Site problems and ......... Dream

Firstly, The Rarebox, my Portfolio, and other little sites in the World 4-2verse outside of this blog have had their layouts eaten. Host Xepher.net is on a new server now, and all my PHP tags have to be edited on each of my pages to work again.

Of course, this was just something that happened to happen. I <3 my host!

Firstly, though, login issues need to be resolved. Don't expect an overnight fix, kiddies. Reguardless of how soon I get to access my files again, I have quite a bunch of files to edit! The Rarebox will come first since that's my baby! Even if I haven't made an update there myself in months!

For the dream part, two nights ago I had the darndest dream that a bunch of my characters were in a Disgaea-like Strategy RPG battle, and Meeko was dispatched as a human! While I was dreaming, I thought he was the cutest little boy in the whole entire world! I loved that design and was so proud of myself for it!

Of course, that was in my dream. I still remembered what Human*Meeko looked like when I woke up, but.... He looked exactly like four-year-old version of Rossiu from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann!

... wow!

Anihoo, I've tried these past two nights to draw him, but to no avail. I guess he was drawn in a style I could only render in my dreams! Ahahaha!

I <3 Caramel Sauce!

El Tigre got cancelled!

I only got to catch a few episodes of this, but It was a good showwww! Manny Rivera and Frida were so full of awesomesauce!

Another good nicktoon bites the dust.

Come to think of it... Whatever happened to Class of 3000? Did Lil 'D annoy the show out of existance? Did Sunny Bridges run out of song cues? I liked those song cues!

And why am I drawing so much Chowder?


I should probably post more character-obsessional stuff on this blog, but that would make me look like a dork!

In other news, I love caramel sauce!

Oh Snap!

Well, my site didn't get much of an update, but I DID spend some part of this day shuffling some files around and added six more favorites to my portfolio gallery, which was now bumped up to being W42's new main page since W42 is now here on blogspot and everything I own aside this, the portfolio, and the Rarebox is now consierably useless! Yay!

Much cleanup still has to be done, but I'll get to it. Eventually.



Did I mention how awesome that new Chowder show is? Well, yeah, I suck at drawing fat kids, but that's beside the point!

A long way goes a New Direction

Hopefully I'll stick to my word this time. After talking with Dustin of Nancy Bombs fame about our ideas last night, I gave it a lot of thought and decided I want to restart my Evo comics from scratch, therefore leaving Lost Resort as just a scrapped pilot. That thing has really left me with nowhere to expand from there.

I don't know where to start it anymore, but once i get cracking on it (I aim to start on December but no promises), it should be around 20 pages per issue and will be in black and white. This should make production less aggrivating and the final product will be a lot cheaper to print. Also, I could always color the pages in the future should I want to do a special edition- or hire someone to color the pages for me when I have money to pay them.

I'm still doubting these plans, but I'm also doubting the series as it stands now. I like it, but it's really not going anywhere and every attempt I've made at bridging it to what I want out of the series has been very unmotivating.

Thanks for your support, everybody!

And thank you, Dustin!

A general update

I scurried over to Carl Greenblatt's blog several times over after watching the premiere of his show "Chowder" (I fell in love with it so quickly it isn't funny) and afterwards, figured I should update my own.

I've drawn mostly Billy and Mandy and Crash of the Titans artworks since ... I think August or something. You'll find most of those in my DeviantArt gallery This past week I've drawn almost nothing, though. I've just picked up Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness for the PSP the morning after I've completed Final Fantasy Tactics for the same system. Strat RPGs eat souls, but most people know that already... most people who actually PLAY strategy RPGs. So that's pretty much where my life has been. I've also aquired The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations, and Tomb Raider Anniversary. I didn't get to play those yet. I wish Chowder was a video game already.

You could also tell from my DA gallery that I've been playing Crash fo the Titans, too!

But I've also taken up cooking in the last two months. I can cook a mean fettuchini alfredo! It's a kick in the mouth!

But anyway... art update? I began working some on my Evo series again. and yes, Deres gets... what... ANOTHER MAKEOVER? I swear it'll take at least another decade to get the next comic off the ground. I still wonder if I should continue from the pilot or begin a whole new story, since... well, I dunno. I'll make a profile post of him another day.

I wanna go back to my gameing.





And here's a random Diddy Kong. The hat jabs a site I go to.
