought I’d share. As you can see, he’s standing in front of the book and graphic novel covers I created for his action-adventure novel and graphic novel. And, yes, that’s his Facebook page showing there on the monitor […]

Sometimes I’m contacted by writers having questions about how to translate a script or novel into a format that would allow an artist to create a graphic novel of the story. The process is not as straight-forward as one might imagine. Many writers make the mistake of trying to put too much into each page […]

John Chadwell got an interesting interview and write up about our upcoming graphic novel The Werewolves of New Idria in the Hollister Freelance newspaper. The twist here is that the paper is close to New Idria where the final climatic scene is set. Hopefully the locals don’t get too spooked by the story :o) ===================== […]

Received this photo of a jolly John Chadwell standing in front of the book cover and graphic novel cover I created for him. And, yes, that’s his Facebook page showing there on the monitor at the lower right. John has a lot to smile about. His scripts for both stories are now making the rounds […]

Moonstone Books recently released the covers for the comics and graphic novels it will release this upcoming July. Among the group slated for July release are a couple of installments of Buckaroo Banzai along with That Man Flint and the Spider. And, yes, even a new series Zombies vs. Cheerleaders that seems to have something […]
