Spot the Difference - a funky, fun, eye-feast game with my art...

Hey my lovely reader!!  How are you?! :-D

It's been a while since we've chatted, hope you are having a freaky fantastic time and not been missing me too much :-P ... 

(I'm working on some very exciting stuff for you, and so haven't had a chance to say hello on my blog, but don't worry, I'll be a better blog friend).

Below is a 'Spot the Difference' game I created for a magazine out of my art (I did a couple, and if you like it, I'll share another).

See how many differences you can see (there are 10), and then scroll down to see whether you were right :-)

Your blogging friend, Dan

P.S. Feel free to Twitter me, Facebook me or Comment below to tell me how you rocked at this game and how many you spotted correctly.

Batman v Superman Fan Art ... by Daniel Grant Newton

From the desk of:
Daniel Grant Newton
DGN Productions

Okay, so it's about ten months away, but I am super excited about seeing Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.  As anyone who knows me knows, I love Batman, the Justice League and all DC Comics.  

If the movie is even half as good as the comics or DC animated movies/series, it'll probably become one of, if not my favourite movie.

So in anticipation of its release in March next year (in the USA), and in celebration of seeing the beginning of a series of live-action Justice League movies, I decided to create DC fan art for your viewing pleasure.  Plus, I just love drawing Batman, so there.

Below is the first of these pictures.  I hope you enjoy my version of Batman and Superman's epic battle, with Batman wearing a kryptonite ring because it evens the fight, makes for an epic chiaroscuro lighting effect, and...

BECAUSE HE'S BATMAN!

Freaky Freaky Fridays Crossover Episode 2 with Nik and Mike

A Shaman Sunflower summoning a fire djinn... one way to
travel inter dimensionally.  Drawn by yours truly.
Happy Friday!

In fact, happy freaky Friday.

Today I have part two of the Nik & Mike and Freaky Freaky Fridays crossover adventure.  And today's episode is a fun one :-)

(If you want to skip my introduction, I won't be offended.  The comic starts after all the words.  But be warned that if you do you'll miss all my hilariousness!)

If you missed the first episode of the crossover, you can read it at the link below:

Also, if you'd like to check out Nik & Mike, and their creator Pebbles, she has just opened a store up which has some cool merchandise like magnets, notebooks, posters and stamps.  Yep, stamps.  You can send your mail with the Nik and Mike seal of approval.

You can check the store out here: http://www.zazzle.com/nik_mike_toons

Maybe I should open a store up for Freaky Freaky Fridays.  But that might break the Internet because there would be too much freakiness.  

The Freaky factor of that would be like Friday the 13th landing on the Winter Solstice with two full moons eclipsing the sun and all the planets aligning and every wolf barking at the same time at the resonance of the Earth creating a magnetic tsunamis coming out of a vortex in the Bermuda Triangle and a million shooting stars hitting the pyramids of Egypt and every radio in the world mysteriously beginning to play Michael Jackson's Thriller.  That sort of freakiness.

... and right now I don't think we're all ready for that! :-)

Anyway, without further ado, here is the crossover episode!

Your friend, Daniel.
