"The Voice of Riesen" Episode I



     Well there you have it. This was my first attempt at creating my own webcomic. I am super excited to be presenting this to you, and it indicates a new achievement in my professional career. I wish I was a better artist, but recently I felt motivated to draw something; or at least try to better myself in my craft. I really hope that if you enjoyed this tiny bit that you would share it and let me know what your thought. These two characters, Valen and Riesen are both very dear to me; they are also the stars of my first story I began writing last year entitled "Requiem;" and although that story is not for the faint of heart, I really wanted to find a way to introduce these characters to the public. I would assume that if you are on this page, some part of you was expecting to see something 'comic' related, and I hope this satisfy you for now. Each one of these pages took me almost an hour to draw; and then there were the hoops I had to jump through to create the dialogue, the bubbles, the page lineup... Oh yes, I have new found respect for those who do this for a living. With time, and the proper funds, I hope to purchase the tools necessary to create much more polished, and hopefully less strenuous, works. Just remember that if you 'really' enjoy my work, please show your support by commenting, liking, sharing, or donating! Till next time.

Happy Six Month Anniversary!


     Hard to believe its been six months so far. As a thank you I wanted to present for the first time our new mascots, Valen and Riesen. You may remember these two from my first original story "Requiem." These two have been with me along the way and I hope they will continue to inspire. (I'm not a great artist but I am getting better.) If you haven't read it yet, the first 5 chapters of "Requiem" can be read right here on my blog. Again, thank you all for your support as I get closer to making my dreams a reality.
