A new comic story and a competition!

Hello Blog Bells!

How are you doing today? Just thought I'd write an update on how I'm going. 

Over the last few months I have been working on a few projects, one of which seems to be taking up most of my time but is completely worth it. This project is a comic I'm working on for a comic for the Medibang website (https://medibang.com/contest/mcpo/). It took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do but at last I have figured it out and am already 5/30 pages into the story. I won't spoil the story too much for all of you, eventually I plan on putting it up online on both Medibang and Tapastic for you all to see. However I will tell you the story is based off of the new roleplay I've been doing with my friends. I will share below a few screenshot previews of the comic so far though, so you can get a feel and get excited about reading it when it is done. Of course when it does come out it will only be the first episode/chapter of the story, I plan on making this a continuous story and I'm quite excited about this. Because this is the first time in my life that I've chosen a story to draw and decided to stick with it, and have made the most progress on. I will admit that the story isn't entirely my own, I am using a world that was created by the GM and two characters that belong to the other two players. But I have asked everyone if it was alright for me to make this comic and they happily agreed and were very supportive in me doing this. I appreciate their support and could not have made this much progress without their cooperation! ^_^ To combat the fact the story isn't completely my own, I may decide to add a few things of my own to the story to adapt the story from RP (roleplay) mode to comic mode.

Anyway other than that I'm still going strong with my other projects, which some I cannot mention here for secret reasons, but who knows maybe when it's finally finished I will display it somewhere for you all to see.

Let me see what else, it has been an absolutely scorching hot Australian Summer, my kitty Midnight is the most adorable kitty in the world, and I'm going to be going back to Uni soon. So I'll be making the most out of my free time I have left. I still don't have a job but I haven't given up. I believe somewhere out there is the job for me, be it retail, hospitality, freelance graphic design, animation, illustration, etc. I WILL FIND WHERE I BELONG IN THE JOB WORLD SOMEDAY, SOMEHOW!

So bye for now, lots of love to you all you Bells out there!

"Let me tell you why you are here. You have come because you know something. What you know you can't explain but you feel it. You've felt it your whole life, felt that something is wrong with the world. You don't know what, but it's there like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that brought you to me."

"Do you know what I'm talking about?"

Sofi

"The Sketrix?"

Man of Wise

"Do you want to know what it is?"

Sofi swallows hard and nods.

Man of Wise

"The Sketrix is everywhere, it's all

around us, here even in this room.

You can see it out your window or

on your television. You feel it

when you go to work, or go to

church or pay your taxes. It is

the world that has been pulled

over your eyes to blind you from

the truth."

Sofi

What truth?

Man of Wise

"That you are a slave, Sofi. Like

everyone else, you were born into

bondage, kept inside a prison that

you cannot smell, taste, or touch.

A prison for your mind."

The LEATHER CREAKS as he leans back.

Man of Wise

"Unfortunately, no one can be told

what the Sketrix is. You have to

see it for yourself.

The Man of Wise points to two tables, which

seem to appear suddenly out of no where. 

On the right is a Pillow.

On the left, a pencil."

Man of Wise

"This is your last chance. After

this, there is no going back. You

take the pillow and the story

ends. You wake in your bed and

you believe whatever you want to

believe."

"You take the pencil and you stay

in Wonderland and I show you how

deep the rabbit-hole goes."

Sofi looks at both items, both are enticing, the moisture

growing in her palms.

Man of Wise

"Remember that all I am offering is

the truth. Nothing more."

Hey Guys!

Today is Tuesday, 7th of June, and tonight i am taking a break before having to get into heavy work tomorrow. TAFE has given me assignments up to my neck this term (4 assignments) and they are all due over the next 3 weeks. T_T So you can only imagine how tired i am of doing all these assignments... BUT! do become a designer/ illustrator/ manga artist, this course must be done and passed. So i am going to give it my all and try to finish as much as i can (hopefully finish everything) by the due dates!

Wish me luck guys! I'll need it....

Anyway, besides assignments what else have i been up to...

• Me, my friends, Keish and Erica finished and presented our colour theory presentation on PURPLE! 

• SUPANOVA and SMASH!; 2 of Australia's BEST conventions that i have been to, are coming up in 2 weeks and 6 weeks from today. Me and my friends are soooo excited we are jumping for joy!
• Found out how much i really want to play Left 4 Dead 2, as well as Left 4 Dead just by watching this guy Kilplix (Austin) and his friends playing it on gameplay videos. I seriously suggest you check him out on youtube if you haven't already! ^_^

Chargers really seem to love Kilplix (Austin)

OK! Well that's all i have to report so far,  just thought i might post on my blog just so you followers didn't think i had abandoned my blog, because i haven't. Like i said earlier i've just been really busy...

See you later and good fortune to you all!
