Comment on Ch. 6 * Pg. 13 * (sketch) Get on with it! of HEARD
BlinkyTheRed, 16 Nov 2009 05:47 pm
I know it’s just a sketch, but it’s better than nothing? My computer kersploded but I think I’ve got it back to work.. I’ve installed Manga Studio and it’s running OK, though I haven’t had a chance to reinstall Photoshop yet.. lettering in MS is way harder than expected. I don’t like the way it looks, either. :/ Oh well. I’ll go back and fix this page in several ways when I can.

Blaarrgh. I’m sorry about the slowness of updates. My wrists aren’t any better. I’ve been working fulltime. I’m going to go back to part-time this week, hopefully, which will give me some more time to draw and think. Wooo~! It’ll be nice to get a big fat paycheck though..

Anyway, uh, I took a job in South Korea. I’m currently in the process of doing the visa paperwork. If everything goes according to plan, I will be relocating right after Christmas. I guess we’ll see. I’ll post updates as they happen.

I’m really sorry about the slow updates. I’m going to say it again– updates may be slow for a while but I WON’T just quit on the story. I’ll finish Heard even if it kills me.

Sorry for the long delay. I've started working a temporary part-time job, which will soon become a full-time job for a few weeks.. all while looking for a real job. And my wrists aren't any better. They're worse.

HEARD WILL ONLY UPDATE ON MONDAYS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

It can't be helped. Between the current job, future job negotiations, and wrist pain, I can't do better than that. If you want to read the news as it develops, feel free to friend me on <a href="http://nenadi.livejournal.com">livejournal</a>-- no permission necessary.

(If you feel the need to flame me or whine in comments or emails, please just kindly STFU instead. I don't owe you anything, and you're a jerk if you think otherwise. Cool people emails and comments are still appreciated, though! And don't encourage the trolls by arguing with them, it's not worth your time.)

Oops, I drew this instead of the page. But I can't show you the full image. Trust me, it's pretty neat.

Anyway, thanks for reading. Next time it'll be a real page, I promise.

Confession. I've drawn this page, and the last two pages, while wearing a wrist brace. I need to go back and shade it but my arms are just aching too badly right now. I'm sorry. I'll finish it up later, really.

There's no voting incentive, cause .. I need a break from drawing. :/ Sorry and thanks for reading.

See ya Thursday!
Comment on Ch. 6 * Pg. 10 * Vlad waits for no one of HEARD

Geeze, Vlad. Way to ruin the mood. Jerk.

<a href="http://topwebcomics.com/vote/6585/default.aspx" target="_blank">VOTE </a>to see Romy's reaction to this page.

See ya Monday, space cadets. Spread the word about <a href="http://yaoivsyuri.com" target="_blank">Yaoi Vs Yuri</a>, if you would. If you wouldn't, SURPRISE yourself and do it anyway!

(Also, my Smackjeeves layout has changed. Hope you like it or don't hate it too much. :C if you do.. sorry?)

I actually am really informed when it comes to skinheads-- I've had my share of skin friends, so trust me, I know.

Hannah doesn't know a racist skinhead from a true one, though. ;)

I'm back! Thanks for being patient while I recovered from a badass cold. I'm feeling a lot better.

<a href="http://topwebcomics.com/vote/6585/default.aspx" target="_blank">VOTE</a> to see a bonus comic - Freudian slips were never so fun!

This page goes out to the memory of Yoshito Usui, beloved artist of Shin-chan. I grew up watching Shin-chan in Spain, went on to collect all of the published volumes of manga I could find.. and I'm really sad to hear that the story will never end the way he had in mind. :c Don't know Shinchan? <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk1cTeTa6Dk" target="_blank">Check out my favorite opening</a>. (Funnier if you know Japanese, oh well!)

Also, if you're an artist who attends conventions (or you're friends with one), don't forget to check out <a href="http://yaoivsyuri.com">Yaoi Vs Yuri</a>! &lt;3 Thanks.

Sorry for the missed update on Monday. Life got in the way. Pesky life!

<a href="http://topwebcomics.com/vote/6585/default.aspx" target="_blank">VOTE </a>to see a brand new "Ask a Character" comic! The topic is a big SCANDALOUS, but I think it's still Safe for Work. Just don't read the comic out loud to your coworkers.

ALSO! I recently launched a new site. Those of you who have met me in person at a convention will see something rather familiar. If you're an artist who goes to conventions to sell your own art, DEFINITELY check it out! You gotta get involved asap! Here: <a href="http://yaoivsyuri.com" target="_blank">YAOI VS. YURI</a>

Let me know what you think. See ya Monday!
Comment on Ch. 6 * Pg. 7 * Perhaps TOO steamy of HEARD
BlinkyTheRed, 03 Sep 2009 02:12 am
Surprise! I didn't think my eyes would be good enough to draw a page today, but they actually felt great, so I drew! YAY! There may be some fluctuations in my vision which keep me from drawing over the next few weeks, but hopefully I won't be missing my updates. Just in case, you should all send me guest comics!

<a href="http://topwebcomics.com/vote/6585/default.aspx" target="_blank">VOTE</a> to see a comic where Romy responds to the question: "Is it just Vlad, or do you get grabby with everyone you sleep with?" (Image involves a bit of over-the-clothes booby grabbing, possibly NSFW)

You know, if you want me to draw a silly little comic like this about something in particular, you can go over to the <a href="http://sage-comics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&amp;t=343" target="_blank">Heard Forum and ask a question in the "Ask a Character" thread</a>! Just an idea!
