JoyTown Express

Ahhh how thrilling is it to finally have finished this simple project? to finally have everything back to normal.

the reign of terror known as vista is vanquished, and the glory that is XP has returned...

so here it is, joytown express... there are a lot of things i like about this piece, and some experimentation has taken place.

i tend to go kind of crazy with the colors, so i ran this thing through photoshop and muted it a bit, i think its an improvement...

anyways, without further ado:

Rosebud

not much to report really, i know that is a horribly chiched blog post but hear me out...

still trying to get my computer back in order, and im having some difficulty getting my cintiq 12WX working in XP. this is a continuing problem i have come to find out, and not one i can solve in a day. so until the day comes when i can go back to using my tablet, i am a "writing haitus".

in other words i am working on the script for 3D-Boy my current project. at this point the script for the 3rd comic is completely finished and i have 6 pages done on the first (i realize this a weird way of doing things but w/e)

anyways i thought id put up a picture i had drawn in my short trip to London England, i was drawing it off a real flower (cant remember if it was really a rose or not).

its been touched with photoshop, but not much, i think it looks pretty good, but i may fool with it later.

The following is a picture i was working on untill flash crashed, and my tablet stopped working all at once.. now im not one to post unfinished work, but i am doing this for 2 reasons.

a. i wont be able to finish it for a while, and i am basically out of commision and
b. this picture stands as testement to my pure white rage, only now a fart in the breeze compared to the anger i was feeling when flash crashed...

damn you vista, damn you to HELL. i might do a piece to best describe my hatred for vista and my understandable unwillingness to install windows 7

well the art show was a complete success however i only got one picture out of the reckage.

as depressing as this is, i take solice in the fact that the photographer had both his legs broken and his pets killed, also his camera was smashed over his mailbox which had just got a fresh coat of paint.

but any ways its not a bad picture, here you see me talking avidly to someone about their new website verses deviant art, you can make out the display card but only barely...

and although its not necessary, i thought id include a picture of me, which isnt too bad (a rarity).

*sigh* oh well, pictures of the poster to come!

Today i was giving away special trading cards with my contact info to those who would be interested in CONTACTING ME. on the back was my name and e-mail, but on the front was a unique rendered "object" that had at that second of conception, been on my mind. some of these included a moose, some kind of strange button shaped object, a train, all done in the style of my huge poster, which i hope to sell along with my comics when all of this ties together.

when i had finished making these cards i had kind of fallen in love with them , and couldnt bare giving them out to strange people without making a scan of them first... i may do fully rendered color version of these cards and who knows they may actually become collectors items some day, who or what is collecting these things is hard to say...

pictures of the art show were i was showing my work and giving said cards out, are coming soon, all in good time, in the mean time please enjoy these cards as i have.

ps the train is my favorite, i turned it into a sign for my poster so i might get to keep it, for those of you who pay close attention to the gallery pictures will notice this detail.
