Talks about rejection and why you shouldn't let it get you down and why you should do the things you love in life...<br />

Also, will be starting something soon that will either be a.) the beginning of my career in the industry<br />
-or-<br />
b.) a slight waste of time.<br />
<br />

<br />
Recently (well not any more) got a puppy, a crazy little Pembroke Welsh Corgi. He's been far more work to take care of than anyone could have ever told me. But now that we've had him for...4 months things have settled down and we've got our routine and i've been able to finally get back to work...<br />
<br />
...speaking of which here's something that I did as a break from my comic (because I severely needed it) It's a Chocobo from any one of the various Final Fantasy games (more inspiration on this from FFXIV, than other games) and a Moogle Dragoon Knight...or Mog DK as I like to call him =P<br />

<br />
<br />
feels great to be able to work again, although as always the balance between play and work and work that seems like play is a delicate one...<br />
<br />
Hopefully this means i'll be able to work on more stuff and resume a steady posting stream to this thing.Jon Kye Augustynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13420712169937820036noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279290568012265715.post-3621821757938137332013-02-07T05:02:00.003-08:002013-02-07T05:03:03.266-08:00Update!

To celebrate this momentous event, I've undertaken a personal project to crank out a 6(ish) page comic...and to show how serious I am...here's a teaser of the first/cover page.<br />

So, as of right now I am currently without a way to digitally input creations onto my computer. Looking into alternatives...(replacement pen? upgrade to an Intuos?) Since I cannot finish anything I've been working on...i'll post some wip stuff instead.<br />
<br />
Also, I finally got around to changing my banner....a little embarrassing having my banner and the URL be different ^^;<br />

That is either disappointing or...a sign of the coming apocalypse. Well regardless, since I haven't posted any of my recent projects...I shall post them now.<br />
<br />
I've been keeping myself quite busy with these two projects whilst struggling in trying to come up with a coherent story to tie things in my head together.<br />
<br />
First up we have an action pose of what I hope to be a (main?) character Zoe, smacking the head of a hapless Zomboid with her trusty cricket bat. Attempted some new things with this piece, new shading technique, which in retrospect, was a complete waste of time. Also tried using multiple textures on the various bits of this as well.<br />
<br />

<br />
Next we have my most recently finished project, a piece of fan art of Yoda, the Jedi Master doing a little maintenance on his lightsaber. This was a something that went from a minor thing to a project of passion as it developed. I went a bit overboard with the details I think. Also, this was my first time trying to apply reflections to any surfaces (overall i'm happy with them...but they're definitely something I need to plan ahead for in the future).<br />

Attempted to go for something a little bit more stylized than what I've been cranking out lately. Overall, quite happy with it.<br />
<br />
As per usual, line work was all done in Flash, and the coloring and texturizing was done in Photoshop.<br />

<br />
Originally started as a sketch that I did in a friend's notebook...I'm happy with it, especially considering how quickly I was able to finish it.<br />

<br />
Anyway, nothing too exciting here, slowly working on some more stuff, attempting a character sheet for an imagined comic that i'd like to do somewhere down the line.<br />
<br />
also, here's a really awesome <a href="http://www.comicsalliance.com/2012/09/13/jonathan-hickman-and-the-mad-science-of-the-manhattan-projects/" target="_blank">interview</a> with Jonathan Hickman, the man behind the Manhattan Projects comics (very awesome, very worth reading)<br />

<br />
Instead I thought i'd update to show off some articles that I found interesting whilst perusing the open vastness of the internet.<br />
<br />
First up we have an article talking about Disney's new short film Paperman, which is supposed to debut before the upcoming videogame homage movie, Wreck It Ralph: <a href="http://www.bleedingcool.com/2012/08/23/bleeding-cools-exclusive-look-into-disneys-pioneering-new-film-paperman/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+BleedingCool+%28Bleeding+Cool+Comic+News+%26+Rumors%29" target="_blank">(CLicK Me!)</a><br /><br />Next up is a short but sweet interview with (one of my) favorite comic book artists Fiona Staples about her work on the excellent Saga series, also gives a peek at the cover for issue #8: <a href="http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=40756" target="_blank">(cLickY cliCKY)</a><br /><br />Now I know that this isn't necessarily a personal update, but I thought that I'd share some of the creative stuff that I've been reading around the internet. Promise that the next update will have some sort of art to go with itJon Kye Augustynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13420712169937820036noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279290568012265715.post-74885375716754004812012-08-27T05:59:00.003-07:002012-08-27T05:59:59.646-07:00Sorry, been a bit busy! Sorry for the lack of updates lately...been busy with school stuff, summer vacation, and finally the dreaded artist's block (thought I had overcome it, but alas...).<br />
<br />
So whilst I struggle to get over my drawing funk i'll post a bit of a project I started the other day.<br />
