These pictures may remind you of something: Seaspear. I, uh....cleverly....forgot to give you an update in my last post. My little book was exploding with progress for most of March - so much so that I considered taking the month off of writing too, because I was neglecting other things. But I'm almost to 60,000 words with it and right now, I have....writer's block. Bah.
I'm soo sorry these are sideways. I tried everything I could think of! The top one is John Paul Jones, aboard his Bonne Homme Richard - I've always loved the fellow. Especially in that old tv show - Liberty's Kids! Has anyone watched that? The bottom one is Admiral Brueyes, who was killed...hm. Don't remember. Killed in a battle with Nelson, I believe.

A conversation my dad and I had over a catalog gave me the idea for this comic. I'll give it to you frame by frame so its easier to read. (As I uploaded all these, I realized some definite mistakes, like the lack of a question mark in the last frame. Also, Ash had a little lipstick malfunction in this first one, due to a wayward pen.)

Here's a four-frame comic I just did yesterday for a co-op art class.

Hope you enjoyed these!
P.S. Isn't the weather beautiful? I woke up to birds singing. :)

I haven't heard 'Liberty Kids' in years! Ever since it stopped! Loved that show so much!!
Great drawings!!! I always wished I could draw, but could never do anything like that!!
I remember watching Liberty Kids when I was younger. I especially liked their theme song. :)
The comics were great! Good job! ;)
Yes, the weather has been absolutely beautiful around here! :D

Ha, in the manner of everyone else, I am going to confess my ardent love of Liberty's Kids and grief that it's gone...that show was so very nice. *sigh*
The portraits are great!! I like John Paul Jones is my favorite. I love how you can make people's faces look realistic. (Even a guy's! Wow!:D) I am reading a pirate novel right now and thinking about you and Seaspear often...so glad to hear it's going well!
Haha, I like the idea of an urban decay-themed living room! Very inspirational. ;)
Very choppy comment. Miss you!

PS-Oh, and the ACT was gnarly. SO happy it's over, but reconciled to taking it again if I need to. :)
