Thanks for checking back in on a late Weds. edition of concept Wednesdays!

This is the final Speqtors post ( for now) and the cover for our one sheet. As you can see it depicts our ghost busting family in a quiet moment before the proverbial storm.

From left to right: Edwin: Dad skeptic and scholar. Sydney: Mom worlds most powerful pshycic. Ben: fashionista. Claire: heart of the family, also her sweater is possessed with the soul of a 1000 year old kungfu master.

Got any questions or comments? Feel free to write back int he comments section below or shoot me an email at jorge@jlacera.com

Check in next week for more art and concepts!

Concept Wednesday: Meet the Speqtors Part 2!

It's Wednesday and you know what that means!

Here is another concept showing the youngest member of the Speqtor family, Claire, meeting up for a play date with a ghost friend of hers... you know, like kids do.

The Speqtors takes place in the historic town of Miskatonic, Mass. I knew from the get go that I did not want it to look like other shows on tv (saturated colors, no variation in tone, heavy black outlines etc.) so I opted to go with a richer color palette, with limited bright colors acting as accents. I wanted the Speqtors to literally bring color and life to the dreary dead township.

Hope you dig it, and as always comments are REALLY appreciated. I'll be posting more Speq stuff next Weds.


Cheers!

Starting today Wednesdays on Random Bits will be known as "Concept Wednesdays" Where I'll be posting bits and pieces of artwork done for the various comic/television/film pitch ideas I've developed over the past few years.

I'm kicking it off with a piece I did for an animated television show concept I'm developing with my fiancee, Megan Newcomer, known as The Speqtors!

The Speqtors are a family of ghost hunters, in Hollywood-ese I'd describe it as the Royal Tenenbaums meets Ghostbusters with a dash of Incredibles for good measure.

This shot shows one of the Kids, Ben, riding his bike home, completely oblivious to his deceased neighbors.

I'll be posting more images of the Speqtors soon as well as some other goodies so stay tuned!
