You can buy the book here and make me filthy rich.
There is an error in that one image is repeated twice. I am correcting that, but you might end up with a rare “first edition” that includes the glitch. Your riches will flow like honey from a pot of…honey.
Got this in the mail today! I haven’t said much about it and I haven’t put up a link on my website because I wanted to get a look at it first. And it looks good. Real good. I’m extremely pleased with the way the colors reproduced in print and I’m in love with the format (“manga” size).
So I’ll put this up on www.jwarts.com with a link to it on Ka-Blam in the off chance someone will buy a copy.
And expect a Volume Two very soon.
Two hundred seventy-seven pages into the pin-up book. I’ve vanquished the archived folders with the exception of a few nice sketches. I’m hip deep into the Dungeon Minds folder, mining the shit out of it. I had forgotten just how much work I pumped into that comic. And very, very few people have ever seen it. Probably for the best…
179 pages of Blood Red: Pin-Up Art by J.V. West are laid out. I still have one more archive folder to go through, then the more recent stuff, then all the various project folders. Pretty sure 300 pages is a no-brainer, too soon to say how much more than that I’ll end up with. I’m rejecting the ones I just don’t like or that are just too sketchy. Though I do plan to include some kind of sketchbook section, probably at the tail end.
This is a mammoth project. I’m loving it but it wears me out!
Sketches, ideas, drawings, and ponderings.
