TABLET!

Got my new tablet today and it works great! It isn't a brand name but it works great for what I want to use it for. Check out this drawing that I made using my tablet and Pixen. If I can figure out Pixen then maybe I will put up some animations!

EDIT: 12.31.10 Sorry Pixen, but you suck. Now that I have Pixelmator, I won't be using you anymore. But for the time, you were more than acceptable.

Red Shirt

Here's a new comic that I thought of yesterday and finished about 10 minutes ago.
(I sure hope that this process doesn't take as long once I have my tablet...also, I hope that the quality of my drawings gets better.)

A Year? Oh, Crap!

Well, looks like it has been almost a year since I have posted at all. Hopefully that will change soon enough! I bought a tablet today from sellout.woot.com in the hopes of a) being able to count bacteria easier and b) being able to try out drawing again. As some of you may know (not that anyone reads this, especially since I haven't updated in a year) I used to make my comics with MS Paint and a mouse. It sort of sucked.

But now that I am thinking about it there was something calming about the repeated motion of erasing pixel by pixel. Perhaps, if I remember how to upload pictures and all that jazz (oh, there were so many steps!) then I will post a new comic today.

Graduate School!

I'm waiting for photoshop to work on my computer so I have been putting off a new comic. Also, I've been wrapped up in summer theatre, looking for an apartment, and waiting to get into grad school...which, but the way, I am in! Fall of 2008 -- WPI -- Materials Science and Engineering. Yay!

I've also had a real job so I've been going to bed earlier and getting home later. During the school year I'll hopefully have a job too, but not this same one. I like money. Money is good. And since I think that I found myself a pretty sweet apartment I will need money to pay rent.

Sorry I've been such a loser and not updated.

Easter Egg?

I'll take this assist trophy any day! Or, even better, how about an easter egg? Ya, that sounds nice...how about the "Boom" music video? Really any of them will do...except NO Bowie!


OK, so for those of you who have seen my attempt at another comic know that I am being lazy and just taking the first panel of that one and using it here...but I promise that I will eventually finish that one.

Late

Oh Snap!

In my last post I mentioned that I would be updating in a week...well it has been over a month and I have gained a sister-in-law but not more time. I still have one in the bag so to speak though. Just waiting for the right motivation....

Updateage

So if you aren't using Safari (or Webkit) I suggest that you do so because my comics actually look better. No, really, they do. I have Safari for Windows on my computer now (downloaded it a mere couple of hours ago--not-so-closet Mac fan) and just glanced at my blog randomly.

It is mildly glorious.

You know what else is glorious?

1) Gloria, of course. ({} Fan - *heart*)

2) Having someone who does a real comic (www.bubblegumheroes.com) show interest in your random lower level web-comic. Much, much respect and love.

3) Making out with a boy while watching a Johnny Depp movie.

P.S. I'm working on another comic so check back, probably in about a week, and it should be up. It is taking a while seeing as I try to be as perfect as I can while using Paint and a mouse...sometimes only a trackpad. :-\
