News

Here's a brief summary of site updates, starting at the most recent.

Nov. 11th 2009: It is raining. Do you: A) Stay home and sulk, B) Build an ark, or C) Build a weather control machine?

... Okay, guys, I know I haven't updated in a while. Sorry. But here's an announcement: If I don't miraculously acquire around $130 by December 1st, this site will vanish. Kaput. Nada. I only have the site and domain paid up to that point. SO, if you want to keep watching my works, register at my forum (that's not going anywhere), or follow me on Twitter or Facebook, or watch me on DeviantArt or SheezyArt.

I'll try to keep the website, but don't be surprised if it vanishes.

July 29th 2009: My shorts are too slippery for your bed. They keep falling off.

My journey is over for now. It was shorter than I'd hoped. This hiatus should end soon. Just to prove I'm still alive, here, have some art of Ladrona Mallow from My Dear Supervillain!

July 8th 2009:Adventure: JUST DO IT.

Ceilidh is checking in! I still haven't gone on my journey yet, and the hiatus is NOT over, but I do have an update for you. My Dear Supervillain has undergone some major back editing. You might as well re-read it from the beginning so you won't be confused when the next chapter (eventually) comes out.

I do still intend to go on my journey, but after many delays, my would-be travel companion bailed out on me, so now I have to go alone. I've spent this time preparing all over again. I'm nearly ready. Now I'm mostly just waiting until after going on a family camping trip.

New Content: My Dear Supervillain has been revised.

May 8th 2009:
Everyone said a black man would be president when pigs fly. Obama got elected, then swine flu.

Time for a HIATUS. Yes.

I'm all out of pre-made content and comics to post, and I'll be going on a really long trip starting in June. I've gotta spend this month preparing for it, and after that point I won't have a computer for a while... So, yeah, a hiatus was inevitable. Wish me luck!

April 29th 2009:
I like traffic lights.

Expect a hiatus in the near future.

April 22nd 2009:
This reminds me of a French condom commercial...

Nothing to report but an interesting page of Mirror/Mirror... Oh, and I now have an active MySpace and Twitter.

April 15th 2009:
Why does this coffee taste like anthrax?

My life has become an uneventful blur. If there's anything worth noting, however, I've gotten a new digital art program called SAI (no idea what it stands for). I'm loving the way this one does its lines! So, I did a practice picture in it; my first Mirror/Mirror related art! Didn't feel like making a section for it, so it goes in with Original Art.

< Insert funny quote here >

Another site redesign? WTF, Ceilidh?!

Well, it only took me three days. Two, if you consider that the first night I was working on a different layout that I decided against using. If you've browsed through my web design section, this layout might seem familiar: yeah, it's based on the Tea with Tea & Tea class project. Only, instead of using tea as a theme, I used dragonflies, since they are very much a part of me, even though I hate em. They always bite me... *grumble*.

Regarding the actual site's content: Last week's update happened to fall on the 1st of April, so I felt obliged to pull an April Fools joke. Mirror/Mirror is NOT over, but to be honest, I'm suffering some severe artist's block.

April 1st 2009: You shouldn't burn it just because it EXISTS... you should burn it because it exists better than you do.

Okay, I'm just too bogged down by planning my walkabout and feeling too sick from seasonal allergies to keep working on this anymore... Mirror/Mirror is over. The End!

New Content: Mirror/Mirror #34 (Fake)

March 25th 2009: If I drool on it, it's mine.

I've been so sick lately. Spring allergies seriously knock me for a loop and last for a couple months. Ugh. *Sniffle* It's hard to feel motivated to do anything when you've only slept a few hours over the last few days.

March 18th 2009: Reindeer really exist?!

My Dear Supervillain progress: It's not posted yet because I'm only partially through. I finished fixing all the annoying little grammar and spelling issues. I fixed a few odd inconsistencies like news reporters changing names and their money going back and forth between dollars and gold. I fixed a few badly-explained things. Next, I shall add some foreshadowing for certain events and the arrival of certain characters. That should be fun, and it should be done by next Wednesday. The next chapter is a work in progress.

Mirror/Mirror progress: Due to some design problems and plot issues, I've had to go back to the drawing board. It's ready and well up to page 38, but beyond that, it's still being drafted.

Wondering why these things are taking me so long? I've got big plans, but they're not art related. I'm going to shift my lifestyle around soon, and it's likely that I'll vanish from the internet for a few months. In the meantime, I'm raising funds, making plans, and generally preparing for change.

I've temporarily changed the prices and variety of commissions. Check it out!

  • Pencil Sketches: $7 (extra characters, $2 each)
  • Inked Drawings: $10 (extra characters, $3 each)
  • Inked and Colored Drawings: $15 (extra characters, $3 each)
  • Emoticons, game sprites, avatars, and other pixel art: $5 each
  • SPECIAL: Character reference sheet containing one character (full body) and five detail shots or facial expressions. Full color with background of choice. Perfect for gamers or roleplayers! $25

... Due to my current time constraints, website/flash/comic commissions are temporarily unavailable. Sorry for the inconvenience.

March 11th 2009: LOLOLOL jk i r funny nao haha

Currently planning an extended trip. Good thing I make all these comics in advance nowadays!

The edits on My Dear Supervillain are coming along nicely. I had to stop for a while because I made the silly mistake of switching my keyboard to dvorak, hence the delay. It might be next week or the week after that the edits are posted.

New Content: Mirror/Mirror #31

March 4th 2009: Brush your teeth.

Sorry, I'm running a little low on random or funny things to say. Don't even have any life updates to share. It's been an uneventful week... Maybe I'll have something worth saying next week?

New Content: Mirror/Mirror #30

February 25th 2009: Oh, I get it! It's a NARWHAL!

Guess what's stuck in my head right now? NARWHALS. Seriously, check this out. It's narwhalicious. http://www.sheezyart.com/art/view/2013814/

So, aside from that shameless link to randomness, what's new? Comics, and that's basically it.

New Content: Mirror/Mirror #29

February 18th 2009: Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Spring will be springing soon in the northern hemisphere. I love it, but I get absolutely evil allergies!

My Dear Supervillain will soon go through some substantial changes in earlier chapters. Back editing time! Like so many of my projects, I hadn't planned it very well before I started, so now I must go back and fix it to match my plans.

February 11th 2009: The sky offers free showers.

Next week, My Dear Supervillain will go through some substantial changes in earlier chapters. Back editing time! Like so many of my projects, I hadn't planned it very well before I started, so now I must go back and fix it to match my plans.

I might still have a few bugs to work out with this site layout, and I might have a few things to add to it. If you have any problems, please tell me.

February 4th 2009: Just because it's invisible doesn't mean it isn't lying in wait to steal your lunch money.

My Dear Supervillain is still on hold, due to me fixing up this website and trying to finish a commission.

January 28th 2009: Can you hold my banana while I take off my shirt?

Searching for employment sure takes a huge chunk out of one's time. My Dear Supervillain is still on hold.

Currently taking recommendations for a new color scheme. This just a visual fix-up, not a site rebuild. I don't have a time frame in mind; I'll get to it when I get to it.

January 21st 2009: In the darkest of nights, even the smallest candle can light your way.

Good luck to President Obama. These times are tough, but he might be what we need to get back on track.

Sorry about the delays on My Dear Supervillain. Making my portfolio is a higher priority, but the next chapter might be ready next week.

January 14th 2009: Stop putting your foot in your mouth. It's not mint flavored.

First update of the year, woohoo! And this one's a double update. Enjoy your two pages of Mirror/Mirror, your fan art of me, and revel in the fact that the internet is consuming your life!
