Hey everyone, I want to update you on a few things.
For the ETA on the next FALL comic, it is currently sort of unknown. It is going to be a few weeks till you see it. I have worked a bit on it, but my current priorities are jumbled up as of lately, due to real life stuff.
I am also currently re-learning Flash (The last time I really really worked with it was probably 2004). Every few years I need to update my web skills. I am taking my time also learning Actionscript 3.0, and reading a few books on other subjects related and unrelated to technical stuff.
I am currently working on an animated music video (using Flash) for my friend Steve Foster, famous for his Christmas Chickens. This video is not chicken related, but related to another type of bird. I'm doing it because it's really fun to be working on it, and I'm learning new skills that will help me out (and entertain you more) in the future.
Here is the first 2 seconds of animation:
You will see the final product within a month or two (or several), depending on when I finish it and when Steve wants to release it to the public.
Still working on #30, lots of RL stuff hindering me lately. Hopefully I'll get it done this weekend.
In the meantime, I want to show you this collage of images of Maaya, from 2002 (when the idea of FALL was conceived) to 2008. It's interesting to see how the character design changed,stuck for awhile, and improved over time.
A student film I acted in, in 2004. Also in it are my friends Lee Noble, Mike Raybourne, and Jackie Gibbs. Written, edited and directed by my friend Johnson Lee, for Emerson College, shot in the Boston Common. Finally on YouTube.
Shot on 16 mm with a Bolex, a 8 min. short about BRETHREN. This was edited on a STEINBECK, that ancient machine you never thought still existed.
Fun times.
I just looked through my whole archive of artwork, and I have to say that I've improved leaps and bounds over the past several years.
It's funny to see my drawing style going from "fanboyish scraggles" to near "publishing quality" comicing. I feel really proud of myself on how I've grown in that aspect.
The only thing I did in the past that I'd like to do again is drawing in a more detailed, serious style. I used to be in the whole "complex is better" camp, but I went with the "simplicity school" as the years went by. Possibly someday in the future I will draw a different comic in an alternative style.
There is always still room to improve (like drawing more often), and I can't wait to see how much more I improve six years from now.
In case you missed him, ThadBot is back from the ether and has made a new post.
I'm glad he's back, even though he still makes fun of me.
About the bonus comic that was supposed to be up this weekend, I decided not to do it.
Too much was going on this weekend, and I want to concentrate my time on comic #30. Also, I don't think the bonus comic was not as good as it could have been.
Look forward to #30 later this week. BTW, I will usually update towards the end of the week from now on.

Bonus comic upcoming this weekend, and the comic that continues #29 comes sometime next week!
FALL is back!
