A Mob of Meerkats 6

At long last, we have come to the final meerkat. Construction meerkat has a lot of heavy lifting to do, but I am setting my stylus down for a minute.

Have no fear! I will not abandon this blog for months on end. Not any time soon, anyway. Later today or early tomorrow I will share the project I did this week (marker on foam core) and by the end of next week I hope to share pages from my new comic book, Bonnie Jo Campbell Comics Volume 5.

Can you believe how many meerkats I crammed into this sticker? Originally it was a more diverse group of creatures, to wit, a kangaroo, a llama, a panda, an elk, a sloth, and an ostrich, all wearing cool Black Rock Desert garb, but the client requested…moar meerkats in lab coats.

The name of this vehicle is the Databeast and it’s a real truck, somewhere.

My poor, neglected blog!

I’ve been diverting 100% of my creative energy into the new comic book since October but it is still tantalizing in the Zeno’s paradox of incompletion. Very close. SURELY by next month. Unless I break both my hands or fall into a coma or die, it HAS to be done by next month. I just have to finish one interior page and the front cover, inside and outside and also start and finish the back cover, inside and out.

So close.

I took a little break over the last week or so for this small commission of a series of 6 stickers featuring a meerkat in a lab coat at Burning Man.

So that’s what this is: 1 of 6. I’ll try to post them every day until you have experienced the complete adventures of Census Meerkat. And pretty soon after that you can watch this space for Bonnie Jo Campbell Comics Volume 5.
