This is my first and possibly only Variant Sketch Cover I will do.  I drew this design during HawaiiCon this year while at my booth.  I was originally going to draw a shark tooth paddle style weapon on this cover then decided to read the comic.  After reading the book I decided to change my design to make it reflect the story better.  This blank issue was given to me by author, artist, and creator of PineappleMan, Sam Campos.  I used Micron pens and Copic markers to finish the design.

Going for Broke is a painting made based on my experiences skateboarding.  I chose to represent a skeleton skateboarding because it amplifies the vulnerability of our bodies.
