Tiny soldiers and lists...

 Tomorrow, i'm visiting my family in Ottawa, so I won't be around until Friday. I'm obviously bringing art to art on while my family goes to work, so it will be nice and relaxing, yet productive. I will still miss thee, internet.



Drew a small, adorable version of Fred from Namesake. I still adore this card soldier. He's my favorite, I think.

In other news, awesome stuff is happening on the comic front.

First off, a friend of mine has a great comic for sale, it's about two girls in love, and one of them is a bird lady in a circus. And it's gorgeous. Check it out here.

Second, the Womanthology books have started going out to people. I'm still waiting for mine and the wait is killing me. *laughs* Every
time I see someone post a photo of it online it feels like such a tease. Where are you, my copy? Hopefully not lost in the mail.

There's a lot of really great comics I got my hands on lately. The latest being today. It's something called "The white page" ("La page blanche"). It's a French comic about a girl with has selective amnesia and tries to find out who she is, by analyzing the people at her work, the contents of her apartment, etc. The loss of her old personality makes her feel odd, and she never seems to connect with her past self, calling her "she" instead of "me". It sounds like a bit of a stereotypical american movie, but trust me when I say it's amazing! I especially love this scene, where she's listing and looking at every thing she owns : 



Last but not least, i'm a big fan of Gunnerkrigg Court. And starting today, the creator of this gorgeous webcomic is starting to work on it full-time. He deserves praise and encouragement, so feel free to write to him and donate some, because I certainly did! He deserves it. As a person who is also pretty much stuck working full time while drawing 3 pages per week, I know his pain. And he's a whole lot more awesome then me.

That's it for now. Time to pack!
