Done School!

Woot! Survived! I finished the introduction to comic production course at Vanarts.
Lots of stuff I already knew, lots of new info and it was nice to make a comic in someone else's methods.
Steve Rolston is an awesome teacher!
All in all, very beneficial, Daqueran feels like a pile of crap now,  but I'm okay with that, it's just a webcomic, I have other projects aside to do more seriously.

Well in that course we made a 4 page comic and I chose to do a small condensed section of a graphic novel project I'm planning to do after Daqueran is done. I'm making a mini sub-site for it and I'm going to post a teaser online on some sites.
I just want to fix some inks and stuff and re-letter it. I really had to rush at the last minute to get it all done so it wasn't as good as I wanted it to be.

Also, I bought a couple of Steve's comics, One Bad Day and Pounded, which were both awesome.

I'm going to post the pages on a new site and on the gurukitty studios blog in a few minutes

I will never understand how someone could pay 600$ for an art course and not try and take full advantage of it. I feel like my classmate really doesn't belong there, every class I'm wondering why he even bothered.

He never agrees with anything Steve (the instructor) says and he never brings anything to class to work on!

Last class one of the students, in our 3 student class, was sick so it was just me and him. It was a work class, where you just work and as you work you can ask questions and the instructor can point out your flaws as you make them, etc. Well this student decided he wasn't going to stay, he just came to get his thoughts and leave.

So that leaves me sitting there, Steve said because I was the last one there, I could go when I was ready. I had no questions and I was just drawing so I felt guilty hanging around and making Steve stay just for me, when I really didn't need him at the moment, so I went home as soon as I got a good start on my pages.

It just seems so ridiculous to spend the money and not listen. The guy seems to struggle constantly and you'd just cringe when you hear him ask questions and shit because you can tell he just wasn't listening and he wasn't paying attention.

It irritates me because he takes up time that my other Classmate and I deserve. I don't have too many questions, I get the most out of the critiques, but I think my other classmate sure could use the extra time.

Anyway, i just needed to vent that. We only have like 3 classes left and it really irritates me.

Also, I have no voice right now so I cant talk to anyone and vent properly. HAHA

I have a bad cold and I lost my voice, noone can understand me and I feel like an idiot.

Oh, I'm going to be making some cuuuuuuute little blank sletchbooks with GK Studios artwork on them for the convention this weekend!

I hope my voice comes back before then 0_0
