Look! More fan art! And it's all absolutely lovely as usual. Really, what else could I expect? For example, this picture of Emmeline, painted in Photoshop CS2 by Naomi from Australia:

And this series of Seven Skary Sins by Ashley from Canada:

Seven Skary Sins - Wrath, from Ashley (age 23), Canada

Seven Skary Sins - Sloth, from Ashley (age 23), Canada

Seven Skary Sins - Pride, from Ashley (age 23), Canada

Seven Skary Sins - Luxury, from Ashley (age 23), Canada

Seven Skary Sins - Greed, from Ashley (age 23), Canada

Seven Skary Sins - Gluttony, from Ashley (age 23), Canada

Seven Skary Sins - Envy, from Ashley (age 23), Canada

And much more over on the fan art page!

I'm in the middle of a new illustration that I can't wait to show you - that should be up by this weekend - and I'm still pondering how the Death and Elsie saga should end. I've also finished a rough sketch of War #3, so expect that soon!

War #2: How It Came To This

Next episode: Dirty Floors

(Previously)

This will be the last War for October. I'll finish #3 in November, after which I can hopefully start updating it a little more regularly!

Coming up next on Skary.net, that collage I promised! Hooray!

Wow! The response to War #1 has been very positive. I must say I'm surprised you didn't all drag me off to the stocks after what happened in the first episode, but then I guess you wouldn't know how she got into that mess nor what happens after, would you? See, I planned it that way. Always thinking, that's me. Episode #2 is mostly penciled and ready for redrawing/coloring. I'd like to say it will be up next week, but don't take that to the market. Things have been a bit crazy around here with other projects.

Speaking of other projects, did you see? Well, did you? There's a new Downloads page! At the moment, it simply has a few Twitter backgrounds for your use, but there will be more downloads in the near future. As far as those Twitter backgrounds go, I've included the most requested characters for now. Are there any others you'd like to see?

In other news, the first place winner of Casilda's Hat Contest has received her hat. And look! She's taken pictures!

I think it works for her, don't you? Rena is also a model for House of Pomegranates, which I encourage everyone to check out.

In case you thought I'd forgotten, I'm still working on an animated short, and as soon as I can figure out how, there will be close captioning of some sort on the YouTube videos for the hard of hearing. I'm also putting that collage together. I've received a lot of wonderful photos, but I can definitely use more. Have you seen anything that reminded you of Skary? Send photos! There's no deadline, and the collage will be updated as long as I continue to receive pictures.

Okay, all right and what-have-you. That's the news. How about a few emails, eh? (more...)

The very first episode of Ida's War is finally ready for human consumption! All future episodes will be in short segments like this until the story is complete. And no matter how nicely you ask me, no - I won't tell you what's going to happen before another one's up (because I'm not telling) or even when the next one will be up (because I probably don't know). So, here it is. I hope you like it. (Note, if you're new to Skary, this will make a lot more sense to you if you've seen Ida's Luck.)

War #1: Do Not Go Quietly

Next episode: How It Came To This

Subscribe to the RSS feed for this comic.

And, gosh, I hope you're following me on Twitter.

(Okay, and Facebook.)

My next blog post will include the current state of the By Jove! It's Skary! collage, some answers to some emails, and other nifty things. After I've had a break and maybe a sandwich, that is.

I've been receiving lots of really great images for the By Jove! It's Skary! collage (keep them coming!), but I just had to call attention to this one. It's pretty much the greatest thing I've ever seen. This photo comes from Auburn who says: "I took this picture outside my friend's Seventh Day Adventist church. The fact that it was such a creepy image outside of a church...I just had to take it."

From Auburn

Thanks, Auburn!

In other news, the first episode of War should be up next weekend. (Remember now, it's a webcomic and not an animation.) I can't make any promises as to a regular update schedule, but I can say that this will be updated with some regularity and will continue until the tale is told. I promise lots of blood and guts and a good story while I'm at it, so get your popcorn ready and make yourselves comfortable.

It's 1947. Mankind is still recovering from its second world war. It's the perfect time for Something Terrible.

A new webcomic coming soon.
