Hello there.

I regret to say that my run didn't end with a bang, but somewhat of a whimper.

During that time, I only managed to do 10 pages. I kinda feel I could have done more than that, but I believe many factors were involved, such as working on a 11" x 17" format (which frankly isn't an excuse, since one of the guys who finished all 24 pages worked on twice the size and in color), and the fact that while I had a good start, I pretty much started losing momentum as the day went by.

To be fair, about 30 people participated; only 6 did all 24 pages.

On the other hand, it kinda gave me a good retrospective of what I'm capable at the moment and gave me room to experiment; perhaps see what I'd have to do a next time in order to do better and what I can do with my regular work.

On Monday (or hopefully Sunday), I'll go scan the pages to show ya what I did.

Depending on the general reception of said pages, I might find time to finish the other 14 pages.

Anyway, dead tired, so heading to bed right now.

G'night.

As I'm writing this, I'm both nervous and excited at said challenge at SCAD Atlanta tomorrow at 10 AM. Link: [link]

There's gonna be some prizes involved, but I'm doing it mostly because of the experience.

I would document this if I could, but since I'll be busy as Hell that day (working on 24 pages of comics that is), the most I can say is that by Saturday afternoon I should post what I made during that day.

Until then, I'm gonna catch some rest, since I'll be needing it tomorrow...

See ya Saturday!

Indie power once again flexes his mighty and underrated muscle!

I'll go straight to the point. This game is freaking gorgeous:

I'm already sold by the animation; from the looks of it, gameplay's gonna be awesome too and it's gonna be available soon on Xbox 360 as a download. (one more point for Xbox 360; sorry PS3!).

The main website also states that an animated film's on the works, and if the animation's as marvelous as the game, I SO want to check it out as well.

Ustream worn out its glitter really fast; it's likely to do when you realize it's just another outlet for popularity whoring.

I MIGHT run them still, but won't bother about freebies and that othe crap; got other things to worry anyway (school and job hunting among them).

That said...

Well, I recently discovered Ustream, and in hopes of becoming more active Art-wise, I decided to make a channel of my own:

Now, my current plans is to run it the times I'm at at SCAD (which should be on weekend nights; more than likely Saturdays) while working on something, 1 to 2 hours minimum, all night max. And I kinda want to keep it around PG-13, so for the love of God, don't ask (you know what I mean...).

Now, I do have the following questions that would help me do a successful "show":

- Will you be interested in watching in the first place?
- Other than randomly working on photoshop or similar, is there something in particular that you'd like me to do (sketches, how-to's, online commission/advicing in drawings, reviews on comics/other people's work/manga/movies, etc?).
- Would you like me to do an occassional Q&A session? With the webcam on?
- Would you want me to talk in said streams?
- Would you be willing to listen to the music that I listen? Or you'd prefer to rely on online radio?
- Any other suggestions?

All feedback will be appreciated.
