hey people, just wanted to say THAAAAAANKSSSSS!!!! for all of you that voted for me last round, i got the most votes by a little over 100, which was unexpected, but definitely cool. this round, i'm a little more worried to be honest as to whether i'll make it through. i had to really crank out the pages, and the quality suffered a bit i'm afraid. that said, i would REALLY appreciate if any of you feel like voting for me tomorrow at noon. here's the link: www.comicbookidol.com thanks!!!!!!

                            
hey peeps,
  i am now back from the kubert school, and i'm already busy!! i actually was fortunate enough to make it into the top ten on comicbookresources.com's "comic book idol" contest. i'll be duking it out with 9 other talented cats until i get voted off, so if you like my stuff, please, get to the site and vote for me on wednesday june 9th!! i appreciate every one of you guys, and thanks for all the nice comments that have been left, even though i havent been updating:)

hey peeps!

its been a bit since i wrote in here, but i just wanted to say that everything went great in san diego. it was the most fun i've had a LONG time. met up with a bunch of people i know from online, and they were all cool. i dont get to hang out with other comic artists that much, so it was really nice to be around people that have the same goals as me. i also got a chance to talk to some industry folks, and they had pretty good things to say about my work, though there are definitely still some rough spots. they were all very helpful, and i was surprised at how well they reacted to my stuff. wierd. anyway, everything went well, and i'll DEFINITELY be going back next year, more prepared, and hopefully ready to get some work:)-MiCAH
hey everyone!

its getting close to the san diego con, and once again i've procrastinated:) i'll be working hard up until the moment i leave on all my samples i'm going to show. you'd think i would learn to get things done early but NOOOOOoooo.
  in other news, i'm the first featured artist for the new "MAS: monthly artist showcase" website. its a really cool site, and you guys should DEFINITELY check it out. go here for more info: [link] its got some art from me that you wont really see anywhere else until my website rolls around in about a month or something. hopefully sooner, but we'll see. also of note, my character design on "MAS" will soon have colors by the great danimation2000. if you dont know who he is, you should do yourself a favor and click here: [link] when you diss dan you diss yourself! fool. haha. anyway, check his stoff out, he's amazing. later!

heya people!

well, i just purchased my plane ticket for san diego, so its now a definite that i'll be attending the san diego comicon this july. i'll be there for the whole four days from the 16th-20th, and i'm really looking forward to it! i've been to the pittsburg con, the wizard world philly con, and the wizard world chicago con, all of which were really cool, but the san diego con is supposed to be the biggest in the states i think, so i'm looking forward to great things! i'll be hanging with some friends when i get there and also pimping my work around to anyone who will look, but i wont be too busy to say "hey", so if anyone recognizes me or something or sees my work, be sure to holla! anyway, thanks everyone for checking out my stuff on here, and thanks to all of you, i hope to hit 5,000 hits before too long:) see ya!!!!

  WHAT UP PEEPLES!! haha. not much going on with me. i just recieved "star wars underworld: the yavin vassilika" in the mail so i'm a happy camper. for those of you who dont know, it features some truly exciting art by carlos meglia. he also did tarzan/superman, and despite what seems like a ludicrous concept, has a cool story, along with some kickass art. my kind of book:)
   i dont know if there is any interest out there at all, but i just want to let everyone know that i'm more than happy to take commissions of nearly any kind. just hit me up with the details, and we can discuss pricing, etc. i dont work for free, but i've been told that my pricing is very reasonable. anyway, thats my little sales-pitch! see y'all! -MiCAH

hey everyone. i've been drawing alot lately, trying to get better at a lot of the weak areas i have. i've actually found that one of my favorite things to sketch with is a blue ball-point pen. its just so smooooth, which makes it easy to infuse my sketches with energy and motion. you can also do different shades and stuff, which is nice.
other than just drawing and stuff, i recently have decided that i'm going to be attending 'joe kuberts school for cartoon and graphic art' next fall. for you non-comic artists out there, its basically the only school that concentrates solely on comic book art(though it also has a cinematic animation major). i feel like going to the school will definitely improve my skills as an artist, and it will also provide me with training that will prepare me for a career as a comic artist. i'm really psyched about it, and i'm really looking forward to hanging around other artists with the same goals in mind that i have. now i just have to come up with the money...-MiCAH
hey all, this here is my first journal entry as you can see:) i'm having trouble replying to the comments that have been left on my little space here, so i really want to take the time out to really thank all you people for the kind words about my crappy artwork. its seriously encouraging to know that some people actually like my stuff enough to come and look at it:) thanks so much!!!

Wow you pretty much put into words what I feel and think of art styles. *feels like I'm in the twilight zone.* Keep rockin' it man. You're the creater of your own world. In the end that's what an artist is. A creater. And those who truely have the gift ar
