Craddock Invades MoCCA!

Hey dudes! Just wanted to let everybody know that I'll be volunteering this Saturday at the MoCCA Art Festival. I'll be one of the few lucky artists who will be doing commissioned work at the Museum's Artist Sketch Tables from 2 - 4 PM. All proceeds go to benefit the Museum of Comic and Cartooning Art, so bring your ideas... and lots of cold hard cash!

Also, check out some of the artwork I'm exhibiting in the NeoIntegrity Show (now on display in the Museum's main gallery from March 12th - May 30th). Enjoy!

Stone Rabbit the Cake!

Hey gang! Now you can eat that smile clean off of his face! Here's a sweet picture of a lovely cake made by my amazingly talented sister-in-law Karen Frederica Masri Craddock! It was (<-- notice the past tense) a coconut-flaked vanilla cake with lemon and lime pudding filling (all homemade). She made this in celebration of Easter Sunday... and some other good news... Stay tuned!

Still Working Hard!

Hey dudes! Sorry it's been forever and a day since my last posting, but I've just been super busy with work. I've finally finished up book 5 of the Stone Rabbit Book Series, titled "Ninja Slice", which is slated to come out on September 28th, 2010.

Also, I'm going to be exhibiting art as part of the NeoIntegrity show at MoCCA this spring! It's going to be more of  a salon type show than anything else (as in floor to ceiling with art) so you might have to search for my stuff if you ever happen to stop by the museum. All the same, I consider it a great honor to be among some of the best and brightest in the industry. Also, book 4: Superhero Stampede, is coming out later this month on March 23rd. So keep your eyes peeled, and I'll keep making my hands doodle the night away! :)

Stone Rabbit the Board Game!

Hey gang! It's a new year, and that means all new fun! That said, I bring you Stone Rabbit the Board Game! Feel free to click on the image below to download the full size version off of Suvudu.com.

To play you'll need a 6 - sided dice, and a marker of some sort (a penny, a pawn, your favorite lego character, etc.)

Simply print out the game board on an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper.

Take turns rolling the dice and moving your character along to the finish line by following the directions on the squares that you land on. Have fun!

P.S. The image is going to look real big on your screen because it's high a DPI setting, but it prints out beautifully on 8 x 10. Enjoy!

To The Moon! with the Fuzzy Lemons!

Hey gang! Just wanted to let everone know that I finished up some really great art for one of the finest kid-friendly bands in the metropolitan area called The Fuzzy Lemons. I designed the album art and a comic book based on their title song "To The Moon!" which should be released on December 5th. Feel free to head over to their website to read more about it, and remember... stay fuzzy!

Author Appearance @ Buffalo Comic Con This Saturday!!

Hey dudes,

     Just wanted to shout out to everyone that I'll be at the Buffalo comic con this Saturday, October 24th! I'll be signing books, doing drawing demos, teaching kids about comic-making and character creation, and take part in a panel discussing the animation and cartooning industry alongside of cartooning great Alex Simmons of Scooby-Doo and Archie Comics fame. Doors open at 10 AM - Be there or be square!

Best,

Craddock!

Greetings People of Earth!

Hey gang! Well, it's official, I've finally crawled out of my radioactive fallout shelter miles below the earth's crust and joined the rest of civilization by creating my very own blog!.. Though the reality is that I'm just too darn lazy to repeatedly update and repost my blog/news section on my website, so I thought this would be a far better/ relatively painless solution. So... why do I do this besides shaving a few hours off of my life that I'll never get back no matter how hard I try? Simple: self-promotion and letting people know that I'm still alive and kicking out work, why else!?

There's a lot of good things buzzing around in my life. Deep Space Disco (the third SR book) was released recently, on September 8th, and already sales are looking good. The fourth one is coming out March 23rd, 2010 (<--and yes, I know how weird it is to write 2010) and I'm currently working on books 5 and 6. So I am one busy beaver.

Keep checking back here every so often, as I hope to keep you all up-to-date on my mad journeys through the wonderful world of publishing. Take care, and looking forward to the next post!

Best,

Craddock!
