I wish ka-blam was as fast with adding stuff to indyplanet as they were with assembling the book. But then again I also requested the sketchbooks to be added to comicsmonkey, and I think that's more time consuming for them. Could be that's why it's taking few days now (and might take few more).

The script I wrote on the 1st? It's still not drawn (still grabbing more visual reference).

Got plenty of that already, thank you.

I'm more in need of archers, capes, hoods and medieval/fantasy stuff, not nudity.

i hate this whole "no spending money" trip i'm on. i have over a month to go, and i'm bored out of my mind. on top of that, in 2 weeks, i haven't saved much more than normal. granted, i had the unexpected luxury of buying a new key for my car. but still….

awesomesauce….i get motivated to work on my comic, and sit down and then the wife proclaims i'm not spending enough time with her, when she's been playing her video game since noon.

My roommate's been driving me up the f*cking wall lately. He's been sick in some form for three weeks now. First, a flu. Then, a cold. And now from the cold, he's so hyper congested (for a week now), he's been making loud horking sounds, literally every 20-30 seconds. Geez, go to a doctor already! So sick of hearing him try to cough up. Combine this with the fact he never leaves his computer seat in the living room, let alone the house and I'm stuck with an annoying loud sick shut in.

apparently the world is so integrated these days, that when you watch porn on the computer it shows up under recently played on the xbox.

awesome.

After reading the Calvin and Hobbes comics and remembering that the guy who made the comic strips never wanted his work to be "commercialized", I have to agree. Turning the strip into animation, movies, or even putting them on merchandise would probably ruin the spirit of thing and would be pretty hard to do anyway. So I'll simply enjoy the strips as they are… the 4 panel pieces of art and philosophy we see in newspapers each days. :)

My dad just died maybe an hour ago. He fought stage 4 cancer for 6 months.

Posted at 11:01AM, Jan. 10, 2010

Jeez, that's awful Mecha!
I just saw you nick on this thread and I thought "I wonder how Mecha's dad is?"

Shiz. -_-

Hope you're ok.

I'm finally back! My computer crashed around the end of November last year. I was on a loaner from my mom which is really a pain to browse the internet and this site in general. Fortunately, my dad bought a warranty for my old laptop four years ago, so I got a new one in the mail. I went from a 60 GB hard drive that was on my original laptop. It was also good for media. Now I got a 500 GB hard drive, surround sound, and a LCD HD screen. All in all, the warranty was worth it.

I might still be on and off trying to load all my stuff back again, but I will be getting back to my comics soon…I hope…

Glad that your computer is among the living again.

Posted at 1:01PM, Jan. 10, 2010

I like this topic.

Posted at 2:01PM, Jan. 10, 2010

So it's a thread both on moaning and yay-ing? Sounds good.

Moan: stupid family, and the fact that I still have to live with them. Grumble grumble bitch bitch.

Moan 2: oh, and last night my mum told me of the prospects of a job opening up in my small town, so that I 'wouldn't have to move to the big city, now, isn't that greaaaatttt.' Ugh.

But, yay: um, well, I'm having mashed taters tonight, so yay? Oh, and actual ice cream for dessert. Yum.

Posted at 2:01PM, Jan. 10, 2010

Very sorry to hear that.

Posted at 4:01PM, Jan. 10, 2010

I'm really sorry. :(

Posted at 6:01PM, Jan. 10, 2010

My condolences… cherish the times you had with your father, though. :)

Posted at 6:01PM, Jan. 10, 2010

You and him are in my thoughts and prayers.

Posted at 7:01PM, Jan. 10, 2010

I don't want to deal with people tomorrow. I just want to plunge myself into my work and not look up. I'm gonna cry when my alarm goes off, sneeerrffff.

I'm sorry to hear that, I wish you and your family the best… :(

i've created a comic that i ink and practice everything i'm bad at.
And i'm getting no feedback *sigh* ; w ;

meanwhile, i don't feel so great atm

*inks another page* =.=

Posted at 9:01AM, Jan. 11, 2010

feedback is always good.
But I wouldn't get too strung out about it.
It's nice to be poop-ular from time to time….but the real joy comes from the creative process.
Feedback or no…as long as you enjoy creating for yourself….and you have a genuine enthusiasm for what your doing….it'll attract people.
Just give it time.
