Couple of web banners for Xmoor Studios...

Welcome to the Official GoldMane Entertainment News blog!!!
Starting today I will be using this blog page for all news updates and info for my company GoldMane Entertainment (and Xmoor Studios!).

The NEWS button on my Goldmane website will send everyone here starting asap - this is a much faster way for me to add information since I have so many things planned for 2008 and want to post up sneak peeks of works in progress, tutorials, 2D artworks, shows I'll be attending and all my Xmoor Studios (indie comic book publishing company that publishes Galtow) endeavours as well. There will hopefully be some big changes and happenings for GoldMane in 2008 (and Xmoor Studios too!)

Just want to say thanks to all my friends, clients, associates and family for their unwavering support in 2007. It was a interesting year for me as I got to break out and do some of the things
I always wanted to do artistically for a very long time now.
On that, I'll close with my favorite phrase:

"Passion...will build you bridges from nowhere - to somewhere..."

My second art jam over at DWdeathwish's page on Deviantart. I did the Yellow Jacket (blue arrow). I have one more jam I did based on SpiderMan's villian's that I'll post soon as it goes up. Art jams are fun when you have time for them.

I finally took part in a art jam over at Deviant art (months ago...) trying to get back to drawing more often lately. I did the tiny Atom drawing on the bottom right. Just want to say thanks to DWDeathWish for the invite to jam with him and his crew...now to shake the rust off...

My Darkseid bust painted up by the uber talented Rick Cantu. Wait till you see what we got comin up next...

The first wave of Tales of the Haunted - Revenant busts are here and ready to ship!!! Each bust comes in all grey resin (some assembly required) with a signed Certificate of Authenticity signed by artist creator Dave Flora and myself as sculptor and each will have a mini step by step sculpt booklet showing the bust being sculpted in various stages to finish. Check the info

Off to the painter!

Harriet and her son Buzz Carney made their debut at the San Diego Comic Con at the DKE Toys booth. For more info on these toys check out www.carnivalcartoons.com and Jared Deal's blog:

The Revenant in color!!!
Doug McCord is the first to take a shot at painting up a Revenant bust - and as you can see from the results he was not fooling around (great job Doug!!!)...this is the first of many different color schemes to come for this bust. Since it's a "paint it yourself" garage kit who knows what will show up down the road.
