That's approximately 195 pages of art or illustration there from me for 2006! That's probably the most I've ever done in one year. The storyboard work has influenced and changed my style and the flow of my craft quite a bit. Of course, I'm still learning and trying to improve as always.

I'm hoping to still be able to draw and produce a decent amount of artwork for 2007 even on top of my new full-time job, as I want to have both Knight-Edge #4 & #5 out as well as start my webcomic idea/project.
