I only like spam with noodles.

Greetings, everyone! It’s the first page proper of the Child arc! After the wonderful break away from Elf Blood that illustrating Mei Wu offered, I’m having a blast drawing Elf Blood again!

I’d also like to point out a new anti-spam measure I’ve had to implement. Unfortunately, my connection to the Akismet servers is getting really shaky as of recent, so I’ve had to limit the comments a bit.

Now, I don’t want to use reCaptcha; I feel it makes commenting less fluid for you guys. But, since the spam is targetting old posts, all posts older than 30 days will be locked for comment. I don’t think it’ll present too much of an issue, and the questions page etc.will still remain open for comment! read more

Bless The Child!

by on December 20, 2013 at 6:00 am
Chapter:

And it begins! Well, the cover anyway. And quite fitting it is, too, that The Child arc should begin around Christmastime!

Also quite fitting is that Sega have released a 3DS version of Streets of Rage, which this arc pays homage to. Well, that and many other brawlers along the way. You’ll see 😀

Best of all, I think, is that this time around we get to know JN a bit better. JN was conceived as little more than dumb muscle, and we’ve never really had the opportunity to experience his personality much, nor has he had much in the way of backstory or history. This arc, while we won’t be seeing a whole lot of said backstory, we WILL be seeing a lot more of him and his motivations! read more

Impromptu Review. Woohoo!

by on March 11, 2013 at 6:00 am
Chapter:

Ah, the satisfaction of closing out a story arc! I think this one has been a fairly decent one, and there’s definitely a benefit to writing the whole script out in advance of illustrating the comic. There’s always things to improve on, though! Hope you’ve enjoyed this arc, and are looking forward to the next one!

Anyways, on Saturday night I went with a couple of friends to (FINALLY) go see Wreck-It-Ralph, Pixar’s (or Disney’s, whatever it is they’re actually called now) newest film. All I have to say is; GO SEE IT! GO SEE IT NOW! read more

Food!

by on March 8, 2013 at 6:00 am
Chapter:

Now, I’ve written about food before, and I’m sure that in my previous writing on the subject I’ve probably given the (very accurate) impression that I friggin love making and consuming tasty food. I’m fortunate enough to be blessed with friends and family who are of the same opinion and motive.

Last weekend, I made a little trip back up to Glasgow, and stopped in to cook dinner with a couple of friends as an alternative to a night out. One friend took it upon himself to make a timelapse video of us making the food, which turned out pretty awesomely and I might link to if the others give their permission to do so. While the camera was positioned fairly far away, we discussed it and came to the conclusion that it would be quite good to produce more timelapses of us preparing more meals. read more

Let’s get dangerous!

by on February 22, 2013 at 6:00 am
Chapter:

As part of my ongoing attempts to improve my writing and general creative ability, I went to my first session of a local writers’ group this week. Well, self-improvement and the fact that it’s very easy to get  a little stir-crazy being cooped up in the flat at all hours outside of work. It’s great to be involved with a group of other creative people again, since the Comics Collective’s drink and draw dissolved.

I don’t mind admitting I felt a touch out of place, seeing as the others reading their work out that night had material that explored history, the depths of human relationships, the life of Shakespeare. What’d I bring? A graphic novel script-in-progress about mages. Fighting a fae automaton. While posing as social healthcare workers. read more

What’s over the horizon?

by on February 18, 2013 at 6:00 am
Chapter:

Aloha everybody! We’re nearing the end of the Dreamland Story Arc, so I thought I’d give you a little update on the upcoming story arc: Crush Depth!

Unfortunately I’ve not yet finished the actual script for the story, owing to having to deal with work work through lunchtimes when I’d normally be scripting. The detailed plot has been done for a while, though, and I’m about halfway complete on the script itself, so if I dedicate some time to working on it I’ll be able to get it done and reviewed before I start illustrating it! read more

Musings on Valentines Day

by on February 15, 2013 at 6:00 am
Chapter:

Like so many others, I used to actively resent Valentines Day. I thought today was going to be like all my other Valentines Days alone (i.e. all of them), but something occurred to me; what good does it do? All bitterness does is bring you down and bring everyone around you down; If you can’t be happy, then at least try and make others or let them be happy. At least that way you leave the world at least as good a place as you found it.

Sure, Valentines Day is over-commercialised, and sure, people should be able to express affection at any other time of the year to each other. But there’s no harm in making a little extra effort on one day, is there? If somebody wants to use Valentine’s Day to give them an excuse to make their lover extra happy, more power to them. If somebody only declares their love for their partner on Valentine’s Day, it’s no business of mine and certainly not for me to ruin with bitterness and crankiness. read more

Light or dark future, sir, ma’am?

by on February 4, 2013 at 6:00 am
Chapter:

So, the new season of Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror is almost here; For those of you not in the know, it’s a very, VERY dark TV series that explores the impact of technology on society through dramatic form. Going over the synopses for the first series, the future presented in this somehwat hellish universe is utterly terrifying. People under the thumb of ruling parties, corporations, their own greed and sadism; It’s not only a grim, bleak portrayal of the future, but serves to analyse the social dystopia we inhabit here and now. read more
