Happy Holidays!

No Comments on Happy Holidays!

Wednesday was a two-pager, so I’ve got this for today instead of a normal Moose Riders update. Also, this is filed under the Moose Riders Category, but is in the “other…” comic title so that it’s removed from the normal storyline. In case you’re wondering.

Anyhow, at this precise moment I have completely lost my buffer. Desperately trying to get a couple pages finished up for next week, but things are hectic right now. Hope you have a Merry Christmas (or had a Happy Chanukah) and if the Force is with me, I’ll be posting again before the New Year, but it’ll be tricky. Peace!

Big fat two-page-spread here–click thumbnail to enlarge:

Sorry, but because we’ve got 2 pages today, that means no regular Moose Riders update on Friday. I’ll have a sketchbook page or something like that for you Friday.

Don’t forget, digital downloads of the first two chapters of the Moose Riders are on sale for the rest of the month, so get both chapters for the price of one with the code 1dollar2books!

Not pleased with the “Meat Meister: Master of Meat” logo on the cap, so might tweak it some in the future.

Just so you know–next Wednesday’s update will be a 2-page spread, so instead of having a regular Moose Riders update on Friday, I think I’ll be posting a sketchbook page or something like that. Apologies in advance. Still planning on keeping with the 2-page/week schedule over the Christmas/New Years break, but that means I need to get a stack of pages drawn and scanned toot sweet. Later!

So, here’s a little flashback-within-a-flashback action. If you need a reminder, go check out page 48 from the previous chapter.

I’m really falling behind. I like the twice-a-week thing, but it’s tough to keep up, especially this time of year. Again, I’ll try my best to stick with the 2x schedule, but as we get closer to exam time and Christmas, don’t be surprised if I drop the ball.

Adding this blog post hours after the page went up. Working two weeks ahead right now–I usually upload the page to the blog as soon as it’s finished but don’t always write a post to accompany it until later, so sometimes I forget about the accompanying jibber-jabber completely.

Not sure about the overlapping shouts of the parents. Trying to strike a balance between clarity for the readers’ sake and confusion for the sake of establishing mood. I think more confusion is probably the way to go, so there may be a revision posted later–more overlapping words, maybe smaller letters, too.

BTW–going to have a Christmas sale on the digital downloads for Chapters 1 and 2 starting next week. A buy one/get one free kind of a thing. So if you are giving someone a Kindle Fire for Christmas, you can pre-load it with the first two Chapters of the Moose Riders in .PDF format for only $1! Cool, right? Also, I’ll let the sale run past Christmas so that if you get that fancy new iPad from Santa, you’ll be able to take advantage of this deal on Boxing Day. I’m a giver.

Edit: Just tweaked the lettering a bit.

No blog update last Friday, so trying to come up with something today. Hmm.

I like rabbits. When my wife and I were dating, I wrote/illustrated a story where we (and our friends) were rabbits, moles, and other woodland critters. I’m a bit embarrassed by the art now, but I think that’s a good thing. If 20 years from now I look back at the Moose Riders and think my art/storytelling is primitive, then that can only mean I’m improving, right?

Although, George Lucas looked back at the original trilogy and saw things that needed fixing, so maybe that’s not a good thing.

Eh.
