Here’s the postcard I made for Comic-con this year. It’s also the artwork for my new Artbook.

My artist alley table will be FF-21.

The artbook includes new artwork of tributes to some influences I’ve had growing up, including Star Wars, Akira, Bionic Six redesigns, X-men and more!  Also get a look at a ton of my Heroes rough layouts and pencil artwork. Take a look at my creator-owned characters, Shadowzone and Toby n’ Friendz!  32 pages Full Color, Landscape 9 x 7″.

Email me if you want me to hold a copy for you. They will be going for $15 ea.

Hope to see you at Comic-con!

Here’s the last couple of Heroes Graphic Novels I did. With the cancellation of the show, I’m not sure if these are the last ones? Hopefully not…

Welcome to the relaunch of ODAGAWA.COM!

This is a big overhaul of my site. I’ve always felt that with my other site, I didn’t have a way to update easily, have up to date news, etc. 
I also wanted to incorporate an online store to sell some original art, books and prints.

Here’s a quick rundown on what you can find on my site:

• About: Bio information and resume.
• Gallery:  Artwork that I’ve worked on through the years.
• IP (Intellectual Properties): My own original ideas that I’m in the process of developing.
• Contact: Contact me straight from here to my ryan@odagawa.com email address on the contact form.
• Store:  Buy original art, books, prints and more  securely through Paypal or Google Checkout.
• Posts: Up to date news, including convention appearances, contests, new artwork, new store items and more.
• Subscribe to RSS:  Follow my feed and get up to date posts from my blog.

Thank you for stopping by. Hope to see you more often!

One was doing an ink wash on the bgs then coloring them in PS. Also giving the characters a cel-shaded look. It’s probably more of a cel shade/painterly hybrid.

Unfortunately, since I did the ink wash, I tried spritzing the entire page with water, to flatten out the page. It seemed to work, after I put it in between two sheets of glass. The only thing is that it didn’t allow the paper to dry out. It was flat, but still damp.

I left it in the glass for a couple of days, and took it out. It ended up having mildew and a reddish mildew. Eww. So the original is pretty much shot. At least I had scanned it and I chalk it up to being an experiment piece.

New Heroes Graphic Novel! Takes place in 1978. More about the history of the Company. Part 1 of a 2 parter for me, but part 3 in the over all story of 8.
