Anyway, so I won't be around to say much online, but I have a stack of stuff to scan in when I return!

I know I'm looking forwards to all the drawing I'll finally be doing again..... haha

This is the first Long Beach (CA) Comic Convention [link] EVER! So please, come, check it out, and support alternatives to San Diego (not that San Diego isn't great, but it's getting over populated!) And if you do come, swing by and say HI! I will be selling my Witchman Book 1 Preview as well as various prints (if you have a request for a specific print, let me know!)

In other news, after the project I'm working on now ends, I plan to take some storyboarding classes and continue work on the Witchman comic series (issue one near completion) and then start sending out portfolios again. (crosses fingers)

There is so much going on in animation right now. CN is going reality TV, which means less jobs, but Disney buying Marvel??? That is exciting! It probably means new animated shows/features. Cool.

Oh, and for those who care, I got myself a new TV, and it's stupendous! However, we found out our PS2 may have also been busted in the power-out.

an hour drive home,
and having planned to play some video games before crashing all day long.......
to an empty apartment....
and a TV...
that apparently....
no longer works.

It's a three year old TV..
rather nice, but not too nice, just right.
A samsung...
apparently we had a power outage at some point in the day.
I fiddle with all the wires...
got the little red light to go on,
but no picture.

Now.....
I think I'll go cry myself to sleep!

Anyway, I had a great time. Sales were not great but not terrible, and the experience was well worth it anyway. Met some DA people and got to hang with all my old college buddies as well as my awesome sister

I hope to do it again. It seems that the schedule for conventions is shifting around next year. There are a few more small ones in LA and a new one for Chicago, so I gotta figure out where I'll be next and hopefully get my first issue of Witchman out SOON!
[link]

In other news... the studio I am currently working at looks like it's going under soon, so I gotta find myself another means of paying the rent.... should be interesting....

I am going to be focusing also on storyboarding in the future, and I am going to be posting a bunch of old stuff in my scraps off of my website.

Also, I will be at Wizard World Chicago next month, and will not be around, but I look forwards to doing a lot of drawing and selling! If you are going, please visit me at my table! I shall have copies of my comic to sell at discount there.

And just out of curiousity, how many people who are watching me are actually reading my journals.....?

Go here: [link]
and ignore the "coming soon" button- I forgot to change that, but click on the picture of the cover and that will take you to where you can order it online!

Also, I will be selling copies at Wizard World Chicago as well as all my recent fan art and other illustrations- hope to see you there!

I may post some more storyboards on my website later, but I probably will not be posting them here because there are pages upon pages of them. So go check 'em out on my site
[link]

Also, I'm planning on doing an Avatar fan art piece next - in the same style I did the Escaflowne one. Anyone have any ideas for a good scene to do?

]]> ~inneryoung http://inneryoung.deviantart.com/journal/25476384/ http://inneryoung.deviantart.com/journal/25476384/ Mon, 22 Jun 2009 14:45:23 PDT Yup, I will be selling these pieces at Wizard World Chicago, and any following conventions that I have yet to decide on. But I must ask, if I made them available to purchase here on deviantart, would anybody be interested?

Also, [link] will be updated soon with a button to order the Witchman Book 1 Preview from. I'm looking forwards to that!

Look forwards to some revamped Witchman artwork and Star Trek fan art in my gallery soon......!

For conversation topic... how about the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movie....? Anyone interested in chatting?

There were a few minor color brightness changes made, so hopefully the end result will be even better. I can't wait to start selling those
Also, I've seen Star Trek three times already, and if you are reading this and havne't seen it: GO! I couldn't believe during the third weekend of it's release, the theater was still SOLD OUT.

There isn't much on it yet, and the preview book is not available to order yet (I am awaiting a printed sample though)
But go ahead a check it out! Let me know if you see anything wrong with it, and definitely let me know if you have any suggestions for what else I can add to it for now. I am hoping to put up a gallery on each character's page sometime in the future...

Also- my own website again is [link] I put a link on it to the witchman website on the main page, but for some reason it's not showing up... but then I had issues with other buttons not showing up on this website and then showing up later. So if you do go on my website and see the witchman link button on the main page, could you let me know?

And- I've updated/changed and reduced the prices for my T-Shirts! [link] Please, I need as much financial support as I can get right now

last note- I'm prepping for some comic conventions this year- any requests or suggestions on what subject matter you'd like to see in my art?

BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE MY WITCHMAN WEBSITE IS GOING TO BE AWESOME, BWA HA HA HA HA!

However, I need a little help with it I creating character pages and putting stats on it, you know, like name, species, occupation, height, weight, abilities, hobbies and personality.........
I'd like to add more to that list, any ideas what other categories I might include? Please, nothing too... freaky....

THANKS!

If you're watching me, you may have wondered why I haven't been submitting much. I have stuff I could submit, except a lot of it is just sketch work for now, and my sketch work definitely gets less views, and since I have to delete stuff every time I upload a bunch of new stuff now, I just haven't bothered. Still, it's a shame not submitting anything new.... So I just wanted to ask....

who is still actively watching me? And would you like me to be submitting more stuff, even if it's not finished stuff?

Also, I feel like doing more meme things, but I don't know what. If you have any questions for any of my characters, ask, and they will answer you! (or if you know of any fun memes, either text or drawn, let me know!)

ps getting very close to finishing preview book....

And guess what I find out on my birthday..... They are making a Three Stooges updated MOVIE! I don't know what all is included in the word "updated" but COME ON! It's not going to be a bio movie, it's going to be like one of their shorts... only movie length....

Is nothing sacred? Are there no lows that they will not stoop to? Needless to say, I've been a stooge fan all my life. Why does it need to be "updated"? Maybe it won't be terrible, but they really ought to be coming up with NEW ideas in Hollywood. Before you know it they'll be remaking the wizard of oz......

5 things I didn't like

5. The ending. Not that they changed the squid thing to the presumed Manhattan explosion whatever-you-want-to-call-it, that I thought was an improvement, especially for the movie version. But the plot- pretty much everything after Nite Owl and Rorschach arrive at Adrian's base. I liked them attacking him while he was eating, that would have been cool to see in action, the fight scene instead was okay, but Adrian's reaction to finding out he had won, the fact that Nite Owl was there when Rorschach died and then tried to fight Adrian for it, Silk Spectre kissing Jon and not Jon catching her with Nite Owl, the epilogue at Sally's place.... The ending seemed to have the most endings in it and was definitely the worst part of the plot.

4. Sally Jupiter. Didn't mind her that much as young Sally... but I didn't like the changes they made to her character as old Sally. Instead of being a pathetic lazy and frightened old woman, they made her more of this sophisticated rich woman, possibly still pathetic. Didn't think the acting for her was that great, and the make up looked pretty terrible.

3. The music. There was one part I did like the music, the rest of it was weird. It should have had a traditional soundtrack, instead it was like a music video every ten minutes and in between where these weird ambient music, some of which got reused. I'm actually unfamiliar with a lot of the songs they choose for the movie, but the music I did recognize, such as Flight of the Valkyries, and 99 Red Balloons for example, sounded really out of place and even corny. In some parts it seemed like the musical selection was more emphasized than what was happening in the movie itself.

2. Silk Spectre II/Laurie Jupiter. The character. I won't deny it, the first time I read the comic I thought she was just a whiny, slutty bitch too, but I came to appreciate her a LOT more the second time around. In the comic, she has a lot of really funny, sassy and sarcastic lines. And her emotions are what make her real. I don't know how much of it was poor acting, or the fact that they cut all her good lines and changed her dialog to change her personality in the movie that made the character much more bland. In the comic she was creeped out by Rorschach and didn't buy his mask-killer theory, frustrated with Jon and hysterical when she left him, enraged by the Comedian, and resentful towards her mother for many reasons including being lazy, forgiving the Comedian, making Laurie follow in her footsteps, and even for changing her last name. None of this stuff was in the movie. Some of it was even changed. It wasn't just for time's sake. Even little things like saying "Oh my God, I'm on Mars." Instead of "Oh shit. I'm on Mars." it makes a big difference in personality.

1. The absence of the political party scene where young Laurie accuses the Comedian of trying to rape her mother and throws her drink in this face. The reason this is number one and not some other scenes that should have stayed in the movie is because I have heard a rumor this scene was never even shot, and I'm hoping some of the other scenes I was missing most make it into the director's cut or whatever the longest version to come out on DVD is going to be called. Without this scene, Laurie's reaction to finding out he is her father seems like overkill. Aside from the one emotionless line she has with her mother in the beginning of the movie, we don't see her deep hatred for him ever, we don't see her emotionally react to anything until that point and it seems out of place. But also, the Comedian isn't in the movie at all after about a third of the way into the movie. This scene would have been a good way to bring him back into the story, and even to show another, more human side to him. It's a real shame they cut this!!

5 things I did like about the movie, just to be fair.

5. The costumes. The fact that they made the effort to make the characters look as much like they do in the comic as possible, and the fact that they "upgraded" certain outfits that probably would have looked too cheesy in real life. The first time I saw the movie I remember getting chills at seeing Rorschach the first time he shows up in the movie, it was like the drawings in the comic were moving! And what about Dr. Malcolm Long? I mean that was just funny, they couldn't have casted... ]]> ~inneryoung http://inneryoung.deviantart.com/journal/23644177/ http://inneryoung.deviantart.com/journal/23644177/ Wed, 11 Mar 2009 14:11:26 PDT

Life has been really depressing for me lately.

I've recently made the decision to split up my story into many little issues (it's cheaper to print, and I can sell 'em cheaper then too) so I might actually have something to sell sooner than I thought! Ahh, that is, once I get my computer working again....

]]> ~inneryoung http://inneryoung.deviantart.com/journal/23378369/ http://inneryoung.deviantart.com/journal/23378369/ Tue, 24 Feb 2009 09:37:55 PST
Looks like my computer isn't working again, so I'll be spending the next few days, or however long it'll take to fix it, drawing up the rest of Witchman Book 1. I'm looking forwards to it. The preview book is almost done, so once I have my computer back, I should be able to finish that soon, although I'm still trying to come up with a concept for the cover art.

In other news, still been keeping up with "Wolverine and the X-Men" gotta say, I'm rather disappointed. It started off a little weird, but with a lot of potential, and has gotten significantly worse with each new episode, well the last one was a little better than the one before it. I'll still give it a chance, it's only been six episodes so far...

Been reading through Watchmen a second time. Love it. A lot better the second time around. Can't wait for movie.

I saw Coraline also. I had mixed feelings about it. It was good, but it wasn't 90's good. And what that means is that if this movie had come out 10 or 15 years ago, it probably would have been looked over. It's just that it's better than all the crappy movies that have been coming out recently that it's getting so much hype. I mean the visuals were great, but I thought the plot was a little lacking.

I am such a nerd, these are the only things I can think to talk about. But I enjoy talking about them, so leave me a comment if you have anything to say about them.
