I've been spending some time kinda moping for the recent loss of my Harddrive. I mean, I had PLEASANT LIFE #1 DONE!!!!! But now my comp crashed and I lost it all. I got about 5 pages on disc recovered. But that means, I gotta redo the cover, 12 interior pages, all the layout and crap promo ads and things I had for it. Very frustrating. IF I hadn't delayed it before, I would be doing so now. Perhaps I am a psychic or something?
So, I've spent some time working on things WEBSITE related. Some of you will note that I got new colourfull buttons on there, changed some color schemes around, uploaded new news, pics and things. All exciting stuff. I like keeping things fresh and making sure people know I check the site daily and want people to keep coming back and getting entertained. Nothing frustrates me more when one of my favorite websites of people I look up to are not updated for YEARS! So, I don't want to be that guy.
On the up side, I got a positive review for my work on EARTHGIRL, which was nice. It was a glowing review and I am proud for every nice comment said about Melody's creation and words. My art I feel was so-so, and we'll definatly do better the second time around, but for now, Its great to revel in some glory. I don't get to do that very often. The good thing is, is that Melody is taking the book to Dallas, San Diego and other places down south. I am Doing the up north cons in 2007, and we're both doing SAN DIEGO together, which is awesome. I'm quite intimidated by that, but Its something I've been looking forward to doing in my life and I made a goal. 2007, it finally happens. Expect me to be talking about that a lot in the coming months.
I still have yet to find an artist for OUTCAST, so it looks like I will shelve that thing until my run on Pleasant Life is done. When that will be, I dunno. I may find some artist in the future to work with though. Thats kinda what I am hoping for.
I'm working on a commission this week and more pinup art for MIDOHIO CON to sell, as well as Pleasant Life #3 pages. I still have yet to do a cover for that, so hopefully I'll get that going as well.
This weekend I am free to draw and relax. I'm quite broke, so I won't be going anywhere. NEXT weekend, I'm having my son up for a visit. And then NEXT NEXT weekend, I am going to Shanes for music stuff, podcast stuff, video recording stuff, and searching for a place to work/live in May! Exciting!
Listening to ALOT of Podcasting now via my IPOD. Really enjoying hearing about comics non-stop. It keeps my mind where it needs to be, which is great. Its good to listen to that and escape what I am doing that is mundane in my life (job!). I wish it were X-mas now. I love x-mas. I never got to celebrate it much as a kid cause of my parents' kooky religion, so I am definatly making up for it now that I am older!
Well, I'm rambling. Back to my podcasts and pencils!
