for the curious....

For anyone that was wondering exactly what the cryptic project I was talking about actually is - I started working on a comic book. Its just a personal project, not commissioned or anything like that, sadly. I'd have announced that to the world if that happened! The image to the right is an indication that I am in the VERY EARLY stages of this, but I have a big plan for what is to come.

What else I have is an entire storyline written out, with characters established and a detailed story figured-out and thought through. As all of you who know me could imagine, it's basically science-fiction/action oriented. The next step is going to be scripting and doing the artwork for the actual pages. Again, a fair amount of this I already have figured out, it's just a matter of getting on it. So here is one of the main characters. It's not really much right now, and this isn't a fully realized image of him (colored and all). Again, this is a VERY EARLY stage in this whole process. And yes, he is an alien...

Have you considered a career in art?

Most of the people that I know that are involved with art have to work other jobs they'd rather not be working to support themselves or their artistic endeavors. Sometimes it feels (for me at least), like by going to my other job, I'm killing the creative part of myself.

Although, with that said, I'm actually in the early stages of a very ambitious project that is going to be very time consuming. So for the two of you (in a good month) that check site out, it'll probably be a longer while before I put another piece up here.
