Think of it this way. Rebuilding a website’s backend and doing a redesign on a template is nothing but brain melting goodness, especially when a problem arises and there’s no goddamn way to find the problem without erasing everything you just did and starting from a fresh starting point.

FUCK.

Here’s an advance screening of a commission:

First I’m gonna work on the roughs and pencils for Sweet Will’s Spider-Man. The colors for this one come next.

Here’s a little peek at a piece I’m working on for a commission.

It’s a Gambit and Rogue piece for a girl who loves Gambit, but hates Rogue. This is a bit of the roughs. After this piece’s final inks are done, I’ll be getting to work on Sweet Will’s Spider-Man.

Not much to talk about, I’m trying to get into the habit of posting at least one sketch a day. This is kinda cheating because this is about three months old, but this is the sketch that convinced a lot of people at HeroesCon to pay for sketches like it, so I figured it’d be worth it to show off.

I’ve been dabbling in the site’s backend between classes and working on art outside of school and work. Things are going tremendously well. I’ve even got two commissions that I’m working on that will see the light of day soon enough.

I meant to post immediately after the con or yesterday, but the instant I came home, I was thrust straight back into my hectic routine.

Here’s the short version of my HeroesCon 2009 experience:

• The con itself was FUCKING AMAZING
• I made about $200 without having anything official for sale. This was just me selling con sketches.
• I’m totally gonna have a table there next year.
• The guys I went with had an unusual fascination with Granny Goodness over the weekend for some reason
• The advice I got from some of the professionals there was fantastic and I totally plan on taking full advantage of that

But now, it’s on to business!

The site is going to get revamped on the backend. I’m going to lose the CUSP webcomic updating software in favor of Comicpress, and lose Movable Type altogether in favor of WordPress. It’s just an easier utility to maintain and work on.

This may take about a week, but I am working on some other things at the same time.

In the meantime, here’s a sketch I did at the con:
