COMMENTS ON PICTURES ARE DISABLED! 
I
used to read comments -- until I started getting too lazy and busy to. I then felt I was misleading people into thinking I'll read their comments by allowing them, which is a big reason why I disabled them altogether. (I don't really read the front page comments either... though I quickly skim it sometimes when I remember to.) Incidentally, this gallery isn't here for critiques OR praise -- it's just acting as an extension of
my website, since I believe this receives more web traffic.
Thank you for your understanding!
I'm attending San Diego Comic-Con! I didn't think I would go this year (was counting on next summer) but after my Eisner Award nomination, I couldn't resist. Not sure if I'm going to be able to attend the actual award ceremony for it, but still, this is my ideal year to go.
Also attending SDCC is my friend

a great sculptor. Out of the blue, she began working on a sculpture based on my picture of
Hamachi sitting on a skull.
See her blog entry about it hereIt will be done before SDCC and I'm looking forward to the end product!
Things have been quiet on my side. I've been doing some work here and there -- some character designs and a book cover -- but nothing I can make public yet. I attended
Anime North last month and
Anime Evolution this month; hard to believe I'll be attending yet another convention. I'm thinking I might actually get a table in the Artist's Alley at AE next year.
