Leetle White Rabbit..

Posey is pale. What can I say? That whole blush thing started long ago because I was trying to add color to her. Anyway, sorry for the delay in uploading this one, but it's been a shitty week. I don't mind saying that, because it's not just what's in the news, but here at work too (new managers trying to impress people always work against the peons doing the actual work). So all in all it's been a shitty week all around. Who knows, maybe with a new month coming in we'll be able to turn this around (justkeepswimming..). But enough about that. What good news is there? Well here you go, I finally got started making a new site. A couple of weeks ago, I started up a wordpress blog and am working to convert the site, from my own bubblegum and string code into something that is not only easy to update, but easy to change if the thought strikes me. I'll have you know, I had things to change about the current version of the site as soon as I put it up. I'm actually typing this up on Wordpress as we speak. So that's one of my goals. I'll have the feed ready asap, but for now the posts are going up simultaneously on blogger and wordpress before the blogger version of the blog (both of them) go down for good (and don't worry, all of that ranty goodness isn't going anywhere, because I've already gotten the archives from both blogs going back to 2005 already on wordpress).

Also, you know what else is a good thing? This comic, by coincidence, goes up on the third anniversary of Same Apartment! I like that because I wasn't able to celebrate the second anniversary because of the blackout last year when my computer died. And let's not forget the fact that I've been a part of this wonderful deviantart community for three years AND this is officially my 300th deviation. So I guess good things do come in threes, even THREES (unless you count the wordpress thing.. then that's four..)

Oh, and Faded-Myth, this Gar shirt is for you!

Simply Complicated..

This is my half of the art trade with Simple Comics. We've known each other since high school, so this was a long time coming. I've been wanting to do something in the Simple Complications world for a long time. See our comics bridge each other every so often. Timber Valley, the city that Same Apartment takes place in is situated around a lake. The same lake the titular Circle City takes place in. So they're in the same world, the only difference is that the world is represented differently. We've even had some cross overs every so often here and here.. But enough about that. If you want to find some more Gar and others, go read Simple Comics' magnum opus that is Simple Complications. I'll wait.

Oh, and look Marvel's movie. About time he had one. Everybody and Aunt May has had a comic book movie now

Same Apartment dot com request..

Ok, I updated the site edition of the comic after all these months after my computer died. I'll be back to putting up the normal blog updates and thumbnails in the comic archives soon here, but I'm concentrating more on this week's comic for now. But it's nice that now not only can you see both parts of the 100th comic up there (I was able to update on DA but not on the site, since I wasn't able to get to tomekeeper on another computer), you can also see all the current comics that are up. We're now up to SA#104, so that's good.

Funny thing is that according to Thurinus, I could've updated as soon as I got my new computer.. Not sure on the details, but that's my bad.

Anyway here's a request. Since the site's been dead, Same Apartment's stats on thewebcomicslist.com have completely flatlined. Help support Gar and crew there by checking out the comic on the site. All you have to do is click the link and check out the most current page at http://sameapartment.com/ Just click the link, if you like browse through the archives and if you haven't read the comics here on Deviantart, then you can read through them on the handy dandy browser. But even if you don't want to read or have already done so, then just click the link and move on to other interweb adventures.
Let's see if we can bring Same Apartment back to three digits again.

Echo.. Echo.. Echo..

Is there anybody out there? I hope so, even though there's been a media blackout here on Tomcat Ltd. Let me explain. My normal computer that I use to make the comic and update the site suffered a power surge that completely fried the motherboard. I've been updating through simple pictures on my deviantart page, here.. I have replaced my computer and have resumed on Same Apartment. Unfortunately I don't yet have the means to update the site. On the good side, I will be updating through Deviant Art and will be updating every Saturday as usual. In fact I think I have something right now..

Art memey goodness..

Finally got done with Nyu's Art Meme on Deviantart. I've wanted to do it since I first saw it up there, but unfortunately the Same Apartment comic I'm working on this week is more complicated than usual. So here it is in it's very long cartoonyness. Also how often do you see Dawson Jesse and Leroy nowadays?

Ten Thousand..

A momentous day in my Deviant Art page!

I had to log out and then get the screen grab. I'm so impatient. Oh well. I'm only cheating myself. Time flies when you're having fun doesn't it?

Armapirates..

My half of an art trade. Here ya go Leona, sorry about being so late.

Seems Blogger updated themselves..

Now I can put up the posts for the last bits of news over the weeks I've been locked out. Technical Difficulties shall pass. Anyway, one thing you missed if you only look at the blog, Mac's a girl!!



Yep she's always been a girl. You think not? Go ahead and prove it.

Got some new pictures on Deviant Art if anybody likes that. One thing of interest is a preview of the next comic. It'll be completely cut up in the comic, so I thought I'd put this out as a separate piece, since I liked it so much.



And a bit of development work for Posey's new uniform. This was done in *GASP* real media. Prismacolors to be specific. I've really gotta put those on the site sometime.

One Hundred..

Finally hit one hundred pictures in my gallery. I thought I should make something quick to commemorate it. So here we are. I just hope the next hundred come out as good as the first hundred.

Fat Kid?

I mentioned Benson and Butler back in January. They are just two old mean biddies who for no reason in particular hate Gar. You know how old people can be sometimes. But you shouldn't disrespect them. Even if they are as bad as Benson and Butler. Think about it, someday, you'll be the old person sneering down at youngins with their low ridin' hover crafts and their saggin' space jeans. And their hippityhop techno alien music. Of course a lot of music to me is alien right now, so I may be getting on in years.



One more thing.. Something that the kids down in Deviantart went wild over. Just wild.

Lapses and Lupy..

Updated the site with some new versions to practically all of the pictures from New Years onward. Seems all of them said 2006 in the copyright statement at the bottom of the picture. That and a couple of weeks ago I found a way to shrink the pictures to 100dpi and retain the glows that I usually put into these pictures. Here's a comparison for all those in question of what I'm trying to say with such abstract things as words. Here's a picture without the glows (how it was seen on the net originally). And here's how it was seen when I got done coloring before shrinking it.

Also got done with an art trade with Lupy from Deviantart. Nothing needed to be said. Go look at her gallery. Go now.
