Prisoner of the Mind Underground

Here is another little gif I made from artwork taken from my graphic novel Prisoner of the Mind.

More weirdness in New York City

Someone's mobile home in the subway, hey at least it's colorful.

Getting ready for spring.

Mardi Gras beads exploded.

Prisoner of the Mind Gif Cole's Nightmare

I am working on a series of animated gifs from the graphic novel. I'll post them here as I finish up. Only two months to go before issue 3 is out.

Weirdness in New York

The beautiful thing about New York City is that you never know what's around the corner. I typically take pictures of the city's weirdness when I can capture it. This is just one of many photos that I have taken, I will post more here in the future.

Packing up my robot collection and moving into a new art studio

This is definitely one of the weirdest ones of my collection.

I'm finally packing up my robot collection, and moving into my new studio. It's too bad I can't program one of them to take the batteries out of his friends and wrap them in bubble wrap.

Here's a shot of something new and fantastic i'm working on

I wish I could say more, but... You'll just have to wait and see. The sword is for reference and inspiration while working on a fantasy piece. More to come...

I just chose the next Nasa space suit design

You can too. This is the suit I chose, but Nasa has three new designs that you can vote for here. Check it out for yourself.

NASA's Z-2 Suit is the newest prototype in its next-generation spacesuit platform, the Z-series. As a follow-up to the previous Z-1 suit, which was named one of Time Magazine's Best Inventions of 2012, the Z-2 takes the next step in fidelity approaching a final flight-capable design. Most exciting, the Z-2 marks several milestones for NASA:

• First surface-specific planetary mobility suit to be tested in full vacuum
• First use of 3D human laser scans and 3D-printed hardware for suit development and sizing
• Most advanced use of impact resistant composite structures on a suit upper and lower torso system
• First integration of the suit-port concept with a hard upper torso suit structure
• Most conformal and re-sizeable hard upper torso suit built to date

Life imitates Art

I was heading back to Brooklyn from the city when I spotted a large truck filled to the top with branches and roots. It looked just like the truck I created in my graphic novel Prisoner of the Mind see page 12, and 25 below. If you haven't checked it out yet, here is a link to issue number 1 on Comixology.

The Orb a two page short comic by Allan Linder

This is The Orb, a two page short story comic I did for Adventures in Comics contest, which was published online today. The contest winners will be announced later this Summer and printed in a book. I wrote and illustrated the story during my subway commute, and then digitally inked and colored it. Read it here for free along with the other submissions.

If you have a hard time reading The Orb here, try Adventures in Comics site.
