NNNNEW VOTEREWARD!

This time... It has what the other 400 readers of this comic --who happen to be all imaginary, by the way-- wanted! More males, and more scalyness! So, they get some Fechi Warrior goodness!

Then again, maybe they wanted to see Slayer. Oh well.

So, what to talk about... Aside of the fact that I've been in a sort of an art block --mainly caused by the fact I haven't been able to focus on drawing, because of games and gamingness-- there's nothing much to report.

I have a few things planned here and there, but, I must be able to conquer this lazyness before I can do them. Thank God for the existance of buffers, and my almost OCD-ish tendency to keep 'em sturdy, or else, we'd have some serious gaps in updates right about now.

But, in the meantime, you'll get to enjoy, very soon, a very short, but very action packed scenes soon. Juuust you wait.

Actually, yes, you'll wait, because there will be a small training montage and stuff like that first. :D

Talking about Stuff #1

Wow, this took a bit of time to do. Chalk it to me being unable to sleep or work on the redoing of chapter 2 until I could sleep. :D

So, this time, we will talk about... The Card Game! Oh man. I have neglected that one for a long time...

But first, a bit of history. Back in the days when the art of the comic was worse than it is now --yep, it's possible!-- I was both obsessed with Card Games, and obsessed with having people have a sort of different experiences about the comic. And so, the idea of the card game was born.

Sdragon, being both the genius of tactics that he is, and being the only guy who happens to have awesome ideas all the time, helped me flesh out the rules of the card game. I just added pictures that, back then, I thought qualified as good enough to put on the cards. And, since the thing had pretty pics about the characters, I decided to use 'em in the cast section of the site.

So, the short-lived experiment on card gaming begun... and ended. Mainly, because we were doing this stuff in the MWS forums --yeps, we do have a forum!-- and, I'm well known in the world at large for having trouble keeping my focus on foruming --and keeping focus on many things at a time, too-- And, the thing certainly required me to be constantly there, modding and stuff, while also drawing the comic pages. I'm bad at multitasking!!:p

I do want to re-do the card game project... in terms of art, of course. But, every time I think about it, a different project appears... like, redoing the second chapter of the comic.

But, believe me, I'll someday, SOMEHOW finish that project. Even if it takes all my focus powers to do so.

SQUIRREL!

EDIT: See, it's like I got a mild case of ADD. So, what should we talk about next? Do tell me!

New Votereward!

Man, seems I only use this blog to tell you about new voterewards, huh? But, I guess it can't be helped. Anyways, this votereward is simple, yet, there's something I like a lot about it; maybe it's the colouring, what do you think?

Aside of my insomnia episodes, and a few events that have sapped my inspiration a little bit, everything is sort of OK. I'll be working soon on redoing the second chapter of the comic: "The Fechi Valley"!

This one sure requires some major overhauls, not only because of the "MintWhelp Rant" part (done back in the days my scanner was useless because of me changing operating systems), but also, because of the Fechies themselves.

You see, we ended up having a few Fechi characters that are now important to the plot, and I was told it would be better if we reference them a bit in this "first appereance of the Fechies" chapter; so, some rewriting will be done to that effect. And, of course, I'll try to have jokes that actually try to make sense, and just slightly better artwork than in the original pages.

On sort of unrelated news, I also found a game-maker engine that I may use in the event I make a MWS2 game. Don't hold your breath on that one, though, as I still have to learn how to use it properly, scribble a story, maybe make custom sprites, etcetera, etcetera; and, as people that know me can tell you, I have problems with even the most simple technical stuff, so making a game (even with a game-making engine) might be a bit beyond my ken.

One final note: I guess we could try having you people that comment suggest a topic I could talk about in this blog. Since it's only four people now, I guess we can somehow manage for one or two topics :D. How about it?
