My brother, T.J. May has a story in Best New Werewolf Tales. The story is Unlucky Moon, first featured in Shroud Magazine with illustrations by me. I don't think my illustrations are in the book, but the story is a good read if you like horror! Go check it out.

The bundle is there to support The Hero Initiative, an organization that creates a safety net for comic creators. I noticed that King Tractor Press also put Mr. Phelps Space Detective (a book I drew) in there. Check out all the titles. Almost $100 worth of digital content for $20.

I took care of two of the three Swass Adventures books in terms of coloring, did various projects for friends, built a longboard skateboard, illustrated at least two stories in Shroud Magazine and was approached to sign at various events and requested to do a gallery show in 2012. I'm looking forward to this year. I originally planed starting work on my own properties after I finished coloring Swass Adventures, but if things go well, I'll have an announcement soon for a new gig. Stay tuned. If the project falls through you'll be seeing a lot more Jason May artwork com ]]><![CDATA[Black Friday - Original Robot Artwork and Comic Bundles]]>Thu, 24 Nov 2011 17:30:10 -0800http://www.jasonmay.com/1/post/2011/11/black-friday-original-robot-artwork-and-comic-bundles.html

I would like to share a few reasons why I have been gone. The first big and awesome reason is that I've been working on my 2011 Robot Coloring Book. Many of you have already purchased it and I thank you. Please tell your friends.

I am also working on Swass Adventures as their colorist for their three part mini series. Just this week I found out that they were able to get Chris Giarousso of Mini Marvels to do a pinup for the book. It came out awesome!

Besides artwork and guitars, my interests also lye in cars. Recently I was given a 1981 Fiat Spider. Many of you know by reading my posts that I work with a lot of different materials, which makes working on the Fiat a lot of fun. You can learn more about my Fiat adventures by visiting my Fiat blog.

Last but not least, I am a family man. Which means all of my spare time outside of building guitars, drawing robots, coloring comics and refurbishing old cars goes to my four kids, my wife and house. I recently have been battling our family car which was suffering from massive amounts of automotive ailments. Twenty-six hours and a can of Bondo-o later, the van seems to be okay. So, with any luck, I hope to be plastering this site with new work.

Please, PLEASE stay tuned. After Hero Envy Swass Adventures is finished I plan on having some serious ME time in the world of art. Look for new personal projects coming up in 2012. What could it be? Comics? Kickstarter? Kids books? More coloring books? Come back and find out! ]]><![CDATA[$10 Original Robot Art Availabe NOW! - Limited Time]]>Mon, 07 Nov 2011 09:05:09 -0800http://www.jasonmay.com/1/post/2011/11/10-original-robot-art-availabe-now-limited-time.html

I'd like to get my original art from my Robot Coloring Books into homes. There's no sense in letting it sit around my studio in a pile. I want it to be seen and I know you want to see it. For a limited time, I'm offering up all the original art from those books for ten dollars per illustration. If you want to buy two, three or more, let me know. I'm charging $5 for shipping. Combine that on as many pieces as you'd like. How can you beat $45 for four pieces of original inked art? Sent to your door! Head over to my facebook page now to check things out and shoot me an email if you want to stake a claim on a page. Thanks folks.

I took a trip down to 7PLY skateshop in Westerly RI yesterday to investigate long boards. We've decided that we'd like to try and build out own boards out of baltic birch veneer and press them in one of our shops.

Being a graphic artist, the first thing I started thinking about was the shape and graphic of the board I will be creating. While we're looking at longboards, I am looking into my skater past as some of the illustrations used on vintage boards. Here are a few pieces that I LOVED when I was a growing little grom.

I haven't skated in years. Since I don't have any freestyle skills left it is my opinion that I need to become a cruiser. I do still surf and bodyboard quite a bit, so I'd like to work on my balance. A longboard is a great way to work on my balance. I will more than likely try and sell a few boards on this site in order to cover some of the set up costs. If you start seeing me post some awesome pics of boards and you decide you might want one, please inquire via the contact page. As you can guess, I'll probably have a robot theme on my first board.
