Well i just entered a Comic book concept in the Comic Book Challenge being produced by Platinum Studios. Now for me to enter this contest took some retooling of my internal map of reality. See if my concept would win that would mean that Platinum would own the comic book rights to this concept.
Now my map of reality when coming to comic book creations has been drawn by the influence the self-publishing success story of Dave Sim. Creating a comic book and to give it away to a company was a major hurdle I had to overcome to enter this contest. Thats why i just created a whole new concept for it, instead of retooling the several concepts laying around in the recluse of my mind.
But if somehow I win this thing, I get to produce this comic book for them and I will get my name out there in the comic book universe. The hope is it creates a space and place for me to enter in with my own self publishing projects.
Time will tell.
Oh and by the way, the title of my concept is, Sigil Stone.
Being a creative person who is constantly struggling with myself on being steadily productive, I am finding myself trying to get warmed up for producing TV God. It seems my ambitions for TV God seems a bit too heavy to jump into right now so I completed a one pager of an old comic character of mine called forkface, and I am currently working on another. Check out the new page here.
The other project I am working on is coloring my recently finished 24 page flow of things. I've even digitally painted up a color cover and I am planning on printing this with Ka-Blam and put up for sale on my web site. Hopefully having a tangible object that I created in my hands will lead to more comic books created by me. After that I plan on gathering up some forkface pages and print a collection comic book of those.
Oh yeah World of Warcraft is on hiatus as it's become time sink drawing me away from my creative pursuits among other things. Will the world of Azeroth survive without my dwarven priest? Yeah I think so.
We interrupt this creative pursuit to level my priest, Curse these addictions. I did complete my comic Flow of things at least before the new Warcrack hit the streets.
