DRUMFISH PRODUCTIONS in 2015 and 5th Art Contest!

is excited for 2015 and can’t wait to get all of our new work out there and start our convention season! Here are just some of things we have planned…
First off, this year will finally see the release of the long await SENTINELS ANTHOLOGY #2! We’re very proud of the book and hope everyone will feel it was worth the wait. There are 37 different creators involved this time. Here are just a few who are here on deviantArt:
And every one of them did an unbelievable job! The book is truly a labor of love and looks beautiful! It features solo stories on favorite SENTINELS characters that didn’t get the spotlight in the first Anthology and also has a huge story focused on the (now grown) 3rd generation SENTINELS! But that’s not all, you’ll also get to see the 1st and 2nd generation SENTINELS in action too. With only a few pages left to complete now, we hope to have this book printed in time for our first convention of 2015!


Next up, for those of you waiting patiently for NEVERMINDS #5, have no fear! The next issue of the series is action-packed and pushes everything to the climatic final issue of the first storyline. Those of you who have been following NEVERMINDS know that there have been lots of twists and turns throughout. But we’re not done yet! Jamie Fay , Danielle Alexis St. Pierre and I have a few more surprises up our sleeves! Stay tuned!

We’ll also be continuing with the release of the re-visioned and colorized version of the original SENTINELS series in digital form on Comixology ( www.comixology.com/Drumfish-Pr… ). With issue #5, Luciano Vecchio and myself were joined by the talented Ihor Loboda as colorist for the series and he has been knocking it out of the part with his contribution to the new vision of the series. Issues 6 and 7 are completed and will up on Comixology soon! Ihor is already working on issue #8! See previews on our blog or the Facebook page here: www.facebook.com/pages/Drumfis…



We have a few more things cooking, but we’ll announce them when the time is right.
But we’d like to start this year off by announcing our 5th Art Contest for Drumfish Productions here on deviantArt! We’ve been very grateful and honored with all our past contests entries! Here are the past winners….
