OK, so, for those of you who don't follow me on Facebook and Twitter, any and all commissions folks are waiting on will be shipping THIS Friday for the exception of anything being done on Saturday nights "Commissions to Order" show. After this weekend, I will have a completely clean commission slate for the first time in a bit more then 4 years. I'm pretty excited about. Especially since I'll likely be starting the new year with a series of NEW PSC's (Personal Sketch cards) as well as, sad to say, a slight raise in my pricing. It's just one of those things, folks, it's got to be done.

OK, as for something I mentioned above...

DETAILS FROM MY SITE (so please excuse the 3rd person):

The special will be my normal 8.5″ x 11″ Color card stock, Single character commissions, normally $40, will be reduced to $30! On top of THAT, if you buy 3, you get one FREE AND FREE SHIPPING!!!

Event will start at 4pm PT and will run until the requests stop coming in or Tom gets tired… whichever comes first!

For this event, Tom WILL take a list in advance, but payment will NOT be due until the start of the Broadcast as the art will not be done until the broadcast starts. Send ALL Requests to Tom for these preorders (Subject line “$40’s for $30″ ) to tom@tomhodges.com . Depending on how the day is going, Tom MAY start as early as 3pm PT, so check the USTREAM channel [link]

See ya then!

You should know, just as a head's up, as of January 1st, $40 sketches go up to $50. So this would be a good time to jump on them!

I'm going to have an impromptu "Commission to Order" tonight. 9pm PT

I will have a pretty cool special running, have to tune in to find out!

Here's all the info you'll need to know on what I'll be offering: [link]

This week on starwars.com is "Zombie Week" in celebration of the release of "Death Troopers", the first Star Wars Horror novel (which I've heard from a Horror nut over at Lucasfilm is REALLY good). I was asked to contribute a piece of art for the website to help with the push.

[link] is where you can see it as well as read my little blurb.

Really enjoyed doing it.

This weekend is the Alternative Press Expo (APE) in San Francisco at The Concourse (620 7th Street
San Francisco, CA). I'll be there at Table 224B. It's a chance to promote myself and my own creations (MidKnight, "m") as well as just meet a whole new bunch of people who enjoy comics and art.
