Time sure flies, doesn’t it? Well for me it does anyway.
Comic-Con certainly doesn’t seem like it was two months ago already, but I guess it has been. Followers of SDA and NPI probably think our comics both died after Comic-Con or something, which is not the case, I assure you. Plette’s been an incredibly busy guy with his schoolwork, he does still intend to update as often as he can, but right now school is the priority. He has almost no freetime during the week, and on his weekends away from art class I imagine the last thing he wants to do is more art. My excuse for not updating these past two months is a bit more flimsy.
Really there’s a couple reasons, the first is that I just haven’t had any solid ideas for NPI in a long time. Usually I have vague ideas, or something will hit me during the week, but that just hasn’t really happened since Comic-Con. The second is that I have other projects I want to commit time to now. Believe it or not, from concept to completion, even simple NPI comics usually take about 4 hours to make. Not a lot when you look at time tables of other comics, but right now that’s 4 hours I could be using on other endeavors that I’m frankly much more interested in for the time being.
One big thing is that I’m finally taking the time to establish a home for my music on the internet, and so far it’s going very well. I’m also trying to flesh out the story and art for a potential new flash series I may be doing (we’ll see), and pretty soon here I’m going to be applying for a bunch of animation internships across the country.
So yeah I’ve been working on things, just not this thing. I will try to stay more on top of NPI though now, I wont say when I’ll try to post my next update by, because I would hate to just keep setting deadlines and then not meet them, I’ll just be vague and tell you to keep an eye out. Shot-Down Again and No Pun Intended aren’t dead, we’re just doing other things right now.
