LIVE STREAM – FINAL HOURS for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2 on Crowdfundr!

Today’s live stream features the FINAL HOURS for my latest graphic novel, The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2 on Crowdfundr!

So what happens after volume 1? Who’s the Basho twin Jamie’s been talking to? What will happen to the Chief? What’s going to happen to the orb? AND WHAT’S UP WITH THE DRAGON??

There’s only one way to find out, and that’s to get The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2 on Crowdfundr. New stretch goals have been unlocked, including exclusive stickers. PLUS, you can select rare and limited edition acrylic pins as part of your rewards!

In today’s stream, we’re fundraising for the final stretch before the campaign closes! All while drawing new material for the book.

And then, we’re also talking up the next Crowdfundr campaign launching Sept 1 (the next day) – Mr. Dino Pride Keychains and Stickers, yo.

What can I say? There have been some exciting things happening with Fantasyville Productions, aka my art business.

I hope you enjoy the live stream. Thanks for watching!

You. Are. Awesome.

From Sketch to Finished: The Cover for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2

Today, I want to show a piece of art from a sketch to the finished piece. This time, it’s the cover art for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, volume 2. (It’s still on Crowdfundr, by the way! Get a pre-order of the book while you can.)

Here’s the initial sketch that I drew in 2015…

Here’s a redraw of the same sketch, drawn in 2020…

Here is final art I made for the cover art of Volume 2…

I can’t help it, I love this art.

In fact, I love it so much that I want to see how you color this. Here is a link to download the line art. If you color this, tag me on Instagram @kelcidcomics or Ko-fi @kelcidcrawford.

And don’t forget that The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2 is still on Crowdfundr! Pre-order your copy and help us reach our goals.

That’s all for now. Thank you for scrolling!

New Stretch Goals Announced for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2

I’m announcing new stretch goals for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, Volume 2 on Crowdfundr! Let’s get into them…

If we can get to 15 backers, I’ll add the Punk Rock Jamie sticker to folks who order physical copies of volume 2!

If we can get to 20 backers, I’ll add Ranki stickers for folks who order physical copies of volume 2! (Be prepared for Ranki to be a little ~steamy~ by Ko-fi standards, wink wink).

At 25 backers, I’ll add a Punk Rock Daniel sticker to bundles!

The campaign is only two-thirds of the way to our base goal. So if you have the means, back the campaign and order your books today! Any amount, from $2 to $200, helps us reach these stretch goals. And if you’re broke, share the link! Sharing is caring and it helps a lot.
