Bleh

Heya Folks

We've finally got everything back in order, and now I'm standing on a precarious edge at work. To be honest I had a sinking feeling that something like this was happening, just didn't realize it'd be as bad as it was...

And well, if I don't improve, I'll probably be looking for another job at some point...
Bit of an eye opening really...

And so we march on

Heya Folks

Page 26 of my comic is up now, so if you're interested you can go check, its apparantly not to bad, or so I've been told, much to my own surprise.

An update on Captain Tylor the Abridged Series, I screened it in front of a couple friends, and recieved something of a lukewarm reception(to say it lightly), so I'm redoing the first episode from scratch, I'm not planning to take nearly as long with it(probably a month so halfway through June), but its gonna be like twenty times betterer or something. Not that I have anything to show just yet, maybe I'll put up some sound tests for the different characters, or a meet the character thing.

So in other words regular weekly updates of my comic has started again, at the moment it will only be 1 a week, but eventually I'll move up to two a week, and hopefully eventually five a week. the pages on the whole aren't that complex and if I get my act into gear I can easily get a fair few done in a short period of time(maybe).

Anywhoisitanyway, I bought a new DS last week, and well haven't really done much with it yet, and I went and visited the old Melbourne Zoo, saw a bunch of animals, looked like a hippy nerd thing...or something and uh complained a lot about only having four hours of sleep. Then paid for everyone's tea at an expensive(maybe average priced) restaurant, which I do want to paid back on guys, $158 ain't anything to sniff at, *sniff, I would be less annoyed if we weren't only a short walk from McDonalds(cheap food FTW), but I digress.

I also bought a bunch of mangas and anime while visiting Borders.

I have to say my manga collection has effectively ballooned out into a massive monstrosity since I got my job, my Anime collection now includes
Complete Series:
Gundam Wing/Endless Waltz
Gundam Seed/Destiny
Big O
Claymore(may have a 2nd season out yet)
Ouran High School(same for this one)
.hack/sign
Sayuiki(haven't actually watched it yet
Disagea
Excel Saga
FMP/Fumoffu
Captain Tylor/OVA(this is what my abridged series will be based on)
Devil May Cry
School Rumble
Samurai Deeper Kyo(watched the first episode and haven't bothered with the rest)
Gundam 0083
Gundam 08th Team

As you can see I'm a bit of a Gundam Fan, when I was tossing up ideas when trying to decide what show to do an abridged Series on, I thought about doing Gundam Seed, or Wing, but people had already beat me to the punch, i settled for FMP, but just as I had finished a third of the first episode, I found someone had again beaten me to the punch, a little sad I switched to Captain Tylor, a series that I really do love, but I had lost my steam for a while, and work started tiring me out a heck of a lot. So nothing happened for a while, then I finally started work on it, and well yeah the result was less then stella, so back to the drawing board. I'm going to tightly script this one unlike my last attempt, where I was sorta coming up with it on the fly, and basically forgot the whole parody part of the concept of abridging.

Anywho that's enough from me...

The Realm

Heya folks

Just thought I'd lay some ground work for what will be my next comic work after Sandhurst Academy comes to a close(when I get myself back into gear of course and Sandhurst Academy will actually have an end to it)

Anywho this work is one I've been working on for several years now, which Sandhurst Academy is meant mainly to be practice before I start this one.
The world of the Realm is located in a sort of mirrored Medieval Europe(so all the countries are back to front on the map) and is centered on the Chandrillan Empire, which was directly inspired by the late Byzantine Empire, which I started doing some reading on after I played Medieval Total War and found them to be my favorite team.
It focuses on the adventures of an atypical Knight and his idealistic squire as they journey across this vast country, encountering foes and allies as they go.

The atypical knight is named Eledor, a white haired somewhat mercenary, gruff, and distant veteran of a number of battles and wars. And his squire is named Aeries, who is a red haired idealistic individual who strives to change Eledor's attitude for the better and to help those in need around them whenever they can.

I'm not really going to reveal to much about them as of yet, as it could spoil the story, and we can't have that :)

Anywho other then that Sandhurst Academy will resume updating on Sunday the 16th of May I have got a number of pages done in advance, and should be able to produce them at a more steady rate, for now I will be sticking to one a week, but that number will go up as I do have some things I want to try in this odd and fairly quirky story I'm doing with it, and I don't plan on spending five years working on the one thing.

Captain Tylor the Abridgination, will be up by the end of this week, and if I don't get it done...I'll....uh...promise to get it done next week or something...yeah...

Other then that I'll possibly be posting up some character pictures I've been working on. And I've been racking up a few as I go along.

Anywhoisit that's enough from me, and stuff
