Post by charles_yo »

hopefully i won't get in trouble for putting this here and in the valiant art section.... :o

hey guys, finally put my money where my mouth was and decided to do the comics that have been in my head forever. I've created Yocomics.net to host all the work that I'll be doing. The first story, The Carnival: The Human Hourglass is starting and I'll be putting more pages up each week.

Take a look and let me knwo what you think. Under the commission pages you find a few that I've done for the kind folks here, and some cool stuff under inks as well.

thanks all for taking the time to click over~!

Wow, one of the former Valiant creators comes on and shares his work with us? How cool is that? Thanks, Charles.

I look forward to reading this.

all right! been working hard to get ahead of the my own self imposed deadline so we should have a steady flow of pages for a while.

Page 8 is up at http://www.yocomics.net/thh/title.html Almost halfway through the story and hopefully the gap between pages hasn't put everyone off it yet.

I fully admit taking time with the art, mostly because of the day job and being a good husband and dad, but also i haven't gone this far to put out art that i'm not proud of, so i'm really trying to make this art kick some butt.

let me know what you guys think!

two new pages up to check out. One of them is reproduced below.

here is reality: there are only some many hours in the day, and while i've been concentrating on making art, i've been not doing some of the things that i need to be doing in the real world. I'll be posting the rest of the pages as they exist up to the point that i have to stop production, just to get them out there. Just in black and white, no tones. That way you all can at least see how far it went. Hopefully i'll get to finish things later. http://www.yocomics.net/thh/page9.html

sadly, the real world with a terrible economy is calling right now.
