ULTRAIST STUDIOS

Next webcomic installment is here:

Spy Guy is going to get outta this office sooner or later… hang in there. I originally had this whole segment lasting for about 3 regulation pages, then I decided to decompress it, and now it’s running at about 9 regulation pages. But I like where it’s going, so on we go…

It’s tough getting the story narrative going in these short installments.

New Comic Day!

Warren Ellis asked for a picture, so I gave him one:

If you look closely, you can see page 6 of HARRY, and page 13 of SPUD.

ALSO:
Another Installment of Work Doodles…

These were done between playblasts with a dry erase marker in my animation dailies notebook. Trying to get better + faster at drawing…

First Blog Journal Post of 2007.

The following sketch was done for the latest buyer of the Possum Press / Ultraist Studios Promopack.

Buy a comic, get a sketch.  Just like at the convention!

Merry Christmas.
Here is another panel.

Due to the lackluster response of the last two half-sized quickies, I’ve gone back to doing full sized comic panels at a reduced speed resulting in nicer artwork and less panels.

This one was drawn at the same reduced scale as pt.13.

Some words about this strip:
It was drawn at half the size of the other strips in an attempt to fit a whole page on a single piece of paper. It was also done fast and sloppy.

“you mean those other strips aren’t sloppy?”

Well, yeah they are sloppy. I mean, they were drawn on a train. Whaddaya want?! But this one is especially sloppy. See, I wanted to see how fast I could go. It was drawn in record time, and this is what came out. I also busted out a brush-pen test out, hence those extre thick lines. I’ll probably be doing that sparingly in the future.

But whatever. It tells the story.

I don’t know how these are reading to the people checking in on a daily basis. My hunch is that they don’t read all that well as individual strips, however since the intent was to force my hand at drawing faster, and to let the story develop as a stream-of-consciousness experiment, I consider it a success (so far). Bah… enough banter… enjoy the comic.

Okay… enough of the introspective ramblings.
On with the comic!

Oh yeah. I also posted the comics over at The Drawing Board.
