For a change of pace......

So far the donations for the full colour Yitsana/Ryoten comic is at 5/50 dollars.

In other news, I was contemplating making a bit of an artbook. Not sure why.
It would encompass misc. info, like full in-depth character profiles, series of colour pictures, and even a short piece of two unrelated to the current story arc.
I was wondering if there was any interest in this. Aka- would anyone actually spend any money to purchase it?
It'd be like the Windre comic, in you'd really only be paying to have the piece made.

If anyone has some suggestions on something that I could make that would encourage people to donate/buy, please let me know.

In other news: Farrah from Prince of Persia Sands of Time really needs braces. >_<

Otakon is around the corner.....

I'm off to Otakon today,
So I thought I'd let everyone know what DitLoaCs presence there will be......
I shall be enjoying the con. My tentative cosplay schedule is:
Thurs: civillian gear
Fri: Gally from Battle Angel Alita Last Order (volume four cover)
Fri night: PJ female Kamui from X/1999
Sat: Kamui from Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations (yay for an exscuse to wear my vampire fangs!)
Sun: Civillian gear (jeans equal love.)
Mon: More civillan clothing

Sera will be dressed as Ayame Sohma fri, Hinto night gown fri night, Hinoto Saturday, and casual clothes all other days.

I shall be attending all the doll meets (provided I'm up in time), the Women in Webcomics panel on Friday night, Dub Actors After Dark, Embroidery workshop, the Gaia panel, Basic Flash Animation, and some various other panels.

Now, why I bothered posting this stuff at all? Because a friend said he would print out some flyers for DitLoaC that I could disperse through the con! They shall look like this (I think it's cute, for doing it in one night, I also think I'm getting good at doing jeans. But that's just me.. PS-Photobucket, you are to dang slow!):


PS- Take a vote. Who is your favourite character? Answer in the shout box. The winning character will get a personalized b/w pic done up of them!

Donation button works againb

So now if you scroll over mini-me, you'll notice yer cursor changes.
I got my doll, so I had shut it down, but left the pic up, as I couldn't think of anything to fill that spot on the menu. I guess it worked out for the best. I'll replace it with a cuter Mini-Mineka sometime in the week when I turn on my art computer.
But anyway, it's back up cause I'm going to work on the two DitLoaC projects, even if I'm the only one who ends up seeing them.
I'm actually gonna go curl up with my booklet and listen to Nightwish numerous times so I can get the timings down for the MV.
I did start on the storyboard for date comic, and all I have to say is: Yitsana.... you are the embodiement of all silly self-conscous girls everywhere. I do feel bad for her, her amazing wonderful date is gonna come off looking more like an episode from the Ghostbusters cartoon >_<

Want to know....

So, Otakon is coming up, and I guess I'm the only one who reads DitLoaC who's going.
But, anyway. I was wondering:
I'm working on a full colour 24-page comic of Yitsana going on a date (can you guess who with?) as well as a ten minute music video (of sorts) of Yit and Lit visiting Sara's home in the country to Nightwish's song Beuty of the Beast.
I was wondering if people would be willing to donate to get these up on the site? If I can get fifty dollars in donations, I'll put the 24-page date comic up in the fanart pages (or put it in before/after the week of colours, and just have three-solid weeks of daily updates, up to you guys).
I'm still working on how much the video might be worth. But as opposed to the donation incentives last time I wanted money (I'm so greedy T_T), when I hit the quota, it'll be a present for all readers.

So what do you guys think? Should I work on both projects, or not even bother?

Because we promote our friends

My friend Kitty (no, that's not her real name) has just started her webcomic, it's called "Amateur Heroes", and is currently on page two. It has some.... less then happy language? in it. So it's T+ in my book at the moment. I'd think if yer old enough to get away with reading DitLoaC (in all it's Lit-raciness) you can likely read this.

http://www.freewebs.com/katcomix/amateurheroes.htm

I'll be putting a banner up on the links page when I get one.
As of right now, the pages are in grey-tones. Not to be confused with greyscale. Where as DitLoaC is grey scale (me and my love of screen tones >_<) her's seems like it's full colour and then she hit the greyscale button in adobe. For those who know what that means, go out and play, you spend to much time on your computer!

So, go and read it! I have no idea what it's about, it updates once a week, on Mondays, and is by a very kooky girl. We can all discuss it in the DitLoaC forums!...... if the forums ever gets more then three readers -_-

I'll be quiet now!

Otakon Aug. 8th-10th

Otakon is coming up at the beginning of August, and I didn't think I would be going. But due to circumstances, I now have the funds available to attend.
So for anyone interested, I will be at Otakon 2008 this year! Okay..... well, I still might NOT be, but 75% chance I WILL be there. I won't, of course, be in the artists alley. But I'll be around for anyone else who feels like getting a personal scetch or just chatting.
Just thought I'd drop you all a line. There's also an Otakon thread in the DitLoaC forums for anyone else who is planning on attending!

For all those interested.....

Rememeber me pestering everyone about donations? About the doll?
Yea, SHE CAME TODAY!..... well, I guess techniquelly yesterday. I spent five hours doing her face-up (make-up, but because the dolls don't have 'faces' we call em face-ups) I'm still working on weaving her wig. It's a long pain in the arse project, for those familiar with latch hook rugs, that's how I'm making her wig. So I can style it any way I want without worrying about wefts showing.
Anyway, she has her own LJ account, Purple_Seraphyn for anyone who belongs to LJ and wants to add her (I'm such a dork. I freely admit this, however because of some of the shots involving painting her body. You MUST be 18 and over, and trust me I will have you prove it to me.)
For anyone curious as to what she looks like, these were the two uber quick pages I put together in regards to her box opening:
Page One
Page Two

and Here's two shots of her face so you can see what she looks like:
Shot One
Shot Two

I love her, but that's just me. Thank you everyone who helped me to add her to my house hold. She's going to get spoiled with lots of clothes (although making doll clothes is more annoying then human clothes, cause humans can squeeze into stuff... dolls can not. Nyarg.) And I promise to get back to work on DitLoaC so there won't be any gaps or delays in the comic! Wheee! I've almost story boarded to the end of chapter five....... I'll shut up now.
