And now for something completely different. :)

Since my last write-up, I have been brainstorming ideas for some sort of project to work on. I was thinking more along the lines of a graphic novel/storyboard piece to try out. I've gotten quite a bit of writing put into it, and have a few sketches drawn up as well, but I'm still not sure if it'll pan out the way I hope...we'll see though, haha.
It follows the "everyday life" of the main character who is your average Joe-bachelor at first glance, but when looked into deeper he is a vigilante/anti-hero of sorts. In the regular panels while he's going about his everyday habits and routines, it's black and white, almost Sin City style illustrations, but when he starts becoming frustrated or in deep thought, it will become more colorful depending on what he's going through.
He has no superhuman strength or powers, but uses his wit to get things done. The whole story will be based on his "journal" and that's how each entry will be laid out, kind of like a helter skelter thrown about account of the day.
And of course, what journal entry wouldn't be complete without rants/raves/bitch sessions, haha. So hopefully every few entries I'll be incorporating a poem (or in his case rap) to sum up his feelngs/emotions/desires for his current situation.

Unfortunately, other than that I don't have much to write about or update here. I've been putting a lot of time into this project, so I've been unable to focus on much else, so for that I apologize.

Until next time!
