Shiver Art – Shiver Bureau

Shiver Art – Birth of Pickle

Tue, 29 May 2012 00:38:00 +0000

These pages are some of my very first sequential pages I ever drew. I had just recently discovered Mignola and Hellboy. Not only that, these pages birthed Pickle.

I thought these would be fun to share. Pickle and myself have really come a long way. He’s been with me since the start and I am glad I get to launch Shiver Bureau with him…even if he is a little punk.

The first appearance of Pickle. What happened to his green hair. Who knows, but he has a green tie.

Hey look. Page 2 and I am already redesigning characters and changing styles completely. These pages were only a few days apart. And there’s Pickle’s green hair.

What this? Another style change? Pickle is looking pretty sweet I got to say.

Hey, only a slight style change here. Below are some cover ideas. Did I say I had recently discovered Hellboy?

Shiver Art – Concept Sketches

Below are some concept sketches for Pickle and also a test page trying out a really quick and rough style. I was also playing around with the idea of a simple color technique. I really do like that 2nd panel of the hallway. It’s always the simple stuff that is cool.

Shiver Art – First Promo

Tue, 10 Apr 2012 00:26:12 +0000

This was the first true image created to promote Shiver Bureau. It was drawn the night before I headed to MegaCon 2012.

One of the benefits to being able to make your own prints is your are able to handle rush delivery.

I did work on it pretty late into the night, but all things considered this came out pretty nice. About 1 month later, I launched the comic.
