Characters: Cel, Dar, Ein

I did mention that people died last comic, didn’t I?

So this makes one on the “confirmed dead” list. RIP, Dar, alongside your NECA Portal Gun replica with which you replaced your perfectly functional arm.

And one for “confirmed new characters”, that being Cel’s new protege Ein. (Not sure what their batchname is yet, mind – Technoraptors are bred in batches and tend to be named as such. Dar thus being “mit’ren’DAR”, and Cel being “CEL’gah’dis’.)

…also come to think, I’m not sure if I’ve actually *shown* Cel’s propensity to play MMOs and such anywhere in here. They’re a little more fleshed out in some of my 24 hour comics that I’ve not posted anywhere (but that are canon and that I really should post.)

Turns out that when you go “hmmm; if I clip the original ending for this strip I can probably still time and it’ll still work fine”, sometimes you then finish the art, take another look, and go “well crud, this DOES need another panel or two after all.”

Anyway hopefully I can wrap this tomorrow (today) once I’m done work and meal prep; working with Clip Studio for drawing comics is definitely still in the teething stages of “nailing down my workflow/rebuilding all my reference assets from scratch/figuring out how long it takes to make one of these things.” Some definite pluses though over my old process of drawing it all in Flash; I’m in love with the results so far.

Importantly though I’m making content again and having fun doing so, so there’s that!

24 Hour Comics Day 2014 Fundraising

So it’s getting to that time of year where I hunker down for 24 hours straight and draw a 24 hour comic at Happy Harbor Comics up in Edmonton as part of their 24 Hour Comics Day event.

(Specifically, this Saturday).

And as is usual, the event is run by Happy Harbor as a fundraiser for Literacy Alberta and Boys & Girls Club/Big Brothers Big Sisters of Edmonton, which is where this post comes in.

Today and Thursday (and heck, let’s say next week too), I’m going to be doing some dirt cheap character doodlesketches to further raise funds to donate to the cause – for the measly sum of 5 dollars you can get a colored digital sketch of whatever character you wish, my own or otherwise.
