The Punchin’ Bag – 29 thru 34
I’m trying to be better about posting on theslimjames. Here’s a collage of the Punchin’ Bag I’ve done in the intervening months. I’ve begun to experiment more with layout and technique. In particular, inkwashes for shadows give me a little more control over light and dark.
PS – The Punchin’ Bag’s “home” is on Tumblr.

A Preview of Etienne
I’m working on a little short featuring Etienne, an anthropomorphic Canadian goose. Here’s a sneak peek.
The Punchin’ Bag 25 – A New Beginning
As cliche as the title is, it at least has double meaning, as Punchy quits the Elite Team and I try out a few new stylistic flourishes for the “season 2” of Punchin’ Bag (to be collected in the second print edition at a later date).
