Good evening, Steemit. Coming to you from 31,000 feet. I’m mid flight from Minneapolis to Philadelphia. I’m getting tattooed by my pal tomorrow, then the following day, the first of the New Year, I’ll be shooting her for Tattoo Society magazine. We’ll also be doing two exclusive shoots for Steemit and my Patreon.
I’ll also be making a trip to New York City to shoot two friends for “Dark Pinup” with . It’s be the final photography sessions to fill out the “Proclivities”, so if you follow me for the sexy art, this will be the place to see them. At some point, it looks like me and
will be getting together for an east coast Steemit comic artists meet up. He and I will be started a weekly commitment of deadlines and shaming for pages of our respective comics. If we can’t meet our deadlines, we’re going to start paying the other in STEEM as a progress penalty. Kommienezuspadt vs. Imhoff, coming soon!
Tonight’s post does involve comics! I’ve been talking about my crypto/STEEM inspired comics for a year. I have some characters developed, a full script and the first couple of pages. The thing is, if I drag my feet, I truly believe my premise for the comic is going to become a reality and I want it done before that happens. In my previous post, “STEEM, EOS and BitShares is allowing me to pursue my dream job!” I talked about how I’m seeing a window of opportunity to genuinely make a full transition from photography to full time comics. I feel like that day is getting closer and closer.
This drawing is a part of the same comic. I previously called the comic “Cryptoia”, until I learned there’s an exchange that shares the same name. The title for the comic is still TBA, but the story is in tact. In this sketch, Allan Graves and his fiancé, Marie Devilreux are walking off stage at a campaign style rally for witness. In this world of near future decentralized society, running for witness is like running for President or Chancellor. Millions of STEEM is spent on campaigning and traveling to be elected top witness.
I have to thank ,
and
for fielding my offbeat, fictional future blockchain inquiries to development this comic. Even before I left Minnesota,
,
and myself shared a coffee over informational light data technologies, dystopia cities with cold war style walls between the centralized and decentralized boroughs of England. Such good comic fodder.
More comic stuff coming, more in 2018 than ever, actually! Thanks for reading. For more comics, illustration, photography and the stories behind the work, follow me here !
