Yoda convention sketchbooks

An ongoing series of theme sketchbooks (4" x 6" Pentalic "Modeskines" - I highly recommend this brand) begun in 2007 at Comic-Con International in San Diego and continued at various other comics events (including Emerald City Comicon in Seattle, Stumptown Comics Fest in Portland OR, MoCCA Art Festival in NYC, Alternative Press Expo in SF and various events at the Fantagraphics Bookstore & Gallery). Idea swiped from co-worker Jacob Covey, whose theme is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I'm incredibly grateful, of course, to all the contributing artists for their awesome generosity.
