NOTES: I had so much fun painting the issue four cover that I just had to try a full montage this time! This is it for me until the New Year -- we'll be back in early January with issue five. Until then, stay safe and warm. <3

(I won't be out of touch, though. I plan to keep checking in on comments, and I'm hoping to get the fanart gallery updated before I leave for Florida on Monday. I've got a backlog of awesome art a mile long.)

Today's incentive features Diva and Angela and is the last of holiday sketches. Enjoy! And thank you for continuing to vote for us.

NEXT: January 2010~!

NOTES: FINALLY, IT IS DONE.

I know it's late again, but I really did try my best to do a good job on this story. I certainly learned a lot this time too! (I'm finally getting a feel for how much space to allocate when a character does a TL;DR speech.) Thank you so much you guys for indulging me when it comes to these ROMAs — I know they may not be everyone's cup of tea, but they're a good way for me to stretch creatively between issues.

I'm planning to post the finished issue five cover on Friday, then next week I'll be on vacation in Florida, so there will be no new updates or incentives.

Today's incentive shows the next two stages of work on the cover. On the left, I've blocked in the flat colors, and then on the right I'm beginning to figure out the color scheme. Next, I'll go in with Painter and start cleaning up the lines and smoothing out my brushstrokes. ^^

NOTES: Whoooa. This is perhaps the latest one yet — I apologize profusely. I honestly don't know how the time got away from me. (Seriously, I somehow lost around two hours between leaving work and getting home. I mean, I know I stopped to get some food … and I did look for a Christmas present or two … >.>)

At least there's only one more ROMA left. Friday should be the issue five cover (assuming it doesn't take me forever to paint it), then I'm jetting off to Florida for the holidays. I can't wait to see my family!

Today's incentive is the thumbnail sketch for the issue five cover — it's going to be a painted montage this time. FUN.

NOTES:

… Okay, so for those of y'all who are unfamiliar with the story, basically it goes like this: Loki was bound* by the gods to three rocks as punishment for his involvement the death of the god Baldr. (He killed him, but indirectly, as Loki is wont to do.) The gods then tied a serpent above him, from whom dripped (a burny-type) venom. His wife Sigyn held a bowl above his face to catch the poison, but every now and then it got full and she had to empty it. Her absence caused the venom to hit Loki, and he writhed in pain, which caused earthquakes.

As I got to thinking about this story, I realized a couple of things: 1) they would've driven each other nuts after a few millennia (hence the divorce) and 2) … that snake had to have some sort of salivary defect. All the other snakes probably teased him about it. Thus was born: pathetic dweeb-Shnake.

ANYWAY. In non mythology-related news, we hit an all-time high for comments on the last post — 70! Holy mackerel! I guess it's time to ask: would you guys like your own forum?

*Some stories say that he was bound to the rocks with his son's guts, but since that is gross, I went with chains.

Today's incentive is a picture of Diva and Tia exchanging gifts. Please remember to vote if you're enjoying this story — we slipped from third place yesterday, and Joe was inconsolable. (Really, guys, it's kinda uncomfortable to watch a grown man cry. ;))

NOTES: AHAHAHAHA. I've been wanting to do this page for so long. More than a few people saw this coming, but there's still a bit of this story left to play out. :D

In other news, Kelly Melcher from Fandomania has featured an interview with Pete, Joe and I on her column, Webcomic Wednesday. If you're curious about what goes on behind the scenes here (or even who does what), you should give it a peek!

Today's incentive is something a little different. Every year, I draw a Christmas card for Pete and his family, and this year he requested something I had no trouble whatsover drawing: him and his family as devils a la the comic.
