Chapter 3 – Page 52

In which earlier events are painted in an even more uncomfortable light.


Seven days? More like twenty-one.

But it wasn’t six months this time. So that’s good.

Still going to FallCon in St. Paul, MN. Drop by, say hello, let me know somebody’s still reading this thing despite my inability to get the pages out at a decent clip.

I’ve started posting up new merchandise, starting with a brand-new t-shirt design that you can see and purchase here. I’ve switched from CafePress to Zazzle for merchandise; I like their website functionality better and they did a nice job on the promo postcards I did for last year’s WizardWorld Chicago. If you do buy a shirt, let me know how it turns out. I’m curious.

I think that’s all for now. Let’s see if I can make it a three-page month!

Two Things You Might Want To Know.

August 31st, 2009

1) The next page of Scwonkey Dog is coming September 2nd. It’s actually done, so this is a fact, no foolin’.

2) Evan, myself, and at least one more person will be tabling together at FallCon (their site is down as of this writing), in St. Paul, MN, October 10 & 11. We were planning on being there last year, but we apparently fell thru the cracks. Not so this year! I have a postcard sitting right by my computer monitor that says WE WILL BE THERE. Which means I have to really get the lead out over the next month and a half! I need banners! Postcards! Maybe t-shirts! And I’ve got a new edition of the currently completed material planned! So watch for us there! More details as they become available!

Hope to see some of you all there!

Hey, it’s done!

July 16th, 2008

In case you’re reading this on some sort of feed reader … thingy, I’m not sure if it’s told you, but the first new page of SCWONKEY DOG since Wizard World Chicago is now up! Visit the site and take a look!

If the feed thing IS working … err, disregard this message. Yeah.

Later!

On The Quest For Money & Space.

June 11th, 2008

Just letting you know that, in order to raise some funds and clear a bunch of stuff out of the house in preparation for the big move in early July, I’m parting with a bunch of my worldly possessions on the eBay — old He-Man figures, Transformers, Gundam stuff, other random action figures, import video games, comics, and so on. Take a look and see if there’s anything you’re interested in, why don’t you? It would certainly be appreciated!

Just once …

April 15th, 2008

I would like one of these production companies to acquire the rights to a fantastic property that’s been done BEAUTIFULLY in comics and animation SOLELY so that someone ELSE doesn’t do something STUPID like ACTUALLY MAKING the inevitably awful live action movie.

NOTE TO SPIELBERG AND HIS ASSOCIATES: YOU WILL NOT MAKE A BETTER GHOST IN THE SHELL THAN THE TWO STAND ALONE COMPLEX TV SHOWS, SO YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN’T EVEN BOTHER.

YES, I KNOW I’M YELLING. I HAVE TO. IT’S THE ONLY WAY ANYONE WILL HEAR ME.

In other news, two pics penciled and inked this afternoon. WOOT! I just hope tomorrow night I’m not up ’til four a.m. again coloring ‘em …

Moving forward.

March 7th, 2008

Sorry there’s been no material this week. I feel terrible, like my head’s been stuffed full of cotton; Tuesday, I even went home from work because I was feeling dizzy and nauseous, soooooo … yeah. I penciled in the first few panels of page forty of our ongoing adventures sometime last week, but I’m really dissatisfied with most of the artwork so far — one or two of the panels are OK, but … you know, I don’t want to force any of the art out. If I do something, and it turns out bad — or at least not to my satisfaction — I’m just gonna have to draw it over. And I just don’t know that with this weird fuzzy feeling I’ve got that anything would look any good. I’m gonna try and get rolling on a lot of art tonight and this weekend, but … we’ll see. I still want to get all this done before spring break; that’s still the goal. But we’ll see. Really, most of my time has been spent sleeping and watching Transformers music videos on YouTube and playing Another Century’s Episode 2 — the Battle of Saturn’s Rings from Macross comes off kind of strangely when you’ve got the three pilot girls from Nadesico battling the Battlepods; for some reason they didn’t give me but one Valkyrie for that stage. So, huh. But anything of a creative nature? Hoo boy, no, my head’s a little too cloudy to get any ideas out.

Funniest thing I’ve read all week: this tongue-in-cheek article on manga reviewing at the Otaku USA website courtesy of Jason Thompson, author of Manga: The Complete Guide. I swear, I keep thinking I really need a subscription to Otaku USA … it’s always full of neat stuff like that.
