Welcome to JAWC v2.5 : Bandana Adorned I Start My Rant... Am I going too slow for you?... I mean seriously... I'm dealing with delicate themes here... shit... I don't know if I am or not, I mean I've got up to page 120 of the comic written out but I feel as though things aren't moving fast enough, I've always been too fast paced... I used to do a chapter in 12 pages... now I'm going past 25 pages for a chapter... and it's creepy... back when I started I'd leave stuff out and try to move it along... now I'm delving into the characters and I'm treating it more like a drama when the comic isn't really anything... I wish I knew where I was going with this... but personally I've forgotten what I've written in the future pages, and so I take it one page at a time... and I hope that things will get more lighthearted, but when you're dealing with kidnapping and massive conspiracy, it makes you wonder... what the fuck is going on?... The next page of this comic breaks the fourth wall... in the third wall perspective of things... I want to vague because it's odd to think about but I needed to add some comedy to a situation that's getting overly dramatic... and it's not like I can make the comic fun again without getting through this scenario... I know basically what happens and how it comes about but getting to that point is becoming a journey in itself... and although I'm enjoying the pace of the comic... I worry that I'm beginning to bore others with my melodramatic script... I wonder what others think of how it's coming, and lately I haven't been able to ask these questions without it coming to the point where they're just waiting to see where it's going... The best advice I've ever received about webcomics is to draw what I like to draw and if I enjoy what I'm doing then the other people be damned, when it comes to doing something that you enjoy, you should be your first audience, because if you like it, others will eventually follow... LSES takes over though and I can't help but wonder about things... yeah I plan on drawing a whole slough of comics before the new year is up, if possible I want to get to the end of this particular chapter before the year is over... and yeah, I know you're saying to yourself, "...but, TikiMan that's only another twelve comics... can you do it in time?" and to that I'd have to say, "Not at this rate..." which means I'll have to work hard to draw the comics and do a couple weeks of straight updates... don't worry I'll let you know when that'll happen... but seriously I'm gonna write up the parts to expedite the situation so I can stop belabouring this most unfortunate situation that's befallen the characters... and not because I want to please someone else... it's because I feel as though the comic has been caught in this quagmire for far too long... so here's to hoping the worst can be put behind and the new chapter starts come the new year... Oh yeah.. if anyone wants a commission, please note that I'm taking commissions again, so all the people I had to deny the commission request... well, sorry about that, but I'm back and am now able to do whatever it is you may want ^^;; please note new prices and how to receive the pictures... - Tiki Man
