Down and out in Wonderland




This one’s depressing as shit and was pretty hard to finish. I posted it yesterday... then in a bout of self doubt i removed it... which pretty much sums up how i've been feeling this week. It really didn’t help to be writing and drawing a comic about it either.

In the future I’m going to focus on more positive things.

Nazi hate



This is just a little piece of animation I did over the past week. I’m still trying to learn flash so there are a lot of problems with the actual animation that need to be fixed. I think I’m going to leave it as is though, since most of the problems stem from a lack of planning, and do some new scenes.


I’m going to be moving to Ottawa in September so I’m going to try to get a demo reel out by the end of the summer to shop myself around with. For now though, I just need to pump out a shit-ton of animation.


Cheers

Eat like a man, man


Here's another story for the mini comic I'm putting together. I actually had more to say on this but its tough to put much substance into a two page story.

I have a good idea of what the overall design of the mini is going to be, though I'm still working it out. Its going to be about 24 pages, hand stitched and have a card stock cover. For the cover I'm thinking of using just a black print job on colored paper and using a nice marker or paint to color in something on the cover to give it a little finesse. I was originally going to print it on letter sized paper folded over but after doing a few print tests I think I'm going to move it up to legal. Its just not as crammed which gives it a more inviting feel.

This has been a really rewarding project for me. I feel like I'm working towards something for the first time in a long time.
