Updated February 22nd 2008!

This month the 2nd issue of the ongoing Hero By Night series hits the stands. Great action packed, all ages read. I love coloring that book because the only rules are to make it fun, Saturday morning cartoon type of fun. It's almost like playing around and not work, although, that's pretty much what every day is like here :D

Coming up in March, look for the 96 page graphic novel, Hotshot and Mighty Girl to hit stands, been working on that for about 3 months now, and it came out great I think. ALSO coming out the end of March, maybe the first week of April, is Big Badz #1. A great werewolf story, penned by THE Chuck Dixon, and artwork by Enrique Villagran. I'm still partly fanboy geeking out over getting to work on another book that Chuck Dixon has wrote, this time not just helping out on colors but actually coloring the entire mini-series. I just hope it sells well enough to warrant a nice trade collection treatment when we're done. I'd love to put THAT on my bookshelf too :D

In other news, Pistolfist: Revolutionary Warrior, a series I colored the first 2 issues of in 2006, is being re-released by Bluewater productions this coming summer, that's another really fun book, and a period where I learned a lot about myself as a colorist too. Still proud of the work on that series to this day. I'm also busy starting digital inks and colors on the 2nd issue of the upcoming Dabel Bros. series, Take a Chance here in the next month, and headed to WWLA on March 13th as well. whew! glad I'm done being sick here this month, things are getting crazy!

I color things, and occasionally do some painting, RPG artwork and concept art. Pretty neat job. Here's a list of some past and present projects I've colored or am currently working on,

Current:
Hero By Night (Platinum Studios-bi-monthly)
Take A Chance (Dabel Bros. Productions-soon to be a monthly series)
Big Badz (Platinum Studios-mini series)
Dragon Cross (Big City Comics-monthly)


Past:
Hotshot & Mighty Girl graphic novel
KISS 4K: Legends Never Die
KISS: Kissmas Special (one-shot)
Dragon Cross
Tempest

Damn, Jason, your digital paintings are awesome. Lemme know if you ever need a writer to add a story to them.

Nice to run into you here. Thanks for the add.

hahaha! I HAVE been slacking off here the last couple of days between books, but I shall return to my previously scheduled Juggernaut mode before the week is out :D been coloring some OLD SCHOOL re-creation stuff I'll likely share here soon, and catching up on my Smallville watching with my son. So when is the Bombqueen videogame coming out man? (or better yet the posable action figure :) )

[ Posted by JamesRoberts on Apr 14th, 2007 9:34 PM ]...

The back cover might become the front cover, Jason. The coloring you did looks awesome. I would hate to muck it up though with the comic logo and all that front cover jazz. I like it best being able to see all the work we did.

Hello from the Gnomon workshop Forums! Nice work Jason! I like your use of light. Don't be a stranger!

Hey thanks Mark! I really dig the work you've done for A Game of Thrones, I did a couple of cards for the last expansion pack, and am currently working up some more for the next edition. GREAT property to work on, but your painting skills make me feel a mixture of admiration, envy and shame all at the same time. Lots of good artists working at FFG. take care!

Really enjoying your work, man. Thanks for adding us.

thank Jim, yeah, but like with any paintings, or artwork for that matter, you're NOT seeing the 2 or 3 crappy ones in between those. And I'm not thrilled with ALL of them, but it's a learning process, I only started doing that kind of stuff late in '06 so hopefully I can get a bit better this year and start to swap out some of the older ones that are weak with some really cool ones soon.

[ Posted by jasonembury on Mar 8th, 2007 12:49 AM ]...

thanks guys, and in answer to your question Jimmy...I been COLORING my ARSE off man! :D (but you still ain't convincing me to try that Zima stuff though)

Zima is the devil's drink. Wait, that makes sense why Jimmykitty drinks it like mother's milk, heh.

Remove[ Posted by jasonembury on Mar 12th, 2007 8:07 AM ]...

Zima is like drinking those flavored water things you see in the store all the time. I never got into those much either. Granted, you down a six pack or maybe a case of Zima, and your payoff is a bit better in the end, but nothing beats an old fashioned rum and coke (except maybe a G and T) My kids favorite joke lately has been to say "hey dad, you know why the rum is always gone? Because you DRINK it, just like Captain Jack Sparrow" which is immediately followed with laughter that is a bit over zealous and out of control. and just to clarify for the kiddies, and in Jimmie's defense, neither of us drink irresponsibly, an occasional drink, once a week at the end of the day, at home, is all us old hermit types can do anymore. A six pack of Zima might just kill me if I drank it.

Thanks for the add man!

You got some nice stuff goin' on, man.

Thanks for the add!

[ Posted by jasonembury on Mar 2nd, 2007 7:30 PM ]...

hey thanks you two. Looked around here a bit today, lots of people I recognize, and lots of cool stuff to check out. Hope to find time to stop in a couple times a week at least. Glad to see you're back in the saddle Dan :D

[ Posted by DannoE on Mar 2nd, 2007 7:07 PM ]...

Hey Jason! Good to see you here. Welcome!
