I'm a bad person...

...for not updating this blog more often. It's not that I haven't been doing artwork; I think I posted four TCC (Tetsuko Cosplay Calendar) since the last entry, and maybe some other stuff.

And now that I've finally completed a big commission job (one that I'll be at liberty to tell you about very shortly), I think I'll be able to produce and show more.

For now, here are two new Tetsuko illustrations I've posted at my deviantART site:


Tetsuko - by the pool


Tetsuko - floating

New Tetsuko Cosplay Calendar - September 2009

After coming down with some sort of creeping crud that derailed the TCC (Tetsuko Cosplay Calendar) for August, I'm back with the wallpaper/desktop for September:


TCC September 2009 - 1

Enjoy!

Finally, a new Tetsuko page

I wish I could crank these out faster, I really do.

Anyway, here's Page 27 of "Fight! Mighty Muscle Girl".

www.tetsuko.com is now live!

For a few years now, I've registered the domain names tetsuko.com and satinsteele.com, intending one day to use those as the URLs for dedicated web sites for these two characters. Finally, last night, I bit the bullet and set up web hosting for the Tetsuko domain.

For right now, there's only a notice saying that the content at the current Tetsuko site will be moved to the new digs soon, and linking back to the current site here and to my page at deviantART. But it's a promising start, I think.

So go check out Tetsuko's new website! (what there is of it...)

New drawings at deviantART

I'm still trying to get back in the habit of posting notices here of new art that I've posted at my deviantART page; it's been so long since I've done so that I'm out of the habit.

(The main reason I post here is to let new and infrequent visitors to this site know that I'm still active, even if this site doesn't get updated very frequently. About the only new art I post here are new panels to my comics, especially Tetsuko.)

Anyway, here's the rundown on what I've done since the last blog update:

Two versions of my latest rendition of one of my favorite cartoon females, Tara from The Herculoids


Tara Attacks - cartoon style by *dcmatthews on deviantART


Tara Attacks - fan art by *dcmatthews on deviantART

And three - count 'em, THREE! - desktops/wallpapers for June in the "Tetsuko Cosplay Calendar" series:

Tetsuko as Tara (yes, I still wanted to draw Tara)


TCC June 2009 - 1 by *dcmatthews on deviantART

(and a NSFW "outtake" from that session...)

Tetsuko as Princess Ariel (no, not the one from The Little Mermaid, the one from Thundarr the Barbarian


TCC June 2009 - 2 by *dcmatthews on deviantART

And finally, Tetsuko as Daphne from the Scooby-Doo series, with Sonya Gannon as Velma


TCC June 2009 - 3 by *dcmatthews on deviantART

And I'll try to stay more current in my postings.

New Tetsuko panels!

The redesign of this site is not the only thing I've been working on... I've also managed to finish, not only the rest of page 25 of Tetsuko #2, "Fight! Mighty Muscle Girl", but page 26 as well!

Page 25 will open in a new window, then just click "Next Page" to get to the, um, next page.

And if you're wondering "Who is this 'Tetsuko' and what the hork is going on?", then start here.

New front page design!

I just got tired of the plain-vanilla temporary home page you've been seeing for the past year(s)... so this afternoon I got an inspiration for a new design, and spent the rest of the day creating the graphics and links.

If you're following my my deviantART page, that will still be the best source of news about updates to this site; although I'll also try to put a notice on this blog as well.

Hope you enjoy the new design. Soon... the long=threatened redesign of the Tetsuko page!
