Weekly update for Feb. 18, 2019

Sample pencils from Astray3 Chapter 3 page 28

No need for translations this week dear readers. ( No Saturday translation post. ) I thought the page could speak for itself this time.

There are a lot of new developments percolating under the comicy surface my friends. I just finished writing a lengthy update on the Patreon post for today’s page. I would suggest checking it out for more details. https://www.patreon.com/posts/24778364

That is all for now. Till next week!

Weekly update for Feb. 11, 2019

Sample rough from Astray3 Chapter 3 page 27

Hello readers,

After a short delay Astray3 is back with page 27. While illness and work was the primary reason for the delay another was experimenting with a new coloring process. The new method is based on current digital painting processes. Of course, it’s simplified for the speedier demands of comic creation. I’m fairly pleased with the direction. Although, there is still plenty of kinks to work out and exploration to do with the new process.

In other comic news, updates should largely be back on schedule. However, I should know better than to jinx myself by declaring that. Let’s hope there won’t be any production obstacles over the next couple of weeks.

That is it for now. All the best till next week.

Weekly update for Feb. 3rd…and I’ve been sick. ( Aka, late updates again. ) Plus, miscellaneous art!

A recent Adobe Illustrator creation. For more info check out the old Patreon post at https://www.patreon.com/posts/a3-designs-3-pg3-20905336

Sorry folks, I got hit by a bug that threw a wrench in the comic production last week. So, no update today. I hope to have a new page up by Thursday. However….I also have a work related trip coming up this week. Thus there maybe no update this week at all. Let’s hope I get a lot of work done over the next couple of nights. I apologize for the delay.

See you soon,

-Eldon

P.S. In the meantime, here are some of my Procreate doodles from the last several weeks.

Weekly update for Jan. 28th. YES, there will be an update today. Only late…

Yes, there will be a comic update today. The art is ready, but the lettering just isn’t done yet. However, since I have work in the morning, I can’t finish the lettering till Monday night.

Sorry for the wait. It’ll be up before you know it.

All the best,

-Eldon

Weekly update for Jan. 21th ( No comic update this week. )

Hello friends,

I’m pushing page 26 to next Monday; January 28th. By my estimation it won’t be ready in time for Thursday and I’d like to get back to regular Monday updates. This leads to the greater problem of keeping updates on a consistent schedule. However, I don’t see that changing without at least a month long break to rebuild a hardier buffer.

How do you readers feel about the pace of Astray3 updates? Would you like to see the comic continue on a week to week basis allowing for occasional one week gaps? Or Month long update breaks to guarantee consistent updates for several months before another break is required?

Let me know in the comments.

Be back soon,

-Eldon

And here are some Procreate pics from the previous week. Enjoy!

Weekly update for Jan. 14th ( It’ll be another Thursday update week. )

This posted on the Patreon page a few days ago. It’s worth visiting there from time to time to see new stuff first. https://www.patreon.com/posts/gomradi-profile-23935633

Yup, it’ll be another Thursday update week. The “inks” and writing are done, but the colors will need some time yet. I’m optimistic that we’ll be back on Mondays next week. However, that shouldn’t be taken as a guarantee. In the meantime….ummm…here is a miscellaneous digital painting experiment picture.

See you Thursday,

-Eldon
