Hank: The Once and Future Kaminski

Some of you already know, but last week my dog of 14 years, Hank, passed away. He was the best pup in the world, and had a true Kaminski personality. Our family loved him dearly and he will be missed.

Hank stuck with me, even through the horrors of Fester's Quest.

He lived a good, long, full, life. He traveled several states and thusly pooped in them. He protected our yard from the evils of cats, bunnies, squirrels, and airplanes. He was always there and brought us a lot of happiness. Growing up with him around, I tended to use him as a drawing subject a lot. Here are the last sketches I drew of the pooch a few weeks before his passing:

 

As a final send off from me to him, I drew up a sketch of him and one of his first nicknames from way back in 1998 "Hank the Tank".  He'll always be my favorite dog and part of the Kaminski family. Rest in peace buddy.

Finished cover and WIP's

Hey guys and gals,
Just wanted to keep you updated on the cover. It was featured on coveredblog on Friday July 22! I was excited to have it on such an awesome site, featured along with so many other great artists. Thank you to Robert Goodin for featuring me. Here's the finished cover (you can see it side by side with the original cover illustrated by the talented John Romita and Gil Kane on the covered website linked here). The other image I have for you guys is just a personal piece that I'm working on. So I have the inks to put up today. Enjoy!
