As You're Up

Suckers for Love

Up and running on energy legs

Ahoy!

So in case you haven't noticed, the comic's being updated again - and we have a lovely new layout thanks to Whistleonwind, which I'm happy with!

I was hoping to get to soup it up myself, but that would take way too long at the moment, and from a time-management perspective would just be silly!

Anyhow, the final shows are up (if you're in the Manchester area this week be sure to check it out at the Chatham building near the Grosvenor park!), and I'm out of college!
Which means I'm also looking for work!

If anyone's interested in employing or hiring a graphic designer/illustrator, I might just be your guy. My portfolio is up on my website if you want to have a look at the kind of work I've been doing so far.

There will hopefully be an update or two this week, if I can get my hands on the latest copy of The Drum, to find the press ad I illustrated which was printed recently.

Sorry

No comic this week, I have so many planned but final projects are taking up all my time and energy - and with my scanner broken I can't even post something quick done in my break (although considering my only breaks generally take place on rickety buses or are based around sleeping, I'm not sure how well that'd come out anyway)

Will resume updating once I've stopped crying tears of blood and sweat!

Back, comic soon, and open for commissions!

Well I'm back from Texas! And it's way too damn cold in Manchester.

Just wanted to let you good folks know that there's another comic on the way, scripted and roughed, though I can't say when exactly it'll get finished since I've gotta prioritise and concentrate on the more important stuff in my workload!

But figured I'd also mention this now, if you want to commission me for anything just send me a PM or email me (address is on the Contact page) and we can talk about it!
You know you want somma my joocy fresh art-stylin's, totally to the X-traMaxxx*

That's all for now, so I'll wrap up by saying goodbye, and also Happy Birthday.

Update on its way!

Just a heads up, the comic's getting done and should be up later today; would have been done by now if it wasn't for one bastard of a cold XP

Slight Delay

Just a heads up for anyone who's looking, the comic's gonna be a little late this week; if it isn't up later tonight, it'll be up tomorrow!

Peace out -
Chris out also!

This way coming...

College is over for a couple months and the scripts for the next few comics have been found - will hopefully be updating frequently while I'm off (and if the updates become infrequent, it'll be the good kind of infrequent, where there are MORE comics than usual!) I've let the schedule slip somewhat* and I aim to make up to you gentle folk for that while I can.

As much as I wanna keep the comic going steadily, really don't want to risk screwing myself over at college so it has to taste backburner for a while. (And seriously, it stops being as much fun as it should be when there's that nagging guilt present that you COULD be doing work instead. Whoever invented nagging guilt, I challenge you to a duel *slaps the computer screen with a leather glove* ...okay, is it weird that I actually did that? They were just lying there on my desk, begging to slap something.)

Anyhow, I'll say goodbye for now, even though I doubt anybody reads the newsposts!
Take care all, and have a good Sund'eve**

-Chris

Randomization!

Just added TheDarkJay's Random Comic script, seems to work pretty freakin' well! So thanks to TheDarkJay!

Will hopefully be updating the page design soon, either along with the next comic or shortly after!
Pretty busy at the moment though, gonna get back to being vaguely productive! (Along with watching some Flight of the Conchords!)

Uhn. Uhn. Where is it?

Goddamn college induction weeks! I've finally started back, though the proper schedule doesn't kick in until Monday.

Rest assured the Alton Towers arc will be completed, along with a couple other comics that definately need doing! On Tuesday however, there's going to be a slight intervention between Alton part 1 and 2! That'll get drawn and put up on time, provided I can find my pencil which has mysteriously disappeared.

I really can't find it anywhere. I was using it last night, where did it get to!? Seriously annoying, but it'll turn up... and if not, I'll just do it all on computer!

So check back Tuesday, and there'll be a shiny new comic up! Rejoice!!
