We now have HALF of chapter 29 fully drawn up and just this morning I penciled up our cover for the chapter. The particular image seen to the left was heavily inspired by a commercial for Michael Turner’s Fathom seen on the back of an old Wizard Magazine.

The particular issue is seen on my desk in the second image, pardon the glare. At the time I got this issue I had no idea what Fathom was, but this particular image really struck me upon the instant I saw it. I was trying to replicate the the particular image free hand, but with my own touch to it. Sadly I couldn’t get it to come out the same way, so I used the original image as my reference for drawing it. Of course part of the production process is that I don’t like to exactly copy or worst of all trace. That’s kinda where the flaws and other touches kinda come in.

Anyway that’s our update for right now. My editor is working on the script, and says he’ll get it back to me very soon. Mostly the changes he makes are really just dialouge changes and some light alterations to plot. These shouldn’t be too hard to work in. I’ve still got half the chapter left to draw up, but it’s coming along very well.

Kinda a remake of a piece I did some years ago where Kalwa was at a rave, except she was sporting the short haircut as it was done just shortly after the Whitechappel (chapters 16-19) wrapped up. Originally I was going to have her sing a Taylor Swift song, but then I just thought Levitating by Dua Lipa would be perfect.

Back from my vacation through Europe. Spent the last week kinda fighting off jet lag and getting back into the groove. Also after spending a week touring daily, you kinda come back wondering what you do now that it’s over. Anyway, I’ve been back to working on art. I’m also writing other stories and comics, but don’t worry I will keep rolling with Kalwa while still working on other things.

Anyway here’s a piece I started just before taking off for Europe, kinda a teaser of our next arch. This next arch will NOT be a long arch like the Japan arch was (we’ll have a little bit of that after). This next arch is meant more like a two chapter stand alone arch, featuring Kalwa and Zack facing the ancient deep waters of the early earth… and the dangers they hold. Check it out below and I’ll give more updates on the chapter progress.
