Concepts and A Kindled Flame

Maybe.
I should just consider this my sunday blog... Because I usually find myself blogging on sundays anyways.

"yeah... no not really"

Any-whos, to update on my works.
This whole week has been COMPLETELY unproductive in terms of me and my art.
I found myself mostly in the city with a bunch of my friends and contemplating on halloween costumes for a party. But in terms of concepts and ideas, I've bled out a couple more on my fun little book of concepts.


The book that I hardly touch. I've had it for... I'd figure almost two or three years now. With a set of my ideas and stories and what-not. Not a lot has happened to it since... I find myself focusing more on perfecting my art than perfecting my stories. Which I'll definitely need to work on as time goes by.
But I'm happy I added on more depth to this story I'm doing dealing with cloning and the the controversies of it all. I've had the story for a while now but there's so much I want to add to perfect it for everything to just work through.
I titled it "Clone Wars" around 2004-2005 when my ideas were at it's infancy. Which unfortunately it still is. But now I feel like the title would just sound completely uninspired with what I'm trying to give off in this piece so it's in the works. I even made my first serious comic book under it.

"Oh and also"

The New York Comic-Con is coming up soon!

Well, not really... in like 100 something days

"I forget..."


All I know is that I got an email from them telling me the updates and the countdown and whatnot and I realized.

"I can make an impression on the artist alley!"

I have... like 100 something days to work on this new sketchbook I planned.
Which is almost four months of me, buying this new sketchbook and making comic panels and short story strips and pieces to show them my talent. Whether I shine or not. Or simply just blink a couple of blinding whites, I have nothing to lose and gain only the critiques of the comic industry men themselves.

"I have to do it!"

The flame burns brightest at the spark of opportunity.

LOL omg, i'll come with you to each artist, obviously. but i think they ask you to leave your sketchbook and pick it up later?

or maybe that is only when you want a drawing in your sketchbook. you'd know better than me.

hopefully you'll be better dressed this year LOL.
