When possible. I can’t apologize enough. This is ridiculous how long it’s been since I’ve posted a new page, I’m well aware. I do intend to make it and I’ve been inching through this single page for months. For one, I’m in the middle of getting things in order to move out of my parents’ house. I’m sure many of you can relate with how difficult that can be, when you’re trying to get it done properly at least. At the moment I’m also busy helping Operation Head Pigeons with the upcoming InvaderCON II: Doomcon by making loads of art and sizing of old art. And I had a little medical issue that shot me to the ER and kept me bedridden for a good week, so yes, I’ve been gone, but I’ve been doing things. I’m not making excuses, I admittedly could have squeezed in time to do it but I often succumbed to my willingness to take a break. As my account is public, you can add me on Facebook for news on all of my informal shenanigans.
Adler’s Watch creator AnnaMaria Bryant (moi) got an interview with Eric Ratcliffe on the Why I Love Comics podcast. Check it out! :D
This is the blog where I’ll be posting the art sent in for Contest #2. Click here for details to enter. All art is posted in the Art Box as well. Everyone can only submit one image per contest, but you may change out which image you’d like to enter- so long as you do before the deadline!
Back in October, I took a trip to Austin with my friend Cameron Smith for a secret scouting mission. While I was there I got a few cool photos to reference in Adler’s Watch issue #3. It was very lucky that we found this spot too, because this issue would not be near as interesting nor mysterious had I not found this location.
Originally, it was all to take place underneath Congress bridge which is a hotspot for bat-watching or whatever you’d like to call it. This new spot I found, is sort of tucked away within downtown. We actually found it just down the street from a bar on 6th street. There were quite a few hobos there. Honestly, I’d want to live there if I were a hobo. Close to a gas station too, in case someone throws money at you.
It was very beautiful. It felt sort of like stepping outside of normal Texas urban territory into some other culture altogether. And it turns out there were bats nesting under those bridges as well. We weren’t there at night, but I imagine it would be very spooky and mystical around that time.
I’m completely aware I don’t draw the backgrounds entirely accurately. It’s usually my lack of attention to detail, or just changing things around to fit what I want in the story. But you can certainly tell where the area was meant to be. I hope to have enough room in this issue to use this entire area, but even if I don’t, there may be a chance I’ll come back to it later :D
