More line art

Cleaning up. and more to do today. I will start the design of the secret site for the game, the 1 month added. I started a page last night, but was not able to finish. Hopefully, this weekend I will get an opportunity to close out Issue#2

In the Groove

With just a little time last night, I penciled another page. At this rate, I'll be done with the pencils and inks for issue #2 and move onto the coloring and lettering! Very pleased, but then of course its move onto issue #3....

Nice!

Got THREE pages done last night. I can see an improvement in my art the more I work, which is natural. So, I'm in the final stretch of issue #2. I have some of the most challenging scenes coming up, but that's OK. I'm happy with the progress. Did not check the scanner, but will do so tonight. Will work on one of the subsites today, those are wrapping up. I am also considering extending the A RG before the pub of the book to get the word out on the comic to create buzz. I don't know how much lead time I need to get orders placed.

Comic book Update

Is anybody even reading this? Probably not. But to update, I finished another page, SO, its coming along, coming along. Tonight I expect to get at LEAST one page done. It looks like I am going to have to scan in pieces, which I hate. Worked on another part of the website, password protected in flash, which will make it much harder to crack.

Progress!

Got some nice work done this weekend, I addition to tidying up the old studio, got TWO pages done, pencils and inks! So art wise I'm 2/3rds through issue #2 I guestimate. Still no joy from the scanner. Sigh. I can't afford one of those high-end large format scanners. I do NOT understand why in this day, they are not cheaper.

Frustrated

My large format scanner seems to have decided to stop working for the time being. I was planning on scanning my pages and start to clean up line art for issue#2, but that will have to wait, or else I can scan them in pieces (echhh) and put them together in photoshop. Either way frustrating. BUT I have found some nifty flash code for logins to two of the websites. So, that should be pretty darn cool.

Website Update AND Comic Book Update

Progress on the most difficult game site is going MUCH faster than I thought and I think its going to look pretty sweet when I'm done. I have a list of puzzles and riddles to choose from. I am very glad I made a comprehensive chart of all the links and how the game and comic relate to each other or else I know I would be lost. Planning counts. Drew some replacement panels. I will scan them in tonight. This afternoon I will gather reference for some scenes I am drawing.

Update

Wrote another article for website. I think I have enough now for the game. I can always add more if I need. Researching puzzles and codes to create my own for challenges. I will work on another game site flash website starting this afternoon and work on the comic book tonight! Bringing in scans this week to clean up and color for issue#2.

Update

Had a wedding to go to that monopolized a lot of free time, got some writing done, no pencils. Will pencil and ink tonight, scan in pages for production So I can start issue #2 this week. I did finish the questions for the OddJobs test. this week I'll try making the form so I can get that site up and running soon.

Update

Sadly, not much to report other than prelim sketches for some ideas for the game/comic book.

Oh yeah!

Got the postcard from Xeric saying they got my submission, and everything they need for the grant is in order. Pretty cool. It somehow feels real now, like I am in the running. Silly, I know. I really really want this, but when has that ever made things happen. I have to keep up my motivation and drive to finish this.
