IT'S LAUNCH TIME! (05th November 2010)

I haven't made an official announcement here yet but yes, Jason and myself have working very hard for the past couple of months to get this beautiful website up and running.


Everything is set, the comic is archived, the featured fanart is on site, the oekaki system is operational for communication between fans and all the other necessities are up there right now - all with the exception of the STORE (I've still got time to make updates on it in the coming future, so don't you worry you'll get your copy of the book. ;))

A very special thanks to Jason aka :iconchemb0t: for taking the time and dedication once again for creating another brilliant website that is associated to my comic/cartoon endeavours. He's been a great friend and a wonderful help to the whole process, it shall go down in the history books for sure on my part. :D


So enjoy the site and don't miss out for future updates! The adventures of GRAND HUNTER truly begins today!



Check out the new website!



Slight Delay...! (02nd November 2010)


Oh blimey! It was as expected but things didn't go according to plan as scheduled... :D I had been given extra shifts for work last fortnight and hench I was unable to make the official opening of the GRAND HUNTER website with Jason that was scheduled for Halloween. My apologies for that.

However not to worry, I've got 3 days off after I come back from work tomorrow so the site grand opening WILL proceed within a couple of days. ;)

We look forward to your company then! *thumbs up*



Darkspeeds' New Drafting Room! (28th October 2010)

It's been a whole day but it's been worth the set up! My brand new drafting room is complete! Originally my bedroom recieved a makeover a month ago and now it is transformed into my own studios - a place where I'll be doing most of the creative work! :)

If you'd like to check out a virtual tour complete with commentarty check out my :bulletred: YOUTUBE CHANNEL. :bulletred:


The video contains the following elements:

i) A virtual tour of my new drafting room (a place where I draw my comics and concept sketches)

ii) Tips about setting up your own home studios as a comic artist.

iii) How to keep your comics in mint condition.

iv) My collection of books and comics that inspire me on my creations.

v) Updates on GRAND HUNTER website.



Almost 10 minutes of footage. Sorry to keep it long, I can't help but to do the 'show and tell' routine. :giggle:

Also here are some photos to show, I love behind the scenes stuff. ;)




Tad-daah! Ain't she a little beaut!




Comics! Books! Comics! Books...!




Me and my bookshelf filled with material that'll inspire me to draw and create.



ALMOST... There...!: (20th October 2010)

This drawing I did at the 'Darkspeeds Oekaki' board pretty much sums up how I'm feeling about the official GRAND HUNTER website updates lately...





We're SO close to having it open that it's not funny! X_X; XD Cuz when that happens I can FINALLY work on the damn comic properly! XXD I will also be adding concept sketches and full coloured pieces from time to time just to mix things up a little.

Jason's been doing an excellent job with getting the website up to where it should be and I have a lot to thank him for over the past month overlooking the project.

For now let's just sit back and say that this baby's going to open before Halloween comes. ;) *thumbs up*


Oh and also! A special thanks to all of those who had participated in contributing drawings to the oekaki board! I've noticed quite a fair few have signed up, but where are you all? Come and get inspired, and more importantly, get drawing! There's nothing more better than to express your creations with an 'easy to pick up and play' program such as the oekaki! Give it go guys and gals!




Ash and Fei has An Announcement To Make: (14th October 2010)


Photobucket


This was a load of fun to do. X3 I can't believe how simple it is to upload your own drawings on a public board both 'live' and 'instantaneously'. :D What's also cool is that you get to record your own progress - this is an excellent feature as it will also give insight as to how the artist draws in their own style. Use this as a learning tool boys and girls!

Go and give it a shot guys! ^^


Darkspeed's Oekaki Board! - Start Drawing Kiddies!! ^^ (14th October 2010)


Great news folks! The GRAND HUNTER website is almost complete!
So far Chemb0t has done an excellent job getting things together for the site, I'm just adding in the contents as we go along. :D

However what's even more beautiful about the news is that he's managed to set up this sweet-as personalised oekaki board for my official website (i.e. www.darkspeeds.com).


So yeah what are you waiting for? Let's check out the submissions you have to offer to the table. ;) Be sure to read through the rules to the oekaki board first before registering and posting your hand drawn illstrations live! It's that simple, so simple that it only took me 10 minutes to start drawing my first picture!

Have fun everyone and I'm looking forward to what you guys can show me! :)
