Take THAT Semester!

Wow. 1 more semester left.

A True Story: Fajita Night

Hey dear! How about we get some of these for the fajitas?

Aren't those supposed to be spicy? You can get them but don't put them in mine.

Don't worry. You'll never know they were around.

Shannon (OC): Make sure you cook that habanero seperately!

Don't worry! I remember.

Taste test time!

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Hey dear, how's dinner coming--

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

There, there.

I'm going to try and sautee them to see if that makes them less spicy.

Sizzle

Dinner's almost ready.

Oh good I'm starv--

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Yum

Pretty hungry right now...

CTN was a blast! Met great people and caught up with other great people! I was really glad that I went.

Moment of truth though: I didn't really hand out the comic. I got cold feet. It was riddled with problems and I realized that I didn't want it to represent me. I'll be working on it though. I see it as more of an outline now. A first draft. Stay tuned...

I'll be at CTN on Saturday

I'll be driving out to CTN in Burbank tomorrow morning with Scott Gwynn and Josh Talbot (sorry Josh, I don't know your blog's URL), and will be there on Saturday, wandering the aisles and feeling diminuitive and inadequate. In preparation I made a (very) mini comic, and printed out about 30. If you're there and want one, let me know and I'll give you one. If you're not going and want one, I can give out however many are left over.

I found the whole process to be both exciting and frustrating. There are only about 3 panels in the whole thing that I actually like, but I learned some lessons and will definitely be doing more of these. I loved working in ink. But there's so many problems with it, things I would have fixed and tightened if I hadn't tried to do it all in a couple days. I'm almost too embarrassed to have anyone see these, but we must start somewhere right? Big thanks to Jake Parker for the good advice earlier this week.

Oh, and I'll be posting the whole thing when I get back.

Hope to see everyone at CTN!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween is A'Coming...

I love watercolor. I'm rubbish at it, but slowly improving.

Lesson learned: It's better to pencil in orange than magenta when planning to watercolor on top.

The next stuff was done at BYU Independent Study entirely in Flash with a large dash of inspiration from Emmanuel Briand (don't ask me why everything doesn't format together correctly; ask Google). The items are intended as carnival prizes in a game.
