Weeks Seem to be getting longer.

January 11 2005

Been attempting something that seems like an Atkins diet, which has the awesome ability to rob you of energy and focus. Lunch time beers will fix that no doubt.

Picked up a dash of comics yesterday, got The Nikopol Trilogy by Bilal and this month’s Heavy Metal, on a european kick as of late. Mail brought a new Megazine and 2000ad as well as Bleach Vol 4 and The DC guide to colouring and lettering.

Woo for mundane listings instead of content!

Looking at my schedual for the next few days, I’m a busy bugger, spending tonight drawing from reference as well as laying down some test sequentials, wednesday I’m plotting out a graphic novel I’ve been stewing since last Saturday and thursday I’m planning another project.

One of my biggest issues is I have all these random ideas for stories, yet never commit them to paper before I get bored of them and move on to the next thing. I need to turn the speed up on the idea bottling planet.

Getting a wee bit better.

January 6 2005

Two new additions, pretty self explanitory. I’ve chucked a PDF output of my monthly playlist from itunes, normally grab everything I wanna hear on the way to and fro work then shove it into party shuffle, leads to some interesting match ups. Other thing is my reading pile, just read Preacher volume 2 which was excellent and disturbing at the same time, don’t know why I didn’t get into this series before now. Ultimate X-Men was pretty decent, some great Stuart Immonen art. story was pretty good too. New Avengers, the team intrigues me, but the decompression of this book is ridiculous. The Corporation, Batman - Arkham Asylum and Sandman Season of Mists are next! Got back into games again, picked up Spider-Man 2 and X-Men Legends at the weekend, both are really awesome, pretty perfect games for both franchises. Currently on itunes : If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next - Manic Street Preachers
