The awesomely talented Casey Bug EXPERTLY and DELICIOUSLY draws Princess Gina for us! I was so thrilled with this drawing - and you will be too!! Thanks, Casey!!

And here you go! Remember that Princess Gina wallpaper I created (and Don colored) sometime back? I had no idea ahead of time that you’d have to download stuff, etc. etc. and jump through hoops to get it when I did it for another website. Soooo, here you are. Download to your hearts content, and I will also place it in the DOWNLOADS section with the new Vorik wallpaper and the MAP I made available and other fun stuff! Enjoy! (It’s now my wallpaper, too)

– Simply click on image for larger view, then right click to make your desktop wallpaper. Let me know if you use it!

P.S. Don created a killer gnome wallpaper out of a panel from a recent strip that I will also post soon. Huzzah!

Working on a Dark Queen drawing in the sketchbook, as well as a Princess Gina drawing on the facing page. Considering making a small painting of the Dark Queen one! Whatta ya’ think?

In the LoB forum we were discussing a Legend of Bill card game, and our very own colorist extraordinaire, the wizard Don Kuehn, made this mock card to show us what a LoB card could look like… BRILLIANT! I HAD to share. Thanks, Don!! I think this is a card every player will need to have in their deck!!

I am proud to unveil the 2nd drawing (of 3) by Legendary fantasy artist Larry Elmore, of Snarf meeting now only Bill this time, but Princess Gina! I’m sure you all remember Snarfquest from Dragon Magazine back in the 80’s, not to mention Larry’s legendary TSR/D&D work, DragonLance work, and a plethora of other fantasy art. I’m just busting at the seams to show you artwork from this master of our belovedly stupid barbarian, Larry’s own Snarf, and the buxomly barbaric Princess Gina!

Gosh, when I get excited, I tend to unleash into a little bit of alliteration.

BIIIIG THANKS to Larry Elmore for this, and wait ’til you see the THIRD drawing! Woot woot!!

I’m starting to think the neurotic barwench and Sir Lance might be a better match…

Holy smokes - the gang’s all here! Open your eyes, people!

 I have to admit I had a BLAST drawing panel 2 (and Don had a blast coloring it, right, Don?) lol

Next Episode! Thursday, March 11th - mark your calendars! Sketchblog updates daily! (like today even!)

This week’s Fan Art Friday is from W. Troy Dongarra, a professional caricaturist and illustrator, who can be found at Ten Buck Toons! A BIG thanks to Troy - I love the crosshatching and illustrative look of Bill and Princess Gina… and Troy’s take on Bill finally getting the girl! Thanks again, Troy!

It’s good to see Gina, er, Dark Queen Gina again… And what is the deal with that barwench? lol

** New Readers: Princess Gina (as you see here), is actually the Dark Queen in Princess Gina’s body, as she switched bodies with her in order to escape the Dark Lands and find her beloved Bill. Princess Gina (in the DQ’s bod) is also looking for Bill,, and I suspect she is not far behind his trail! And Bill, well… he is too stupid to know either way!

Thanks as ever to Don for the excellent colors!

Next Episode: Monday, March 8th - sketchblog updates daily (and Fan Art Friday tomorrow!) I also need to get in gear on the horse-naming contest! Thanks for being patient!

Starting a Dark Queen sketch… perhaps surrounded by some fantastical beasts… we shall see where imagination takes us!
