Art by Ben Hartnett

In stages from late 2007 to the first few months of 2008, I worked on some art for a Bluetooth ‘phone game called “Click Tac Toe”, a clever cross between Tic Tac Toe and Battleship. You can actually try the game for free; in fact, I believe it’s totally free for a limited time. I’ve worked for this chap once before (see here) and both experiences were very positive. For more notes, see the comments.

“Safe Landing” was put together as an entry for the International Christian Comics Competition 2. It was made digitally in Photoshop (mostly Photoshop Elements) with a Wacom Graphire 3 tablet and pen. I got third place in the professional section, which was pretty cool! Another Aussie got second. “Safe Landing” got printed in colour in the competition book, along with my other entry “I Love My Cat”. I’ve edited “Safe Landing” slightly to make it more legible on the computer screen.

This little comic was made for an Australian Christian comics anthology called Pulp Crucifiction. I also entered it in the International Christian Comics Competition 2. It didn’t win but it got printed in the competition book (in black and white). The art was first drawn in pencil, then later I decided to add some digital colour. The cat was based on a real cat named Solomon.

I’ve posted my other entry, “Safe Landing”, which won third place in the professional section of the same competition.
