Here is my 2016 entry for March Modok Madness. You can find more entries at: http://marchmodokmadness.blogspot.com/
It is always fun participating. I think last year’s entry was better, but what can you do.
Hope I’m not too late to enter.
Saturday March 12, 2016 was MiniComics day. You can find out more about minicomics day at http://www.minicomics.org/. Normally I will say I am going to participate but then get tired and not finish much of anything. However, this year was different, this year I actually finished a minicomic.
Not only that, I produced a making of series on YouTube while I went too. I stayed up way too late finishing it, but I think it turned out pretty cool. It turned out to be a massive seven part series. I only finished printing and putting together a single comic before going to bed but I am going to call it a win.
If you want to see the youtube series check out the links below, if you just want to read the comic, just keep reading after the break.
I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks,
I started hourly comic day last year, but ran out of steam. The site that hosted the forum with all the comics kind of fell apart. Now it is filled with someone’s blog spam. It kind of ruined my motivation last year and I quit just a few hours in. Despite last year’s poor showing I decided to try once more. Need to do at least one post a year, right?
Anyway this year I am drawing it on my phone, it is always with me and I won’t have to scan everything. I did pay extra for the one with the pen so I should use it, right?
I am gonna try to upload and revise this post throughout the day. So stay tuned.
OK, I promised to write this post a long time ago, lets get it over with. I still hate the ribbon interface Microsoft puts on things now a days. For similar reasons I dislike the start screen too.
A lot has happened over at Microsoft since I said I would write this post. The guy in charge of Windows 8 is gone. The CEO of Microsoft has been removed and replaced. They even make an XBox One without the evil always on microphone/spy camera. It seemed they would even put out an update to put some sort of start menu back. Unfortunately the last one appears to be stalled until Windows 9.
You don’t get that sort of reaction from a company unless they have been making such awful choices where despite a near monopoly customers decided to just stop buying your stuff. Windows 7 and the now unsupported Windows XP still dwarf Windows 8 in market share. So Microsoft here is a list of things I dislike about both the ribbon and start screen.
I decided to participate in March MODOK Madness this year. I didn’t want to do it alone so I got my nieces and nephews to draw with me. I had to bribe them with Pokemon cards to do it, but such is life. Of course I am lazy and waited until the last minute to submit the pictures. Hopefully I’m not too late and we get in this year.
Without further ado, here are the pictures. Hopefully I’ll be able to get more to draw with me next year.
