Monday Links and News – 08.25.2014

by Daniel J. Hogan

Look there, on the horizon. G’head, I’ll wait.

I plan to start a new multi-part comic next week on clattertron.com. I based this comic on a short story I wrote a few years ago–which means, the hard part is over. I know the story. I just gotta draw the dang thing. Like Chocolate Quest, I’m avoiding any spoken dialogue so I can focus on the visual storytelling (always a good thing to practice when it comes to cartooning).

I’m nearly finished with a new cartoony header image for this site. I actually was finished, but then I had a better idea and started over. Some times you just gotta finish something to see how it looks and go from there.

So Long, AdWords

As I wrote in yesterday’s newsletter, I stopped using Google’s AdWords advertising service (to advertize clattertron.com). The ‘too long, didn’t read’ version is: I (unknowingly) violated the terms of service by using  Amazon Affiliate links and linking to my stores on Society6 and Storenvy. Oops.

Clattertron Updates

This week’s comic.

A new multiple choice comic last week. And in color! Choose from different dialogue. Mix and match. Have fun!

Hi Mary.

I go over sketching, inking, and coloring last week’s comic. Using Manga Studio makes this process a lot easier.
