        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ After years of absence, I've relaunched the Drawstick art forums and would like to encourage everyone to come by and log in,sign up, or re-register. I've wiped the board clean and given it a fresh coat of paint so I hope you'll come by and have a look around. I'm encouraging an open lounge atmosphere with little intervention by me or the moderators. When we last left off, we had 1800 members and I've invited everyone back so I expect the board will be hopping in no time but, for now, it's a virgin board ripe for the pillaging. This board is for you guys and gals so I hope to see you all there!<br />Drawstick Art Forums: http://drawstick.proboards ]]></media:text>

The 2006 sketchbook is hot off the presses and available for your immediate consumption. The book is a bit more impressive this year with 42 pages of doodles, sketches, and linework I've done over the last year. Over 100 drawings crammed into one handy dandy book. The sketchbook comes SIGNED and square bound(no staples for this bad-boy) with a glossy cardstock cover. As a little BONUS, I like to doodle original sketches on the inside cover from time to time so you might be lucky enough to randomly receive one of the sketch editions!!<br /><br />NOTE- ]]></media:text>

Every year Wizard Magazine hold the annual Wizard Fan Awards. This is much like the People's Choice Awards in that it's one of the only comic awards that's chosen by the fans instead of indutry professionals and insiders. Right now they are holding the nomination ballot to decide which 5 titles/artists/publishers will be chosen for the official ballot that will be released in a few weeks.

It's basically a large book edition with a ton of original artwork created by various professional artists including Pat Lee, Don Guici and a ton of others. I have a handful of pieces appearing in the book so, to honor the release, I will be posting 1 image every day for the next week featuring some of your favorite Transformers.

Warms my heart to the core=).<br />  Not sure what to write here or how this sort of thing works but I'll do my best to improvise. As far as what's going on with me, been hard at work finishing a secret project for Marvel Comics along with starting up Cable/Deadpool for Marvel which will be written by Fabian Necieza. I've been primarily a cover artist up until now so doing interior pages is a whole new world for me but, as stressful as it is, it's a whole lot of fun!<br /><br />More soon!<br />-MarkMy hand hurts............... ]]></media:text>
