New Work - COVER ART

Hi all-
I should be (if all falls together with a contract) working on a book for publication in France next year. Two albums. Very cool. Great writer. New style things from Tom Lyle.

Here's a taste of what is coming:







I'm very excited about what is coming from this.

Can't give any details yet, but it's a cool adventure, political-intrigue story with a smidgen of sci-fi as well.

Good stuff.

By the way, they won't be using this as a cover, but it looks good anyway.

Very Cool! Congrats on the cool gig! Are you inking your work as well?

Tom Lyle said...

Andy-
They're going to color the pencil art.

I'm intrigued to see how it works.

Two 66 page albums - 11 pages a month for all of next year.

Not bad.

How are you doing?

Tom

That's awesome... It'd be cooler if it was something those of us fans here in the USA could grab. :-)

Ooh! How exciting! I can't wait to see where this goes! Congratulations in getting into the France comic scene as well!

John-
If things work out well - as they should - it will get released in the US later, too.

That will be neat for me.

So great to see some new Lyle art! Is it going to be published in French only? Or will there be an English version? Either way great stuff. Glad to hear good things are happening.

Congrats on the Gig, Tom!

The piece has a strong moody feel overall, and I like
the subtle 3-point perspective that you have applied to it.

It's Dave Ross saying 'Hi' . I've also been teaching in a Sequential Arts program (four years and counting) up here in the Great White North ( Toronto CAN.)

Oh the stories I'll bet we could swap!

Drop me a line and I'll send you some j-pegs of a
current project that I'm pencilling with Bob Layton's
Inks. I have scans of the Thumbnails, Finished Pencils and Inks that I can pass along to demo my
working process. It's always good for students to see range of different approaches that we all use.

Cheers!
Dave
