Something of an activity report


I do feel slightly apologetic about the
proclamation made last month and can almost hear people saying 'Increased activity... my arse!' in a beautiful Irish accent.So, unfortunately no new pages completed, but plenty of other things have been going on.

First of all the application for Craig Thompson's residency in Florida was proudly completed and posted a week ago. This elaborate process included writing a plot outline (yes, I know how it's going to end!), a letter of intent for Mr. CT stating how awesome it would be to get chosen, let alone rescanning, printing and sending along a few completed pages as well as character sketches of Lord Corvin and heroine, who are both to be introduced to the story pretty soon(ish).
So now, fingers crossed! Pictured below is the thumbnail draft of the next page to come, which has hopefully also crossed the Atlantic by now. The story should be completed in this format by the time of the residency.


These are simple photographs as the old scanner is still busted. Below is another character drawing of a maybe not entirely positive and chivalric guy. I suggest you lock your teenage daughters up safely if he turns up in your neighbourhood... However, he is going to do something heroic when the time comes.


In other news the 6th Hungarian Comics Festival was held last Saturday in its usual venue, Gödör Klub at the heart of Budapest. Fun was had as usual with several special guests around, such as Pran Kumar "the Indian Walt Disney" and Aleksandr Zograf from Serbia. There's also an exclusive picture of yours truly at the premises, which will appear here as soon as I get hold of it.

Now... here it is (29 May)
