Getting over the Plague

Well I have had a nasty cold this week and I am slowly getting over it. It is so nice to be able to breath again. So artwork has been going a bit slow due to not wanting to take the chance of killing a page due to the ick and sneezing and other such abominable stuff that goes along with the crud that I have. At least all the pain is gone.

On a good note I have finally named two more characters in the comic I am slowly working on as well as have a good start on a male model done so that I can work on costume designs for the three:

Mourn - His more then likely will be the most complicated because it is Mourn but it will make it quite fun.
Zur'ril - He might be a bit more traditional, which will be more understandable when the first few pages of the comic go up.
Vorn'dax - His will more then likely have a few "bold" elements to it but he will not be as "flamboyant" as someone else has been.

Why Zur'ril and Vorn'dax stick around with Mourn I have no idea, crazy elf that he is.

New Header soon!

Well while I have been here in sunny Florida I decided to do some sketching so I should have a lovely new header picture up here soon. I will be working on it Thursday or Friday after I get back. I like it so far so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. I will more then likely post the sketch when it is done since I'm not sure about the lettering yet till I get home.

Will hopefully have a design for Mourn's cloths this week as well, ran out of ink for the reference pics I wanted to bring along to Florida so didn't get a chance to work on him. On another note for the comic working on names for two other characters in the comic I think they will be staying around for a bit as long as Mourn doesn't get them killed. Which is is a distinct possiblity crazy elf. I have to figure out their wardrobe as well but I have a few ideas rolling around.

The Artist in Me

Well folks I have decided to draft up a nice art blog here, why might you ask...well when you have an itch it must be scratched right? I came up with a crazy idea for a Valentine's drawing... a very strange Valentine's day drawing idea and it went poof and just kind of exploded. What was suppose to be a mere three page comic is now growing into a substantially larger project and I can say that it doesn't bother me in the slightest.

The few people at work that I have told about this little project of mine really want to see it, which is fun. I know that Liz wants to see it since it does include a character of hers in it which will make it all the more grand.

So the work that I have been sketching on prompted me to start a blog to put up my thoughts as I work on the tedious process of creating a comic...which now will no longer be done for Valentine's Day, maybe I will be able to finish a page or two to put up as a start. Who knows maybe doing this one comic idea will spawn new ideas for comics...which could be dangerous diving into the strange mind of Mourn, the main character in the comic.
