Sunday, July 13, 2003Awhile back, I asked the Neil Gaiman message board if anyone would be interested in drawing a comics book. One nice genleman agreed, and around classes he;s been trying to get to it. He's sent me klinks and pictures to some of the people he's using as models for the charcaters...one was so nifty looking whatr was a sort of throw away lackey charcater is now going to play a major part in the second and third issues, and now another charcater has a tatoo...I think that is why comic books andother collaborative experiences are so cool. I'm now working out why Ollie has this tattoo... The comic book now has gone from a script and a couple of outlines to something that's possible...I can't wait to get his sketches. I figure, to see a comic you only really need one issue done and a complete outline for the rest of the series. (It's a three parter.) Right now I'm listening to some songs from Chanticleer....I don't care for their renditions of more modern things (but then, Dean Martin is the *only* person who can do "In The Cool, Cool, Cool of the evening....) but the older things are eerie and lovely. Right now I'm listening to "Loch Lomand" and it's breaking my heart. I find myself slowly re-writing my musical tastes. I think...regretably...that maybe I don't rock as hard as I used to. That, even, I never did. Looking at my schedule of things I really need to get done, I have made a relavation. Next time I model myself after a writer, (and when I say Model, I mean, study out and see what he did to become successful, not use his style.) maybe, just maybe, I should pick someone a little less like Neil Gaiman. You know, someone who doesn't live his life mind boggling busy. Just an odd thought. ;) Permalink Cindy scribed this at 12:02 PM 0 comments |
