FTLY/Wyrd Romance Reboot: Teaser pinups.

Hi there. *waves*

Maria here. So, I had this webcomic a long time ago called For the Love of Yaoi. It's actually sort of how I wound up in the BHC. You can read the (decade old) archives over here (try not to sneeze from all the dust).

As several of the BHC members already know, I am working on a new and improved version of this webcomic, currently under the working title of Wyrd Romance (unless I come up with something better). Scripts for chapters 1-4 are written and in process of editing. Chapters 5-10 are in outline format. New character designs are happening. I intend to have pages drawn starting in January, and the comic should go live online by May 2012.

Until then, I'm working ridiculous 10 hour shifts, 6 days a week, at my current temp job. So all I have to show for myself right now are a couple of pinups. You can see them here at my Tumblr:

Black and white inked illustrations (Wyrd Romance main characters, as well as a sneak peek at some art I did for one of the other upcoming BHC projects).


A colored version of the Tristyn pinup.


Feel free to follow me on Tumblr for more arts. I'll probably create a dedicated Wyrd Romance Tumblr/Facebook/Twitter account eventually, but for now you can see some of my arts (and random fandom madness) on my personal account.

Cheers, and thanks for looking!

Godseeker relaunch

Hello, all

Once again, a Black Hat artist emerges from the depths to declare that this blog needs more action. So, in honour of the imminent relaunch of Lisa's and My webcomic, Godseeker, (pending website refurbishing) I thought I'd post a color test I did just before my computer broke down.

I wanted to keep the pallet simple and a bit muted, without letting it get dull or melancholy. I don't know that I quite hit the nail on the head, but I do seem to be making progress. I think browsing around colourlovers.com helped quite a bit. Comments and crit welcome. Full size version on my deviantart: http://goldfishhead.deviantart.com/

Fellow members, don't forget to update!
