Finally got my comic done Friday! Yay! Now, the whole process starts all over again.
Anyway, I put some money down on Star Ocean 3 which should be awesome. I think that comes out on the 1st of September.
Saturday, I went with Erik, Emily and Steve to South Street in Philly. Of course, Steve and Emily were asked to pick me up. They searched 45 minutes for my house. I felt bad for them. That put us off scedule for awhile least for Erik’s mom. But it is her fault for sending people who hardly know where I live. Erik’s mom took us there and Steve’s dad took us back.
God, it was awesome. There were alot of people and everything. So many cute asian girls and girls in general. Wai~! We mostly went to alot of the underground CD stores around. I got the Iced Earth greatest hits CD because I liked Iced Earth but I didn’t really listen to them enough. Erik found some CDs to some bands that he was looking for. Steve and Emily really couldn’t buy anything. Well, Emily did get this amber necklace thing, I think.
We went into this one store that had all this anime stuff. I don’t regret getting the Iced Earth CD though because 1. You can’t do much with an action figure 2. I download anime and 3. I can download music and just buy it cheaper online. Least, that is how I justified my feelings inside. They were showing the one OVA of Fushigi Yuugi in english on a TV there. I haven’t watched that in awhile.
On the ride back, I think I fell asleep because when I last looked at my watch it was 7pm or so then when I looked at it again it was 9pm. I hate when stuff like that happens because it’s weird. I don’t even know if I fell asleep or not..
I couldn’t help but feel like a country bumpkin though. I feel like that whenever I go somewhere like a city or somewhere fancy. I couldn’t live in the city though. Maybe to visit for the day or something but never live. I’d prefer the countryside or the suberbs.
The day was an awesome day.
Sunday I went up to Borders and worked on the script of my next chapter of my comic. I like how it’s turning out. It does seem to favor Bryan’s friends Erik and Zack though. Well, I guess that’s good to develop them early since I don’t know if they’ll just appear alot of randomly in the future.
In chapter 2, Rika Glen appears for the first time. Boy, her personality changed alot too from what I had in mind. I was going to give her a kind of younger sister and older brother relationship with Bryan but I scrapped that. Now, she thinks Bryan is her prince. She is kind of like Ruri, but nicer, and I think I had some one in mind when I redid her personality. Rika has some spunk to her, but Lilly Railey will have even more when I introduce her. Oh, and Rika’s decided trade mark catch phrase is ughuu. Don’t get confused with Ayu’s uguu because I didn’t get it from that. ::Glances around::
I changed Fallena’s design a tad bit. I made her eyebrows darker. I figured since I like Saati and her thick eyebrows. I think I’ll do the same. I think it fits with her personality.
Boy, actually I changed alot. Lilly Crossing is no more. In the old Future Girlfriend she was supposed to be an angel sent from heven to battle Zenos an evil angel from hell who is…well that would spoil alittle bit. Zenos is still in it but he’s no longer an angel, but his personality is pretty much the same.
I really don’t get it. It just feels like these characters have so much more depth to them then the ones in the previous one. Maybe it’s because I’ve become more organized or maybe it’s because I’m more familar with what I want to do? Maybe it’s because I have people (if they like it or not) that I’m sending my comic too. In either case, it feels these characters have more personality.
I decided to scrap the idea of having chapter 4 start Mio’s fiance arc thing. After I gave it some thought, I put in mind the characters and there current emotions. Bryan isn’t going to be that friendly with the class president yet, and not many of the other characters for that matter. So I’m making chapter 4 build some of the overall plot followed by some other minor chapter.
Also, I think my art style will get better as I go along like that guy who made Ah My Goddess. Belldandy was just ugly looking in the beginning but she got nice looking as he went along. I think that’ll be like me. The same with Ken Akamatsu.
After Borders, I went over to my grandmom’s and hung out with my uncle who lives there. My uncle is cool, but it’s alittle hard for me to think of what he’ll think is cool or not. For example: I’d think saying something like we helped a guy only because he offered us money he would say something positive about it, but he went and said that wasn’t cool and we should help regardless.
Well, he was introducing me to some of the music he has. I didn’t really like the southern rock he showed me. I think the guy’s name is Leonard Skinner if I’m not mistaken. I liked Genesis, but I listened to them before. He showed me a techno radio station. I should of really wrote it down. I left around 9:30pm.
Man, I hope I never get fucking old, and if I do I hope I don’t fucking get like my grandmom. You can seriously tell she is lonely or something because she’ll just go off and talk about shit I don’t really care about. Of course you just nod and say yeah, or no or make some kind of comment.
She showed me this little paper tablet she has with some drawings I drew in it when I was younger when she’d babysit my brother and I. Ugh, I didn’t even look at it long because it was just horrible stuff. It had to have been… (Is post before or after? Maybe it’s pre? I think it’s pre.) Anyway, it had to have been Pre – 5th grade. 5th grade was when I started to get alittle better each year.
I got home and I pretty much went to bed.
After this I’m going to start working on my next comic.
