NYC COMIC CON!



That time of the year has rolled around again and I will be attending this years comic con as a regualr person lol. I am planning to be there all day Sunday, so if you want to meet up, just shoot me an e-mail and hopefully we can hang out! This year, I planned to show some of my drawings to more people hoping to get a better reaction this year than last year.

Hopefully by next year, I will have my own table with serialization coming...so if I meet you there, I can show you a sneak peek of what I have drawn so far!

So hopefully I will see you there.

Younger kids are more talented than Me.


A self portrait one of my students drew of me....


a modified Charles by a student named FFFFFFFFRANKY!

So as you can see, my job is quite fun...at times lol. i have met two students today who are around the 8th grade with some scary drawing talent!

Anyways, I have decided to abandon working on the current chapter I am working on and continue with the chapter I was working on before since the deadline is pretty close and finishing this new chapter will take a long....very long..time. Due to complicated angles and sceneries I have in my mind, lol. But do not worry, all of these chapters, I plan to release in 2012!

And if you have not already, check out our podcast with the author of PARADIGM SHIFT, Dirk Tiede:

BEING PRODUCTIVE...SORT OF


TOTALLY AWESOME.


My bros playing SMASH




Me working while reading PARADIGM SHIFT and smoking hookah lol




On weekends, I usually spend a lot of my time with the bros...sometimes doing nothing lol. So with my busy schedule, I try to fit in drawing whenever I can. I also finally managed to get around to reading SCOTT PILGRIM (I know...I'm behind) and finished it and it is epically epic. I could never get into it originally due to the art, but once I got past it, it's pretty epic. Even my girlfriend got into it...even though she said she liked it more than SPOON...-__-;

So as some of you may know, we have a pretty cool guest for out next podcast:

So look forward to it!

Where am I?

Hello!

So I have moved out of my parents home and am living on my own...kind of. I am living in another college house with two other roommates, which all seems weird since I feel like I am moving back to college, rather than moving out to become a working person in society.

I took a job at a prviate school teaching fulltime, the pay is not amazing, but I can definitely suffice. Along side that, I have obtained another part time job as an after school tutor, so hooray for me!

As for SPOON, I am still working on chapter 1 on super awesome paper and am trying to draw as much as I can in one day, so I will keep you all updated with cool pics of my new room!

Preview of 2012





Start of the real chapter 1 and hopefully the one I will submit to MORNING....get hyped!

Thank god for delays

Hello!

So as some of you may have seen on my fanpage, the deadline for the morning contest has been moved to OCTOBER 31ST! w00t! Good thing since the chapter I am working on is still 20 pages away from completion...XD.

But I have decided to do a DIFFERENT oneshot for SPOON since I feel the chapter I am working on now is more suitable as a chapter 3 than a chapter 1. So it is back to the drawing board for me and hopefully I will have it finished by October 31st! Good thing I roughdrafted it out already :)

As for our PROMATEURS, we will be having our first live call in THIS THURSDAY AT 9PM. This is how it works:

1)friend me on skype at neostar8710
2)at 9pm, call me and I will add you to our chat.

It's that simple! So please call in to showcase your opinions about the world of webcomics today!

See you Thursday!

Future Plans (Tentative)

Hola everyone, it has been awhile!

So my life has been rather busy and I feel like I have not updated here in quite a bit! Last week, I started working at my summer school job at a church, so at least I am making some $$$.

As for my artistic side of life, me and Mr. Contreras have been continuing with our podcasts releasing episodes BI-weekly and if you missed out, you can listen to them here while doodling or some other sort of work:

http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/talkCast.jsp?masterId=99009&cmd=tc

and our twitter: http://twitter.com/#!/promateurs

In the future, we plan to expand by releasing a youtube account, but that is in the works for now. The next episode will be released THIS friday, so stay tuned.

***ALSO the next episode, we will be calls! The topic will be once again about the state of comics in the world and since most of you know where we stand, we would like to hear YOUR opinions! Time and date and the number to call will be provided as it gets closer! ***


NOW FOR SPOON.....

I am planning to COMPLETELY draw out 4 chapters of SPOON, which is basically the first volume and submit them to some companies hoping for some sort of feedback. I definitely have to finish chapter 1 by the end of this month to submit it to the MORNING contest which I most likely won't win since it seems they only seem to accept more seinen oriented mangas, but whatever! haha.

I am currently 35 pages in with chapter 1, which is about 70% complete, yikes!

Now as for reserialization, I really want to show my new stuff, but as all of you know, I have a bad habit of losing steam and quitting, so that is my reason for holding off. After submitting my stuff, if I do not hear back, I might just say "screw it" and start reserialization and just have SPOON as a webcomic like BLADE OF THE FREAK and FLIPSIDE.

So IF I do reserialize, do not expect anything until September or even January of 2012 since on top of drawing, I need to focus on finding a real job, lol. So wish me luck and hopefully I will talk to some of you on our next episode of PROMATEURS!
