2022 Con Schedule

I’m not exactly sure where the year is going but it’s somehow already April, which, in Kansas, means there are only a few more weeks of winter. That also means it’s the start of Con Season! This summer will see my long-awaited return to Salina, as well as my debut at Fountain City. More shows may be announced but for now, here’s what we got:

Planet Comicon – April 22-24

Salina Comic Con – July 16-17

Fountain City Con – July 30-31

Slash and Bash Film Festival – August 26-27

Freestate Comic Con – September 10

Air Capital Comic Con – November 5-6

Pre-show commissions are currently open for Planet Comic Con! Slots are limited so get your requests in now! See details and prices here

[UPDATE] New Year, Same Site

Since it’s just a few weeks until my first con of 2020 I wanted to provide my schedule of upcoming shows, as well as my standard price list.  If you’re not able to attend any of the cons but would like to commission something you can always hit me up on the Twitters @cameronkieffer, the Instas @cameron.kieffer, message me on the Book of Faces or just email me directly at cameron.kieffer@gmail.com.

These last two are brand new sketch cards, currently in progress, featuring Deadpool’s newest co-stars Cable and Domino. I plan to have these two cleaned up and colored by the time I catch the film this weekend. Have a great week!

#FanArtFriday – X-Men

Happy Friday, everybody! I decided to use this space to unveil some of my finished pieces, though a couple of these you may have seen before via Twitter or Instagram. I started working on these last fall for Inktober and just now got around to finishing the backgrounds. The theme of this series was “80’s Era X-Men”, using characters and costumes from the classic Claremont/Byrne run of “Uncanny X-Men.” I may add a few more eventually but I’ve already started on a series inspired by their early 90’s series, my personal favorite era since that was when I first discovered the Merry Mutants.

The below pieces were inked and colored using a combination of Microns, Prismacolors, Copic markers and multiliners.

Throwback Thursday: Guardians of the Galaxy

In honor of Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2 being released, this week’s TBT is my original Sanrio-inspired print, featuring the now-famous characters in their original comic book designs.  Below is the black & white inked piece, followed by the full-color version, which was completed with Copic markers.

Throwback Thursday: Hellboy

This week’s TBT is everyone’s favorite grouchy, red-skinned, gunslinging paranormal investigator/monster puncher Hellboy!  It’s only a couple years old and one of my first attempts at a full-scale drawing colored in Copics.  The streakiness is a little off-putting but I’m still fairly pleased with that fire.  Might be time to pull out this gem and clean it up in time for Planet Comicon next week, where Hellboy himself, Mr. Ron Perlman will be in attendance!

Throwback Thursday: Hulk

In honor of the Hulk’s “incredible” new look in the Thor: Ragnarok trailer, this week’s TBT is Hulk in his gladiator armor from the uber-popular “Planet Hulk” storyline, from which Thor’s new flick seems to be borrowing in certain respects.

This sketch was done completely in pencil back in 2007. You can check out the trailer here to see how they compare.

Throwback Thursday: Daryl

Welcome back! This week’s throwback is yet another early sketch cover, this time  depicting everyone’s favorite crossbow-wielding, walker-killing, sleeve-loathing redneck Daryl Dixon! This was just the first of many Walking Dead sketch covers I’ve done and the shading is…rough to say the least but it still has a special place in my heart.

Throwback Thursday: The Rocketeer

Hello all and welcome to another installment of Throwback Thursday or as I call it “Recycle Old Drawings Day”!  This week I’ve posting the original pencil sketch of the Rocketeer I did years ago before transforming it into one of my first (and, to date, most popular) prints.
