Good news everyone!
Aug. 1st, 2011 11:25 pm You guys remember that "Womantology" project i'm on, yes? Well, the kickstarter just reached 77 000$. The original goal was 25 000$.
HOLY POTATO.
And to think this all started from a random tweet and it's turning into a very beautiful, serious, successful endeavor. Not to mention, this is PROOF ON PAPER that people out there want comics written and drawn by women, about strong women, etc. There's money to be made, comic editors. People basically THREW money at this project. Because they want it. Wake up and smell the opportunity and growth. And stop killing off batgirls and turning the Avengers into a sausage festival.
Even more awesome, in the context of the Womantology, there's a contest where an artist has to design a cover for a single CD for Samantha Newark (Aka "Jem's voice" for you 80's children out there). Cd needed to include headphones, blonde hair, cheeky smiles and smexiness. Also the artist sings energetic pop. So I came up with this :
I really like it. I hope I win. Because I actually like this drawing THAT much. I'd love to see it used. As opposed to just trying, i,m shooting for the stars this time. Oohohohho.
