I'd love to be capable of posting 5 days a week, personally, if only to move the story along faster. With the once-a-week format I'm likely to have, it's going to take forever for it to get anywhere!! >.< *vexation*
Yeah, I only intend to take photos of the really spectacular cosplayers. Some of them are just phenomenal!
I'm not sure what your webcomic's going to be like, Venomeye, except that I think it's guaranteed to be delightfully weird.

Almost done, I wish to God I had a tablet though. I HATE YOU MOUSEY. Trust me, it's weird alright. I don't even know how to begin explaining its randomness (but nonetheless a punchline, funny or not). So you won't be disappointed (in terms of weirdness) but other wise you might be disappointed.

Thanks for the link! But right now it's a little out my range. The only thing left to do in the page is a man... but for the life of me I can't do it with a mouse. I was thinking of replacing the man with something else or keeping him off the panel but that seems cheap. Edit: It's done. www.deviantart.com/deviation/53881902/feel free to hurt me or something. Oh and tell me what you think as well.

Ah, delightfully twisted!
Using a mouse sucks, but isn't impossible. I did my first PWN fanart that way, and it turned out okay. I've figured out, though, that if you're doing your lineart digitally with a mouse, or doing cell shading, Photoshop's pen tool is going to be your best friend. That thing's amazing. It should at least hold you over until you can save up enough for a tablet (or accumulate enough gift certificates to the same venue, whichever comes first).
*snickers at the comic again*

I thought the man turned out pretty well. I don't really have the patience for the mouse. I'm still a sucker for traditional art, though. There's something gratifying to think that its completely one-of-a-kind. Besides, I understand how pencil and paper work. I don't understand computers.

I love the way digital art turns out, but I still love my Prismacolors, too. That's why even though I'm making most of the comic in Photoshop, the covers and spread pages are going to be Prismacolor.

We see now how Cory feels about webcomics in general. XD I subscribe to like a million of 'em, and there are more I know of and want to catch up on over the summer.

Ummm.... Wow.... I've posted twice and my intro thread already has two pages! I must be popular.
My webcomic is going to be a sci-fi, as are most of my fictions because the future's just so cool like that. It's about a robot revolt that started because the main character was killed. Now she's brought back to life and everybody's gonna be like, "Wha?" And continue to senselessly kill each other in the name of nothing. The story makes it a tragedy. The characters make it a comedy. The me makes it great. And yes, many many explosions because things that go BOOM and have that beautiful orange of napalm just make me want to squeal with delight.
Poofie was talking about my Metallic Eagle series. Since this has to be perfect, it's still in the works, and it's about a bunch of people who seek/find Gods and/or try to become them/kill them/ask the meaning of life or whatever the hell you do to a God(s). It's sure to be full of lots of suspense, philosophy that will twist your mind upside-down-inside-out and around-the-corner, hardcore characters, and the best way to decide which way to go, even better than a coin toss, Tyler and Lloyd.

Never been to a Con either. We planned to go to one last year, but that idea got smoked. You and Haruo are going to Long Island this summer, Poofie?

Note: Digi-Pens only good when you have RAM! *smites his computer*

Hmm I've always used the paintbrush tool, never even touched the pen one, I will try it out, thanks!
I agree Wolf, pencil-paper will always be my favorite and it will always be unique.
Totally awesome ideas for comics, I want to see both of them now. Mine's always going to be totally stupid though in a weird way though, I just can't help it.

Weird is nice! At least, that's what Nicholas Cage said in City of Angels. I always agreed with that idea, though.

Long Island? That's on the other coast, Bryce. ...Wait...You were just messing with me, weren't you? XD
What Bryce didn't mention about Metallic Eagle is that it loops back on itself. Yay time warps!
And weird is awesome. Normal is boring.

I'm going to have another finished today, probably within the next hour or two.. but I made the awful mistake last time of putting the spider's legs on his abdomen when they should be on his thorax. Ughhhhhh.
Loops back on itself? I have an idea of what that might mean but I'd rather really know what you're talking about.

Whooops. I didn't even notice. XD
Yeah. One of the main characters, Dak (i.e., Bryce's avatar) is a time traveller, and creates some wonderful time-travel related paradoxes. But I think I may be heading into spoiler realm, so I'll shut up now.

Is there somewhere we can go to check out Bryce's comic? I don't recall seeing a link.
