Graphic Novel & Youtube series

I'm finally making some progress on my graphic novel. I'm nearly finished with writing the first issue in the series. After that I'll get started on doing artwork and will hopefully be able to post it. I'm hoping to eventually pitch it to a company and get it published. Wouldn't that be exciting. Me, my dad and a the guys were setting up the website with are also going to try our hand at a youtube series. So hopefully in the coming weeks I'll have some updates for those of you keeping up with this blog.

Top Villains of all time...# 14

Vincent. A suave, cool, calm, collected contract killer, who has a love of jazz. The villain in Collateral is a freakishly likable character, and you get the sense that if he weren't a hit man you might even find your self having a conversation with the guy. That is where his true villainy is. It is within his outrageous charisma. He has this uncanny ability to make you like him.

I write like
William Gibson

I Write Like by Mémoires, journal software. Analyze your writing!

Found an interesting little style analyzer on the internet and according to it. My style is something similar to William Gibson.

Winter Quiet: A short story

It was quiet and white stretched out in every direction. The sky was slightly graying like a giant blanket covering white plains. Off in the distance could be scene small groupings of dead lifeless trees. Across the the plain a man was running for his life in knee deep snow, clad in thick mute colored clothes. In his right hand was a Glock 19 which he was clinging onto for dear life. He had only one round left. The mans panting was the only thing that could be heard over the winter quiet. His joints ached and strained as his body protested, and screamed at him telling him to stop, but he couldn't stop. Several meters in front of the man was a small island of trees and he knew that if he could simply make it to those trees he would be fine. He continued to tell his body to move forward. Just a few more feet and the man could find safety. The man forced himself through the treeline and found a small outcropping of roots which he could hide under. The man paused to catch his breath panting over the silence. The open silence, not like the oppressive silence you get when locked in a pitch black room. The silence of openness, a completely isolated silence, a cold silence. A silence you can only suffer in winter. The man peaked over the top of the the outcropping. Starkly painted against the backdrop of the white snow was a man clad all in black. The icy cold tendrils of fear gripped him. He looked down at the Glock. He lifted the gun to his head, and squeezed his eyes shut. Holding his breath. He sat for what he thought were hours. He could now here the man in blacks ominous footsteps. He lowered the gun from his head and let go of the breath that he had been holding. He stood up and faced the man, the man in black towering over him because he was standing on the out cropping. The man pointed his pistol at the man in black. The man in black pointed a polished revolver at the man. The man began to squeeze the trigger. Misfire. The man in black pulled the trigger. a shot rang out against the stark silence.

Eldon Tyrell...the man who thought he could be god, only do a better job. Enough said.

Sorry

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, this is what the holidays do to any already lazy artist. I did some sketches over the holiday and should have them up on the blog pretty soon. I'll have some new character pics soon as well. While your waiting though I would suggest checking out the band Sigur Ros. There music videos are amazing so hop on to youtube and check them out.

Just a quick update

I wanted to take a quick break from posting about the evil guys and decided to tell you that I should have some new artwork up very soon. I've been a little dry for ideas so far. I should have some more character pics up soon. Comic stuff is going a little slower than planned so I don't know when the next one will be up. Sorry guys.

Top Villains of all time...#17

This is an odd one but I still put her on this list simply because she's a unique villain...Mal (inception). Rather than having a physical presence like most villains, she's simply a projection, a concept, an idea. But that makes her even more dangerous because she knows Cobbs mind and knows how he works. Not only that but she takes on a life of her own, she is an envious idea one who has thoughts and emotions, an over riding concept, an obsession.

Top Villains of all time...#19

Time for another villain. This time...Ozymandias (Watchmen). A man who forces his ideals upon a world and kills millions in the process...all for the sake of peace. Seems a bit hypocritical to me. What gives any man the right to assume a moral superiority above the general population, regardless of your intentions. And that is the true evil of Ozymandias' plan, is the fact that yes he creates a peace, but a false one born of lies and death. A peace born of lies is a greater sin than a war born of truth.

Top 20 Villains of all time...# 20

Over the next few weeks I will be doing a countdown of the top 20 all around best villains of all time this includes video games and TV as well. So shall we get started. Coming in at number 20 we have...The G-Man (half-life series). No name. No past. No Conscience. We know nothing about the G-Man but he seems to know everything about you. Constantly forcing you in to life threatening situations, he appears to have an agenda and it involves you facing Combine, Stalkers, and face humping aliens. What really makes the G-Man such a memorable villain is the fact that we know nothing and he seems to know everything. Not only that, but when he drops you in a particular time or place you are obligated to do what he wishes you to do, no ifs, ands, or buts. Who is the G-Man?

Kick Ass 2

The first issue of Kick Ass 2 is finally out and what I've read it looks to be another delightfully twisted and hilarious super hero romp. So go out and read it...NOW!!! Also you should read nemesis and Superior. (both of which are Mark Millar comics)

Batman 3 casting stuff...

Apparently Tom Hardy (the dude who played Eames in inception) is cast in the next batman film, and is rumored to be playing the villain. This would be awesome if inception was any indication of how good an actor he is.

Okay I'm back

Hey everything is better now, I should have another friend drawing up by tomorrow, so be on the look out.

Hey quick update

Sorry I haven't posted anything recent, but I've got some school and personal stuff going on so I'm not sure when the next update will be, but it should be soon. Most likely another journal comic or red ash update.

My Friends

To all of you out in the blog world, I will soon be doing illustrations of my friends based upon exaggerated versions of their personalities, or just random versions of them. Needless to say they will not look like themselves, and I hope you will all get a laugh out of it. I will most likely start with myself. So their, that's my update for the day. If you don't like it then, Thppppppppppp!!! XP Also here's a random pic I did at a random time at a random place.

Now im just posting random stuff

Don't worry another journal comic is on the way, it will be up some time tomorrow, also once I get my interview done I will be posting it as well.

Another random post

I am completely and utterly exhausted, being a college student is finally catching up with me. I hope I get used to this. I just wanted to post some random drabble on my blog because I haven't updated it for a few days. Some interesting things happening in my intro to DMA class although I feel quite often that people can sometimes say things completely irrelevant to the conversations we have in class, but thats the wonderful thing about that class it that your voice can be heard. We get off subject so often in that class its ridiculous. I'm surprised we ever get anything done in that class. Also the windows we have in the lecture room are AWESOME. Power blinds are pretty cool you have to admit. We talked about how art is important to the Church today in class it was pretty interesting. In other news my digital tools teacher gave us an extension on our interview project. I'm hoping to do an interview with one of my friends as a zombie survivalist. (I'm looking at you cameron, bryce, and reggie) I think it could be pretty awesome so long as I don't take myself too seriously. Well thats my random update for the day.

To do list

For those of you who are listening to the ramblings of this blog. Don't worry I'm actually working on some stuff right now. I have to do my next journal comic. Another Red Ash, and finish the first strip of a sci-fi comic I'm working on. You'll just have to be patient. Also those of you looking to get a steampunk fix ought to look at the new Bioshock game coming out. Check out the image and the gameplay trailer.
