More Envira...

I've been keeping pretty busy lately... it's nice to have several projects to work on... I talked to Monica about her new website launch... so I should have a date for when the ALL NEW Envira comic will be posted... until then here is some more Envira...

I've already sketched out several pages... I'm on part 4... trying to figure out how to end this one... dun dun duuuun. I hope everyone enjoys it... it's fun to work on :) You get to meet some people from her past and start to see a bit more about her life outside of crimefighting...

I'm also starting up on the next episode of the cartoon... I can't wait to post some illustrations from it once we launch the website for that... about 2 years in the works now...

Thank ya! Thank ya! More sooooon!!

Love at first sight

This was inspired by a drawing I saw... it was sort of medical, a man and woman standing next to eachother with their guts intertwined... I took a spin off that and ended up with this. I would love to animate this someday...

A girl and guy are walking towards eachother unaware... they almost bump into one another so they look up. When their eyes meet there is sort of click sound... the world falls away... as they gaze into eachother's eyes... then a red ribbon makes it's way out of each of their hearts and begins to slowly tie into a bow. Love at first sight...

New Banner

I had this idea a while back... Originally it was just going to be 3 or 4 really grotesque women, but then I decided to use the Space Girl I had already kind of sketched out... then I thought about sticking with a Space theme... but didn't like the other characters... so I thought I might as well incorporate different story elements I like... what came out was a sort of Feminist Progression...

The prostitute represents a woman who isn't even aware of the fact she is working for the man. She has no self worth and is selling her whole body, giving everything she has just so she can eventually overdose on drugs and end her tragic life...

Next we have a woman who has been thrown into a zombie infestion. She isn't a violent person normally, but when faced with this grave (pun) situation she chooses to fight til her last breath.

Lastly, we have the Space Lady... although she is your typical 36-26-36, she doesn't let men take advantage of her. She is aware and strong... and is suppose to represent a woman taking power back and doing what she wants and needs.

I'm not thrilled with the sizing... I wanted it much bigger... but it wouldn't fit... so I had to resize/post it a few times...

I might post each individual woman... so you get all the details :)

I hope you enjoy!!

Thanks guys!

Teaserz

Here are a few teasers from some things I'm working on...

NEW ENVIRA SERIES!! WOO WOOO!! (This is the first thing I've really colored in photoshop... and I don't have a tablet yet... but it was fun and relatively easy... ) I figured posting this would make me work on it more... give me a feeling of a deadline... I will post the full teaser poster once I've finished a few of the volumes :) I'm excited to work on it again!! Monica is having a new website launch soon and I thought it would make sense to feature a new Envira series... I've had some time to work on new ideas for it :)

The space girl is going to be in my new header art... I don't like the current one, it was a sort of rushed job... I thought I should incorporate more of my actual drawings... so she will be one of three completely different women in different settings... I hope you guys enjoy this for now... more coming soon....sooon.

Fecal Matters...

I've had a lazy year... I've gotten a break from life... well, I've tried to at least... but I have felt unfulfilled... I have all of these ideas in my head... and need to get them out... onto paper... put out there... in some shape or form... I wanted to print a graphic novel but haven't been able to decide on a theme etc... so... finally I have decided I should at least post some shorts on my blog... what is the point of having this thing if I'm not displaying any of my work...

This was a simple idea... it was verbatim sent to a friend over AIM to be silly... but I liked it and decided I should make a little comic out of it... hope you enjoy!! (please don't sue me "Virgina Slims"... I really couldn't afford that...) oof... more to come soon I hope... ;)

(alternate intros)

"Fun with feces..."

"Now in Fecal vision"....

"No feces were harmed in the making of this shabby comic..."

eh....

direction...

ever heard that song "Direction" by Interpol? I'm listening to it on repeat...

This past year has been so directionless... I finally got my own place, which was a nice start... but I don't feel like i've been as productive as I could have been... I've had tunnel vision for this cartoon and haven't really wanted to pursue anything else... but here I am... another year almost done... and not a lot to show for it... I'm hoping we get some funding soon so I can start working on it full time... I don't know how much more of this I can take...

I think the thing that scares me the most is... will I ever be able to put all of these ideas and stories onto paper?... even a small fraction of them... right now I'm just sitting here... the clock is ticking... and they are bubbling at the surface of my brain... I want to get them out there... but something is holding them all in...

I guess they will come out when they need to... until then I will just scribble ideas onto post-its and keep compiling ideas...

I'm trying to enjoy this phase of my life right now, whatever it is... soon enough things will change and this will all be a memory...

The starving artist is back this week... my food supply is running quite low... 3 more days til pay day... I will either get really creative or some food angel will appear and help me out...

My current edibles are.... Pasta, Not enough sauce to use on all the pasta... salt, pepper, seasoned salt, "Mexican" style frozen vegetables, 3 cans of Tuna, half a loaf of bread, and coffee...

Haha... my money count is: $2.70 (unless you count my pennies... which might be $5 more...) hahaha... oh life...

Soon... I SHALL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!! ...until then... I'll just keep meaning business...

G'night Ladies and Germs!! (or morning?) eh...
