updates, sketches, and thanks

updates, sketches, and thanks published on No Comments on updates, sketches, and thanks

In an effort to keep the trend of comic updates going, a new page! Hooray!

I have been spending a bit of my free time lately sketching pages for further on into this chapter to ensure a steady buffer and keep the updates coming. There is a lot more here to plan for than I remembered in this part of the story, but that’s what makes it fun.

I am having fun being more quick and loose with the art this time around. It feels really nice to work this way, though I’m not sure it would suit the whole story. You also may (or may not) have noticed a font change; this is a custom font that I made from my handwriting, called “Bughand”. It’s a little bit neater and more readable, and I like the feel it gives the comic without using one of those generic comic-text fonts. Eventually I plan on changing all the old pages to match, but that’s down the road.

As a last note, I wanted to express my thanks for all the kind words I’ve gotten from commenters of late, whether it’s congratulations on the wedding or just mentioning that they’re enjoying the comic, thank you! I know I may not be great at getting back to everyone individually, but I do read all that stuff. 😀

If you have a chance, vote!

Updates!

Updates! published on No Comments on Updates!

So, I’m back. 😀

This update is a two-page update, because when I looked at it again the first page of chapter six is kind of lame and feels like a letdown after waiting for updates so long. So in case you didn’t notice the big note above the comic page, you’ll want to go back a page or two to catch up. Not that there’s much in the way of spoilers here, but confusion happens.

In other notes, the forums are back up and fixed, so go post something. You may have also noticed the “radio chio” link in the top menu. This is new. I’ve seen a bunch of artists and other folks using this site called ustream, so I decided to give it a go. From time to time I plan on doing live streams of drawing and comic stuff, where people can jump in and ask questions and so forth. I did an unannounced test run the other day, and a few random folks jumped in. It was pretty fun, so I hope to do more of this in the future. Watch this blog or the Twitter feed for dates and times.

I have also put in some work on the book this week. If I have the time to finish the art, I hope to have it released by late fall. Maybe I should just set a deadline for myself and be done with it?

That’s all for this update. More soon!
