Hi Kids!
One more hour to go and another 24 Hour Comic Day will be “In the can”, as they say.
We bade farewell to Julie.
The big news of this hour is that Aliina has finished, maintaining her perfect record for the 7th year in a row. She holds the 7000 BC record for the most finishes, a record she will probably maintain, since nobody in 7000 BC has ever done that.
Here’s her comic “MUSES”. It’s a bit risque’…
Aside from that, not a lot going on…
One more hour to go.
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
Well, not much happening because most everybody has either left or is finished.
We do have Jeff, Garrad, and Aliina, still working so here’s their work.
And Ben did a sketch card of a Stormtrooper.
It’s almost over,
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
Daybreak over 24 Hour Comic Day.
You know today, Sunday, October 6, 2013, marks the second day of the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, the most photographed annual event in the world! Hundreds of hot air balloons and balloonists (and tourists, thank God) converge on our little town every year and put on quite a show.
Here’s another photograph, albeit not a very good one because we are sort of far away here at Kaboom Test Labs West.
While I was out celebrating the dawn, Zach finished his comic and he chose the Twin Suns gift certificate.
And that’s all for HOUR 20.
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
Boy, do I feel refreshed after that nap!
This is what happened while I slept:
Got another update from Mike, Jeff, and Nathan at the previously undisclosed location.
Looks kinda sinister, don’t it?
And here on the home front, some folks sleep, and some folks don’t.
Of those that don’t, Ben gets back to basics with pencil and paper.
Night falls on Jesse’s story.
Sarah continues her tale of love and benevolent werewolves.
John continues his intricate line work in the “Dungeons of Space”.
Aliina presses like she always does.
AND THIS JUST IN… SARAH’S DONE!!! She’s the first, so in the long standing tradition of 7000 BC’s 24 Hours From Q-Town, she wins the prize of her choice. She chooses a familiar looking Ben Girven original t-shirt!
While the rest of the room toils on…
And Jeff’s Redneck Zombies and Cat continue their tribulations.
Back in a minute or so…
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
I might just take a nap for a bit…
Zzzzzzzzzz…
Good morning!
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
Well past the halfway point, and folks are still plugging away…
John and Austin are collaborating.
Here’s Jeff’s PART TWO: Moonlit Showdown w/Redneck Zombies
And then there’s Talon’s Benjamin Franklin robot (note his face is stitched on) with the Gatling gun arm…
Can’t wait to see what that’s all about… Found this interesting Ben Franklin quote that might just apply: “Three can keep a secret, if two of them are dead”.
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
So this happened…
At around midnight, this superhero whose mild mannered alter ego is Avory Gonzales, swooped in and bestowed this bounty of Krispy Kreme Wonder upon us and vanished before I could recover enough to snap his picture. Oddly enough, I have been thinking about Krispy Kremes (warm Krispy Kremes, which these were) for a couple of weeks now but holding fast, and then this happens. Let me tell you, they were delicious!
And from our undisclosed location:
I’m curious about “Coconut vs Soap”, aren’t you?
Amanda is getting all arty on us, using watercolors and stuff…
That’s a fabric book she’s working in. Very fancy…
And on the latest sweep of the room:
I have to say I am impressed by all the different styles and techniques folks are using, aren’t you?
And it’s gotten so quiet…
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
Although we’ve lost a few folks and things have slowed from the earlier frenetic pace, the creativity continues to flow as many are closer to finishing.
While Riddick guards the entrance to the shop and watches over the bathroom door…
As the Witching Hour closes upon us…
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
Hard to believe it’s been 10 hours, eh? Of course, to you it hasn’t been any time at all because the 24 Hour Comic Day website has been down since yesterday. Nonetheless, I am diligently posting away so that when the site does come back up, you’ll be able to read this and maybe feel a part of the experience that is 24 Hour Comic Day.
So we had another round of raffle drawings and these folks (and I) won some cool stuff.
Julie won this Ben Girven original t-shirt depicting Black Widow and Hawkeye as Lucy and Linus.
John, Talon, and I won a $10 Lobo Anime and Comics gift certificate.
While Rosie won an All the Growing Things trade paperback from Typod Mary http://typodmary.com/ and graciously accepted Brian’s $10 Lobo Anime and Comics gift certificate, as he was out of the room at the time.
While Mike, Nathan, and Jeff toil away at their projects at our satellite facility, the previously undisclosed location.
And so it goes…
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
Hi Kids!
So as I promised, more stuff happened–mainly PIZZA! Ben left awhile back and returned with 9 pizzas! We feasted… And I didn’t get any pictures, dang!
At and that previously undisclosed location…
I made another round on the floor and…
Be Well,
Your pal,
Chuck
