Projects
In addition to the art I make, I have been deeply invested in long-term projects that I hope to see to fruition in my lifetime. Here I'll have some brief description on what I plan to work on, and links to more information for the various projects if available.
Comics
One of my biggest goals in life is to make a series of comics. Right now I currently have three primary comic series that are my main focus, but I could end up doing short stories and other side comic projects at a later date. For now, this is what I have. (it is worth noting that some of my literature might be related to one of these three comics, as supplemental material to the core story.)
Anexentum
Anexentum is the designation of a setting where in three comics will take place. These comics take place within the same universe but at different points in time. The title itself refers to the concept of connection of acts, a binding of events, as the core theme of these stories relate to the choices made in the past and how those choices radiate to events even hundreds or thousands of years down the line. While the thread of the ripple effect of choices is present in each comic, each comic has different intents, elements, and themes all their own.
The setting itself is an alternate reality universe based on our own. There is an earth but it does not have the same continents or history of our own earth which lends to very different elements in how the stories progress. The Timeline between each comic can be about a thousand years apart, give or take. Stories take place both on 'alt earth', along a lot of interstellar settings on scattered planets. The genre for the entire setting leans Science Fiction/Science Fantasy/Future Fiction with a lot of western super hero comic elements.
Ibrida: A story that follows the life and events surrounding Talon, in the midst of a growing conflict between Ertakar and Humans on the Ertakar home planet, due to choices made from a war between them over 100 years ago. While this is the first story for the project I intend to write, it is chronologically the middle story of the trilogy.
Pretorians: This story follows the activities of Munin and other Pretorians as they find identity for themselves in the midst of a civil war. The second comic project after Ibrida, and chronologically the oldest story of the trilogy.
Starship Lollipop: A story that follows the events and activities of the 'Starship Lollipop' and its crew. A mix of spacer slice-of-life and brewing conflicts that ramp as the story progresses. This comic will take place the farthest in the future of the trilogy.
Windswept
Unlike the three comics listed above, Windswept is intended to be a sort of pocket story that is unrelated to the connected stories of the others. It is an adventure comic that will be made in the format of an interactive 'quest' comic, where viewers can provide input for the actions and events that take place. The story itself will follow the misadventures of traveling insectoids trying to find their way home that become unlikely friends.
Adoptables
More of a minor side project, a thing I'm investing in for fun to hearken back to my early days on the Internet, where I 'adopted' dragons and other creatures and made little websites for them. I wanted to do this when I was a kid and now I have the resources to do so.
Collections
A hobby website intended to catalog and keep track of the various memorabilia that I collect. It is very minimal at this time, as I've had to set aside some of the hobby due to financial strain and lack of space to display/photograph my collection.
Layouts
A call-back to a time in the mid 2000's when I use to script random layouts for fun. I love scripting my own website, and I think everyone else should make their own as well, and I think it's something that anyone can do if they get pointed in the right direction. One of the things that made it easy for me to learn how to make my own site or add flourish to my own, was downloading other free layouts and opening them up to see how they work, but these days, it's very difficult to find simple HTML and CSS based freebie layouts. My goal is to offer simple but modern freebie layouts for anyone to use however they like with a little credit and spread the joy of carving out a place for themselves on the internet.
SecondLife Mods
I hang around in SecondLife from time to time, so I like to make skins and mods for models and other little things. I have a little SecondLife shop where I sell the mods I make.
DJ-ing
I do a little Internet DJ work on the side, mostly on Second Life. I currently do not have a set schedule, but when I do, this is where I'll put the details.
