I'll be in Chicago this Saturday (9/19/09) for the second WINDY CITY COMICON! It's a small one-day show, but the guest list is tremendous and it's definitely geared toward fans who want to meet creators. It's put on by the great guys who do the Around Comics podcast, so you know it'll be a blast!

For more information pay, a visit to WINDYCITYCOMICON.COM!

I'll ONLY be doing $25 Sketch Cards for this event. No larger sketches or commissions.

I just wanted to go on and put an announcement out front and center that i DO NOT take Commissions on a regular basis.
I only do sketches at Conventions and Signings, and i DO NOT take sketch requests for a show beforehand.

For a full rundown on how this process works, please read the new COMMISSIONS section at the top of the site.

If you are one of the few on my old short list of commissions, things are as they were when last we talked. I am slowly working my way through them all, and i appreciate your patience.

Thank you.

August 6-9th, i'll be at the Wizard World Chicago Comic-Con.
Come visit me at Artist's Alley table #3532
check out more guests and other info on WizardWorld.com!

See you there!

I'll be in Miami this weekend for Florida SuperCon. Other guests include Bruce Campbell, Ted Raimi, Dana Snyder, Doug Mahnke, Chris Claremont, and loads more!

Click here for my complete convention schedule.

**EDITED!** The guys hosting SALON BD have informed me that a major sponsor has backed out and that they are cancelling the show. Since they were my ticket to France, all of my appearances in France this October are now CANCELLED.

sorry guys, but i had to back out of Heroes Con in Charlotte this year.

we're under contract on a new house and the closing/moving will be right near the show, and i can't handle all that on my schedule.

i hate to disappoint, and i hope everyone has a good time at the show!

I'll be at Elite Comics for a while today, for Free Comic Book Day. Others at the shop will include Jason Aaron, Jai Nitz, Kevin Mellon, Dennis Hopeless, and Travis Fox, probably more!

Swing in for some good times and free stuff!

i'll be doing free quick head sketches (nothing serious like my usual con commissions) and signing.

Click here for directions!

so 10 of the 15 sketches i did at NYCC have been sent in, and here they are! i'd like to thank everyone who came out, and i'd especially like to thank everyone who sent back pics!





















larger views are available in the Convention Sketches Gallery.

Everyone else who hasn't sent theirs back to me, i'd love to get them, and rememeber the cleaner more high-res scan you can get me, the more likely i am to include it in my art book!

So here are the down-and-dirty details of where you can find me throughout the duration of the New York Comic Con 2008.

my booth will be Booth #1569, which will be right across from Neal Adams!

Also, i will be signing at the following times:
Friday
7-8PM: DC Comics/ Vertigo

Saturday
11AM-Noon: Dark Horse Comics
4-5PM: with Claudio Sanchez @ Autograph Area Table #6

Sunday
4-5PM: DC Comics/ Vertigo

otherwise, i'll likely be at my booth, #1569, doing commissions.
they'll be $100 each and I'll only be able to do a handful every day, so if you want in on one, get there early! But to keep it fair, i'll start the list fresh every day, so if you miss your chance one day, you could catch it the next.

See you there!

Hey, gang. As most of you know, we'll be attending the New York Comic Con this year for the very first time. Kara and I are planning big, as it will be the biggest show for us this year.

So, here is where you come in. We are looking to hire one or possibly two workers to help us at the convention. The work is light and short (2-3 hours a day at most), plus you can earn some extra cash for the show! If you are interested, please fill out the questions below and email them to Kara at Artsales@tonymooreillustration.com

1. Please tell us a little about yourself and why you want to work for us.

2. What are some of your favorite comics?

3. How long will you be at the show each day?

4. Have you ever been to a comic convention before, and if so, how many?

5. Have you ever worked at a comic convention before, and if so, for whom?

6. Please tell us anything else you think would qualify you for this position.

Thanks!

Mr. Fixit for Corey


Dr. Doom for Pat


Saint of Killers for Simon

So, on March 9th, in Joplin, MO, of all places, there will be a gathering of talent that rivals many large shows across the nation. If this sounds like it's up your alley and you're in the vicinity, i highly recommend checking out the first ever HURLEYCON!



Looks to be a real winner!

thanks to Tim Snow and Mark Ramsey!

Finally got a photo of this guy! I painted this to help pull my weight, for Heroes Con's art auction. It appeared to go to a good home, but i had to cut the umbilical on this one so fast i never got a picture... that is, until just now when i saw they'd posted one over at the Heroes site!

this one's by Christoper Hoerdemann!

check out this interview by iFanboy.com, recorded on the show floor in Chicago.

and Rick liked Chad's FA sketch so much that we had John Rauch color the shit out of it and we're running it as a back cover for an upcoming issue!


See why you should send me scans? you never know, i might turn your small commission into a fancy published piece!

*Updated with event schedule!*

That time of year again, kids!
i'll be at table 5504. we'll be along the back wall of Artists' Alley, between the place you go to fill up and the place you go to dump out.

Also, thanks to everyone who sprang into action on those commissions. I posted that I had 5 spots available, and by morning the next day they were all filled. Like i've said before, i'll try to turn those out ASAP, and if possible open up another 5 in the very near future. Thanks again, everyone!

Are you ready to ROCK?

this weekend, in Charlotte, NC, i'll be at Heroes Con, in Indie Island, alongside ton of great names like Rick Remender, Eric Powell, Jeremy Haun, Chris Samnee, and Matt Fraction.

if you wanna enjoy a huge convention guest list without the stress and hassle of a huge con, I highly recommend checking this show out. It's quickly become one of my favorite shows out there.

we'll have all new buttons as well as art prints, shirts, patches, and original art, and even a limited number of The Walking Dead issue #1 first printings. And as always i'll be taking on commissions, 10 a day, so make sure to get in early and get on the list!

learn more about Heroes Con here!

Kansas City's Elite Comics is hosting a signing on JUNE 13th, to commemorate the launch of FEAR AGENT #1 from Dark Horse Comics!

There'll be signing, sketching, and all the usual antics of a signing, and they'll be selling sweet Fear Agent engraved hipflasks, which you'll have to see to believe!
