Sketch-a-thon update!

Been tied up with deadlines, and I fell behind with the requests. At any rate, the sketch-a-thon is still going, and I'll be accepting requests until the end of the month. Prices remain the same! $3.44 for a single character, $5.44 for two. Prices include shipping. Here's some finished sketches...



In addition to this, I am currently accepting pre-ordered sketches and commissions for Wizard World Chicago and the San Diego Comic-Con.
11 x 17 commissions are $50 for 1-2 characters.
9 x 12 mini-commission are $30 for 1-2 characters.
Just use the handy form below to order!







Decisions, decisions...
What am I drawing for you?




Green Arrow sketch

Drew this for Jon Carroll, for pick up at the recent Heroes Con. The composition itself was tough at first, but I wanted to draw a full body shot of Ollie, so I went for this pose. The background looked bare, though, so my ultimate solution was to add Dr. Light, Deathstroke and Merlynn in the piece. Turned out better than I thought.

I was certainly a lot more satisfied with it than I usually am with any of my pieces.

After months of hard work, The Villain is debuting at this month's San Diego Comic-Con. You're probably wondering what the Villain is about...well, it's simple. It's about the bad guy. It's about the bully who gave you all kinds of crap in school, and what would happen if he received a power beyond his wildest dreams.

Steve Earnhart wrote the hell out of this book, and my long-time collaborators John and Bernadette Joseco took my work to the next level. It's probably some of the best work I've ever done. You can purchase issue 1 from both the Goodbum and Dial R Studios booths.

BIG Sketch Update!

Thanks for all the requests! I'm halfway to paying off this huge car maintenance issue that's screwed up my finances for the next couple months. To speed things up, I'm offering another deal. If you order 4 sketches or more, you get an extra sketch for free. You get a free sketch for every four sketches you get. (you still pay for the 44 cent postage on the bonus piece, but hey, at least the drawing's free) To make use of this offer, shoot me an email at patloika @ aol dot com. I'll be accepting orders for the bonus sketch until the end of May, so order soon!

Here are a few newly finished pieces. Enjoy!

Sketch Sale Update!

Thanks for the support, and keep it coming! Tell your friends!

Due to postage rates going up I had to change the shipping rate to reflect the current rates, so it's 44 cents for shipping. Not a really big thing, I hope.

Here are a few finished pieces.

Also, Pat is lazy...

...and if anyone wants to help me re-design this blog I'll do you a free sketch. :)

Quickie and an explanation.

Well, the streak's been broken, unfortunately, and with good reason.

I've received quite a bit of work in the past few weeks. I can't really discuss much of it yet, but once things start to REALLY happen, you'll hear it here first. I'll try to return to the daily sketch format eventually, or I might post something every other day. We'll see.

At any rate...a quickie that I drew in the office while taking a phone call.
