| | User: Dan | | | Cut down on the spriting? Never. That would defeat the purpose of this comic, but it would be selfish of me to think of this comic in such a way. I really wanted to go much more in-depth than a mere purpose.
Lately I've been thinking over what I did over the days. I drew, I sprited, I read, played games (Note to self: STOP playing Team Fortress 2- I should've learned to stay out of it after 19-losing streak but I never learn), but I never could never find where I actually belonged. I always thought I was born to be an artist, and so did others. But lately certain strain of events forced me to make second-thoughts about it. Not surprisingly I was never execptional in any of the categories as I hoped I would be. I wished I'd find someplace to be, but so far nothing's come up. Maybe I need to look harder. Maybe I need to look back.
In any case, I'm hoping for an update this week or the end of so. I can't promise anything due to school (Oh who am I kidding- fucking school. Fucking school and my lousy course decisions). But I will break the silence even if it means I have to skimp down on school assignments. As a matter of fact, I'd love to skimp down on school assignments. I just need proper justification and maybe courage. -Posted on Apr 20, 2009 | | User: Arc | | | lol, they're better than nothing. Maybe you could cut down on the spriting to have more time to make the comic.
Unless, that's what you need to make the next strip. :O -Posted on Apr 05, 2009 | | User: Dan | | | Oh Gods, tutorials. Where oh where do I begin?
The day when I decided to make this 4-panels is when I decide to shoot myself. But it's taking me so long to sprite stuff. -Posted on Mar 31, 2009 | | User: Arc | | | I'd love some tutorials actually. :D
Just try to update this every so often. Even if it's four panels or something... -Posted on Mar 29, 2009 | | User: Dan | | | "This is not looking good here- uhhhh..."
And here I am, with yet another lousy blog imitation. I'm starting to grow tired of it, but there's not much else I can do. Things have lightened up a bit (Oh God, I said it again) and managed to make a weee tiny bit on comic progress. Unfortunately, I decided to redo my main character from scratch (A bit old. Eyes just look plain stupid at 400x, but oh well) since I've grown rather sick of having edits be my main characters (Supporting and minor roles/redshirts are fine as edits/recolors).
Maybe I should turn this comic into a blog-art hybrid and post what I've been up to while I look more and more like a lazy donkey? Of course I'll have to make a separate comic... but unless I can change the title, there's going to be a bit of confusion in the matter. Sure, I can probably create a separate one instead of changing this, but then it'd have some very bad early impressions. Huh, I guess it doesn't matter either way. In any case, the "blog" will have some concept arts I have thrown around, maybe scrapped story ideas, sprite rips, nerdy accomplishments in video games, tutorials, whinings, and opinions [Cue evil music].
I'm probably overshooting myself with this idea, but the fanciness wouldn't be complete without some responses. I normally don't ask for comments unless I ask a question, but I would definately like your thoughts on this. For one, I doubt blog would not necessarily slow down the comic (I know, shoot me), and I'd like to throw something else other than just the comic.
So uh, any thoughts would be appreciated. -Posted on Mar 22, 2009 | | User: Dan | | | Ay, it's been a disastrous week, but after 2 days of rest, I'm somewhat better now, although I need to do something about the growing frequency of venting over frustration.
But thanks for your offers. I really appreciate it. -Posted on Feb 15, 2009 | | User: opdisk225 | | 5 | | Anything I can do to help? -Posted on Feb 15, 2009 | | User: Arc | | | :S
Anything I can do to help? -Posted on Feb 14, 2009 | | User: Dan | | | | It hurts... just seeing this gather dust. I just don't know what to do anymore. Nothing's going the way I want them to- even the things I expect to go wrong. -Posted on Feb 11, 2009 | | User: Dan | | | Well, it appears that the school isn't going to let up anytime soon, and I just can't find any... well, "desire" (Can't quite say motivation) to work on the next page. But I do confess, there's virtually nothing to justify the continued inactivity anymore (To top it off, I've fallen in love with Team Fortress 2), so you could pretty much consider it utter laziness on my part. Not sure if ripping sprites for Sprite Database and Spriter's Resource deducts my laziness, but that has stalled, too.
At least this way I can explain what's been going on rather than a curious silence. Oh, I really wish I could pull off comics (And art) as quickly as others do instead of being a sloth. -Posted on Jan 16, 2009 | | User: Dan | | | I just love how almost 1/2 of my total pages consist of filters. But I, once again, should have put more thought into maintaining the pace in the first place.
The thing is: I can't figure out what's worse- putting up more filters than actual comic pages or pulling out constant rantings of recent events in hopes of turning them into excuses.
That or I can stop biting off more than I can chew.
In any case, these filters will disappear eventually. -Posted on Jan 08, 2009 | | Only registered members may vote. Sign up here!
