Hello Everyone.

It still feels odd to make these updates without Jim. Hello everyone, the art for the Bed Pillows has been found and are currently being inked by Sanny Folkesson. Sanny (Who has a patreon https://www.patreon.com/sanny and is on FA http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15664765/) is helping out in a big way with the inking and finishes on some of the work that was incomplete. He will also lend his inking talent to a few of the last pages of the SKUNKSWORKS collection and any other possible works outside those when the files are sent over.

Since November of last year, I was on and off helping Jim's family locate all his works. We believe we found everything we can for the SKUNKWORKS collection, and might do a follow up book containing sketches and Short stories, with the possibility of Producing Caterwaul through Angry Viking Press as he had intended in the future. Penance might not continue as those pages where given to a friend shortly after his passing however we're working to see if something sill can be done. All art outside of those requested by commissioners for replacements will eventually go up on auction. As you can imagine its a little hard for his family seeing his work getting ready to go, but it will be as per James' request. His websites will be reactivated by his family when the auctions start for those wishing to participate.



Production on the FEL and ARTICA figures was delayed all last year as the Toy company had to change production factories. They assure us FEL should be ready by SDCC or shortly after.
I should be receiving a few Prototypes soon, some of which will be of course going to Kenno himself.

Shawntae Has been finishing up ORIGINS 3-6 and EXTINCTIONERS #18 which also includes the final part of ARCTIC BLUE, the Artica special. From there IDW's Josh Perez will color much of, if not All of Origins 3-6, EXTINCTIONERS 7-15, ARCTIC BLUE/EXTINCTIONERS #18. ANDOROZON:PANDORAS BOX continues to progress with John Alvarez and Ken Singshow.


AKASAKA-san while just finishing up a Eric Sill Poster is getting ready to work on IRINA: THE COLD WARRIOR:
And Diepod is plowing through SENGOKU VALKYRIE. You can see more updates to these and all of our other series on our Tumblr and Facebook pages.

Some of you may know that we were offered a Cameo opportunity in a movie last year. While only I could make it to the movie shoot, a lot of our artists sent material to be used in the movie. The Collected SKUNKWORKS book and the Sheets where just some of the things we had hoped to get screen time in the movie. Unfortunately that was not to be the case, but thanks to Jim's family we where able to bring a few poster copies with us on to the set.



The movie we are slated to appear in is TED 2, which will be in theaters this May and June. Now that the first trailer has been out for three weeks we can finally start talking about it. We're still not sure if our scenes will be used, however our set up managed to get several minutes of screen time during the filming near the climax of the movie and are highly visible, assuming our scenes were not cut. Hopefully some of Jim's art makes it in as well.


More to come later... (if we're not cut)

Can't talk much about the movie just yet or what our role (if any) plays a part in this movie... Because LOL don't want to get sued, nor can we show any other more interesting photos just yet (and yes some of the production staff gave us the ok to take these and afew more photos as long as the more "INTERESTING" ones don't go up before the movie is released)

We're working to get the Toys and the last comics all ready by the movie's release and are even trying to see about getting SKUNKWORKS listed in Diamond's Previews comic catalog. This may be difficult since Diamond has a history of not being to friendly to furry comics, especially of adult nature, but if Diamond does consider listing the SKUNKWORKS book we'll need a strong showing of at least 700 sales. Now 700 books sold may sound like a low number, but Anthro comics have always been a niche market, so be sure to keep a look out and spread the word.

Trying to get SKUNKWORKS listed in Diamond won't effect those of you who have already pre-orderd with your Kickstarter pledge. But for those of you that missed out on the Kickstarter and would like to get any of the SKUNKWORKS Pillows, Posters and the huge Collected book, they will be made available to you as well after the original orders are completed, and we will be happy for your support. All profits will go to Jims family.

We also have new plans for SWIPE and EVIL DIVA and DRAGON LAST

Thank you for your time and continued support.
