My comic book is for sale! :D

Lulu is offering a sale on bulk orders of comic sized books that is just too good for me to not try to hit, and it's only going on until July 14th, so I thought I would see if maybe I can get enough preorders for me to do this!

I've recently created a PDF for my graphic novel La Macchina Bellica and have sent it off to Lulu to get a proof copy.

Here are more details! )
So tell your mom! Tell your friends! Buy my shit. :P

A TALE OF FAILURE AND DISASTER

  • Mar. 20th, 2009 at 12:32 AM
paxilam> THE HELL?
I thought I would update the LJ to my DISASTROUS progress on my futa doll.

I realized, as I pulled my first casts, WHY these dolls are not sculpted originally in oil clay. I might have had more success if I hadn't made the mistake during the initial mold making to NOT spray mold release on the mold. That one mistake at the start has totally ruined the doll. @_____@

Because it was so hard to get the strips of metal off the rubber (it was stuck and in some places had to be cut off), I unintentionally warped the clay pieces. So when I repaired them, they were no longer symetrical.

Unfortunately, this was particularly bad in the most important place- the face. The mold is a good 1/4 off on one side.

Casting hollow is also very difficult. @_@ We ran into numerous problems and had to recast so many times just to get the first untinted resin doll. It was so difficult, in fact, that I scrapped the idea of doing dolls for my senior project. Instead, I'm gluing all the pieces together and making her a "Birth of Venus" sculpture (I'm building a giant nautilus shell for her to be falling out of).

I still have the first hollow cast, which I am going to sand and finish for my personal collection (I went through all the trouble of making this damn doll I'm at least going to keep one).

She is 26" tall from top of head to heel. I took a few disasterous pictures to share, and I'll have more once I complete the sculpture and then my personal doll.

So.. yeah. I'm not happy with the results, but I'm trying to make it work considering I've invested over 60 hours between sculpting and molds. :\

Progress on Moira- NSFW )

Foot is too small, but I'm going to work on it more Sunday.

So, I'm making a Futa doll.

For real.

It's Moira, from my comic. Um... she's coming out well. I'm.. very happy with her. I'm going to finish her on Thursday (I'm staying at the class until I finish).

She's still really lumpy, but the clay was too warm for me to keep working it. Luckily it's going to be cold all week, so the clay will harden up a little with the cooler temp and be a little more solid.

Here is mostly the diagram.

And here is the rest. Head, torso, arms, hands. NSFW )

Drama of a broken sewing machine.

ihearthdarth> oh dramatize..
Duckie and I worked so hard on our costumes, but in the end, it was all for naught.

Our sewing machine broke- the tension knob busted and fucked up our stitches.

but they're still pretty cool )

.... going to sleep now >_

Oh, Youka Nitta, how could you be so dumb?

So many cases of direct copying from ads. I mean, sometimes even the same clothes/shoes, backgrounds bit for bit.

Sigh.

You need this in your life.

My personality type: the groundbreaking thinker. Take the free iPersonic personality test!

Now... I have to draw and ink three comic pages this weekend. I guess it was right about the procrastination portion. XDD

Boo. Now I'm caught up on the One Piece anime too, so I have nothing else to watch. D: There needs to be more episodes so that I may watch them, and more manga too! I wish I knew japanese so I could understand the raws.

Also, damn I suck at updating LJ with new pages.

I also have a bunch of art I need to post, but I'm dying of the sickness and need to lie down before having to go back to work in an hour.

I redid the In the Apple tree prints and am quite pleased with the results!

Final Run: Edition of 11
I redid this print and most of them came out pretty awesome. Printed on 2ply Strathmore Vellum bristol board. I ran out of the green used for the first run, so the color is different.

I made a japanese stab bind book for Duckie. It came out pretty awesome. I don't remember how many pages I put in the journal. It's either hemp leaf or tortoise bind. Anyways, book cloth and scrap book paper. The pictures in the front are drawn by me of Duckie and my characters, Traian and Alastair. The long strings in the front were trimmed and tied into a bow before I gave it to her.

I also have a few more prints for sale.

Also I will be photographing more prints for sale, which was my first project in silkscreen- indirect stencils. It came out pretty neat, but I could use the extra cashola. It's more conceptual/simple than my Cillian print, but it's 11 X 14.

I printed my first run of "In the Apple Tree" on arches paper with speedball acrylic ink. Unfortunately, I had used the traditional cutting method of tearing the paper along a ruler, which made registration difficult. I've changed to using straight edged papers (cut with an exacto or paper cutter) but I'm putting up the misprints for sale. They are anywhere from 40% - 60% off what I will charge the good copies for.

Proof Edition of 9. Each print is different and priced according to the problems I encountered and how good the prints look.
