Steph-

Heck yes, I sculpt in wax now, but I'd pull out some sculpey and wrestle with it for a cause like that. (Unless you'd want it in wax so you can make copies...something to think about...who knows what could happen)

Anyhoooo...take care Steph, we'll talk.
Keep up the great work, along with that chin. (I'm having a hard time myself with the chin thing lately, but hey, tomorrow's another day)

Thank you guys! Just popping in to post my Nibru contributions and to the fact that I will be at table 210 at APE this weekend.

Well, that and I finally got around to marketing Tampii! I'll be selling the panties among other things at my booth and I since have begun the incredible journey of trademarking. Lawyers are fun. If my sales go well this weekend, I will get a second design to print and begin work on the plushies. Fingers crossed that I come home APE without any panties!

Thanks for looking!

a cool , good to me back here , do you use illustrator or photoshop to vectorize them ?

btw love the nibru , he's so funny looking ^^

**Texahol** · October 17th, 2009, 04:22 AM

Fingers crossed that I come home APE without any panties!

**AestheticMachine** · November 3rd, 2009, 12:59 AM

I love how colorful and happy your work is

Looking forward to more!

**Steph Laberis** · November 17th, 2009, 03:27 PM

AestheticMachine: Thank you so much!

Texahol: False alarm. I still had panties.

Giorge: Thank you! I use Illustrator for all of my vector work and then texture them up in Photoshop. I'm betting it's easier to do it all in Photoshop but I am so used to Illustrator that I don't want to change ^_^;;

So, a dump of more creatures I did towards the beginning of the year. I also wanted to point out that I will be at the CTN Expo this weekend in Burbank, showin' mah stuff, doing live art demos and giving oodles of free crits away! I hope to see some CAers there!

I will be at table 22, just FYI

Hi Steph.

I'll be wandering around the Expo this weekend. It'd be great to meet you after following (and loving) your sketchbook for so long.

**Jason Snair** · November 17th, 2009, 04:18 PM

excellent update!

I really love the value ranges you're getting lately - and your color choices are quite awesome as well.

Loving the wasp series of characters.

**Caledonian** · November 17th, 2009, 07:59 PM

**0kelvin** · November 18th, 2009, 02:45 PM

You're getting me in the mood to do some Insect Battle art. It's been so long! Those wasps are awesome. Cutest larvae ever!

**BlightedArt** · December 12th, 2009, 08:22 PM

Hi Steph, do you have skype or msn?

I'm a cartoonist that also uses Adobe Illustrator, and thought it would be worthwhile keeping in closer contact with people in a similar area, if that's cool?

Love your work.

**theUNKNOWNsketcher** · December 13th, 2009, 08:02 AM

uber cool characters!

**Knarf** · March 5th, 2010, 03:53 PM

I was just thinking of you Steph! Not in the creeper way, but just about your work. I just started learning vectoring in illustrator, hope to gain more insight from you/your works. The biggest question is how to achieve a texturing effect like yours? Is it thru opacity masks and the stacking of it? Thanks, and please do update soon

-Frank

**BlightedArt** · March 17th, 2010, 05:32 AM

Blimey, is Steph still about?

**Scotty** · April 19th, 2010, 08:22 AM

I see that you're still kickin' butt Steph! You're work is always cheerful, and has a life of it's own. How can someone NOT smile when viewing this stuff.

I haven't forgotten about sculpting one of your characters for ya either. We'll have to work something out sometime when there's time for it.
I can imagine your art style really working when it comes to my Kalem and Absalon characters.

Keep goin'!

**Odayga** · June 7th, 2011, 05:29 PM

Really liking where your work has gone over the years! Hope to see more from you on here soon!

**Rhubix** · August 7th, 2011, 03:40 PM

I adore your style! There were a few loaves of bread a few pages back that made my day!
