Hey there! Kinda been a lurker for at least a month but just recently started my own webcomic and I thought this would be a great place to host it (along with my own website). I got a lot of inspiration from the great art and storytelling I saw here and it kind of pushed me to start drawing again (something I haven't done with any degree of seriousness in more than 3 years). I am a bit disappointed in my skill at this point but I hope with time I will get back to the level I was at a few years ago and surpass it.

Great stuff around here, guys and gals!

Welcomes!

Personally, I've never been able to make myself lurk for more than a day or so. I get bored.

Hey, glad to see you've stopped spying on us, and start posting :)
I'm not really around much anymore, but here's my Tumblr, Twitter, and Deviantart. Also if you remember me from back when I was around, I'm sorry.

HALLO!

Civilizations didn't get built overnight; the same with artistic skills.

Muffin of greeting while you wait?

Welcome aboard. A 3 year break? That's not so bad, it shouldn't take too long to get back in the swing of things. I took a break that lasted more than 20 years before I started drawing again with any frequency. Talk about rusty! I almost forgot which end of the pen to use.

Oh, and watch out for that Shplane guy… he's got a reputation.

I'm sorry to hear about the HD going down. Welcome to the Duck, though.

Is this going to set you back on your comic updating?

Crash it back. Show it who's boss.

And welcome to DD. It is totally awesome that your comic takes place in Boston. Is that the area you're from? If so, rock on.

The crash shouldn't hold back the updates. Luckily I have my own website and uploaded a fair amount of art onto it beforehand. I expect to update on Mondays (maybe add another day later if I get time). And it didn't exactly “crash” as I described it. It kind of just stopped being recognized by the computer. It won't load the SATA for whatever reason. When I get a bunch of money and don't know what to do with it… I'll see about doing an invasive recovery. That being said… I don't see it happening any time soon.

I'm from MA but recently (couple of years ago) moved to DE. I lived in Boston for about a year and went to art school (like… 6 years ago). I miss it! So.. that's where my comic is taking place. ^_^ Rock, rock on!

I went to MassArt. But I couldn't take all of the….. art, I guess. Too much pressure. So I moved back to my hometown, went to UMD and switched over to Political Science/Japanese. I make no sense. *^_^*

Understandable. Going to school for illustration killed all voluntary artistic drive I had in me for quite a while. Now I'm going back for graphic arts/printing technology. Not completely unrelated, but it'll certainly be less of a strain on… whatever it is that makes me creative.

Good luck with your new choice. ; )

…Yes?

I don't know…. I was given the name by someone else. You'd have to ask him. There is a second part ~> “Nicest Girl & Destroyer of Planets” So I think it's all a judgment call. *^_^*

Ah, see - if we had known the second half of your title, we would have been better prepared! …and you don't look very Death-Star-Like.
