Questions I Should Not Answer

Sorry for the recent lack of updates. You can probably list the usual reasons yourself, generally lumped under "real life."

I am slowly getting past some of the things that have been soaking up my spare time, so hopefully I'll be able to get some more art and writing done soon.

Does this high a score mean I'm a slut?

Nearly 100,000 hits!

I was just reading some of the stats on my page and I'm just amazed, humbled, and vaguely disturbed that I'm nearing the 100k mark. I know I want to do something to celebrate but as usual most of the things I can think of are overly ambitious.

"Men In, Women Out" got one of the most positive responses I've ever had, so I'm thinking of doing a comic again. I wish I were fast enough and good enough to do an actual web comic but I'm just not there yet. Practice makes perfect I suppose.

Speaking of "Men In, Women Out" I'm surprised that not a single person mentioned the cameo appearance in the comic. I didn't think it was all that subtle so I can't decide if everyone saw it and just shrugged it off or if no one noticed...?

Anyway, I am leaning towards comic-y ideas. I just hope you will be patient with me because I'm sure it will take me a while to do such a thing. The question is what to do...in my long-ago 40k poll TG was the most popular but I'm leaning towards something more Circe-like. Maybe TG+TF?

So, Um, It Has Been a While

I'm sorry to have been gone so long, mainly because I really enjoy doing silly stuff. I will not bore everyone with all the reasons why I have not had time for so-called art lately, other than to say that real life has to come first.

There are art reasons for the delay that might be worth pointing out. I am still trying to learn how to do something more cartoony, which you can see in "Men In, Women Out". I still need to develop a style that is simple but nice to look at and doesn't take a ridiculous amount of time to do. I like taking the time to do more artsy pieces but on the other hand sometimes I want to tell a story and don't have the time to do all the shading and so on that it would take to do a full-blown comic book style.

I am still trying to learn how to ink digitally. I'm not happy with the results I got from Adobe Illustrator...but that's more likely operator error than anything to do with the software. Still it took a very long time to get results that I really don't like. Sigh...

Anyway, now that this monkey is off my back...um, I mean now that "Men In, Women Out" is done...I will probably turn my attention back to writing for a while. I will probably post a few things here later to see what y'all think.

Thanks for all the views...and more importantly, thanks for your patience.

40,000 hits poll created

Hi All!

To my utter astonishment, I've passed 40,000 hits. Thank you, everyone, for continuing to view my silly stuff. I'm constantly amazed by your support and very thankful for it.

I decided to try a 3-month subscription and had to play with my new toys, so there is a poll for you to answer if you like. The poll lets you tell me what you'd like to see for a 40k image -- I'm really curious to see what you folks prefer. I have some guesses based on what images are more popular but this is your chance to tell me directly what I should do....um...what I should draw, that is!

I actually have several ideas that I've sketched out already, so I'll probably continue developing those until I see what direction the polling goes.

Thanks again!
Circe
