This was done for the souvenir artbook for the Calgary Expo. The show is going to be amazing this year! I can't wait!

Nice! But why is he holding a cup of orange juice?

I also saw in the back of January's Wildstorm books in The Stormfront column Jim Lee gives Hawksmoor an honorable mention for best Wildstorm book of 2008. Nice X2!

Keef- it's... carrot juice... for his eyes? Because... guns... blah!

Haha, thanks, Mike Costa and I were extremely pleased about that Stormfront bit!

Caleb- thanks, it's my first attempt with the miracle quick-dry oils.

Dan- thanks, I like the quick dry paints a lot... I never bothered with stuff like glazing before, just worked wet-on-wet, but now I'm a little closer to painting properly. Just a little.

Chris- thanks! It scanned a bit weird because of the varnish but I don't really mind.
