Broken Scanner

Hey all, sorry for the long delay but scanner kind of took a dive & had to be replaced, so hang in there and if all goes well I will have several new drawings up later next week. Yeah I could use the camera but I hate the look of a camera shot of art work, so check back next week and for all over at www.pumpkid.com, pages! Oh yeah!

Until next time, stay cool & peace

Problem with following contest!

OK, so I noticed that there r a few more followers here at markatopolski.com, which is awesome, thanks so much! The problem is that I offered the 10th follower a free sketchcard of their choice & blogger won't tell me the who joined at what time! I have most of ya at 1/10, which doesn't really help me, so unless ya all can give me a time frame, I will just pick the winner! Which I know sounds unfair, so if ya remember what time ya all joined, thru me a message at mtopolski1@gmail.com so I can be as fair as possible, plus if ya do that thru in what sketchcard ya want & please remember that I do comic books, cartoons are fine too, movie or tv versions r fine too & no, I am not doing this to spam ya mail later, I won't even keep ya address... really sorry for the mishap :(

If anyone knows how to find out to figure this out, the leave a comment or mail me, again, sorry for the mishap :(

Peace

PumpKid...finally!

Here is the first real PumpKid sketch! I know I have done others, but I have kind of finalized the character and his abilities! There is a new website called, pumpkid.com and in the next month I will be posting character sketches and pencils pages! So if ya an inker, colorist and lettering, I am looking for ya! I am hoping to have something to send out to publisher by early spring time. So contact me if ya interested and if ya a colorist, please give a try out, the color scheme is not to tough, blue jeans, black and white shirt, flaming sword and flaming ball of fire in other hand. I am open to what ever anybody is willing to do!

Thank and until next time and go check out pumpkid.com!

BAMF!

I am not really sure what this is, besides that the word says BAMF, but it suppose to be a "Bamf" from Uncanny X-men #153. Enjoy!

If anybody out there has any suggestions or ideas what other kind of daily pin-ups I should do drop me a line and ya get the original if I pick to do it :)

Until next time,
Peace

I have cancelled all my "extra" projects and will be recommitting myself to doing what I should of been doing all this time, PumpKid©! So hang in there for a overhaul and some new work in 2010. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
