Let’s face the looming shadow of 2018 after an ardous 2017 and know that whatever darkness lies before us, light can overcome it and support us from within and without. Also hoping to finish another chapter of my comic, do more illustrations, play more games, read more comics, work less and earn more… cuz who doesn’t? Cheers ya’ll!
After months of not touching my comic pages, it was nice to open some files for the last couple of weeks and start cleaning up roughs that I had finished for the latest chapter. So, to psych myself up, I decided to paint this… (also, I’ve been watching a lot of DBFZ gameplay videos. 😉 )
I’ll post more progress pages soon as well.

This is another one of the projects I have in the back burner. This one might be the oldest, as it started as a storyboard assignment at school over a decade ago, then became a better developed storyboard for a short film pitch a few years ago, and then a (very barely developed) series pitch after that. Every once in a while I keep poking at it, developing it further. I posted some of these character designs on my other social media pages before, but I just thought of posting it all in one place with some newer stuff.
For the last few months my oldest daughter Maeve and I have been drawing a lot together, and she loves to create characters and tell stories to herself about their adventures. So I decided to vent off some creative steam from all my other personal and professional projects, and when I had some free time, I’d design and paint a character for her. She picked the animals and the names that she wanted and I just went with it. She also has come up with some drawings herself, so check out my instagram soon for some of those. I may continue to develop these characters more and there may be another post for that… but, it’s also time to get back to my main comic after this. Gotta get those girls playing hockey out there stat!
Also, yes, there are 14 characters below, but there’s more to this story and to the number… maybe I’ll explain it further on another post.
There’s so much to talk about, and yet, brevity in reintroductions is probably the best way to go. On that note, here are some process pages for the next chapter of HLG. Roughs are finally done, and now with an increased page count of 60… so who knows when I’ll finish and publish this chapter, much less this comic. A few years ago I told myself working on one project for 10 years was too much, but I only have 2 more years to go on this before I hit the 10 year mark, so um, yeah, not even close! 0_0!
