Hello there kids! It's been a while, yes. Things have been happening. We had to put my 13-year-old dog to sleep, the Radiohead trip to Florida was canceled, I started quoting the narrator from the Beast of Yucca Flats, met a bunch of Koreans, and got a new computer!
Also, I finished drawing Cyberpunk Blues 2: Your Fan Club Sucks. Here's the first page in grayscale. CLICK TO EMBIGGEN.
There are gonna be two versions of the comic. The grayscale version is for when it gets printed in Burst Reach 2 some time in the foreseeable future. I'm also doing a colored version to put here on the site. GET EXCITED.
And here's a new piece of art I did, kind of following along the lines of Embrace Infection:
There's some other stuff I've done that you can see on my deviantART page, like a sketch of Robocop that's rather badly colored.
Also, I have acquired two movies that have quickly become new favorites of mine. The first is Shogun Assassin, the Americanization of two Lone Wolf and Cub films from the 70s:
I feel like I need to see more samurai films after watching and falling in love with this. Anyone got any suggestions?
The other movie is Redline, a racing anime that took SEVEN YEARS to make, all hand-drawn, and it is easily the coolest anime ever made:
Everything about this thing is awesome: character design, animation, the soundtrack, the cars, pacing, EVERYTHING. I had the biggest, stupidest grin on my face the whole time I watched it, and now I want to show it to EVERYONE. I feel like it was made especially for me.
That's all I have for you this evening, I'm afraid. Working on sixty ideas at once. Maintaining productivity. I'll try not to drop off the radar for another insane length of time, but I make no promises.
