Oh My God...

So today I thought I'd give you guys a treat and color my comic REALLY REALLY WELL.
But I used one too many eggs in the cake batter and it turned out like crap.

Explanation: I colored the comic with GIMP, which is like photoshop, and shaded pretty much every surface, using gradients for many as well. It took eight hours because of the length (12 pages!) and because of the work involved. When i began to put it together onto one big column, it was too big for my computer to handle.
Long story short, had to convert it to gif TWICE, which RUINED it.

Lesson learned: I am going to start releasing in pages from now on. This will begin next week. I should have done this a long time ago. They will release monday, wednesday, and friday in this form. This next week will be spent converting all my comics to pages and redownloading them to the site. WOO FUN.

Anyways, this is messed up but its legible, here's this week's comic. Click to read the whole thing.

Week 4 Without Comics



So project # 2 is complete, and here it is in really small almost illegible comic form!
Click to read!

So! Originally the plan was that I would be posting a comic next week. Its gonna be iffy.
You see, I still technically have drivers ed for two more days, and I have another project due on thursday.
Worry not, I have a comic half finished from a long time ago, so I might just finish and post it. BUT it might not happen if I get super busy.
Just so you know.

Tomorrow is my final Student Ambassador meet, and on June 20(ish) I'll be flying off to England! And then France! And then Italy!
I'll be taking a million pictures, and I might even set up a twitter to keep you guys clued in.


In other news, I am also considering switching sites. This blog sort of bugs me because of the narrowness of the actual posting area. I'll be testing out a new site, and who knows? Maybe I'll be switching over.

Week 3 Without Comics

ONLY TWO WEEKS LEFT UNTIL COMICS!!

And I had another filler comic drawn, but I hate it so I'm going to post other crap instead!

Yesterday I borrowed my buddy Terra's tablet to help with a project I'm doing for English. And so, so practice, I drew like a ton of pictures.













I drew this first one on paint and then colored on gimp.











This second one is entirely gimp, playing with layers
This third one is my very first oekaki post ever.
This fourth one is my second oekaki post ever. It was quickly removed because it wasnt "skilled" enough for two star boards. Also it didnt meet the theme criteria, which was "anime."
Some "SolarBear" asshole left a comment on my first ever oekaki post that said "you ought to spend more time on your art." I would not take this insult lying down, so i quickly whipped this drawing up. It was removed from the site ten seconds later.
Here's a self portrait which served as my fourth oekaki post ever. miraculously this one wasnt blocked.

My fifth oekaki post was done on a "mystical creature" themed board. This was promptly deleted because there were "no humanoid creatures alowed" Its a freaking monkey, jesus. I am currently fighting for its return to the board.

This self portrait was posted in a different oekaki board because i was pissed.







I drew this this morning, right after i learned of the most recent of deletions.
This picture acually wasnt drawn with the tablet. I drew it on paper and then colored using gimp and a mouse. Didnt have a date for prom DX

This one also didnt have any tablet involved. You'll notice how amazingly better these are. I just need time.

Aside from these pictures, I also made an amazing video! And the embed is aparently being gay, so here's a link instead! How Gay is That? This video is one of the many projects that i had to do for school that prompted me to STOP MAKING COMICS. So this is a product of these weeks without comics!

Also, you'll notice that there are a bunch of new "Other Comics." I posted all my old comics in there for your enjoyment! Hope you like!
