And Shino is his name-o…
By Paokens Keeper on February 4th, 2010Posted In: Blog
This is probably the worst cock-tease you’ll ever get from me in relation to ’shit you may never actually see’. Remember The Littlest Demon Hunter? She and Shino (tentative name) travel together with the Swords Man (who has amnesia), Shino is an amalgamation of two different characters from that series, however he’s different enough that I think he’s his own character.
But who cares? It’s not like you’ll ever see this guy in the comic. Right? Or will you?
Dun dun dun…
No, seriously, you probably wont. Guardians is like Hunter, it exists in the same world as The PKF, but they’ll likely never cross over. And if they do there’ll be a good reason for it.
But really, don’t stress him. I’ve just had the worst urge to draw him since I saw Ninja Assassin a few nights ago (cheap theater, second time), that’s really the only reason he’s standing here right now. He’s kind of a ninja. But not in the Naruto way, in the ‘I’m gonna kill the crap out of you’ way.
Also, I made a wallpaper out of him to say ‘thank you’ for putting up with my shit. If all goes well I’ll have the start of the next chapter on Tuesday, with a rather large announcement about the direction that the comic is going. No, I’m not ending it, just reorganizing it…again.
But it’s not horrible. The quality should go up. ‘Should’ being the key word.
Anyhow, thanks for the best wishes yesterday. I got a new task chair, my old one’s back broke off and trying to draw on what is basically a stool sucked.

But I’m back! I’m back! I’m back! God almighty I’m @#$%ing back!!
So my two week vacation became a month. Sorry. But life got…odd
Yes, I have cancer. It’s some kind of melanoma (that’s the kind that sucks, fyi). But I won’t know more until Wednesday when I see a dermatologist. I know I should me more freaked out than I am, but I’m not. I can’t explain it. But I’m really not.
I’ll be fine. I’ll live. So help me god I’ll live. This is just one more story to tell people when I get old (so this one time I had cancer…*insert punchline I haven’t thought of here*). I’ve got many more good years of comickery in me yet, ladies and gentlemen.
Don’t you worry.
But if I go on Chemo expect sporadic updates, just a fair warning.

The Comic!!
This is easily, the worst of my pre-arc buffer. I promise. I’ve had this joke in my head in some way since Book One and I had to get it out. So here it is.
I’ve also come to the conclusion that I’m a better artist that I give myself credit for…trust me, when you see next Monday’s comic, you’ll understand. I don’t want to start going into too much detail, but I feel like I need to spend more time on each comic (no, that’s not code for ‘here come’s one day a week updates’, don’t worry). I haven’t decided how best to handle this revelation yet, but I’m debating. I’d like to continue on my way with twice a week, but I’m debating a ‘twice a week whenever it’s finished’ mentality. I don’t know. I have a buffer at the moment (small, but hopefully growing), so that should be a while off, but I need to do this comic right.
And right now I don’t feel like I have been. There are too many pages I look back at and go ‘Jesus…I could have done that better’. So I’m debating what that means…I’ll let you know when I figure it out.

Also, fair warning, if I don’t get a concrete design for next chapter’s villain soon there might be another delay. Right now I’ve got the face (more than half the battle) but I can’t figure out how I want his body to look. Nor do I have his weapon totally figured out.
This arc is too important to mess with. I need everything as perfect as I can get it otherwise It’ll just fall flat on it’s face.
I can’t let that happen. This is a precursor to the end of this book, and that HAS to be perfect because that’s a precursor to everything that happens in The PKF after this. I can’t keep stumbling into arcs like I have been. They need to be more concrete before I even draw the first page.
Ok. I’ve rambled. I’m going. But I’m back. Don’t worry.
I’m back.
-Peace
