Christmas is fast approaching fellas. Hope you all got your shopping done, cuz delivery services are getting a bit clogged with orders. In the meantime, I have a few updates to share.

Sweet Sixteen Comic:

On Monday of this week, I uploaded my Sweet Sixteen Comic entry of Sue n' Clark. Its taken me 2-3 months to create it, so all feedback I received has been greatly appreciated. If you missed it, you can read my entry below.

READ HERE!!!

Sue n' Clark - Chapter 1:

Chapter 1 has been the longest project I've ever worked on. As of right now, the contracted cleanup artist is beginning to finish up work for the new year. Once that is done, I can begin the digital linework. I'm still debating if I want Chapter 1 to be in full color. Part of me feels like that would elevate its quality. But bare in mind, that could mean an extra month and a half of work. Regardless, The Sweet Sixteen Contest has given me a good model for an efficient work flow.

A release date has not been announced at this given time. But I assure you, Chapter 1 WILL be released in 2024. I will make an official announcement when a release date is in order. I will also try to tease a few pages in the meantime.

Secret Santa 2023:

Now that my work on the Sweet Sixteen Contest is complete, I can begin working on my Secret Santa. I took the week off to recoup and get my energy back. I'll be looking to knock this out during the weekend.

I can't exactly say WHO or WHAT my Secret Santa is. That would ruin the surprise. But I will upload it to NG on Christmas Day.

New Sona in the Works:

As of now, I have a design ready for my new Sona. All of that will be released in early January. Right now I'm focused on my Secret Santa, so I can't really tease any details on that.

My Sweet Sixteen Comic just dropped!

READ HERE!!!

On December 11th (12:00PM EST), I will be dropping a 16 page entry of Sue n' Clark for the Newgrounds "Sweet 16 Comic Contest". This has been 3 months in the making. I hope you all enjoy it when it finally drops on Monday.

Tis the season to be jolly (and rushing to finish your webcomic). As the year is coming to a close, I figured you all should know about what I've been up to this past November.

Sweet Sixteen Comic:

God we are so close (and yet so far) to getting this shit done. I have around 11-12 of the pages completed as of now. In total I have about 5-4 pages left to complete. I was hoping to add color, but as the deadline looms near, I'm going to have to call that idea off. I'm still hoping I can get a cover done before the final day of submission. Either way, I'm kind of in a hurry as it where.

New Profile Sona in the Works:

As I've previously stated, I will be revamping my profile and banner. Right now I'm drafting ideas for a new sona. I plan to have that all fully released in early January.

Secret Santa 2023:

Yeah, I couldn't help myself. I'm currently registered for the Secret Santa of 2023. Thankfully the person I have has an OC I can actually work with for a change. I'll probably start work on that after December 11th.

We're half way through November, and I've been on the grind, trying to get webcomic stuff done. We makin' good progress fam. But before I get to into it, I got something to share...

I received "User of the Day" today:

Yeah, this was not on my bucket list of things to happen. Don't know what exactly I did to earn it. But hey, I'll take it. It gives me bragging rights at the very least.

Alright, now for the main announcements...

Sweet Sixteen Comic:

As of today, I have 7 pages of lineart done, as well as partial completion of 2 other pages. This means I am nearly halfway done with my Sweet Sixteen Entry. Let's hope all goes well until that big due date (December 11th).

I will also be adding Cover Art to my entry, as the contest rules state "it won't count as a page". The cover will be in full color of course.

However, I'm not sure if the rest of the pages will be in color. I played around with the idea of having full color, but that will be contingent on whether I can complete the pages before the end of November. We'll just have to wait and see.

I could tease some of my pages, but honestly, I think it would be best to keep things a surprise.

New Profile Sona Coming Soon:

As stated in the previous post, I will be revamping my entire profile pic and banner for next year. This means a brand new sona is currently in development. I will tease more in mid-late December.

The new sona will be fully revealed on January 7th of next year. Look forward to that!

Hope you all had a nice Halloween.

This is my official update heading into November. Got a few goodies to cover, so lets get into it.

Sweet Sixteen Comic Contest:

With the end of October, comes the beginning of November. And for me, more progress done on my entry for The Sweet Sixteen Comic Contest. With hard work and a bit of luck, I was able to draft all 16 pages in my sketch book. The next step for November will be getting all 16 pages into digital form. This will require me to do digital line-art and shading for all the pages. I'm not yet sure if I can get the pages done in color. We'll have to play that step by ear. In the meantime, here are a few excerpts from my 16 pages.

There is one caveat. Some of the pages are more fleshed out than others. There are a lot of pages that will still require edits and fixes. A large chunk of that will be done digitally. I'm looking to make this next phase a bit more spontaneous. That way I'll be able to complete the entry in time for the deadline (December the 11th).

New Persona and Profile Pic in the Works (Early January 2024):

Anyone that's been following me for long enough knows of my old "Mister Fatso" days. Last year I changed my username to "EugeneDoesArt" which I felt was better for my overall outlook. Well this year I've been coming up with some ideas for a new profile pic that is radically different from the old one. The only problem was finding a time to make and submit this new profile pic. I've decided to submit a new Profile Pic and Refsheet for my new look in Early January of next year. So look forward to that.

Sue n' Clark:

Chapter 1's sketches have been complete as of the end of September. The cleanup process by my contracted artist is still ongoing. In the meantime I will try to draft some quick thumbnails for what Chapter 2 is going to look like. Right now my main priority is The Sweet Sixteen Comic Contest. Once that is done, I will be spending the rest of December preparing for work on Chapter 2.

Hello again everyone.

This is the mid October update regarding my work flow and progress. October as been kind of a strange month. Progress on projects has kind of been all over the place.

Sweet Sixteen Comic Contest:

I'm making good progress on the Sweet Sixteen Comic Contest (though its been a bit slow). I have my script and thumbnails done, but only have 3 pages sketched out. The slow pace has been due to a number of things, mainly my need to get the panels right. I'm hoping to get the full 16 pages sketched out by the end of this month (fingers crossed). In the meantime, here are a few pics of my progress.

Sue n' Clark:

As stated in the last post, the first official Sue n' Clark volume will be released as two chapters. They will be released sometime in 2024 (release date pending). Right now, Chapter 1 has all its pages sketched out and is currently being cleaned up by a contracted artist. No work is currently being done on Chapter 2.

Miscellaneous:

At the beginning of October, I uploaded a speech bubble test so I could get a better idea of how I will be formatting dialogue in my webcomics. It was pretty dumb but it gave me a good feel for how I should go about dialogue moving forward.

Got some feedback too. Next time I'll make sure to smooth out all the corners of my speech bubbles. The more practice, the better.

Hey there folks.

Looks like we reached Spooky Month. Really feels like time is flying by. Anyways, here's an update on me.

Sue n' Clark

I'll be splitting Volume 1 of Sue n Clark into two parts. Each part will be in the range of 30 pages. The first part (Chapter 1) has all the sketches done (minus 1 or 2 pages) and is currently being cleaned up by a contracted cleanup artist. The release date for Volume 1 is still up in the air. I'm hoping for an early 2024 release of Volume 1. But as the great Linkara always said, "It'll be out when it's out".

Sweet 16 Comic Contest

Since I won't be reaching an "official" debut for Sue n Clark this year, I figured I could enter the upcoming 16 Page Comic Contest to get something out there. It seems like a good opportunity to establish a bit of work before the big debut. I'll be entering solo, so hopefully I get something done before the deadline.

Hey guys, just a quick update.

I started the month at a 12 page count for Sue n' Clark: Chapter 1. I'm now at a 22-23 page count, which is a lot smoother than last month's progress. On a side note, I'm starting to realize that calling it a "Chapter" may not have been the best title, due to its length. I'm estimating this first instalment will be between 30-60 pages long, which could fill an entire book. I might change the title a bit going forward.

So yeah, more of the same.

-Eugene

Hey Guys.

Since I'm not uploading as frequently as I used to, I figured I would give an update on how things have been going this past month.

Sue n' Clark: Chapter 1 is in the works

I am currently working on Chapter 1 of Sue n' Clark and have 12 of the sketch pages done. Its taken me a lot longer to produce than I originally thought, but I'm getting my footing as I go along. I have no official release date set for when Chapter 1 will drop, but I will continue to update you all on my progress. I'm hoping to get 2-3 pages of the draft done every day, making September the month of the draft's completion, but time will tell if that works out. Here are a few sneak peaks I took on my phone.

I realize its very rough around the edges, but that's why I'm not including it in the art portal. A lot of the rougher edges will be fixed in digital (and with the help of QueenBoo as an editor). Right now, my focus is on getting the sketches done so that they can be patched up at a later time.

The Loss Collab

Last month, I participated in the Loss Collab and submitted my own entry to the art portal. I definitely want to do more drawings in this darker style (when I finally have time to do so). While I like this piece, I want to get better at doing these types of drawings to give the full scale of bleak I'm looking to capture.

I'm so done with Twitter tbh

Maybe I'm just being a naysayer, but I can't fucking stand being on Twitter anymore. I've reached my breaking point after all the horrible ass updates Elon has made. Twitter was already bad enough with all the concern trolls and holier-than-thou stan accounts, but Elon's takeover and reworks have made the site irrelevant for my needs. What's the point of posting anything when it barley reaches any of my NG peers? No Elon, I'm not paying you to allow my posts to reach 2 more of my dead followers.

So yeah, for a large portion of the month, I haven't been on Twitter and its done me wonders. I guess I can thank Elon for ruining Twitter so bad, its made me "go touch grass". And to be honest, even if Twitter somehow got better, I still wouldn't return to it. The only people that seem to give that money pit any traction are terminally online losers who look for the smallest things to cancel people over. Twitter is literally just Kiwi Farms for mentally stunted zoomers and morbidly obese cat ladies.

Infrequent Art Uploads

I've never been good with keeping a frequent upload schedule, and I probably never will be. But I'm cool with that. I still try to upload to the art portal at least once a month (when I'm not on hiatus). Hopefully I'll be able to do just that in September.

Conclusion

Thanks again for reading my update. I should do more of these.
