Part IV: First Kill
Watercolor, prisma pen, and ink 4x6
A baby's first kill is one of life's precious moments...at least it is for tyrannosaurs. The joy of the kill is short-lived, however, when Micro Rex spots larger prey on the horizon. Image 4 of 6 for the Super Big Micro Show. Here are some sneak peaks at works by some fantastic contributing artists.

While I had my watercolors out to finish my Micro Gallery pieces, I did this "Happy Thanksgiving/Welcome to the World!" card for my new baby cousin, Jack (aka Jax, aka Jack-Jack). I know everyone says this about babies, but my cousin really IS the cutest kid alive. It's science.
24 days...

I really enjoy that you put a story to the pieces.
Dude - That micro Rex is awesome. You ought to make it a book...with all sorts of cool sketches in the back!
You're gonna be in this show, too?? These have absolutely too much appeal. Right up there with William Stout.
And I thought the same thing as Sam. I want a book. Seriously.
Kendra- thanks! It was a fun challenge to be as clear as possible because the real pieces are quite small, and I only had six "panels" to work with.
Sam- grazie, man. I'd love to make a Micro Rex book. If you'd like to fund me, I'm all ears!
Ryan- wow, thanks! William Stout is one of my heroes, I met him this year at Comic Con and we talked dinos for a while. The Micro Gallery work from everyone is looking great. Are you in the show?
I really wanna come to the Super Big Micro Show! How much is it to get in?
No, I'm not in the show, nor am I sure how one GETS into one of their shows. Maybe you just ask. :) Some day...
Hey Pandalope- I'm pretty sure it's free to get in and check out the work. I posted links to the Gallery webpage on each of my Micro Rex posts. You may want to check that just to be sure.
Ryan- Yeah, the gallery was sort of open to anyone in the industry. I'll get you in on the next one for sure!
