Crossposting from tumblr because lazy and also I want opinions from you guys as to my proposed project, announced further down in the post.
Finally finished drawing the second chapter of Four Tales, and none too soon because the current chapter has about 3 weeks before it's wrapped up. Hopefully that's enough time to thumbnail and draw the 11 page intermission (hint: it's probably not but I might try anyways just for shits and giggles). I should definitely have enough time left in the semester to at least finish that much.
I'm also thinking that the end of this semester might mean the end of regular updates of WIP. I'm not necessarily getting tired of it, but I dislike the idea of continuing to pump out autobiographical comics to the point of searching my memory banks. I think I will still put them up when I feel particularly inspired but I'd rather focus on other things. And speaking of other things...
In place of WIP, I think I will be starting another long-form comic project. It's a story I've had in the back of my mind since high school and have tooled around with a bit on and off since then, and when I pitched it to my friends they seemed to like it. It's a pretty straightforward comedy story with a bit of action. The art style is a little like Works in Progress, but that's really only a vague barometer.
My current inclination is to just write the whole damned thing (or at least what I estimate to be a good arc of the story) in a few sessions and get started at the beginning of the summer. It's probably not going to be something done with as much forethought as Four Tales, but hey... it'll be funnier! (Then again, that's not hard. I hope.)
Anyways, I just began plotting this whole scheme as of last night, but I really think it's time for a change in my projects. As much as I've enjoyed doing WIP, I'd rather devote my energies into writing a humor comic that is actually telling a story. So the timeline will probably be shifted backwards since this has been a fairly spur-of-the-moment decision, but I find it likely that I'll make a switch sometime in the summer.
Till later.
