Getting out of the house

Last weekend I really had to get out of the house again and I did visit the Louwman museum. The photos will follow. The rest of the weekend it was watching television and doing nothing, so no comic update this week and no progress on the site.

Two photos from my previous museum visit, the bunkers by the Afsluitdijk (in Dutch: kazematten bij Kornwerderzand). While called kazemattenmuseum, it is only about the ones at the Afsluitdijk, so the name of museum is a bit misleading. The scenery is great and you do get a good view on the Afsluitdijk.


How often must they replace the barbed wire? I’d guess that the stuff will rust quickly, especially with salt water nearby. I forgot to ask :( .

Painted black

Had to adjust a few colors, because I use to much black and gray. As usual it just takes some practice to get the colors right.

Skipping time

This does nicely bridges to to the first away mission. Originally my idea was to do some comics before the first away mission, however I never found some good story, so skipping to the first away mission is the best thing to do. Skipping time and the boring parts of a story are great techniques to keep a story to the point. I think that with this comic I at least give a view of the life on board within 9 panels.

Broke the 1 update a week scheme

Well, I wasn’t able to finish this weeks comic. With also falling behind with the drawing and tracing, it is not unexpected to miss the publishing. Drawing more than 3 panels a page and thinking how to draw some characters (I had to figure out how to draw Drayka in the new style) are the main reasons for this. Because I do not want to rush things, the comic will come next week. With a day job I guess I must be happy with updating once in the 2 weeks.

Later in the week I’ll probably post some nice photos I took during my trip to the Kazematten museum.
