HERO-CON '09 Wrap-Up

Journal Logo

I'm a couple weeks behind on this, but better late than never, right?

Wanted to post a few pics from the second annual Hero-Con, which went down October 24th and 25th at the Doubletree San Jose. A celebration of all things CITY OF HEROES, it was a blast to chat with people from the game community and to do sketches for them, and this year I had the chance to moderate a panel as well.


Sketches were available via a raffle, and we had WAY more entries than I could feasibly draw over the weekend.


Managed to draw about 15 in the end--not too shabby.


The panelists on the 'HOW TO DRESS A SUPERBEING' panel: Animator Chris Bruce, Art Lead Ken Morse, and Character Artists Jay Doherty and Cheryl Austin.


Me at the moderator's podium.


Group shot of the attendees.

Some sketches from the show:


  • Mood: Sociable
  • Listening to: IGN podcasts
  • Reading: Blackest Night, ImagineFX
  • Watching: Stargate Universe, V, Mythbusters
  • Playing: CITY of HEROES, Batman: Arkham Asylum

I love your gallery, it's AWSOME!!! The Alice in wonderland pictures are amazing!!! The art you put on Deviantart makes you look like a comic book artist ( unless you are anyway!!!) ( Ok, I think your gallery ' Zenescope cover gallery' ring's a bell)lol Hope to see more soon!!!^-^ *-*
:icondavid-nakayama:
Thank you so much! I worked as a comic book artist for around 5 years, but these days I'm doing concept art in the video game industry. Almost everything in my gallery is from a published comic book, which helps explain the style you see. Going forward, I'll probably have a lot of painted stuff to post, and I can't wait to show you guys. :)
:iconguywolfenden:
Yes, really great stuff, very sexy!
