CHAMPION OF DEMA COMPLETED!!

That’s right people!

What we've all been waiting for is finally complete. Champion Of Dema is done! All 82 pages of artwork have been inked and revised. Can't believe we made it, all the way from a kickstarter campaign and now to a finished product. The novel is going to be pretty awesome if we do say so ourselves... Here's a quick sample :)  

A completed double page spread from Champion of Dema.

What we're doing now is compiling the pages together, going through each page, proof reading, rearranging and just making sure everything is 100% top notch. We're also working on additional pages like credits, journal excerpts and so on.

Pretty soon we should be looking to send the pdf book off to the printers and then it’s only a matter of time before we get back the hard copies and all the beautiful people that pledged and contributed can finally receive their rewards all at once.

Then the next step will be promotion... doing our best to spread the word and get this graphic novel into every comic scene that we can. That is going to be the difficult part and we sincerely hope you guys will be willing to help us in any you can with that.

We're so excited and honestly can’t wait for the world to read this graphic novel. We would love to hear all your opinions on it :) 

That’s all the news we have for now folks

CHAMPION OF DEMA... What is it?

I have buckled down and started working hard on the stand alone comic project; Champion of Dema which I hope to have ready by the October MCM. But I bet you're all wondering what is this Champion Of Dema about... after all he keeps mentioning it on the social media sites but we don't know what it's actually about and it's not on the website. Well all that is about to change.

Let me start by giving you the low down on the story. 

Champion of Dema is about a young man named Kade Mabrin who’s forced to be a hero (or in this case a champion) but keeps trying to escape his responsibilities.

Every 10 years in Dema someone is magically chosen and seemingly at random to become the new champion (hero) of the city. Kade Mabrin has been chosen as the new champion of Tema to uphold justice and defend the city against evil beings known as soul-takers. Unfortunately for the city, Kade has no intentions of being a hero, instead he would rather spend his days gambling and partying.

This story is a little unique in the fact that it is going to have various elements of the African culture in it, so for example, a lot of the clothes will be African clothes.

Right now I'm in the process of designing the character Kade Mabrin and a few amazing artists have sent their ideas. Which one do you guys like best (keeping in mind he's supposed to be black)?

The various versions of Kade Mabrin done by 6 different artists.
