Comment on page 542 - SCAAAAARY! of Far Out There
Blitzkrieg1701, 21 May 2013 03:04 am
You know, it's been a while since we've seen Alphonse cowering with fear. TOO LONG, I SAY!
Anyway, by the time you read this, I'll have been at Animazement for a day already. Obviously, you are encouraged to check out Conventional Wisdom's comics on the subject when they go online sometime next week (hopefully Wednesday) BUT, did you know you can keep tabs on whatever I'm up to RIGHT NOW? Keep an eye on my Twitter or the Conventional Wisdom Facebook page for all manner of pictures and inane comments and generally just what I'm doing at that moment! It's like YOU'RE REALLY THERE!!!

Comment on page 541 - it's always something of Far Out There
Blitzkrieg1701, 20 May 2013 12:29 am
You know, it's sad that I honestly can't remember the last time I had a page finished and loaded in advance like this. Probably the last time I was at a con, since that seems to be the only reason I build up any sort of buffer anymore. So, yeah. I'm writing this Sunday night before jumping right back into the drawing frenzy. Hopefully, by the time I leave for Animazement Wednesday, I'll have Friday and next Tuesday's pages finished and ready to go online too. Cross those fingers.
Beyond that, I don't really have anything so say, or at least no time to think of anything... other than this: by the time you see this, IT'LL BE MY BIRTHDAY! Happy Birthday Tooooooo Meeeeee!!!

Comment on Not quite Animazement yet of Conventional Wisdom
Blitzkrieg1701, 19 May 2013 06:46 pm
Yeah, that's about right.
So, yeah! Animazement is this weekend! As always, I HOPE to have a new batch of comics finished and online by Wednesday, but no promises.
IN THE MEANTIME, be sure to keep an eye on the Facebook page or my Twitter for silly pictures and random comments and- GAH! I mean UP TO THE MINUTE LIVE COVERAGE OF THE CONVENTION! Yeah, that's what I meant!

Comment on page 540 - NO, TRIGGER of Far Out There
Blitzkrieg1701, 17 May 2013 03:50 am
Dang, it feels WEIRD not doing a voting incentive along with this page... Speaking of which, trying to get the next two weeks of pages done in advance is, well, kinda HARD. I don't really have enough spare brain cells to say much of anything interesting at the moment...
Well, okay, one thing: the screen is showing what Alphonse's visual feed, meaning that Layla can't actually SEE Trigger, only hear him. This matters 'cos, let's face it, she'd be a LOT less snarky right now if she could actually see the poor lil' guy right now. *sniff* HE JUST WANTS TO USE HIS DRAWINGS FOR SOMETHING, DANG IT!!!

Comment on Crazy Crossover Tiem! - page 5 of Conventional Wisdom
Blitzkrieg1701, 14 May 2013 11:12 pm
*GASP* I'm actually referencing an anime that's airing and popular RIGHT NOW?!?!?!?!? I know, I'm scared too!
But yeah, strange as it sounds, I've actually broken out of my hermit-like ways enough to get into Attack on Titan. Obviously, I had to work it into our crossover-fest, right? Fun fact: the Squid Girl aspect is actually the SECOND idea I had. Originally, I was going to make this a Madoka Magika reference, with a giant Kyubey peeking over the wall... until I discovered somebody already DID that a few weeks ago. It's a lot better looking than anything I could pull off in a night, too. Thus, last minute gear change.
I'm actually glad I got forced into this version, though. As obvious as "Oh, Kyubey is eeeeevil" may be, the chance to show Squid Girl as terrifying as she THINKS she is always wins. And, darn it, this really did turn out well, didn't it?
So, yeah, this is the last of the crossover comics, as ANIMAZEMENT IS NEXT WEEK! OMG!!! If all goes well, there'll be a simple filler page up here next Wednesday, an Animazement 2013 cover page on Friday, and BIG GOOEY GLOBS OF CONVENTION COMIC GOODNESS ON WEDNESDAY (or whenever I actually get them finished)

Comment on page 539 - SO much trash of Far Out There
Blitzkrieg1701, 14 May 2013 03:20 am
Oh look! The Cap'n still exists! Hi there!
Speaking of which, an explanation just in case it's not sufficiently clear what's happening: Tabitha is using Alphonse's projection to relay all the communication between her and the ship to Avatar and Layla. So that's The Cap'n talking through Alphonse, not Tabitha (I thought about including a little doodle of his head in the speech bubble to make it clearer, but it didn't really work)
So, as I mentioned earlier, I'm having to put Voting Incentives on hold for the next month or two, so today is the last The Killer Station of Deadly Doom for a while. I happen to think I found a fairly awesome note to pause on, though. Go see and enjoy!

Layla's got good reason to be apprehensive. The last time they went poking around in garbage, she nearly got torn apart by robots.
So, in my rough draft, the panels in this page were shaped to look like a big trash can. Get it? Alas, when the speech bubbles were factored in, you couldn't really make out the shape anymore, so I ditched it. A pity, 'cos I don't really get a chance to do pages like that much anymore.
Anyway, we're getting closer and closer to the Voting Incentive Hiatus, so enjoy a fairly awesome one while you still can!!!

Comment on page 537 - It goes "beep" when there's stuff of Far Out There
Blitzkrieg1701, 08 May 2013 12:07 am
I don't think it's so much "tired" as "bored". Bridget just isn't meant for slow, tedious tasks. She's a girl of ACTION.
Anyway, while there's no way I'll be able to wrap the whole Killer Station of Deadly Doom story before the incentives have to go on hiatus, I AM going to be able to pause it on a fairly awesome point. TEASER!!!

Anyway, ANIMAZEMENT IS UPON US ONCE AGAIN! Hopefully, we'll have a nice new batch of comics right here for you come Wednesday... but if not, just keep checking back here, as usual.
ALSO! If you're just checking this page during the weekend of AZ itself, you should also check out the Conventional Wisdom Facebook page and my Twitter for all manner of pictures and silly anecdotes FROM THE FRONT LINES OF THE CON!
