I don't really have anything funny to put in this header so I'll just put this sentence here instead.

An Odd Experience
I've been on DeviantArt a long time. Over 20 years, since the days when it was pretty dang new. I've never sought a lot of attention on it, and have had very long quiet spans. The artwork I went to school to make, sculpture and printmaking, doesn't really lend itself especially well to this sort of home I guess, so it was always more a place for my sketches and assorted odds and ends. My doodles, even the loosest and sketchiest, related to the Warhammer and Warhammer 40K fandoms, have historically been where the bulk of my page traffic and favorites came from. Which makes sense. That's the part of my rather niche interests that has the most intersection with what usually moves here on DA. I have been fine with these facts, content with quietly doing my thing, and glancing in here every so often. Doing my Batman/Joker comic Inside Out has been *very* different from that arc, and it's been intriguing to see, though also kind of emotionally complicated. As of today, in those 21 years
Batman/The Joker: Inside Out. Issue 1 Update
I've completed 18 pages of Issue 1 as of a few days ago, and have started in on the fourth and final scene of the issue. Heading into the home stretch, where I'll need to even do a cover at some point soon here! So the buffer is still pretty healthy, and I am pretty sure I'll be able to finish issue 1 before my posts catch up with where I am. We'll see where the workflow is once issue 1 is done.
Batman/The Joker: Inside Out. Issue 1 Status
Here's a quick update on where things are for my project Batman/The Joker: Inside Out. I've completed the first twelve pages of the first issue, and scripts/page/panel-by-panel breakdowns for the first two and a half issues. The ongoing short story/novella it's based on would run through a mini-series of about 5 full length issues, though by the time it's done there will presumably be 6-8 in the total run. It's a specific story with a beginning, middle and end, and of course we're still in the first scene of the first act. I'll post about 3 times a week, at a cadence of M/W/F, until my buffer of already-prepared work runs out, and then I'll reassess what my cadence will be going forward. If you're enjoying my comic, or even if you think it's terrible and I'm a hack, I'd love to have your feedback.
A Little Validation
My most recent deviation, above, brought me a bit of sorely needed validation. Over the past ten years I've slid out of the habit of producing artwork regularly, and my skills have deteriorated as a result. Along with that my confidence in my work has suffered as well. That's partially because I haven't been pursuing my art professionally, what with the need to make a living and not feeling that I can "make it" as an artist. Very common story: married man wants to keep a roof over his family's head and food on the table, so he feels he has to compromise some dreams to make that happen. I'm doing okay financially, but artistically I've felt a
