In-between sketches for FCBD yesterday, I worked on this version of Rocket. My first and most lasting impression of this character is the Mike Mignola drawing in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe. I’m glad he’s found such a prominent role with the Guardians of the Galaxy since he’s such a fun character.

Thanks to Acme Comics for inviting me to sketch for kids at Glenwood Rec Center for FCBD 2015! It was great hanging out with such a cool group of artists and such a privilege to be involved.

I've been practicing sketches for Free Comic Book Day, trying to decide how to pull off the best quality piece in the least amount of time.
