Unprecedented Return

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

Oh.  Wow.

What started out as a small break to catch up on things and think out the rest of this little storyline spiraled into greatly embarrassing hiatus.  I’d like to say that most of the problems stemmed from a busy schedule and a lack of spare time.  Sadly, a big part of what left me (and presumably anyone left reading this) stuck was not really having a clue as to where to go afterward.

I still don’t know.  Not really.

But I’ve got something I haven’t had in a long time: momentum.  This story is finished and I’ve got the next one cookin’.  I’ve been back at the ol’ drawing board (figuratively and literally) for a bit now and I’m planning on rolling that into more artwork and more strips.  I’m not going to be delusional and say I’ll keep a perfect schedule, but I’m going to put my best efforts into putting SOMETHING up here frequently.

So…  let’s try this again, shall we?

No Bedbug Bites

So.

I just finished putting my son to bed by reading him a small excerpt from Stephen King’s The Dead Zone. You go to Hell for that sort of thing, don’t you?

Really Olde Artwork

Friday, July 25th, 2008

Sometimes it’s good to take a look back and take measure of where one’s been and how one has grown.  I don’t have a lot of old artwork scanned, but what I do have is certainly a bit…  different.

Geez, it may not show up as well since this is an elderly scan by a bad office scanner, but I’m not sure I could squeeze much more hatching and cross-hatching in this pic!  Maybe it’s the conflicting light sources or whatever the heck I was thinking.

It’s eerie to think this picture is almost 10 years old.  I’m not sure if I should dig some more old artwork or “accidentally” dispose of it.
