Sorry for the long and well dull lack of any activity but I have been busy these last few months. I was going through a rough time trying to write and create my comic. It has gone through so may revisions that I just scrapped the damn thing , and took a break to just work and try to clear my mind. After months of nothing, my Mom and sister told me of a trip top Germany to visit my older adopted sister and her family. See they are in the military and I have not seen them in over a six year span since they were stationed there. So I asked if I could join the trip and I spent Two wonderful and stunning weeks seeing not just Germany,and then Paris. I literally walked all over Pairs (we could not find our hop on and hop off tour bus) I was sore as heck after that, we walked over 12.5 miles in just one day and I am not in great shape. But it was amazing. The rats were scary but that was just because I am not used to seeing mice and rats out in the open. The food was incredible, I even saw the whole city at night. Then seeing the german countryside was breathtaking. It looks just like the mountains and farms like here in the US. I went to a wine festivel, ate things I thought I would not like and even learned a few words. I loved the place and was sad we had to come home. I found that despite what many people said that people in France and Germany would be rude, I felt as if I was in the nicest place in the world. Granted I realized that I should have learned some German, but i digress. 

Rested and inspired  I have found new ideas and stories to work on. Stay tuned.

ANd I will post some of the pictures I took over there.

Hey guys!!! 

Guess who finally got a new Mac? Sadly I can't load all my work onto it, as all my work is on my nearly eight year old mac and this new mac is state of the art for now anyway. So  this new mac will be used for my writing and my old mac will be used for my art. I have not been able to work on any comics due to my new job, which I am now at the eight month mark, yay! However , I am going on a two week trip in November and will finally have time to work. So  be prepared to see a brand new comic. 

Now as for the new comic, it will be a slow process, as I have decided to  create it the old fashion way.  With pen, pencil, and colored pencil. I like the look I have with them and would like to see  how it goes. Plus, it is way more relaxing. Now once the comic comes out please please read and leave a comment. This will help me improve on my story telling and art work, so please leave a CONSTRUCTIVE comment and I will be sure to send you a llama as a thank you.

Expect the first page on OCT 31st .

Later .

Hello MLP fans

3 min read
Hello everybody, I am back sooner than I had expected, turns out my job training and such canceled and I am out of work before it even began. Depressed I turned on the Tv and found to both my horror and joy that I became a MLP fan. My horror ,  due to the fact that at my age this show should not be so captivating to me, and my great joy at finding a cartoon that ACTUALLY has subjects that  mean something. I am a huge fan of Fluttercord ship. Discord is my fav. 


The point of my little rant here however is this. As I am busy job hunting and such, I have no time to make the backgrounds for the comic. It sucks. But in a fit of sugar induced brillance I had the idea: Why not have the readers make the backgrounds. I love see how other interpret the world and seeing how the make the backgrounds Inspires me to continue doing the comic. However this is totally up to you guys. If you don't like this idea simply send me a note and say so.  If you do like the Idea, send me a note and a like to the backgrounds you have made. There will be a folder in My favorites labeled MLP Background entries. Within that folder will be other folders with the background themes, such as  The Castle or   Artie's Island. This will give you the option of what you want to create. Not all the Background will be used but every one who sends one to me will make a cameo in the comic as a MLP pony or creature of your choice.

Don't get me wrong though. It kills me to even think of not doing the backgrounds myself, but my hands have been hurting  to the point I get ill, and I have many other things that need to be done that I have only made time to do the character art. Also, please tell me what you think of the story, and the art style so far. Also feel free to call me out on any spelling errors that you see, any help makes the difference.

Seriously though please tell me what you think of the background Idea. Send me a note if you like.

I you do choose to do this , try to keep the backgrounds as close to shows style as you can without  losing your own unique style twists. 

Also I do need help naming and designing Arties mother and father, as well as the rest of her tribe. 

And If your wondering  Fido IS a Musk deer, a very old type of deer that still have tusks, and are the size of a small dog. 

Please tell me what you guys think so I can make my decision.

Hey Guys ! I am Finally back from my trip. Had a blast at the con. I got the best  stuff and even a picture in the TARDIS!!!!! I even got the only Appa plush they had at the con. Now after a much needed rest at the con  I am  now working on the comic.  On the downside my room is currently under work with the fact my mom wants to rearrange and paint it. So  the comic will be hand drawn until  possibly next summer. My  issue with this is that the comic will be in colored pencil and I am worried about how it will look. So my idea for that is this: I want YOU to tell me which  look is best. I will post two samples, one from  the computer and the other hand drawn. After January 2nd I will tally the comments and then decide. I really value my watchers views and  would love to hear what you would like. In the mean time I will TRy to post my con pics but the SD card is being a brat.

Also the Photos labeled Stock are the works of my wonderful and talented little sister and my Genius and lovely mother. I post them here so that their work can be seen. I will ask them if they will CONSIDER selling prints but that is up to them and them alone. 

Also, I don't want to sound like a whiny brat but If you favorite any of my work or theirs PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, leave a comment telling why you like it. Doing this helps me improve my work . However  I do ask you  say things constructive, and be nice. Flames and trolls will not be tolerated. Show me the same respect you would show your parents and I will do the same to you.

Also please keep the victims of the Smokey Mountain Fires in your prayers to which ever higher power you believe in. What they need now is  for you to be with them is spirit to recover form the worst wildfire the State of TN has seeing in over 100 years. Those mountains are a big part of the culture and mean the world to the people of the Smokey Mountains.  And sadly the forest that brings so many people to the  Mountain each year will take decades to fully recover. 

 Normally I would not ask this, but this incident hit close to home as my family comes from this place and so did many of my kinfolk from many generations ago. So please keep  the missing and the lost in your prayers tonight. 

Thanks.

Due to lack of time and ideas the comic has gone under some drastic changes, so please be kind and wait. So while I and my co-creator work things out, please enjoy the amazing photography  works of my talented Mother and little sister. They will be in a special folder  in my gallery.


The comic  is going to be a LONG one so please do not rush us to post. My co-creator is the script and story writer, and will be  doing the hardest part of the project.  Therefore I will post the pages when both our jobs are done.  

Also I will not be here for a week or two, as I am going on a trip. I will  post my trip pictures when I come back. My friend, who is also co creator of the new comic, is who i will be seeing, , as we live in two different states, we only get to see each other in person once a year. I'll be back soon so enjoy.
