Deviation Actions
....said a friend to the creator of the feces powered helicopter. But enough Yahtzee quotes, onto the life and death serious business of webcomicing.
Now, some of those among you who both read my comic and haven't forgone their internet ration for the day by smearing poop on the walls will have noticed that I haven't updated last week - which in itself is a somewhat grammatically incorrect statement, but fuck it let's roll!
There are many reasons for this, chief among them being that drawing a full A3 page of drawings, scanning them, editing them, inking them, colouring them, and all that shit takes waaaaaaaaaay longer than I remembered it taking - and unfortunately my piece of shit cock-sucking assraping motherfucking lame job tires the living arse off of me; so at this point asking me to do anything other than veg out in front of the TV is like asking me to run the London Marathon. In full army combat kit. In June. And every three feet I get pushed back four.
Literally. Even typing this right now is an endurance effort. Hell, showering is an endurance effort now I've been told not to take a chair in there.
So that's what I'm going to try instead, normal old style black and white strips - just fewer of them. It sucks, but then life sucks.
I miss being unemployed. At least I had a life then.

Oopdate
So just an update on stuff.
As you know (or may not) I'm currently moving the comic from it's current Comic Genesis location to a new home at Comic Fury. There are many reasons for this, chief amongst which being the increased options available at Comic Fury in regards to domain names and HTML and the like.
The current Comic Gen site is not going anywhere, nor will it change - I'll use it more as a mirror site after getting the CF one properly set up, so for the time being at least use the CG site as the main one.

I've sketched out mostly all of them so far (still have an extra slot
Website Help Wanted
This is hard for me to write down as I don't really know what it is that I'm asking for (or at least the terminology around it) so I'll just explain what I want...
My comic's website is fucking horrible looking. Like, a child designed it in dreamweaver kind of terrible. I know, I did it. But everything works, and nothing's broken. It's a very easy website to edit, to update, and alter.
BUT it looks like shit, as I think you'll agree. http://woodsforthetrees.comicgenesis.com/
So basically what I need is 2 things - ONE; make it look not shit, or at least less shit and TWO I want to move away from the .comicgenesis adress to the .com adress,
Post-Story Analysis
So it's the end of another glorious storyline and time again for my somewhat self-indulgent analysis of it.
As per usual with me, the ending shown was not the original ending written when I started the story - this is a very common thing with me, in that I do edit the scripts while I produce them. Indeed, the last three strips were rewritten pretty much a day before I started them. In the original ending, instead of the strip focussing on Jess and Reuben after Pytor leaves the story was originally going to cut to Isabel over-reacting to being shot in the tail and believing she was dying a "hero's death" until Reuben arrives and mocks her fo
'Baby Don't You Sign That Paper Tonight,' She Said
Developments have developed, leading to me deciding that what I'm about to say is a good idea (Jaysis I hope it is) - I'm going to (In the coming weeks) open limited slots for commissions....maybe like 5-10 or something...I'm new to this so I don't really know how it works.
Also, dunno how to accept payment from people, or even how much to charge for what. So the following would be my price list based on what I've seen others doing...then deducting some money from it because those artists are talented:
Inked character with no background - £2.50
Colour character (includes shading and gradient background if wanted) - £5.00 (additional charac

any comics will be good. Also glad to hear you're still making it, despite the lack of time with job and exhaustion.
Also, not allowing a chair in the shower? buy a shower chair! or bench, or whatever is cheapest.
