Sara : One Shot Page # 8

It’s 3:30 am, look what I do for you!
This period in Phin’s life is an interesting one. It is just after a Death spell from Rotwang gave him a heart attack and he’s really gone to hell.

I gave him the heart attack and ended the first volume on that note, at a particularly dark time in my life, at the time I was getting divorced. To be honest I wasn’t sure if he would live or die, as I felt myself.

Ineterstingly, there are two stories, taking place right around this point, both written by others, and both have Phineus in a shower scene. Odd, that.

One is obviously SARA, the other is issue #1 of the 2nd volume here > http://www.strumhaus.com/phineus/phineus_V2Cover.htm
written by Brian Babyok.
I really like drawing him all hobo-like because I could relate to that shitty feeling, and know that it all gets better.
Oh well, enough rambling, goodnight!

Something Weird…ling

You guys wanna see something very odd, this is a drawing of the very same charachters we do in our webcomic Weirdlings, in their first incarnation.

I did this for Brian at our very first Pittsburgh Comicon together, way back in 1996, TEN years ago. We had no idea what this would turn into. It was to be a graphic novel originally drawn by someone that’s not me! Either Scott Hedlund or Tim Etchison, I can’t remember.

Pretty neat, thought you guys would get a kick out of it.

Stuff

It has come to my attention that I should talk to you guys more, rather than just post new stuff. I’ll give it a go, keep in mind I am the worlds shittiest typist, hunt and peck hell.

I have no new Sara for you at this time. Now, don’t start, whining, I do have it all drawn, and a second to boot. I just don’t have them scanned in and lettered.

I typically work on my pages at work, I run a digital printing press and I have a few minutes in between prints, so I sit and draw. Unfortunately, this week I’ve been getting home all too late and with two small children, haven’t had the time to do the computer thing. I will , however get this done tomorrow morning, and if yoy’re extra good, I’ll give ya two pages for your trouble, only if you’re good.

Let me give you an Itinerery for my stuff in the rest of this year:

I am now about 1/4 of the way through the Sara: One Shot, I’ll finish that up and start a new Phineus story involving werewolves!! I am currently doing about 2 pages a week in addition to all the Weirdlings strips. If I actually accomplish all this I will have put out, this year
, the equivalent of SIX comics. Terror of Leap Castle, Sara: One Shot(a double size Issue), Weirdlings first compilation (should be out in Sept),The new Phineus story and the better part of a second Weirdlings comp. That’s pretty productive for me…

Let me ask you all, the new Phin story, should I do it like a strip, putting out one every few days and amassing a book a little at a time like Les McClaines’ Jonny Crossbones at http://www.evilspacerobot.com/comics/jonnycrossbones/archive/01.htm ?

Give me your feedback..

Cya in the morning.

I like this. It’s very easy to read. I like the art, the colors, the backgrounds, and the high weirdness factor. The very high weirdness factor.

And this one from Germany…

Ein Paranormales Team im Kampf gegen Vampire, Dämonen und andere ungemütliche Zeitgenossen. (E)

I love the internet!

Sara : One shot…NOT

You’ll notice no new Sara page today, I have it drawn, not lettered , yet. I have been inundated.
I will post it, tomorrow or Thursday. I am on track for the Weirdlings strip, tomorrow, though.

I was talking to Brian earlier, about an article I saw on MTV news about the Kubert School, cool spot, look for it. However , when I mentioned that I had wished I had gone there, he mentioned what did I think my style would look like if I had.

Interesting, I may have already gotten into being a “Professional”, but my style would be too, cookie cutter. As it stands, as I whack away at this comic thing, I have MY style, good or bad, it’s mine.

Years to come, I’ll be known, by my style, because it’s me. Sergio Aragones, Stan Sakai, Matt Wagner, Mike Mignola, etc, all have very distinct styles (not that I am any where near as good), but what’s that guys name doing Deadpool? Who knows? I’d rather be ME that be an instant success, god knows I’ve been at this long enough!

So, I’ll keep at it, honing my skills AND my style!

Word to your Mother.

Weirdlings

Hello, all,

Despite my unfortunate setback, earlier this week( IE being crushed under a pile of stuff) and going to the hospital. Despite being sore as hell, I managed to get my Weirdlings strips done on time and I completed two Sara: One Shot pages.

Today , alone, I managed to finish the inks on Sara page # 6 and pencils and inks on page #7, as well as coloring Weirdlings # 37, which you can read at http://www.weirdlings.com .

This weekend I hope to get next weeks strips completed.

Maybe I should get squished more often… Nah.

Terror of Leap Castle # 6

Hey, here is the latest Terror page.
I have just finished the pencils and inks on Fridays Weirdlings strip and have all the pencils done for Sara: One Shot page #6. I hope to get it inked tonight!
I’ll talk to ya tomorrow!

Dr. Who

Anyone else, sad that The Doctor has changed bodies in just a dozen or so episodes? I liked him better than any since Thom Baker.

Weirdlings #36

Hello, We have a new strip at http://www.weirdlings.com ! Check it out, but beware, it’s a bit Risque’ !

Sara : One Shot Page # 5

Hey, guys, here’s the new page. Enjoy! I’m hauled up at home today, on the couch. I had a little accident at work and about 800 lbs of stuff landed on me. I’m ok, bruised as hell, but not broken. So, sorry the post is late!
