ZZZZZzzzzzzz....

I've been really tired all week, so in short progress on the new Realm comic, is a page and a 1/2, I've planned out a basic storyboard of the next nine pages and I've been working on the primary character illustrations.
Characters in the Realm
Eledor
Aeries
Finn
Arden
and a few others but those four are the primary characters I'll introduce in the first chapter.
Oh right for the Realm comic I'm planning on going for a chapter length of around 25 pages. I doubt the quality will be that great, I'm still learning at the moment. But my brother has actually started giving me some decent criticism of what I've I've done so far, which is helping more then he probably knows.
Anyways, if all goes well I'll have the first three pages up and ready to go up next weekend.
I'm also planning a different kind of comic, that I'm working on the ideas at the moment, I'll let you guys (however many are left be the judge of how good it will be when I eventually put that one up to.
I love Youtube, found some of Iron Maiden's live performances, and I've gotta say they are awesome live, the energy these old guys have is scary. Bruce the singer scales the scaffolding surrounding them at one point, climbs about five metres before he starts pointing out to the crowd leaping around on a small platform, then manages to get down in time to deliver his singing lines.
Even my sister thought they were pretty impressive, for the five seconds she watched them...(more a punk fan)
Anyways, I'm trying my drandest to get better at drawing, I still can't do decent looking 3/4 views of characters, so don't be surprised if I stick to profiles fron and back views of characters, and I'm not to good at drawing hand yet either, though I'm getting better.
Other then that, I'll update the site tomorrow, and next weekend I should be putting up my flash game as well, it should be done by then. I'll put it in the random stuff section when I do. Now I really need some sleep...

Sayonara folks have a good weekend if you can! If you can't well...uh...have good...uh...freetime...yeah

Bahg

Okay's I think I'm going to scale back TFtLP to one comic a week, seeing as I have more time to spend on each one I may try and colour them as well...
Anyways the reason for this is I've started watching TV again(the greatest of all evils) and my brother recently bought an expensive keyboard with the ability to make fairly epic sounding music...also TAFE has decided to plop the job of writing a twenty page feasibility report on my shoulders, and I need to start doing programming tutorials from home, so that I can make zee games that I'm making in my course.
One is a 2d side scroller flash game, that I will try and incorporate some story comics into, based of my Return of Ruin Storyline(the one with mechs and spaceships) the other is a 3d game based of the opening of the Surudush Campaign(The one where Eledor walks into a city and kills mercenaries who slaughtered the entire population of said town)
SO far I have a basic setup for the Flash game, I know what I want to do for it, I just need to start pumping out some content for it, the 3d one is far more complex requiring the use of a game engine, and if anyone tells you modeling a person in 3d is easy kick them for me...
Anyways other then that I think from now on I will have an update every Saturday for the website, though as I am supposedly out of work for nine weeks, I have mondays free to do extra stuff, and yes Brendan I will try and fit in some more gamework for ya.
other then that...I've got nothing...Sayonara folks please visit my website, and tell friends about it, my visits over July were half what they were on June(visits means the amount of people who logged onto the website.)
Have fun!

Blegh!?

Hellos peoples from that place somewhere...
Anyways I've been very slack with my comic strips over the past two weeks, but then I spend at least an hour and a half of my free time over a period of four days watching anime, and because I'm extremely lazy I don't get around to it...anyways today marks an important step in my Tales from the Lettuce patch, from now on I will completely fineline each strip, which means I can more easily colour them in if I so choose.
Other then that not much happening, though I do have to do a 20 page feasibility report , design a 3d game, complete with 3d models, design a flash game, complete with action script...and have to make a film which I can edit, and people are still dropping like flies from my course...Though some are moving onto bigger and better things, others just couldn't be bothered turning up...
Anyways I ain't quitting yet, I'm starting to think that I need to do some upgrading to my computer, I mean its only got a 120GB hard drive on it...(I know it sounds big but when you combine music, videos, lots of games, 250mb patches for said games, it starts looking quite small), and a 256mb graphics card.
For that I need money, so I figure I need to save money, better then I have currently because my current efforts of saving money has thus far been pretty piss poor...
Aside from that BLEGH
Rightio I'm off to update GuardianUniverse.com
Sayonara folks!
