Art on Demand!!!

Delaqroux Inc Updates!

And, good news!!! A few weeks back, i've gotten this email from a guy named Jamie Lee. He is in Grapeshot's Editorial board and for what seemingly too good to be true coincidence, Jamie and some other group of students studying Media in Macquarie are planning to publish their own magazine called Scope and they are in need of a comic strip to fill in the magazine. Fortunately, i did manage to submit and artwork for Grapeshot recently and who could've thought that one page (makes-no-sense) comic strip caught his attention!! And thus came he with a proposal for me to draw another comic strip for Scope!! WHEEEE!!!!

Who could've thought i can be the most two-faced dude ever as i immediately submitted him the comic drawing i made for the MSA's newsletter. Hehe. Dont blame me MSA. It's true that you guys gave me the first call to draw a comic strip. But it took you guys forever to clear out what exactly do i need to do to submit my work so, yep, gommeneh, MSA...

So yeah, i made this one page (again, not-so-make-sense) comic strip and send it over to Jamie. Things went on smoothly but unfortunately, the comic was accepted for their magazine - only that, instead of wanting a one-page strip comic, they wanted to give me a whole CENTERFOLD of the magazine! Yeah, that is definitely good but i had to redraw my comic and they wanted, now that the comic's gonna be on centerfold, the comic to be in color! And they need it by NEXT WEEK! And i already have my hands friggin full with assignment deadlines! Ngaaaaaa!!!!

I wish i have a tablet... that electronic pen thingy. That would make things a hell lot easier...

But, nah, i guess every good news must have its little twist to face before you really get to enjoy them. So yeah, i guess i'm gonna give it all out and make sure i dont mess this one offer up - not even the tinniest bit! I know i may be slightly exaggarating this but i have a feeling that this is one big chance where i'll be of beyond stupidity if i ever decide to slack this one of. So yeah, i'm on a tight schedule and i have no idea how to make my comic to be in colour. But meh, i'll work it out even if it kills me.

So... Go, Darkie! GOOOO!!!! XD
