Time Flies!!!
I just realized that its been over a month since I posted the first part of Chapter 1. Whew. Although the script of chapter 1 is already finished and chapters 2 and 3 are already plotted. It took me longer to finish the drawings. The sketches are finished and scanned already, inking and coloring it digitally just takes so much time. Specially if I'm just using a mouse. Although I was able to got hold of my old but reliable graphic tablet, I wasn't able to use it much, just so much distraction here.
For the meantime, I'll give some backgrounder ( I hope I don't bore you).
Personal Background.
I have been drawing ever since I was little boy. I got the habit from my brothers I guess. Our eldest brother is the more talented one when it comes to this area. I also love reading comic books. I've been reading Superman, Batman (from DC Comics) the X-men titles, and my personal favorite Spiderman and other titles from Marvel ) . In college, I friend of mine introduced me to Wetworks by Image Comics. And while writing this blog I found the creator of this title's blog, Whilce Portacio.
Well, due to rising cost of comic books, I wasn't able to keep up with my favorite titles, and ultimately stopped buying them. *sigh*.
While in college, still. A friend invited me to an Aikido dojo. Though I love martial arts, I never had joined any dojo's before that day. After sometime, he stopped practicing, while I went on.
Then while on vacation I saw Samurai-x! I instantly fell in love with the series. I'm not a morning person, but I would get up at 6 am and sit in front of the tube just to watch this series! Dubbed in English or not!
I don't remember when neither how it started, but I have been having this interest in Japan and its diverse culture.
Though I haven't gone to that place (I hope someday I could and would), my interest keeps growing. So when I thought of creating this FictionBytes, I did some research and still keep on doing the research. I'll be posting some of results of my research and the source in between issues.
And thanks to my Fans, though I know you are still few in numbers, you are my new inspirations to continue this fictional blog.
