I've reached the limits of what I would really like to do here on Wordpress website-wise, and will be migrating over to weebly.com from here on. I am able to have all the comics on one blog, which should hopefully be easier to manage but in addition I will be able to upload actual comic pages there properly! As for this blog and the original Mecha Wars Blog, well, I have no plans to delete them, and will include links to the new site.<br />
<br />
See you on the other side.<br />

Seriously, the time has seriously flown. I've taken some time off making comics to work out some things, regarding the future of Gesen, Mecha Wars, Aerodura, and any additional future projects. Since pulling down the last incarnation of Gesen I've been trying to make sure the next version is the final version. For some reason, it's not as easy as I thought it would be. I'm having a variety of different ideas which contradict each other, and I don't want there to be alternate continuities of Gesen, because only one would be canon. So basically with Gesen, I still seem to be having quite a major writer's block. I'm making sure that when it relaunches, it will stay true to it's origins, but be fresh and exciting to read. For the time being, <b>Gesen is on hiatus for an indefinite period of time.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
However, while I haven't been getting anywhere with Gesen, I have been getting a lot of ideas regarding the Mecha Wars Main Series. So for the time being, that will be my main focus of comics.<br />
So I apologise to those who were waiting for Gesen. Mecha Wars is not filler material in place of Gesen nor is it meant to substitue Gesen. In fact, at one point it was going to be the spiritual successor to Gesen, but kind of found its own footing as it's own series.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://mechawars.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">You can check out info about Mecha Wars on it's own blog here</a> and you can read the first couple of pages of the first part of the Mecha Wars saga, <a href="http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Dawn_of_the_Mecha/" target="_blank">Dawn of the Mecha</a> now!<br />
<br />
Further updates to Mecha Wars such as when it resumes uploading will be posted to the Mecha Wars blog.Gesenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18401143653440900710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586843160156102225.post-31445625489784443842014-03-07T00:44:00.001+00:002014-03-07T00:44:24.326+00:00March '14Well it's been about 10 years since my last post. Gesen has resumed updating, and Dawn of the Mecha should be launching (again) somepoint soon (like next week most likely).<br />
<br />
I've been thinking about giving DOTM a different update schedule to that of Gesen, like fortnightly updates, but with more pages. I might try that out for a while and see how that works.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, Gesen will still be out 1 page a week, however I might change the day I do that. I'll post any changes here as well as the comic sites.<br />
<br />
Also, what sounds like a better name, Journey of Despair or Journey of Destiny? It's for the second part of the Mecha Wars saga. I'm gonna make this a poll on this blog and the Mecha Wars blog, so please vote (on one blog preferably). It'll be interesting to see what people think, and will probably affect my ultimate decision on a name,<br />

An update!?!?!Hello all. It's been a while since there was an update. Things got a little crazy with Mecha Wars launching and then being pulled down shortly afterwards. There's a <a href="http://mechawars.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/the-last-crusade-name-change.html" target="_blank">post</a> on the <a href="http://mechawars.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Mecha Wars blog</a> regarding why, but the purpose of this post is to explain the delay of Gesen and Mecha Wars. I 've been facing several problems regarding my computer and am looking into getting a new one hopefully soon. Because of this all my comics are on hiatus for the rest of 2013. I'm sorry guys, but I'll be back.Gesenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18401143653440900710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586843160156102225.post-41631616597387817272013-10-26T17:44:00.002+01:002013-10-26T17:44:22.552+01:00November 2013<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
Drunkduck or The Duck Webcomics is back, and likewise Gesen is up to date on the archives there. It will be updating on fridays simultaneously with ComicDish.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Gesen hasn't been updated for the last couple of weeks and I apologize for this, and reveal why. </div>
<div>
Next week Mecha Wars: The Last Crusade is finally beginning. I've been working on it for some time, working out the story and characters, and the time has come to finally begin to work on Mecha Wars. So as of Friday 1st November, you will be able to read <i>The Last Crusade.</i> At the moment it's only going to be on The Duck where it will be known as "The Last Crusade", but it may find it's way to other sites in time. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Mecha Wars and Gesen will both be updating at 1 page a week after next week.</div>

Well, theres only three pages up right now, so it's not like i've been holding out or anything. At the moment Drunkduck is down, so you can only read it on <a href="http://gesen.comicdish.com/" target="_blank">Comicdish</a> at the moment. I'll make a post when DrunkDuck is back online, because Gesen will continue as soon as the duck returns.<br />

It's been a while since there's been any news on Mecha Wars, except the fact that it's been delayed and will <i>probably </i>begin once Gesen has finished. Well, as well as the manga version, a prose version of the story is being worked on, and chapters of that will be released as they are completed. Right now I'm finalizing the main plot elements, and have started working on of <i>The Last Mecha - </i>the manga and the prose.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I'm seriously considering having Mecha Wars run simultaneously with Gesen. Of course, this will probably mean that Gesen's updating will be reduced. If that's the case, Mecha Wars could be launching in the next few months. Anyway, it's not like it's going to help pass the time or anything, but here's the image that will be used for the first chapter.<br />

This isn't the first time the Gesen logo has been changed, in fact (if you include before I put Gesen online) this is the third time the logo has changed, not counting redesigning the same image.<br />

And now we reach the present. As you can see, Maya's sword is no longer featured in the logo. This was the main aspect of the logo that needed to be changed, because the sword was often cut off when used in banners. I considered having the sword placed horizontally and the text engraved on the sword, but when it came to designing it it wasn't working. I knew that I wanted some sort of links to the characters, and so the S has an electrical font to represent <span style="background-color: black; color: white;">[SPOILER]</span><span style="background-color: white;">'s use of electricity, and the N is on fire to represent the kid in the black suit's use of fire power.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">This logo will be used in artwork produced from now on, and will be used in chapter covers from Chapter 7 onwards.</span><br />

Only things are a bit different since we last saw them in Chapter 4... both the tree (the Burgundy Giant) and the Izoku Clan. Check out this weeks update to see how!<br />

So I got to thinking, who else should be included in the Battle Royale?<br />
<br />
Just a note, this list includes characters from games I've played, and characters I think could actually be included in All Stars, and it's purely opinion based, so don't get upset when you don't see someone you want in All Stars.<br />
<br />
<b>10. Chell (Portal)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/40/Chell.png/220px-Chell.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/40/Chell.png/220px-Chell.png" width="130" /></a>Admittedly probably the least likely on this list to make it into All Stars (which is why she's tenth), but imagine being able to place portals on parts of th stage and using them to summon turrets or companion cubes or something! I just think it would be pretty cool for Chell to be in All Stars. She could even have Wheatley or GLaDOS with her to speak on her behalf or even assist in super attacks.<br />

<b>9. A Patapon (Patapon)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I mean, they already make an appearance in the Hades stage, why not be a playable character? A Patapon would be more suitable than say, a loco roco anyway. And I'm not talking about having Yumipon, Tatepon, Yaripon and the other-pons as separate character, I mean like having one Patapon who's Square, Triangle and Circle all use moves based on different Patapon types. It could happen!<br />

<b>8. Alister Azimuth (Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time</b><br />

It would be Ratchet, but purely melee based attacks. And there's plenty of moves he does in ACiT to give him an entire moveset. I think depending on how much DLC there is, we're going to see franchises having more than one representative, and I don't think anyone deserves to be in All Stars from the Ratchet and Clank universe more so than Alister Azimuth. Maybe Talwyn Apogee, but she'd be almost entirely projectile based I would imagine. We don't need Qwark of Neffy as playable characters, they're fine as minions. AND IN CERTAIN STAGES!<br />

<b>7. Hero (Dragon Quest VIII: The Journey of the Cursed King)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Dragon Quest 8 was epic. The hero of Dragon Quest 8 (whom had to be named by the player) was epic. If any Sqaure-Enix character is included in All Stars, this guy is the guy to include. He can use magic, swords, boomerangs, spears and or his fists in a fight. And he can go Super Saiyan!! ...Well, not exactly super saiyan, but he can boost his tension (which boosts attack power) by up to 100. Did I also mention he can tranform into a bird (using a special item) and summon a Sabrecat?!<br />
<br />

<b>6. Raven (Gravity Rush)</b><br />
<a href="http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120903210452/gravityrush/images/2/22/Gravitydaze02.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120903210452/gravityrush/images/2/22/Gravitydaze02.png" width="144" /></a><b><br /></b><br />
<a href="http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/1/10353/2010114-257px_victor_sullivan_render_large.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/1/10353/2010114-257px_victor_sullivan_render_large.png" width="129" /></a>Of the 22 playable characters in All Stars, only 3 of them are female, one of which was part of the recently added DLC. All Stars need more female playable characters, and who better that Kat's rival(?), Raven? Admittedly she has powers similar to Kat, and the last thing we want is another two characters with half-identical movesets *coughcoleevilcole*, but then Kat never uses her hands to attack, so i'm sure they could do <i>something</i> with that to start. This also ties in with what I was saying about multiple characters from the same franchise. Speaking of that...<br />
<br />
<b>5. Victor Sullivan (Uncharted)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I know he (like Raven) is already in All Stars as a minion, and he does feature in Drakes story (not that that accounts for much) but it's Sully! Nathan Drake's mentor and oldest friend! You might say that Sully would probably handle similarly to Drake, but there are subtle differences between them. While Sully is significantly older than Drake (meaning drake should be more agile and fit), Sully has a <b>plane. </b>And they don't necesarily need to use the same guns. He could spawn a riot shield, similar to how Sir Daniel does. C'mon, you know if anyone else from Uncharted made it into All Stars, it should be Sully.<br />

Welkin or Alicia (Valkyria Chronicles)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Valkyria Chronicles on the PS3 and PSP were good games. So why weren't any characters in All Stars?! Well, the time for redemption has come. If anyone, I think one of the two main characters of the first game should be in All Stars. Naturally you might automatically say Welkin, as he's the protagonist and all, but he spent the majority of the beginning of the game inside the Edelweiss Tank, so therefore, Alicia, a scout could be a substitute, and would increase the game's female population.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Knight and Baby (Guardian's Crusade)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<a href="http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2137/guard2d.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="197" src="http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2137/guard2d.png" width="320" /></a>If you've never played Guardian's Crusade (or Knight and Baby as it's known in Japan) it's a pretty awesome RPG for the PS1, where you, the Knight were tasked with returning a weird creture known as Baby to it's mother. Throughout the game you can develop a friendship with baby, and a strong relationship is key to getting through the game. One of my favourite aspects of the game, however, besides the fact that baby could transform, was that you could summon living toys (Toy Story?) to aid you in battle. It was awesome, and these guys would fit perfectly in All Stars with the help of their living toys.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Wander (Shadow of the Colossus)</b><br />
<a href="https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSVT3utt1Qdx8sUVa2aeRW_CRAItmIWNduCU5Gc_ClGVhmQaqyC" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" class="rg_i" data-src="https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSVT3utt1Qdx8sUVa2aeRW_CRAItmIWNduCU5Gc_ClGVhmQaqyC" data-sz="f" name="OhuLRugfZ64_7M:" src="https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSVT3utt1Qdx8sUVa2aeRW_CRAItmIWNduCU5Gc_ClGVhmQaqyC" style="height: 188px; margin-top: 0px; width: 268px;" /></a><b><br /></b>
Besides the fact that he picks fights with nothing but massive Colossi, and the fact that he looks like a girl, I would love to be able to hear Wander shout "AGGRO!!" in the middle of an All Stars match. Seriously though, this epic PS2 game needs some sort of inclusion in All Stars, and the best way to do that would be to have Wander made playable. I don't know about his minion though, I think Aggro would look weird and some of those Colossi are not exactly who I'd want cheering me on.<br />
<br />
<b>1. Monica or Max (Dark Chronicle)</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<a href="http://www.cosplayisland.co.uk/files/costumes/2351/52327/dark%20chronicle%20max%20et%20monica.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.cosplayisland.co.uk/files/costumes/2351/52327/dark%20chronicle%20max%20et%20monica.jpg" width="320" /></a>Another PS2<b> exclusive </b>classic that got no acknowledgement from All Stars is Dark Chronicle. While I'd be happy if either Max or Monica get in All Stars, I'm more inclined for Monica to get in rather than Max. I mean, we've already got a character who uses a combination of a wrench and guns, and has a robotic assistant, and I know I've already mentioned this at least twice before, the game needs more female playable characters and even though she uses a sword (which personally I don't see anything wrong with having several different swordsmen and women) she could always use the georama system as attacks, or her fire magic or even time travel...somehow. Max could always help out for a super attack or as a minion.<br />

At the moment this is only being uploaded to the <a href="http://drunkduck.com/gesen" target="_blank">DrunkDuck mirror</a> as Mangabullet is still down, and ComicDish is still quite behind.<br />
<br />
From chapter 6 onward, Gesen and Asuna's appearances will be slightly different due to a slight change in design so that they appear to be their age of 15 (originally they were supposed to be 12). Past pages will NOT be modified to reflect this, I really don't want to slow down the progression of Gesen any more.<br />

<br />
How many hours have I animated this week?<br />
<br />
None.<br />
<br />
What did I accomplish this week?<br />
<br />
Managed to put together a portfolio and got a conditional offer for the HNC my college is running.<br />
In terms of animation, nothing.<br />
<br />
What did I learn this week?<br />
<br />
I've learned to believe in myself a bit more. There isn't anything I can't do if I put my mind to it.<br />
<br />
What stopped me from doing more?<br />
<br />
Sickness and Portfolio production.<br />
<br />
What will I do to ensure it never happens again?<br />
<br />
I can't guarantee I won't get sick again, but I've got my portfolio out of the way.<br />
Also, it might be good to do a little extra when I can.Gesenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18401143653440900710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586843160156102225.post-89050215065047173042013-02-01T23:26:00.001+00:002013-02-04T21:38:28.805+00:00(UPDATE) Welcome to the new age!From here on, Gesen and Asuna have been redesigned.

Other than that they're obviously physically more developed, slightly taller and their hair is spikier. Asuna's hair is also a bit longer, something which it seems nay have been influenced by a recent poll.</div>

You'll find out on Friday.Gesenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18401143653440900710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586843160156102225.post-24965314971513688832013-01-24T22:57:00.001+00:002013-01-24T22:57:42.889+00:00Gesen and Asuna are going to be redesigned...older?!It has been nearly eight years since I initially started drawing Gesen. A lot of things were different when I first started, a lot of strong influences back then I no longer use, and I find myself being influenced by many different things.<br />
<br />
One of the things I thought was cool at the time was having the main characters aged 12. It was more or less my age at the time, but, as the years have gone by, there are themes in Gesen I want to explore, which, admittedly, would be quite awkward seeing little kids go through.<br />
<br />
I am in the process of redesigning Gesen and Asuna (they're the only 12 year olds left in the series) and they will now be aged 15. What I will be doing is redrawing already existing panels pages in which they appear, in other words, this is NOT another reboot. The story and their personalities will not be changing, only their age, and their appearance slightly.<br />
<br />
Once chapter 5 is complete, there will be a hiatus in which chapters 2, 3 and 4 will be modified, and in some instances, some things may be rewritten slightly. It won't be anything major, but I will post here what changes will be made.<br />
<br />
Of course, this will probably mean a lot of the artwork I've done will be innacurate... I'm not sure how I'm going to handle that yet.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately this also means that my other series, Mecha Wars will be delayed for a lot longer. I have been considering setting it in the same universe as that of Gesen, meaning that Gesen will have to have been finished anyways before i can begin it. I want to put most of my effort into Gesen, and I don't want Mecha Wars to suffer because of this, so it won't be starting for a while. This also probably means the blog will be pulled down, if I can pull it down temporarily. <br />
<br />
Hopefully, Chapter 5 should be ending with next weeks update.<br />

<br />
All you need to do is tick yes or no, based on whether or not you believe she should let her hair get any longer.<br />
<br />
Wait a minute... who is Asuna?!<br />
<br />
If you've read chapter 4 of Gesen, you will have seen her already, though she has not yet revealed her name. My mistake entirely. I was going to edit the question to link to a picture of Asuna, but because the poll has already received votes (thanks for voting, by the way!) I can't edit it directly. Makes sense, so this post will hopefully remedy the situation here.<br />

I have been told a couple of times that she looks like a boy. In an attempt to prevent more confusion I am considering a number of ways to alter her appearance to give her more femininity, such as increasing the length of her hair. I won't just randomly slap it into the next chapter she's in though, I would make sure to write it into the story properly.<br />
<br />
Her hair here (<-) is how it is currently.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here is how her hair would be at a more medium-sized length<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
If she decided to grow her hair very long it would probably look something like this.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
All things considered, these aren't even the only hairstyles she could have. For now, however if you want Asuna's hair to say how it is, click "No" on the poll to the left, if you think she'd look better with longer hair (either one of the bottom two pictures) click "Yes"<br />
<br />
Depending on results, I may have to hold additional polls to see what people think.<br />
<br />
This poll closes at the <b>end of the month.</b><br />

There were a number of things that hindered progress, at several points I considered taking down the page that was already online and starting chapter 5 again, but I was able to overcome writers block once again.<br />
<br />
Also, the Chapter 4 Patches are still coming. I'm just making sure everything that could be improved is being improved, so the intensity of the patches will vary on pages.<br />
<br />
Chapter 2 is also going to be patched from page 8 onwards. I really wanted to change the way the pages looked. The backgrounds are likely to stay the same, but characters are going to have outlines. This is being done to make sure the archive quality is fairly consistent.<br />
<br />
In other news, I have started a blog for my upcoming sci-fi comic, <a href="http://mechawars.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Mecha Wars</a>! There isn't much on the blog just yet, but content will be added soon, and the comic will hopefully be beginning soon too!<br />
<br />
Also, the characters page has been updated. For the characters who are already on there, updates where necessary have been made, and one new character has been added.<br />

<br />
As a team we changed the way we split up the workload in order to work more efficiently. Unfortunately, we were unable to complete the animation on time due to a number of reasons. We weren't motivated enough, we weren't disciplined enough. We didn't have the most efficient plan from the start, and I think this hindered progress. Despite all that has happened, I believe, without a doubt, that we could have completed the project on time. I intend to complete this, even if I'm doing it on my own.<br />
<br />
How many hours have you animated this week?<br />
<br />
Nowhere near enough<br />
<br />
What did I accomplish this week?<br />
<br />
Partially completed a few scenes. I intend to collect the other pieces of animaion my team mates completed and finish this project.<br />
<br />
What did you learn this week?<br />
<br />
I've learned a lot about team work. A lot.<br />
<br />
What stopped me from doing more?<br />
<br />
That infernal Playstation 3 and PS Vita<br />
<br />
What will you do to make sure it never happens again?<br />
<br />

I'm doing what I can, but there may not be any new pages for the next couple of weeks.<br />

Today sees the dawn of Gesen Chapter 5. But that's not all that's coming tomorrow. <b>(Chapter 4 Spoilers)</b><br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Remember how chapter 2 ended and how chapter 3 began? There was a lapse from Gesen attempting to go Mach 1 to Gesen finding himself in a cave, and now that he's returned to Tokan only to find his teacher dead, it's likely there's a bit of confusion based on what we missed in the said time lapse. Chapter 5 will be answering those questions promptly.<br />

It has an awesome character creation mode (which was the main reason why I got it) and I immediately began making Gesen characters on Soul V, so i'll be posting the custom characters here for a while and maybe have some sort of comparison or something. Some characters I've made are yet to make their appearance in Gesen, so I'll only upload characters who've already debuted in the comic.<br />
<br />
Try and guess this week's bunch!<br />

Alright, to be fair, half of the characters here are yet to be named, and one character hasn't officially appeared yet, but what did you think? Did they even slightly resemble their comic counterparts?<br />
There'll be more coming soon!<br />

<br />
I try to make more efficient use of my time. When I am at college, I do things that I cannot do at home, and vice-versa.<br />
<br />
How many hours have you animated this week?<br />
<br />
6 hours<br />
<br />
What did I accomplish this week?<br />
<br />
I am working on animating a bear in flash, and lip-syncing in Maya.<br />
I also got the oppourtunity to watch <em>Persepolis </em>in the cinema.<br />
<br />
What did you learn this week?<br />
<br />
Watching <em>Persepolis</em> showed me various things that can be done in 2D and with limited colour.<br />
<br />
What stopped me from doing more?<br />
<br />
I, myself stopped myself.<br />
<br />
What will you do to make sure it never happens again?<br />
<br />
I refuse to let it happen again.Gesenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18401143653440900710noreply@blogger.com0
