Weekly Friday Update (10/28/16) - Animated Sequel

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (10/28/16) - Animated Sequel from patreon

welcome back once again. its almost halloween!

this week's update is a full character animation for miles. it was a part of a class-wide anijam and i wasn't able to clean it up unfortunately. but it's a taste of more to come hopefully.

as far as other things go, they're definitely going. class is eating up a lot of time ...

Weekly Friday Update (10/21/16) - Animated Edition

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (10/21/16) - Animated Edition from patreon

back on time this week with something somewhat new. its a pencil test animation of a head turn of anne. this was done for class, but is otherwise a full "360" rotation of anne's head. her head is actually pretty symmetrical, so there's not much you could've otherwise assumed.

check back in next week for more related animated t...

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (9/30/16) - The Thrilling "Conclusion" from patreon

welcome back to a late friday update. i don't really have much to show this week other than that, hopefully, the new horizon beta comic (the pilot) will be at NYCC this coming week! you can find it at the SVA booth. i'm not exactly sure where that booth is, other than that it's on the main show floor. i might even see you there!

Weekly Friday Update (9/23/16) - A Timely Update

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (9/23/16) - A Timely Update from patreon

i was out and about virtually all day today, so here's a rather late update.

this update isn't very much and that's mostly because the interesting stuff is what i'd deem spoiler territory. rest assured it's not another redesign, however some important plot details are starting to align into place as more and more of the overal...

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (9/16/16) - This Isn't a Text File from patreon

hello again, just barely making a friday update by the skin of my teeth. a lot of stuff happened today so i nearly forgot!

i've been working on a lot of stuff. plot-wise, as of right now everything from volumes 1 through 3 are planned out. i don't remember if i said anything about full layouts before, but there's likely to be ...

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (9/9/16) - Manuscript Mfriday from patreon

hello! this week's image is some kind of emotions sheet. it's moreso me just trying to feel around for the Perfect Final Design. believe it or not, the pencil-y ones were done last. i'm still curious about giving him "black" hair though.

aside from that, i've started roughing in panels into the printed comic manuscripts. s...

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (9/2/16) - Biz Cas Fri from patreon

this week went by very fast! and i don't have a lot to say.

not much was really updated since last friday; i moved into college this past week so i haven't had much time to really think. so in the meantime, here's some casual clothes.

welcome back to another update. i don't remember if i said it last week but the first issue's script is done! if i said that already then there's the recap! if i didn't, now you know!

on a similar note, i've started working on the second issue. the first issue, despite being similar to the original pilot, takes quite a differe...

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (8/19/16) - Development Never Ends from patreon

welcome back to your weekly scheduled programming, i'm your host, and i finished the script to the first part of the first chapter of the first volume.

baby steps, right?


at any rate, that probably doesn't sound like a lot- which, i mean, in the long run, it's not. but!

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (8/12/16) - Welcome to New Vera City from patreon

welcome back to another update. here's a wide shot of the main location of NH, new vera city. new vera city will be the primary location of the first volume, acting as a "world 1" of sorts.

it's mostly inspired by new york city, and the surrounding beaches on long island. new vera itself is only a small part of a much larg...

hello again, here's an NPC! that stands for non-playable character. you usually see them in video games.  but, that's simply how i'll be referring to background characters that don't have much plot relevance, if any at all.

at any rate, here's one design with a bunch of alternate colors. they're all references, as per...

Mars Gainsboro post Weekly Friday Update (7/29/16) - The Dump from patreon

alright, so let's talk about things.

i think it's obvious by now that i change things a lot and frequently, it's essentially a curse. though at the least this is right before i actually get locked in and start working on the comic.


as an inconsequential side note, right near the end i started drawing everyone wit...

hello! it's saturday again. needless to say i think i lost track of time, which is entirely on me, though quite a bit has happened to cause my mind to wander. for one, my chair broke, so now i'm stuck sitting on the floor essentially until the new one comes in the mail, the sonic 25th anniversary party was last night, and my AC ...

so now that the promo comic's over, there won't be things updating around here on fridays anymore. well, not really comics at any rate- at least not yet.

to remedy this, i'll be posting a new "completed" (assuming i have one) sketch every friday with like, actual things to read. which is a pretty far cry from just posting ...
