Oh hay, I draw comics.


Oh hi, I'm not dead! I've been busy okay. :c



So this year, I ended up skipping out on 24hr Comics Day. To make up for it, I promised Twitter that I would finish a 24-page comic by the end of October (otherwise I'd owe my followers a sketch by the end of November**). So it's not really a 24-hour comic since I had all month, but you get the same product, I guess. Except it would, theoretically, be of better quality since you know, I had all month. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. THREE WEEKS INTO OCTOBER, I kind of sort of have some thumbnails of an idea. Kind of. So yeah, despite giving myself the month, I ended up drawing the whole thing in a week basically. While working fulltime.





I'm not super pleased with the results to be honest, but I guess doing something lackluster is still better than doing nothing at all. One of these days, I'll be able to finish a comic without imposing ridiculously stupid deadlines on myself, but that day is not today.



I finished the comic in inks just short of midnight last night, but then I decided to add tones too, so I'm still doing those. So does that count as having finished? I dunno. I guess I'll draw you a sketch if you really, really want, but if it isn't done by November, too bad, because I have put off my starting NaNoWriMo to ensure this comic gets toned.



And speaking of NaNoWriMo, I have no idea what I'm writing. I am thinking of giving fantasy a shot as a genre, but beyond that, no idea. I should probably get on that, huh? Anyway yeah. I'll be posting one page of The Z Train a day until it's done. That will give you something to look at while I write furiously and stuff. Commissions will be open again in December.



** I occasionally promise to do things by a certain time on Twitter. If I don't follow through, I owe a sketch to whoever calls me out on it. Incentive to follow me and endure the other 95% of the annoying tweets that aren't promises? Yes. :P
