    Great sketch, Steven. Look forward to the book. I worked in a school library for a long time, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading books written for young people. Agnes xx

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks Agnes! The first draft of the book is almost completed and for the most part I’m pleased. There’s still a lot of things that need to be reworked, but that’s why it’s called a first draft, no? ;)

    A great drawing Steven, so well composed and full of contrast from strength to vulnerabillity.

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks Brian, I appreciate that. I sort of rushed through certain parts of this one, but overall it’s not bad. I tried leaving a good deal of open space in case I want to work in text down the line.

    You are a bit of a robot yourself my friend … how long does a drawing like this take?

  • Steven Novak replied

    This one took about three days. The only thing that took any real time was the damn armor on the bad guy. PAIN IN THE REAR!! ;)

  • AnitaInverarity

    That looks great Steven- I LOVE the detail on the armour x

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks! Ya, the armor was a pain in the patoot, but I think it came out looking pretty good. Hey…patoot is a fun word to type. ;)

    OMG .. I just really LOVE LOVE LOVE your work Steven !!!!
    Your characters are so personable and vivatious …..... Will you do me the honor of letting me purchase one of the books when finished with an autograph maybe ????

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks Naylor! Means a lot. As for purchasing a copy…NO NEVER!! HOW DARE YOU ASK SUCH A THING!!?? The nerve…the unmitigated nerve…
    Obviously I am kidding. ;)

    Awesome Steven! : ) I’m a little worried about how he’s going to get out of this fix! ..Is he trying the dreaded Crane move from the Karate kid? lol Wen x

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks Wen! The kid has some tricks up his sleeve, even if they are short. ;)

    Love this Steven… Cant wait to see the other in this series…

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks Rosemaree! Not sure if there will be any others in the series. The book is a novel. I’m debating whether or not I want to do any illustrations inside, but I think I’ll work on finding a publisher first. ;)

    Cool work! Great to hear there’s a novel involved!

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks Damian! I’m pretty pleased with the way the novel is shaping up thus far. There’s still work to be done, but for the most part it’s not too shabby. ;)

    Super cool!

    Steven I hope the young guy knows a bit of kung foo, his opponent looks a bit ferocious.

  • Steven Novak replied

    No kung fu, but he’s a smart cookie. Plus, you know the old saying, “the bigger they are, the smaller the brain” ;)

  • Marion  Cullen

    Marion Cullen

    Excellent work. That bad guy sort of looks somewhat familiar.

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks! He’s a bad dude…all bad dudes look alike…it’s part of being a bad dude. ;)

    Thanks!

  • Cathryn Swanson

    Great sketch Steven, the detail in the bad dude’s armour is fantastic.

  • Steven Novak replied

    Thanks Cathryn! Ya, the armor was a pain on a monumental scale. There was a time in my youth when I LOVED doing work like that – not so much in my old age. ;)

  • Agnes McGuinness

    Agnes McGuinness

    That is indeed why, Steven. (Got the spelling right). It looks like a book I would love to read. Agnes:))
