I'm still in the writing stages. I wanted to have some of it done and posted before the movie comes out, but that's looking less and less likely every day. And, let's face it, I just haven't been on much. My interest has nearly died because of the lack of good stuff out there.

I've even been waiting for some figures to see official release. I can't WAIT to get my hands on Resolute Roadblock, or Gung Ho. And I'd still love it if the Big H would put out a Resolute Duke with a smaller head. With his noggin right now, I'm lacking a definitive version of the boy scout.

Then of course, there's life.

I'm still tryin' to plug away, though. Hopefully I'll have SOMETHING up, sometime.

Have fun!!!

Well right towards the end of scale wars my mother-in-law got in a very bad car crash (Semi came accross the lane and knocked her 40 ft into a feild). Anyway I wraped up SW finally after many delays and took some time to deal with life and last night (coincedence) began working on the next chap of Toxie's 1:18th Universe (That picks up where SW left off). I am in the shooting stages but got a bit delayed with family stuff. But things are calming down finally so an update should be around the corner I think.

I've been pretty busy lately to the point that continuing the dio was feeling more like work than fun. I hope to at least finish off my Invaders story and I had bought stuff for the story line after Invaders. It also hasn't helped that I can only do outdoor shots on the weekends, and a lot of those have been pretty rainy.

I'm still into Joe, I just read the Above and Beyond movie prequel novel which I thought was pretty fun, and if the movie is like that, I think I will enjoy it. I also enjoyed the Resolute cartoon and the IDW comics.

I think I read somwhere that General Hawk is working on his next episode "The Darkness Falls" but that it being the definite work of his Joeverse its going to be huge and takes a lot of time to produce... but this was a long time ago (after he finished Ghosts) so I dont know what his situation is at the moment... or has he given it up entirely (which I doubt)?

But I'm still eagerly waiting it....

I'am also getting the feeling that a dio becomes more like work, or a obligation . This is what happens when your dio extends too much, but now I got more time and I will try to make all the photos and then photoshop it after.

I think some people do feel like this, Not sure the extent of it however, I have felt like that in the past, but not always. I think people need to remember to have fun with it no matter what.

.



thats what got me. if anyone remembers the last part of 08, i was putting out a pretty big chapter every 2 or 3 weeks. i loved seeing my work done, but it was taking had off from work and was rushed. but u still loved knowing my joeverse was coming alone. reason it seems so much like work is because i couldnt get to the story i wanted to without doing some boring stuff first that just had to be there. i didnt build sets to keep time down and help move alone, so that helped. with the interest of my cousin, im hoping to get going good. but with him working nights and a family through the day, its hard for us.

It definitely feels like work to me. I'm already at school doing CAD stuff and whatnot and I just really can't get the energy up to fiddle w/ stuff on my own computer. Plus, I'm feeling pretty low w/ GI Joe right now so my interest is definitely not there. On other hand, I started drawing again.

Big dio projects can be a downer sometimes. They're so much work and continuity can really limit what you want to do. When my comic starts to feel more like work than fun, I try to do a stand-alone photo for JoeDios. It can be a real relief to do something different and it gets the fun of GI Joe flowing again.
