Hey there! Here's my first Daily Sketch of the New Year! If you want to have my new sketches emailed to your email inbox, subscribe here.

Between client work, seasonal blahs, and family issues, I haven't been keeping up my Daily Sketching like I wanted to.

BUT!

I did draw something today!

Hey fam,

Blacc Ice is one of the characters from the new comic THE MELANITES, which is published by my client B.A.T. Industries.

The Melanites is written by Tyger Moore and my GhostWerks brother Corance Davis, with art by a bright young Nigerian artist who goes by Pitch.

Print copies of The Melanites #1 are expected to arrive in February, but you can read the PDF right now if you order here.

We're so excited about the upcoming storyline of The Melanites #1 that we're creating multiple contests to commemorate this epic release!
