Learning Photoshop

Journal Entry: Mon Jan 14, 2013, 10:48 PM
Facebook Fan Page: [link]


So some of you may have noticed that sometime over the course of the last three months, my drawing style and lineart have changed? This is because I recently switched from drawing, colouring and shading my comics entirely in Flash, and instead switched across to using Photoshop. It's improved the speed at which I can make comics, but it can take longer to shade, depending on the complexity. I have been practising my ass off in a bid to try and get around this, hence why some comics I unshaded, and some are.

It's currently not a problem, but I have fallen in love with Photoshop. I got the latest CS6 editions when I got my brand new large wacom board last year, and was tentative to use it at first to use it as I have never really done much with it other than background art in the past. If you get can your hands on a legal copy of photoshop with an expensive wacom board, I'd highly recommend it. Feels good to have some professional software to help me with my comics.

I have actually put my copy to good use when I learned how to animate with it, now, don't get me wrong. I love flash for animating, and will be using it for such in the VERY near future, but I can speed animate basic drawings in photoshop, export and import into flash, and my time to make a good quality animation has been cut down. I'm considering putting together a proper animation as I have attempted in the past, soon... but that all depends on workloads. For now I have a lot to work on as I'm currently a colorist for some of our other comic projects, and background and effects artist on our super secret project, and don't forget I am always actively working on House of Heroes, DEMONBOY and Tales of Atlantis. :P

It's a busy life. :P

Anywho, I just wanted to let out an update and generally touch base with everyone as we get back into a work schedule again. :)

==============================LAST JOURNAL: HOUSE OF HEROES!  - 15 of January 2013.

What was that? House of Heroes? And a brand new House of Heroes folder? I'mma here to let you know that due to delays with my book release, I am making good on my promise and releasing House of Heroes: Living With Demons, EARLY! That's right, I'll be releasing a comic every Wednesday and Saturday. I will also be chucking in brand new bonus issues with this every Monday. :)

This is the release of the storyline version of the comic, the book will be released but for now, I am tired of waiting for incompetent companies to make good on their promises so I figured hell, I'll just go back to the good old days of uploading rather then hoarding all my comics in an organised folder. They were made to entertain, not gather dust, so I hope you will all enjoy them.
-Lourwind.




==============================LAST JOURNAL: WE ARE BACK, GUISE!

Lets skip right to the chase, 2012 sucked!

Not a single doomsday cataclysm, and believe me, we tried- I mean waited... for the world to end, but nothing happened, so instead we finished the year off like every other year with Christmas and Holidays. I was supposed to upload several comics I had completed before our assigned holidays in the group began, but instead I ended up leaving slightly early with my future father-in-law to head down to Jacobs Well for a weeks worth of fishing and generally doing guy stuff. However, being Summer, storm season caught up with us pretty quick, and the area between Jacobs Well and Stradbroke Island here in Queensland, was extremely rough... and fishing was down right impossible thanks in part to Holiday Jet-skiers speeding up and down the local fishing channels.

While we ended up catching nothing, it was a fun week. When we got back, I took a second week off from drawing, and waited until I was literally bursting at the seems to hook up my wacom board and unleash some creativity. I began crafting a ton of brand new comics and I'm currently colouring them for upload, plus touching up the old ones from last year that I promised to finish. I'll upload the completed comics, plus a really cool "Wut-If" poster featuring Demonboy and Janice, that I worked on over the weekend.

As you can tell from Duke's current uploads, we're back and we have a metric ton of materials to begin uploading and if I can talk the others into it, maybe we can start revealing our super secret project with teaser posters and maybe screencaps. However, that depends on what Phi and Dukey have to say on the matter. None the less, enjoy the new materials and we look forward to an epic new year of working our asses off harder than last year.

On a side note, how was everybody elses holidays? What did everybody get up to? :)

The artist who used to work on your Pokemon art left months ago, however, we still do remakes of other artists pictures by request. It depends on the backlog of studio work.

Firstly, those survey sites are all scams. Most of them never pay up because despite answering all the questions, you never quite "fit" the "critirior" that they are looking for.

Secondly, I'm still interesting in advertising. Hit me up on my Lourwind page on facebook, I got a few thousand folks I can advertise you towards.

hi,

ok, i need you to advertise, i run a small anime company called animeatru or Animea Tru, a anime company that sells video games, drawings, electronics, books, yugioh cards, etc. You probly heard about it. here is the website link, [link], i want you to direct people to my website, and talk about the stuff i have up for sale on uh animeatru ioffer, or animeatru anime store. talk about me on fb, twitter, youtube, gaia, deviantart, chat rooms etc. ok

now for my part of the deal.

google one of these two websites or both, one is called"swagbucks" make money online by watching tv, playing games, and doing surveys, a paypal bank is required. the other is called "cashcrate" make money online by doing surveys, completing little jobs, or by doing offers for quick easy cash, they send you a check, so go to a check cashing place. its all been verified so relax.

if your under 18 go to craiglist and look under gigs for little jobs where people pay you by cash. little jobs include, writing, drawing, modeling, moving, cleaning, and more. You can also, pik up cans (soda cans, beer cans, aluminum cans), and turn them in to a recycling place that give you money for cash.

Pretty sure you are a scam artist from the looks of the three copypasta messages you just dropped to me in reply.

you see i run a anime company, maybe you heard of it, animeatru or Animea Tru. um the business hasn been going so well lately, what i need is for you to um advertise the stuff im selling on my stores. all my stores are located on my anime website here. [link] , the stores i mostly need you to advertise is uh animeatru ioffer store, and animeatru anime store.so i need you tell people that product is for sale at the animeatru store. tell people on fb, youtube, twitter, deviantart, uh, or on just chatrooms, hell even wear a shirt and walk around with it. just talk about the website, and stuff i have up for sell on the animeatru website.




ok, now it time, my side of the deal, if you need to make money online, there are 2 ways if you are 18 years old. 1 way is google a website called "swagbucks" , on this website you can watch tv, playgames, answer questions, and even shop for money but you will need a paypal account. The second way is to google "cashcrate" on this website you can take surveys and do little jobs for money, also, participate on offers for some easy quick cash. but you need a bank account or go to a check cashing place, because the first payment is through check, the second one is through paypal if you make 500. Relax, i verified both of these personally, they check out, i promise. they will take time but if you keep at it, you see the cash.

if you are not 18 years old, there are three ways. 1 way is to make money by piking up cans lik soda cans, aluminum, and turning them into a can recycling place for cash. 2nd option is to, draw anime drawings and ask people for commissions on deviantart. but you will have to build a rep, and ill help u with that, relax. then there is a website called craiglist, selling things and taking cash only, you can also look for a little job and make some quick easy cash. go to craiglist, and look under gigs, thats where they put the little jobs. jobs lik cleaning, moving furniture, drawing, modeling, writing, uh and some other stuff.

Dont let me down, im depending on you. when i move up in the ranks, ill see if i can pay you to advertise, thanks for your help.

Thanks, i have to put some some stuff up for sale, when i finish, i will contact you in time, and i will also give you the two websites where you can make money online.

If you are under the age of 18, i have something you can do too, but its for peopl that liv in big cities or next to big cities and uh if not, there is something else you can do but it wont be easy. I will tell you about all this later, until then, wait for my signal.
