REPRINTS!

Both issues of Finn and Fish have been reprinted for sale in the UK!
And issue 1 will be back on the shelves in Forbidden Planet Dublin!

You can still buy copies of issue 2 directly from me, please drop me an email for more details. ♥

NEARLY THERE

Sorry for the silence, folks! I'm glad to announce Finn and Fish 2 is completed and will be sent to the printers soon! ; u ; I plan to have it ready for sale near the end of July so watch this space!

Tumblr Page

http://absenteelee.tumblr.com for art and musings. I find it so much more fluid than Blogger, so I'm chilling there now.

No news on the horizon yet about Finn and Fish 2: real life has taken a priority so I apologise to everyone for being so quiet. ><'

Finn and Fish; an important note

Sorry people, I have personally sold out of copies of Finn and Fish!

The remaining source for FnF copies is in the Irish comics section in Forbidden Planet. Until #2 gets printed, that's all of Finn and Fish you can get! :'C

I might provide an alternative until I get enough funds to reprint #1, though.... more news on that later.

Post #100 - Eirtakon Merchandise by Yours Truly

Hey all! I'm currently getting ready for the Artist's Alley at Eirtakon and making some anime-related fan made stuff to sell. I will update this post with more item lists in the meantime so check it for any changes!

15 Sept: I have two previews of a couple of things for sale, namely my 'Rei Advertises Intrumentalite' print and the Allied Group of the various Axis Powers Hetalia charms I'm making.

16 Sept: Ha! Nearly forgot I'm doing Manga style portraits! Finished pencil drawing for €6, and inking for an extra €4! I've done a commission recently featuring the client rendered manga-style from photos, so here it be is as an example! (pencils)

28 Sept: The first of my Touhou magnets are up, the first being of everyone's favourite suppository shotting rabbit babe, Reisen from Project Touhou.

4 October: The first of my Secret colour prints is complete! You'll get to see what they look like at and after the con. :) Sorry!

7 October: Added Touhou Magnets preview image.

12th October: Some slightly major changes, people. I'd prepared a Naruto Print, but thanks to some accidental rescaling in some of the prints as well as a few blue drops of ink on many, the price will be reduced to €3. Also I've ditched the magnets for stickers instead due to a lack of experience with magnet paper (it might fry some computer components of my printer!) and not worth the risk to experiment. Good news is that I can make more stickers than magnets right now, they will be sold at a much reduced price to €1.50 each and you can buy the four for €5!

PRICE LIST:

Manga Portraits: €6 (+ €4 with inks ... heh, a slick picture of yourself for €10. :D)
Rei InstrumentaLite Print (b/w): €5
Naruto & Kyoobie Print (b/w): €3
Hetalia Axis Powers Charms: €2 each (*Allied Bundle of 5 = €8, Axis Bundle of 3 = €5, Secret Bundle of 3 = €5)*

Touhou Magnets Stickers: €4€1.50 each, with four different characters! Bundle buy the four for €5!
Secret Colour Prints: €8 each, two different kinds. Find out at Eirtakon! :)

'Lo, for it is done and it is good.

Now to try to get Mediafire to behave tomorrow, while I nurse my perfectly-timed headcold.

Be sure to check out my newest artwork on my dA gallery, I've had a massive art rush on it since reuniting with the awesome peeps I met at Nom Con, as well as samplers of the NOW FINISHED Finn and Fish! :)

Now to do the covers and and info page!

Gaspu! A Work In Progress!

I'm keen on making a comic, and these are the lead characters which I inked today (and last night). The Dublin City Comic Convention is on its way in December, and I hope to debut my work there. :3

In the meantime, I'm pulling together an 'ashcan' book with sketches, cheap and simply produced, and should be ready for sale at Eirtakon 2010. I ought to have details of how to buy it up here soon. Wish me luck!

Triple Life: Visual Novel For Download (v 0.1)

Yes, this is the one that appeared at my End of Year show. It may be rough around the edges, but dammit, I spent months making it! It's 10% game, 90% reading, and you may need to research into what the Visual Novel format is before being sorely dissapointed/aroused.

Triple Life (85.4 MB)

Music is by Kevin Macleod however, and his work can be found here: Royalty Free Free Music!

Consider this the 'Demo Version' of Triple Life. Enjoy!

Note: this VN was assembled for Windows, but if there's anyone who wants to request Mac or Linux versions, please let me know here.

My +1 Year today

Just finished colouring an STCO comic, but today is my day of rest. :D I got a Comickers book before I left Ireland back in April, and an 'Up' hardback book from a housemate. Plus a cute n' kawaii sticker set from another housemate! It's all sorted!

UPDATE: Went to see 'Tooth Fairy' (only for the cheesiness and I could nit-pick some sexual undertones in it...) in the cinema, plus fetched a crayon and colouring book from a housemate (explainations later!), a singing wiggling thing that yells when you throw it hard enough, a mini Lucky Buddha thing and a nice day for all! :)

'nudder Announcement

When my show is over and everyone's sick and tired of Triple Life, I'll be posting a special piece of news. Keep an eye and ear open on this blog within the next fortnight!

You get to see the exhibit and everything!

The VN in action!:

It was a large space to show off my work...:

I also had two monitors for showing screencaps and conceptual work if visitors were already playing:

Reaction Shots

Oh lovely, newly bought white Ninty DS, how you can do me no wrong (in terms of playing Advance Wars and Chrono Trigger on-stop at least)...

I've recently changed the little 'reaction tabs' at the bottom of each of my posts; they explain themselves, but as I post 90% drawings here, I would like a little feedback on how to push the content I post even further, even if now this looks like a voting system on what I should do next. I'd mainly like to focus on more finished art, but as I'll be starting my Major Project soon, I'll be doing all sorts of character sheets and info and want some commentary on my ideas. I plan to start a new blog solely for that, if possible.

M'kay?
