I’d tell you how the original script went with Dr. Schtein in solitary but I actually mined that for use later on in the comic. So basically never tell people your ideas ever even if you don’t think you’re gonna use them, because you might!


That’s a writing tip, I guess?

sweetappletea replied to your post: Why hasn’t Lawrence gotten an artificial eye to…

By “not publicly available” does that mean it’s experimental? Like they’re still in the process of testing them?

Yes, I believe I may have mentioned somewhere that Dr. Schtein was the first human test subject implanted with them by virtue of sudden opportunity.

that’s why they’re not so great IE they only see in grey scale and he’s very sensitive to bright lights, and why they don’t look like human eyes. The natural color of the materials they’re made of is black, and the coating on the outside of them that creates an organic barrier between the eye and the body is clear, but it could easily be made white. They just hadn’t bothered yet. They were going to swap out his eyes with a better pair that was being manufactured but Dr. Schtein, in his cool depression-moping-mode, refused them. He absolutely hates medical doctors and absolutely hates being in hospital like environments, and that probably played a huge part of his refusal even if it would have been for the best.

It’s okay, he feels like an idiot now for refusing them. So now he’s a really huge jerk when the subject of his eyes is brought up at all.

guest week(s)

I literally cannot believe some of the amazing guest comics I am getting in the mail so far.

I can’t wait to start running them tomorrow. Gonna have to do some maths to figure out how many times I’ll be updating in the next two weeks, but I’ll say how much tomorrow probably.

a couple sweet previews. I can hardly contain myself, obviously!

Not too late to submit one if you were thinking about it! :U

deleted scenes

  • Leon: I fear we're getting off target here.
  • Schtein: Oh, come on, you just want to get some kind of stupid, petty revenge on me by making me blather on about my terrible, little life. So, go one, ask me about things I'm ashamed of! That's the same thing, isn't it? I've got some gems! You know, like [deleted for spoiler reasons.] Hmm. Stuff like that, that's what you want to hear, right?
  • Leon: Actually I didn't particularly want to know that...
  • Schtein: Or, maybe how I have the hair triggeriest gag reflex in the whole world? I've vomitted at the dentist's office so many times I've lost count... and now I've got this chip in my tooth. So all I can think about is if I ever get out of here I'm gonna have to go to the dentist again and oh god-

Okay, re: guest strips

Sorry about the delay.

Anyway,

I’m placing the deadline on these for September 12, so that’s a fair bit of time I think…

What I want:

Any sort of either comic page or cool pinup art sorta thing. Looking for completed looking art, no stick figures, you know, ha ha. :Y

Nothing that goes over the edge of the ratings I’ve had so far. So you know, no hot makeouts or uh whatever, internet. That probably goes without saying, but you never know!

—

Anyway how often I update during guest week (s?) is entirely up to you, people! :D

Sep 12 email me ( heavymetaljaq @ gmail . com ) an already sized page no wider than 768 pixels (can be as long or short as you like, can also be less wide than that). I don’t want to resize your stuff for you, so unfortunately I’ll have to reject stuff that isn’t saved all ready for the web.

And like if you want me to make linkouts to your stuff please include that as well! With whatever name you go by. :3

Please don’t send me an ask here about it or message me on DA or whatever, just shoot me an email. It would be MOST HELPFUL to have the messages all pile up in one place rather than be scattered everywhere.

So there you go. And thank you so much if you’re even considering making something, seriously!

Things:

I’m going to write up a request for guest pages pretty soon! Like in a few days or so. I’d like a few weeks off from the comic sometime in september for

  1. my birthday
  2. so I can work on a short for a digital zine
  3. so I can also build some buffer material.

My birthday’s september 13th, so that gives people some time, I think! I’m gonna be 29. :O

Anyway that gives anyone interested a little bit of warning, but I’ll write up a nicer thingy on kinda what I want from it soon. But it’s a sweet opportunity for some front page links from me if you have an art gallery or your own comic or project or whatever and I get to keep updating for a short period without the stress. Hoooray, everyone wins.

—-

I deleted dr. schtein’s formspring long ago and also his facebook (due to privacy concerns, it kept reverting to previous settings and displaying my phone number no matter how many times I deleted the information! >:C)

But you can still send him asks through this tumblr if you want. You can even ask anon if you are shy or whatever. I’ll try and draw the answer!

Asks I won’t answer:

  • Really gross questions that are also creepy (I know I’ve answered some creepy ones in the past, but I don’t believe I’ll do it anymore.)
  • Spoilers (or I might answer with really vague question dodgy things), though don’t worry about this so much, I know what I consider spoilery is kinda random. Generally anything I am planning on answering in the comic I’ll probably dodge.
  • Repeatedly asking him how he’s even on the internet. I cannot think of a funny answer to this and I don’t even want to or care to. Just suspend that disbelief, okay? c:

Anyway, I figure, at the most, I will answer one a day (I do not want to flood people’s dashes), but I’m not guaranteeing that I’ll answer one everyday or that I’ll answer every question. Just whichever ones I can think of funny or interesting answers to. :y

Don’t worry, the onus is not on you to be entertaining in your questions, it is on me in my answers (or rather dr. schtein’s answers, ha ha)

You know, if you want to. You don’t have to.

Oh, you can ask other characters questions as well! Actually that would be pretty fun!
