Remember, we are updating with bonus art and concept stuff all week and next week.

Today, An old picture of Myna.  In color!  Terry tried digital oil painting on her computer.  I like it.  She dislikes it.  Myna has since gotten a slightly darker skin tone, different shaped eyes, and her artist has gotten better at drawing her.

I included the palette 'cuase I thought that was cool.

The (bad) webmaster/ writer here. 

I found Tuesday's page.  It was labeled wrong and uhm...didn't exactly update in the right spot.  30090721 =/= the right date.

oioi.

I suck, I'm sorry.  Tuesday's page is updated now.  If you follow amber_sketches on twitter you know about the horror that was this morning wherein we sorta need to redo Thursday's page.  Terry is redrawing it, and it should be up on time.  Even though it is a crowd scene, and I'm not allowed to put those in anymore.  She is glaring at me right now.


Better news!

We will be moving from Comic Genesis to Girlamatic.  This is awesome for many reasons for US, and awesome for a couple of reasons for you.  First off: they will do more of the website stuff that I'm so bad at.  I (probably!) can't break the webpage with them. Yay!  Secondly: The page will look nicer, we'll be able to add fancy things like fan-art pages and bio pages and all those fun bells and whistles I haven't added for fear of breaking the internet again. Yay!

Thirdly: In honor of the move, we went back and fixed some spelling errors!  Yeah. We're excited about that one too.  Please tell us when you find one.  Terry is a bit dyslexic and I'm too used to it to see it anymore.

So while we will be posting the enitre archive at Girlamatic, we will be posting it on an accelerated shedule (probably T,TH, S, but may be M, W, F) so this is a good time to tell folks to start reading it.

We will be posting new pages on Comic Genesis while this is happening at our old pace (Tuesday Thursday) so y'all don't have to wait for new stuff.  When the Girlamatic and Comic Genesis pages meet, then we will stop updating on Comic Genesis.

And...Now the part where I beg your patience.  Yup, we'll be taking a few weeks off to move stuff, draw promo art, make and order new business cards, y'know all the stuff that is going to eat up our time make make us update late.

So, starting next week, we'll be posting...well...the stuff I'm always interested in in my comics: the background stuff.  The concept art, layouts, the first ever drawings of a couple of characters, some neato prints that never saw the light of day, and a few things that will make Terry want to burn down the internet to remove 'cuase of how old they are.


So, that's the news.  Fun and exciting times!

I've noticed something about drawing comics. Whenever I find myself avoiding drawing a page (I don't always draw them in order) I should take that as a sign. When I don't want to draw it, nobody else will want to look at it. If I'm really avoiding it, then its probably a bad sign. Every time I've redesigned a page when I've been avoiding it, it comes out a hundred times better.

Hi all, this is just a friendly warning that the next couple of pages of Godseeker may include (gasp) female nipples. Not...especially provocative nipples, but they are on an Myna, a woman, and so they may be considered NSFW. Double standard? Sure. But I wouldn't want my reckless nipple-drawing to get anyone in trouble with their employers.

--Terry

Ok, so we seem to have a slight problem here. The pages are going up nice and regular, but the lj just isn't getting updated. Also, I just don't have that much to say about the comic every single week. SO- I'll now only be updating this space when something is going on- I'm going to be at a Convention, we have fanart, I draw some extra art I want to share, or something like that. You all can remember on your own that Godseeker updates every Tuesday and Thursday, right? I thought so.

By coincidence, I actually have a little peice of mini-news about the comic today as well! I have a twitter account now! So, if you wish to follow me, just find me on twitter under amber_sketches a lot of my time is taken up with Godseeker, so theres a pretty good chance that it'll come up a lot in my tweets.

Thanks all!

Terry

Woot. 

We should be all updated for Thursday. 

I, (Lisa) have decided to start a series of LJ stuff called "Fun Facts!!!!11!!!" 

This may be because I am low on sleep, a bit high on caffeine, and feeling the need to waste some time.  This feature will appear randomly, and may or may not contain anything you all are actually interested in.

Today's Fun Fact!!!!11!!! is...

The song I think of when thinking of Godseeker as a whole is "Suddenly I See" by KT Tunstall.

so I'm an idiot and forgot to upload a comic for the 10th till...

...uhm...

now.

so...There WAS a comic for weds.  It's very nice.  It is waiting on comic genesis to update the page. 

...It will show up in the archives as being on time... 

Remember--we're updating m-f through next friday.  Please let me know about any problems with the webpage--I'm still learning it all and I've borked the webpage on more then one occasion.

--Your friendly writer/web"master", Lisa

check it out--we've got another post up. (re: friday)

we'll be doing m-f posts while yarik is telling this little creation story--about a week and a half...or so...

Lisa

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/

er.  also, i'll be fixing the size  problem for yesterday.

will be special!

We will be updating m-f until the story is over. 

The story is the stuff in this nifty art-style.

So, this week will have a comic today (thursday) and friday.

Should be fun!


Lisa

edited to add:
Tuesday's comic is here
Thursday's comic is here

Ok, folks, the page has updated with the new page.

If you didnt catch Tuesdays, then that is over here: http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090526.html

And Thursdays comic is right here: http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com as usual. I'm pretty fond of this one, really. I like how the greyscale turned out.

As a special treat today, I thought that I (Teri, the one who draws the comic) would give you guys a peek at the currant incarnation of "the list". "The list" is a list I keep trying to give Lisa (the writer) of things banned from the comic. Things I've told her she's not allowed to write into the script anymore, because I don't want to draw them. This list has been ever-expanding since the first incarnation of this comic, but this is the present version. Since I've drawn about up to page 50, and you guys just got page 20, it also serves as a little preview of things to come.

The List:
-feet
-hands
-crocodiles
-grass
-things underwater (especially people)
-interior spaces
-any crowd of people numbering more than 4
-walls with fur on them
-buildings made of bone **** (especially this one)
-lava


Stay tuned to watch the list grow, and to see Lisa continue to defy me.

      -Teri

please stand by.

We'll be updating tonight, we're just waiting on comic genesis. 

Thanks for reading!

Lisa

Sorry for the lack of lj update last week- I was sick as a dog, and too heavily medicated to realize that it was Thursday.

So, here would be the comic that comes directly after the last one posted to lj (the comic updates automatically, even when I don't post here)
http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090512.html
I love that first panel. It took me ages, but I think it turned out nicely.

The next page is here: http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090514.html
And I love Tiras rolling his eyes. Man, I was so lazy about backgrounds back when I was drawing these. It gets better folks, I promise. The pages I'm drawing now are background-tastic.

Then comes this page: http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090519.html about which I have little to say.

And, last but not least, this page: http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/ which brings you all up to speed.

Thanks for reading!

Ok! The updates finally went through, and we have new pages for you all.

Here is the most recent page that hasn't been posted here: http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090421.html with one of my favorite gags of all the posted pages so far.

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090423.html is the is the page directly after that.

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090428.html is the one after that. In which Tiras looks creepy, and we see the exterior of the temple for the first time.

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090430.html in which we meet a new character, and see a bit of village life.

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090505.html the page that was supposed to go up Tuesday, but didn't due to technical difficulties regarding our host service. That little crowd of people took me FOREVER to draw.

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/ and today's comic! About which I have mixed feelings.

Thanks for looking!

-Terry

Hi all! you may have noticed that the comic didn't update today. Rest assured that the page IS uploaded, and will update as soon as our host, comicgenesis, stops having issues. Please check back a bit later.

In other news, from now on, were only going to be updating this every Thursday, with links to Tuesdays and Thursdays comics. Posting twice a week just seemed a bit much, don't you think?

I forgot this existed again!

Ok, so, April 14ths comic is right here: godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090414.html which I had a ton of fun drawing. I seriously do love drawing these two.

April 16ths comic is here:  godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090416.html and features a mysterious stranger

And todays comic comic is here: godseeker.comicgenesis.com and has a 2nd to last panel that cracked me up, at least.

And that has you all caught up!

Reminder, we, and the black hat collective will be at Microcon at the MN state fairgrounds this Sunday, with preview pages, prints (mabey), and the Black Hat Collective anthology, "A Day in the Life" for sale.

is posting an announcement here every time there's an update too much? I read a few comics that do it, but I'm not sure if its right for us.

Anyways, page 6 is now posted. I don't like to be self-deprecating, but I have to say I do't like this page much. Of the 30-odd pages so far drawn for Godseeker (yep. were gonna have some nice, regular updates around here for a good long time) this is my least favorite. Serves me right for trying to imitate Fumi Yoshinaga (artist of...among other things...Antique Bakery). But still, the last 3rd of the page is pretty cute, isn't it? I guess that's something.

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com

Welcome, new readers from Anime Detour! Page 5 is up, and viewable here: http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com which means that our auto-update system is working now! huzzah!

Also, a reminder to anyone interested, we, and the other members of the Black Hat Collective will be at
( microcon ) later this month. With a binder full of arty goodness from ourselves and the other Blackhatters. Including some sneak-peek bonus art and a new print. The comics anthology we contributed to- "A Day in the Life" will also be available for sale.

Ok, I doubt many of you noticed, but we actually have been updating the site- I didn't alert you because there were some major problems with relative sizes making said pages pretty much unreadable. However! We've gone back and fixed that, and have continued updating, so there are now 4 (mostly) lovely pages now up! The first and 3rd are my favorites, personally.

http://godseeker.comicgenesis.com/d/20090324.html

Please, go have a look! And feel free to tell us what you think.

Ok, so, for some reason, the update will not take. We have uploaded the page, but haven't managed to make it appear where its supposed to appear.

We'll let you know here as soon as we do!

Attention: Anyone Interested!!!

Godseeker will be resuming updates Tuesday, March 24th, 2009! We are moving from a chapter a month schedule to a Tuesday/Thursday update schedule, at reader request. We have a spiffy new webpage, some exiting plans about to come to fruition, and...

we're starting over. That's right, we got to page 70, and decided to start over. Largely because we felt the story was simply moving way too slowly. So, the script got a facelift, the art got a makeover, and we're pretty happy with the results.

And I will absolutely swear on any book you like that we'll never do it again. Promise. For one thing, I don't think I could stand it.

Anyways, stay tuned!

<3 Terry
