Hi guys and gals! It seemed like forever since my recent update! However this will be the last since I’ve decided to drop this project and move on to new pastures.
This to me has been an incredible experience for me as I have learnt a great deal on how to get a web-comic published successfully with the assistance of a great friend of mine, Chemb0t. I also learnt how to print my own book and sell it to fans overseas – both at conventions and online. Despite this whole exercise being a special hobby of mine I knew that it would involved a costs (i.e. lots of time and money), however with that being said it was all well worth the effort, I have no regrets.
I’ve made new friends along the way, gained an incredibly supportive fan-base and gained insightful knowledge on how the comics market work in the real world. I’ve also been inspired by an amazing bunch of other web-comic artists/graphic novelists who are doing the same thing as I am (i.e. via self-publishing initiatives) but have continued their endeavors to deliver consistent and great quality artwork. I wish them all the very best and will continue to keep in touch and support them all the way.
So there you have it folks, it’s been a beautiful ride while it lasted. I’ve managed to make one last update to the Concept Sketches folder. Do check it out by clicking on the picture below!
With that said I am currently taking a year’s break from making graphic novels. I am however re-tapping into my old loves – which is fan art and fan projects (such at the very recent success of the debut of the first video to the SONIC UNIVERSE: Animated Adaptation series). I’ll be placing focus on creating more animated adaptations of my favourite graphic novels (such as DreamKeepers series) and possibly special how-to-draw tutorials of Sonic the Hedgehog characters.
Nevertheless you can keep up with my works that is regularly updated via my brand new ElsonWong @ deviantART account
Thanks for the excellent times! I will see you all again in the near future and hopefully release a brand new graphic novel project – entitled: Ashworth – Tales of the Cursed Wombat
“Nothing ever Ends, and Nothing ever Begins.
Everything is in Motion, and Everything lacks Stillness.
Continuation only Remains.”
A rather cryptic, but deeply insightful summary of what I believe is contained to this point…but that’s just me.
Bygones be bygones, I have tremendously enjoyed the series’ run, pitfalls and late updates included.
I’m thrilled that a brand new story is already in the making and I hope that it is nurtured by all your Experience and Efforts, Darkspeeds.
Until then,
Work with Heart, Always!!!!
Why thank you Banter. It’s been an insightful experience and I thank you the fantastic support over the years! I’m going to go check out your latest e-mail and see what you have to share this time round!
