<title>Vacation time: all I ever wanted</title>
<description><![CDATA[
So! I completely forgot I am going to be out of state for vacation! So, unfortunately there is no comic today or next Friday, but I'm going to try to update with 2 pages when I get back.

above is just an old concept sketch I had made for the watch really early on. I like it, but I had to simplify it for the comic.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[So, I'm finally back from my artistic slump. Job hunting and filling out applications really sucked my creativity dry. I'm making a few changes, and I think they'll really help once I get used to them. Namely, I'm going to be altering and making my own 3D models for the bases of the backgrounds and then drawing in the details. This should help make more interesting camera angles and speed up production time.

The new voting incentive is my second attempt at a style for the first page of the comic. It's fun seeing how different it looks every time. Keep in mind that this one probably took place a year after the first attempt. But it's still old.



Buuuut.  To help make up for the lack of updates, I've made a small flash dress up game featuring Dahlia.

Go here to check it out.  I'll be updating with more items next week.

@Fenn:  It's true, they need someone to kick around for comic relief.

@khard12:  Too Late, he's already halfway to China.

@DAJB:  hahahahaha, that's a great way of putting it.

@amanda:  It's a recession proof job!

@Doctor Shadow:  hah!  then who would we make fun of?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[He's got foot in mouth disease.  5 bucks says he'll be crying before the night it over.

so, I've been getting onto aim again after like a year of being off.  I usually chat to friends in the evening/night/early morning so if you want to chat you can add me.  My Screename is clarawickham 

Today's voting incentive is the third page of the original style for the comic.  blah.  haha, but at least you can see how I started.  I don't think this one is finished though, there's a lot of white background.

@Avie:  haha, you want to be a pirate too?!  what a coincidence.  ^__~

@khard12:  of course... what other way is there?

@DAJB: 'Freudian slip' sounds like a Freudian slip to me.  I need to get my head out of the gutter.

@amanda:  haha, I'm sure everyone would.  He needs to think these things through.

@Hugo Maximo:  ^__^

@Fenn:  It only get's worse from here.  haha.

@Doctor Shadow:  hehe, thanks.  ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Thanks so much everyone for understanding why I have to cut back to one comic a week. Hopefully I'll be able to start adding some fun things and spend more time on things like backgrounds.

The new voting incentive is the next page of how the comic originally looked. Some people like it, but it burns my eyes. ahaha.

@DAJB:  Yeah, for a pirate she has some surprising morals.  Or maybe she just couldn't think of a lie quick enough.

@Luminous:  thanks!  I had a lot of fun drawing those panels.

@subcultured:  thank you, it takes me forever to color a page, but I think the effort is worth it.  This comic just wouldn't have as much impact in black and white.

@khard12:  yeah, it's a big change, but I'm happy with it.  I think this style fits the genre of the comic better.  The old style wasn't bad, it just wasn't what I wanted.

@amanda:  hehe, thank ya, it was fun making faces in the mirror trying to get it right.

@Skullbie:  yeah, and that page took me a 3 weeks I think, haha.  It's not bad, it's just too much of a stereotypical anime look for what I wanted for this comic.  And too sexy, I like the characters looking a bit more natural.  But I'm glad you like it, it was fun drawing at the time.

@Doctor Shadow:  That's a fact of life.  It should be on bumper stickers.

@Fenn:  Nope, any attempts automatically end in failure.]]></description>

The new voting incentive is the first page of the comic back when I first started working on it 2 years ago. the art is AWFUL. I warn you. vote to see it if you must. >__]]></description>
