More Galaxy 6 Returns!

Peter Sasaki of the Scoundrel Forums recently commissioned some of my blank return cards from Topps' Star Wars Galaxy 6. Peter, you see, has been amassing a pretty sweet collection of Star Wars movie posters as sketch cards. He's already got Episodes I, III, IV, V, and The Clone Wars, so that's where I came in! I took care of Attack of the Clones and Return of the Jedi for him, and I'm honored to have been part of the collection with those other great artists!! Here's a look at the rest of them:


Thanks again to Peter for commissioning me, and I hope you enjoy your full set of cards!!

My Thoughts on e3 2011

Since I'm hurting for Star Wars art topics lately, I thought I'd give a brief overview of my thoughts on this year's e3, which happened this week in California. Video games have always been a huge source of my inspiration, so it's an appropriate topic, right? ;) These are my Top 10 most-anticipated games seen at this year's e3:

10 - Battlefield 3
9 - Modern Warfare 3
8 -Assassin's Creed: Revelations
7 - Rocksmith
6 - Gears of War 3
5 - Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary
4 - Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
3 - Super Mario 3DS
2 - Halo 4
1 - WiiU

What did you guys think? Were you surprised? Happy? Angry??

"WTF!" is Finished!

The title says it all! I've finished the interior art for the book and have handed it off to the printer! I'm excited to finally wait on my proof for approval!! Here are the 3 types of art featured:

• My old favorites and most popular art to date!
• Brand New Art!
• Old favorites given huge makeovers to make new scenes!

I'm really psyched about the brand new art (which is dominantly non-Star Wars art), but the "made over" art is really cool too! I'm excited particularly about the redone Ghostbusters 2-page spread, as well as a certain clone captain you all know I'm crazy about! Here's a quick glance at that...But just enough to wet your appetite!

There's still time to pre-order and guarantee a copy of the book with a free sketch card, too! You can find the full details HERE!

Return Cards and Zelda Informer

Hey guys! I finally received my Galaxy 6 cards, and are putting them up for sale.

Available are:

- Luke Skywalker (Shadows of the Empire)
- Mara Jade
- Kyle Katarn
- Yoda/Mace Windu 2-piece (not for sale individually)
- Obi-Wan Kenobi (Clone Wars)

If you're interested in buying and owning one of my first pieces of OFFICIAL STAR WARS ART, please make me an offer! I am not accepting offers under $50 per card, because these are more special than my personal traditional sketch cards! Yoda and Mace are only for sale as the set, and I will not be accepting offers for less than $100 USD for them.

I'd love to see these go to DA members or blog subscribers, because I know you guys will be a good home and would much rather sell them to you, rather than put them on eBay.

***Also of note!!***

I've been sent a few Galaxy 6 blanks as well! If you have an officially licensed Star Wars character you'd like done by me to own, I will use one of the blanks to make it happen! The highest offers I receive will guarantee your request to make it into the Galaxy 6 family! This is a huge opportunity!

There are restrictions, set by Topps Trading Cards:
- No nudity or gore.
- No original characters, only licensed characters.
- Keep the scenarios in good taste, please!

Hope you guys are interested!



Also, in other awesome news, ZeldaInformer.com featured me in an article this week, plugging the release of "WTF! The Art of Joe Hogan!" They also revealed that we've made a deal to do a sweet canvas print of my own new Zelda: Skyward Sword art, exclusive to Zelda Universe! Stay tuned for details on that!!

Original Trilogy Contest Winners!!!

I'll let the video do all the talking.



Congratulations to everyone who participated!! You did a fantastic job!!!!



For anyone who can't view the video on YouTube, I went ahead and uploaded it to a MediaFire server for downloading!
