He's made prints, he's made canvas versions, he's made a book, and he's made T-shirts (including a new muscle-tee Kaylee one). What else can Jason Palmer do with his amazing amazing character portraits?

He can make them bigger.

These are the big ones! Jumbo banner prints, measuring 24"x70". Perfect for taking up a wall or hanging on your door. Done on our Giclee printer with archival inks, on beautiful and durable Luster art paper.

Get the crews of Firefly and Battlestar Galactica, or go for individual crewmembers to fit your fancy. Available for a limited time.

And more stuff's coming; new shirt designs for Jayne, Kaylee, Serenity herself, and BabyTees. You can find out more by signing up for his newsletter.

Now we're talking. Jason Palmer is offering his amazing Firefly/Serenity artwork on T-shirts, just in time for the San Diego Comic-Con (because you didn't have enough to spend your money on, obviously).

12 designs are coming, but 3 of them can be preordered now and they'll be launched at the con (booth 4504).  Those designs are Mal (charcoal tee for men, raglan top for women), Kaylee in her party dress (pink tee or tank top), and the Big Damn Heroes (light gray crew neck for men, silver babydoll crewneck for women, with a special black version coming, with black foil Serenity logo.

And the designs… you've already seen his prints, so you know they're nothing short of amazing. Ooh, I wonder if we'll get a Joss tee! Fingers crossed, fingers crossed…

All the shirts are made of 100% combed super-soft cotton, preshrunk and tagless for comfortable wear. They come in sizes S-2XL for men and S-L for women, and can be signed by Jason on request. $25 each. Order now!

Not a sequel, as such, but Jason Palmer has finally completed his incredible Serenity portrait series and since I talked to him back when he was just getting started, I wanted to see how he was doing now that he's done. Also, I got a copy of his portrait set and I had to show you guys. It's amazing. Huge portfolio binder with the prints in acid-free sleeves so you can either take them out and hang them proudly on your wall or keep them in the binder for easy showing.

Each print has a facing page with sketches of different poses — some we've seen before, some we haven't — that really help capture the personality of each character in a way that the single portrait can't on its own (love the sleeping Jayne pic!).  But more on the set later, here's Jason talking about his work.

=======================================
You're in the home stretch! Tired of Serenity yet?

Not tired of Serenity, but I'm glad the portrait set is done, and very anxious to get to the next couple of projects, which are based on Serenity universe.

How many times have you watched the DVDs, by this point?

I have no idea… for instance, I looked at at the scenes of Book on Haven repeatedly as I was designing the Book print. So there are lots of bits and pieces, however, I'm always impressed anew at how good the series and the movie is, when I just sit down and watch it.

The final portrait of Jason Palmer's Serenity Portrait Series has been revealed, and it's a familiar face indeed.

This shrine-ready print (and the one of the Operative) is only available if you buy the complete set, but individual prints of the other 10 portraits are available in a variety of ways. There are nine portraits of the crew and one of the ship. You can order the individual 13"x19" prints as either limited edition Giclee prints (heavy stock paper) or on canvas, gallery-wrapped on museum stretcher bars. There are also some of the original paintings available. And he still has some Book portrait prints autographed by Ron Glass.

But to get the Operative and Joss you'll need to order the set. It can be ordered by itself or with a handsome silver polyethylene album with acid free page inserts and a matching carrier with shoulder strap, both featuring the Serenity logo. (Prints can be removed from the album if you'd rather frame 'em, and why wouldn't you). You also get character description pages with production sketches and quotes by Jason. Sets are available in Giclee prints or canvas.

Then there's the Collector's Album, which has everything listed above except the album is brushed aluminum with the Serenity logo on the cover, laser etched and hand painted and it comes with a matching aluminum box. You also get a one of a kind, original art pencil drawing by Jason Palmer of one of the characters (varying sizes 11×17 to 13×19).

This series represents a hell of a lot of loving work by Jason Palmer over the last few years and I think it really shows. Fill your walls with this personal tribute to the Big Damn Heroes and their universe. These are also excellent items to get signed at cons, and Jason himself shows up at more than a few. Although he might have to sleep for a few weeks now, I'm not sure…

Jason Palmer has finished the final announced portrait for his amazing Serenity Portrait Set: The Operative.

Preorders are now closed, and you have a variety of ways to get it. There are nine portraits of the crew and one of the ship. You can order the individual 13"x19" prints as either limited edition Giclee prints (heavy stock paper) or on canvas, gallery-wrapped on museum stretcher bars. There are also some of the original paintings available. And he still has some Book portrait prints autographed by Ron Glass.

However, there are two portraits that are only available if you purchase the set: the Operative and one surprise one. The set can be ordered by itself or with a handsome silver polyethylene album with acid free page inserts and a matching carrier with shoulder strap, both featuring the Serenity logo. (Prints can be removed from the album if you'd rather frame 'em, and why wouldn't you). You also get character description pages with production sketches and quotes by Jason. Sets are available in Giclee prints or canvas.

Then there's the Collector's Album, which has everything listed above except the album is brushed aluminum with the Serenity logo on the cover, laser etched and hand painted and it comes with a matching aluminum box. You also get a one of a kind, original art pencil drawing by Jason Palmer of one of the characters (varying sizes 11×17 to 13×19).

This is gorgeous work, very true to the characters with rich, textured backgrounds that provide a real sense of the character's personality. And you've got all that wall space you're not doing anything with…

Jason Palmer has just posted his new Serenity print, the 10th of his crew portrait set. Limited edition prints are now available or you can buy the original painting. Still to come: the Operative, and an as-yet-unrevealed bonus portrait.

Or you can order the limited edition set with album and carrier:

The set includes 12 Giclee textured art prints (13×19): Mal, Wash, Zoe, River, Simon, Kaylee, Jayne, Inara, Book, Serenity the ship, the Operative, and a surprise print (only available with purchase of the set). Prints are signed and numbered; limited edition of 300. Also, 12 character production sketch pages are included, as well as a title page. The set is presented in a silver polyethylene album with acid free page inserts, and a matching carrier with shoulder strap. Both feature Serenity logo. Prints can be removed from the album and framed if desired.

He's finished his Wash pictured, as, you know,  pictured, and he's off to finish the rest. The new estimated time of completion is by the end of 2007, so don't dawdle.

If you'd prefe to buy individual ones, "Wash" will be added to the store soon as a Giclee print and on canvas.

Despite delays from con appearances and a heavy workload — and yay for him for getting the recognition his talent deserves! — artist Jason Palmer is still working on his crew portraits. Here's a peek at the line drawing for his Wash painting, the latest in the set.

Still working away at his Serenity crew portraits, acclaimed fan-favorite artist Jason Palmer is now offering Giclee prints of his portrait of Book, signed by actor Ron Glass.

The print is 13"x19" (the watermark is not on the print) and runs $50. It doesn't come with a mat but one is available as an add-on and I highly recommend it. You can also order the print without the autograph or check out the other prints available here. And don't forget, if you preorder the set of all nine crewmembers plus the ship, you'll also get a bonus portrait of the Operative.
