There are some huge comic updates since I haven’t been sharing regularly, so this is the simplest way to communicate.
There are Social Media Issues!
I’ve discovered sharing on social media has eventually boiled down to a copyright ownership issue. This is my formal announcement that I will be only sharing my work from this page and from DeviantArt. I don’t accept the fact that these big tech companies insist that everything that belongs to them shared on their sites.
How long have you been drawing, Watoons?
It’s been almost 3 decades since I began my venture and began having a love and passion for nearly everything comics and cartoons. I cannot imagine what life would be like if I gave that up now! About 10 years ago, I had a catalyst (and a massive amount of boredom) that pushed me to want to improve my work and to better learn how to tell the stories I wanted to tell. In the coming months I will regularly show my growth over the last 10 years and how much has occurred throughout. It’s still one of the best things to have happened to me back in 2012.
Lifesong
Lifesong has almost reached its midway point. I did once believe that I would be nearly finished with this comic, but I’m proud to be where I am with this today. Chapter 7 is underway and it’s possible that it will premier in the fall. Secondly, I have begun a Patreon project that will eventually extend into the rest of this book. I’ve officially decided to color this work. Yay! It’s a lot of effort for this, but the end result is amazing.
The original is on the right, and the updated art is on the left. I will also be editing older chapters to more closely match the styles of the more current parts of this work. The original looks pretty good, but with a little more effort, I improved this work. I plan to take a little more time to make things better.
Penguin Capers
There are still plans to resume this comic once I have a little more free time. It’s a challenge doing all the things I want to do with all the things I need to do now. Penguins are still my favorite animal (tee-hee!) and what better than to draw a comic about super penguins! I’m currently reformatting this for a future print form, again it’s going to take time to do this.
Canine Kid
It’s the same as Penguin Capers. I love dogs and loony super dogs are a natural consequence of this passion. There will be some small reformatting when this series returns, but not as significant as its sister comic Penguin Capers.
That’s all for this month! Stay tuned for next month’s update.
