With these I am also trying to draw faster.  I mean I am always trying to do that but with these I skipped the sketching process (sort of) and just went for it right away.  I usually spend too much time on my sketches anyway and clean them up enough to look basically just like the final line drawings.  So I figured why not just do that to begin with and skip a step?

Anyway I think this will only be four pages total.  But we’ll see.

Man!  This is cutting it pretty close.  Don’t worry though, I’ve prepared some more stuff and now I think it’s time for a little intermission from David the Treasure Hunter!

Starting Thursday and going for a few updates after that, we’re going to take a look at the history of the Skull King.  It was an idea I had and actually drew out a while ago, but didn’t until now have a great opportunity to wedge it in.  But this is a good breaking point.  Cliffhanger, I know, but that’s the point!  This is also right where I left off when I stopped updating my old LiveJournal and starting posting things here.  So now everyone is caught up.  History of the Skull King on Thursday and a few updates after that, and then ALL NEW MATERIAL!  We’re doing this.  Totally.

As for this page.  I guess it’s not really that the big momma Sea Horse is angry, it’s just that a giant beast like that kicks up a lot of water without even realizing it.  Also, I’m not sure how I did with some of the frames.  I really put this page off because I didn’t like what I had sketched and I didn’t want to ink it, but now that it’s done I think I could have done a worse job.  The nice part, though, is that I’m done with it and I’m excited for the next pages that I get to draw.

Alright!  See you back here Thursday.  Thank you for reading!!

Woooaaahhh!

Fun fact: I was considering titling this post “Such Great Heights.”  You know?  Like that song that was popular five years ago?  Well, I decided not to.  But it’s kind of fitting, I think.

I also gotta tell you guys about Blip Festival in New York City.   I went with my brother Curt (check some of these links to his stuff) and had a great time.  It was exhausting and I am frankly glad to be done with it, but I had a blast the entire time and don’t regret a thing, even though I am sore all over and I think I’m getting sick.

Okay well that is all.  I feel like the accompanying blog posts to the comics are always kind of awkward.  I don’t know!  WhatEVER!

Hurrah!  But of course you can’t just plunder and get away with it freely, right?  Well, usually you can but not this time.  We’ll see what’s happened on Thursday!

Also, I just got back from Blip Festival 2009.  It’s an annual Chiptune music festival that takes place in New York City.  I’m writing this before I’ve left though, so I can’t really tell you a whole heck of a lot about it.  I’m sure I had a lot of fun, though!!  My first time going to NYC, too.  AND it’s almost Christmas!  Times are crazy, you guys.
