So, Redeye crashed again with no warning whatsoever, will not boot up and is generally being difficult.

Cue a week with no computer.

Cue me going batshit using the manho's computer, banging my head against the wall, and finally deciding to buy myself a sweet new laptop - which I had previously been considering but couldn't justify.

...cue photoshop refusing to install properly.

However, I'm off to Keon's to buffer some comics and do stuffs artwise, and when I get home I'm going to wrestle my scanner into submission.

Wish me good luck!

So I worked out a schedule whereby I update each of my comics on a regular basis - I think I mentioned this in my last post. We're starting out at every other week for Pimpette and Shenanigan (alternating), and once a month randomly for Pumbum. Not very ambitious, but, baby steps. It would help if I didn't have a fulltime job (ten hours per shift yey =/ ), but what can you do.

I'm considering starting to do some commissions - it'd be good practice for me to get into drawing regularly, as well as learning to draw some different things.
Wouldn't be too expensive; I don't plan on doing much more than quick one-character drawings, b&w/colour, maybe vague backgrounds.

Say $5 for any single character (B&W) with a simple background,
$10 for the same, but with colour.
Add $2 for each additional character stuck into the picture.

My portfolio and gallery could use some spicing up, and it would be fun. :3

Man I love conventions.
I never sell a lot of shit, but I always enjoy myself.

Went and found and - hilariously, sitting next to each other once again. Two birds with one stone much? XD Though Ryan's table was really Suzanne's table, but hey. Also ran into Zenny again. One of the best parts of conventions is running into random people all the time.
I should really socialize more - next year I'll try to get more sleep in advance (blargh jaw issues and work, keeping me up).

Did some little doodles and a couple of comics while sitting around; conventions always give me a renewed zest for drawing, and I've already got an update on Pimpette, plus one more for next week. Planned out a new update schedule with Keon, and this one isn't anywhere close to hard, I shouldn't have trouble sticking to it.

Anyway, I'll hop around posting the doodles I scribbled out while sitting around, plus the new Turkish print that I nearly sold out of.

Cheers, and can't wait until next year!

If you came home and found a devWatch from me and have no idea who I am... I'm the chick with the bag covered in buttons and the Dinosaur Comics tshirt (A wizard has turned you into a whale. Is this awesome <y/n> ?)!

I vanished around five but did squeeze in three hours of entertainment, so hurrah.
Posted the few pictures I actually took here:

Got to High Park about quarter to two, realized just how damn big the park is, and had no idea where anyone was going to be. Sooo I sat on a park bench with a comic right beside the map and decided to wait until I saw other lost-looking people.
Which I did shortly, and between the five of us we made it through the park to a clearing in front of the cafe where everyone was actually meeting.

Stood around awkwardly for a while remembering why I don't usually go to these things by myself, but everyone was so friendly I eventually found some hilarious people to cling to..


Made some cracks about being on a field trip while $spyed and $Heidi led us to the giant maple leaf for some pictures, and had fun sticking together as a group and just generally hanging out for the afternoon.

I'd do it again

Another convention come and gone. Sold out of Mr Grumples pins pretty quick - had to give a girl the last one from the display itself. Good times!

Saw some neat cosplayers, saw some creepy cosplayers, sold some stuff, got to see desfunk, and did a commission for a guy who'll be DJing at next year's AN.
Going to be scanning some of the scribbles I did while sitting at the table - and uploading a photo of what I drew for Mr DJ.

Also pumped for Fan Expo at the end of August. Going to choose a small handful of designs to make shirts of, we'll see how well those do. We'll have some new models, more comics/minicomics, lots of funky prints, and at least twice as many buttons as I've got now.
Excited!
