First, just a quick note about "
South Pacific Follies" - didn't want to clutter up the initial post. Basically,
Cluedog and I are both big fans of a lot of classic cartoonists. In our last
collaboration, I intended it largely as a tribute in part to
Al Capp (although I haven't read as many of his comics yet, I love his creations).
SPF on the other hand is a similarly-minded tribute to the amazing comics of
Milton Caniff - and while I'm still getting into the early years of
Terry and the Pirates and
Steve Canyon, this series is really in tribute to the stunning wartime, military-exclusive strip
Male Call. We hope you enjoy this little tribute...;p The intent is to update one frame or so at a time, generally 3x a week as schedules permit.
Next, just another reminder that we are rapidly running down the clock on
Art Contest #7 and I haven't seen any entries yet. Not the end of the world if I don't receive any entries - I've got a lot of other ideas on the burners, but I thought this one would be pretty fun. Any
gift art in celebration of the Transformation Repository's 4th Anniversary would be much appreciated as well.
Lastly, I do appreciate the votes in my last poll - clearly a majority of folks (who voted) prefer that I keep the format the same. Again, not much feedback....I'll probably look at keeping the zip/email format but I'm definitely going to *try* switching to a .pdf format for the longer projects...at least to give it a shot. And I might eventually look at e-publishing as well - just for the heck of it if nothing else. Interested in seeing how well some of these translate to hard copy vice just digital.
