Alpha Flag

Renee and I are going to be at Bent-Con for the weekend. Today, through Sunday! We have a table, but we haven’t been told what number it is yet! It’s an LGBT/queer-focused comics (and all the associated media!) convention. More info at the Bent-Con website.

Bent-Con at BURBANK AIRPORT AND CONVENTION CENTER • BURBANK, CA • NOVEMBER 30 – DECEMBER 2

It’s only the third year they’ve been putting it on, and neither of us has been, so we can’t tell you what to expect if you go. We hope to see you if you are going, though!

We’ll be selling Alpha Flag issues 1 and 2, Charlie pins, and issues of the Untitled SF minicomic.

I haven’t had time for much Alpha Flag in the past week. Been working on some paid comics work. I’ll get you all some links once it’s closer to launch on that. So I’ve got a few things for you guys this week. First off is one of the mixed media pieces for donators showing off parts of the Diver’s new ski jacket for Foxtrot–modeled after a certain reader’s husband’s ski jacket:

Also, I added some of the watercolors Renee and I have been doing to the bottom of the Soil page under the More Comics dropdown up in the menu.

Also, also, I set up a pretty page for you to read the first two chapters of Untitled SF, which is a series of interconnectedish science fiction/slice-of-life minicomics I’ve done over the last couple months. Some direct links:

I had Renee and a few friends over this weekend so we could pack up all of the donation issues and pins and so forth to get ready to send out soon (if you only ordered issues and pins, I’ve just gotta draw a few of your postcards! Bracelets are being made and illustrations are being drawn in between other work). Issue/pin orders will be going out this week, and the others as soon as their constituent parts are completed. Shouldn’t be too long!

I’m working on the new page, too, but until then, here’s what one of the high rollers is getting in the mail:

9″x11.75″ mixed media.

And another for good measure!

9″x11.75″ mixed media.
Virrey Philip Fèlix Sunil IV from Soil! I was really happy to get that as a request. I kind of miss working on that. Renee and I had some fond memories before we remembered how much crunching we actually had to do to get it to completion for the deadline. We semi-joked about doing a new Soil story in full watercolor, but then we remembered that we don’t have any time! (I’ve been moonlighting on two other comics projects. That’s what’s causing the AF delays this season.)

If you want to read Soil (again), I’ve moved it here, under the more comics tab in the header bar since my b site broke itself after an update.

Ohh, and if you don’t follow the Alpha Flag tumblr, here are some pictures of the donation incentive scarf in its completed form.
