Yesterday was hourly comic day! Last year was pretty straight forward (falling on a Sunday) which was good for me, being my first attempt.
This year I was thrown in head first, being a work day… Juggling my day job and my comics isn’t out of the ordinary by any means; but drawing a new panel EVERY HOUR, combined with running the post office and shop is a tad more complicated, yet somehow refreshing! You can read my attempt here! |
New Years day morning brought no hangover this year, but instead… Font shopping. I took advantage of Comicraft’s 24 hour sale where all fonts prices plummeted to an affordable $20.10!
Picked up a nice slender number I thought may come in useful for those teeny speech balloons – goes by the name of ‘CREDIT CRUNCH’ also bought ‘BIFFBAMBOOM’ which I believe speaks for itself… Along with ‘SHOUTOUT’ for those balloons which just need that extra bit of volume.
Look out for them in this years strips!
Currently working my way through all the books I bought at this years con… Highlights so far being Monsieur Cadwell’s Glastonbury postcard book, Chloe Noonan #2 (Marc Ellerby) and Greasy Joe (M. D. Penman)
We also had BIG FUN on the train finding things in ‘Intricate Dwellings’ by Philippa Rice (you can buy it here)
I’m sure there are some more gems in here, just need to find the time to READ THEM ALL!

This week Ellerbisms turned 200! And so Marc has opened his site to guest art and comics for the week! Monday saw tremendous work from Lizz Lunney, Emma Vieceli, and Matthew Sheret.
Today, work from John Allison, Cowface, and myself! Looking forward to the rest of the week. I’m sure it’s been said many a time already, but here’s to the next 200 Marc! |
Site was down yesterday due to exceeding it’s bandwidth… meaning I’m getting more internet Love!
It is indeed back online now (as you can see) and will have a new strip up before the week is out. In other news, currently getting some quotes on a printed volume of The Ste-Regular! Stay tooned.
Added a page for my other comics! Only a couple on there at the moment. The comic I drew for Hourly Comic Day can be found over there if you missed it first time round. Had a couple of chaotic weekends recently meaning only being able to update once a week, hopefully get it back to twice a week from Monday.
Decided to change the name of the webcomic. The strips seemed to focus on me and Criss more so than the village. Welcome to the Ste-Regular. Any thoughts?

Hourly comic day is almost upon us. And this year it lands on a Sunday! I’d heard about 24 hour comic day via Scott McClouds books (can’t remember which one…) which sounds a bit too much like hard work. I think I’ll wait until I’ve built up my comic-ing stamina before attempting that challenge. The Hourly comic however is new to me, and sounds more feasable. Follow the link and join in! Or you can read about other people’s Sundays through their comics in the forum: |
