Okay. So, I've been using a lot of what time I've put here not actually towards my own works, and that's a shame. The purpose of this blog was, mainly, to kick around little shit I am doing in regards to artwork and comics and whatnot that would not fit on a more serious space devoted solely to those efforts (say, sketches for example). There are a couple of big projects I am working on, but so far they are in early production or (in one's case) being restarted due to rookie eagerness that eventually bested me. In either case, I can't speak more on them; just know they'll be coming "soon".
Even so, that isn't any excuse not to try something else in the meanwhile, so I've decided to attempt a surprise project. A rather unplanned comic, aside from a basic concept, something to give it just the slightest hint of direction. There's no saying how long this effort will last, and since I'm still working on planning things out for the other "serious" projects I won't push this one to the same rigorous pace as these (or to the same expectations I suppose). However, this isn't unprecedented for me, as I've done at least two comics in an on-the-whim fashion. Neither was finished (it's a sad side-effect sometimes) and I completely tore apart one of them years ago instead of storing it away (in Scrubs operatic fashion now: MISSTAAAAAAAKE!), but regardless, it's stuff I've done before. This time I'll attempt to finish the project out but if work on that begins to slow down my efforts with either two of the "serious" projects once I can go full-tilt into those, don't be surprised if I put it on indefinite hiatus or just some time off to get those up to speed.
As for where I'll host it? Well, it's essentially going to be a webcomic format-wise, so I'll actually make use of that Smackjeeves account created eons ago (now I just need a good bufferer to restore that luminous luster), and co-host it on my MangaMagazine.net profile as well. In any case, I can get a feel for whom my sort of style would appeal to, since even tho there's no plot crossover btwn this and those two other projects, there are (obviously) stylistic qualities in common.
Ah, and to wrap this mention up: I have still the original pages to the last comic project tried doing years ago (it was about in '07/'08 actually). Most of them are damaged, aren't inked and there's no dialog on any of them (although I have written scripts for most of the pages). Although the work is definitely a reflection of the more "immature me" at that time (parts of which, I'll admit, are still around, tho I'd like to believe in wiser fashion since I'm a bit older), it might be a fun kick to give a sampling of the sort of shit I've done before that's helped lead up to what I'll be doing in the very near future. Those pages, however, I'll just stick in a scrap folder in my dA profile, for anyone interested, and will begin scanning and uploading them near the end of the week along with this "surprise" comic.
That's all for now. I feel like doing some drawing right now while there's a nice overcast. Have a good Sunday and..uhm...dunno. A bit mute from yesterday to bother much clever word-plays. See 'ya l8r.
