I’m aware that I’m not even three pages in and have a huge delay between pages. I really have no excuse, but I’ll go ahead and in it on a computer reformatting, numerous projects at school and a commissioned comic.

The page is still coming of course, just slowly, but it’s looking good. To the left you can see one of the panels thus far. Dash is obviously saying something cheeky. Mara is not amused.

As for projects, due to a complete computer reformatting, I lost a bunch of essays I thought I’d had backed up, so I need to rewrite several. I also have a haunted house recording I am doing in my audio-class. It’s a lot of fun and I am considering posting it online later for no other reason but to let others poke fun at it.

Meanwhile, the commissioned comic is for my buddy James and his comic, The Path. I am doing a story featuring his character, Wolf.

What’s neat is that I get to mess with drawing monsters in this one. Click the panel below to see the first half of the first page, or you can view a sketch of the monster I’ll be using. It was pretty fun to draw and this whole story looks to be a big departure from what I normally do, with an exception for the covers I do for The Path once in a while.

From the next page I’m working on. Generally, I try to draw the entire page on one sheet of paper, though often times I’ll scrap single panels since I know I can do them better on another pass and paper. These two panels were first drafts and I’m happy with them. This time around there were only two panels that I feel like changing. That notation "flip" is one of my design-notes. I actually tend to scribble all over the page. I actually don’t need to flip the panel, since I noted that before I drew the panel afterwards.

Anyway, are you guys enjoying these glimpses of pages before they get posted? Hopefully I’ve not posted anything *too* spoilerific.

Yes, yes, lame of me I know. Unfortunately, I have some higher priorities. First off, these are the last few weeks of class and I have much do in each of them. I also have several commissions, one of which is doing some designs for a game.

But, have a sketch, expect at least a couple sketchbook posts next week.
