So, whats been happening of late?(graphic novels)
I am taking matters into my own hands, as a self e-publisher, freelance artist, graphic artist, animator and video editor. My animation and editing experience came from University and Cine Group. I am putting some previous animation works onto timeline (Photoshop) I hope I can transfer that to here and other platforms for you to see.
After sending submissions to Arcana, Platinum Studios, Dark Horse, Marvel, Radio Comix, and CBR Comics, and doing several cons, waiting on recognition was no longer an option. I am in the process of self promoting on various platforms which I am putting together. I'll be updating my Deviant Art page, as well as Patreon. I'm close to completing 2 'no picture' books, as well as the children's book which will be going on E-bay and Amazon.
I will also be doing a motion comic for Blond World, how many chapters I have yet to decide. I have 3 chapters colorized. and am colorizing chapters 4 and 5. Whats new is another GN book called Sagant (Pronounced Say-Gent, as in Gentleman). Below is Allura, a Demon who has been influencing and corrupting Disciple,. Whose Disciple? He's further down below, you can't miss him.
Sagant is about 2 personages one good, one evil, merged together into one being. This one being is Sagant. The electrical and purple smoke images illustrate the painful merging process.
His calling card says REPENT, he senses when people are about to do evil, he leaves them that card intending they regard it as a 'sign' to stop, get out of this, having a second chance. Very few listen. To those that didn't, he appears before them, warning them not to do it, or else deal with him. He can be etherial as well as a solid body, usually appearing as a Spector to be sure to get the persons attention, and make them aware of what he is, a Reaper, a Judge, a Harbinger, a Revenant, a Golem. Frequently this leads to scaring the pogees out of his would be victim, and blabs everything. Sagant learns who the people in charge are, as with the pawns, they all get the same card. Use your imagination to Finnish that thought.
There is a struggle between Ahmen and Disciple for control of Sagant. Ahmen is the other person who is part of Sagant, the force for good. They both have powers of the Priesthood, which was part of the reason they merged into a single being. The other reason is the Staff of Axiom. They were among the few surviving males on Triunity (Blond World) I'm writing that story now, which has to be seen prior to Sagant #1 I already have a storyline for Sagant which I'm colouring now.
The font I used for the dialogue does not exist in the computer I'm on posting this, so it substituted Comic Sans, my apologies.
One thing I haven't said about Blond World, due to my wanting readers to 'discover' these things as they read along, is that Earth Sheila lives in Montreal. Sheilas building..

I put my animation experience into the still images I create for all GN works, illustrating motion in the characters. These 'busy' panels show the merging, i.e.; the painful birth of Sagant.

One thing I haven't said about Blond World, due to my wanting readers to 'discover' these things as they read along, is that Earth Sheila lives in Montreal. Sheilas building..
Is a real building on the South Shore in Longueuil. It's a waterfront building, which faces Montreal across the South River Canal in St. Lambert. Its the last building on her street, which is true with the St. Lambert location I found. The area looks like what she could afford on her salary, and having a view of the city from her apartment was important, so this local was perfect! Being in Montreal, she works in the
Montreal Stock Exchange Building. That black tower with whitish concrete Trim, thats what that building was known as in the 60's - 90ies, (2015 is when Sheila's story takes place in) I don't know if the building has a different name today, or what it's used for.
Its hard to see, but the reflection in the window is Montreal, as seen from the South Shore for real. While I haven't been inside any apartments in that building to confirm what view actually is, this is a reasonable facsimile. More stories will show other places in Montreal, I'm an artist in and around the city, I should show it, its a cool city (**Ahem** Construction season notwithstanding) to be in.
Her work place is an amalgamation of the various offices I worked in, and her ...work mates, are also blend of some people I've had the displeasure to work with. (From 2010 onward, I had no such people around me, thankfully! But before then,...) They're all here, stored in perfect ....ya. I've spent enough time talking about them. I have Macs in this office as the company she works for, Cosgrove Inc, is able to afford a Mac network, and I also prefer Mac's to PC's.
Earth Sheila's life reflects the other Sheila's (Blonda) life, they both face a form of persecution for being Blond. This similarity is part of what links them together. I didn't want to come forward with all this information originally as I wanted the curiosity factor to introduce the story elements to the reader as they read the books. A piece and slice of info here and there was to further entice, such as; But, are both real? is one Sheila ephemeral? Curiosity seems to be going the way of common sense, and the Dodo bird. You have to spell everything out these days,..wheres the fun in that?
So, my Patreon page will provide Blond Worlds story details in an fuller introduction
Its important to have humour in the bleak environment surrounding everything and every one. These moments in life, everyone has, but few appreciate the humour taking place around them, some can, I am one, and I write situations like this into the story.
So thats it for now, you're up to date, and my work goes on. I'll be posting again soon!
