$25 Commissions are still available!

Update, 12/12/11: Commissions are currently closed. I'll open up again sometime in January.

The old commissionathon page may be gone, but that doesn't mean the fun is over! I'm still taking $25 watercolor commissions. What you get is a one-character watercolor (be it Precocious or your own character) and either a prop or simple background. The size is 8"x5".



As a bonus, I will also be including an extra limited-edition Precocious gocco print. Get 'em while they're still around!

For more watercolor samples, look over the sketch blog. I also have some more-talented artist friends who are looking for commission work, so if you have a big project in mind, use the feedback link to drop me a note about it and I'll pass it on!

New Copper Road! - 11/6/11

Vote on TWC to see it! In this installment, Kaitlyn takes on the wrath of the changing seasons. Stupid seasons.

Edit: Hey, look! Another week, another Precocious cameo in another comic. Check out Lucy's twitter feed in the most recent Badly Drawn Kitties!

In other news, since it was only up on the site one day before the switch made it go away, here's a second plug for the new Also, Bagels book!

A Precocious commission!

Look at what appeared in my email today! Here's another shout out to Tiff of The Cyantian Chronicles because she finished my commission today. Isn't it totally adorable?

All I told her was that I wanted all four main kids in there, and I left the rest up to her. I had no idea what the final would be until she sent it to me and I loved every minute of anticipation. The end result is something far more impressive than I could ever have dreamed up! Everything about it is great! You guys should totally go commission her too!

Darius in Precociousland

Here are some sketches I made of a Precocized version of Darius, from The Cyantian Chronicles. I needed a cameo, and it was his turn. He was actually offered to me for the Bright Kids, Big City arc, but I ended up using Celina and Sheana from that comic instead. Thus, he was due to be victimized by the kids!

About section upgrade

I've added many of the old about section pages back to the new site. You can check them out by clicking the (surprise!) "about" link in the top navigation. The cast page overhaul isn't quite finished yet, but I wanted to get it out there. The rest, in theory, are good. There may be some outdated info on them, so if you spot any please let me know!

We're still figuring out what's missing and what's not working. (The donation button will return soon!) As always, use the feedback link in the menu to send me any requests for site features, improvements and spotted errors.

Deleted Scene Time!

Here's a quick sketch of a comic that got cut for time. I thought this script was the weakest of the eight I wrote for the week, so it went away. In hindsight, I wonder if using this comic and combining #968 and #969 (making this comic the new 969) would have been better for pacing. Oh well, too late! (click the image for a larger version.)

The slickest of kats

As promised in the last post, here is the final of the Slick Kat commission! I cheated on this one a bit an used pen for the black markings... but they kinda look awesome so I think I can get forgiveness.

Another watercolor done!

Here's the Quincy in summer piece! Slick Kat is up next. I've been holding off on him because I'm scared of his precise markings. Today it will happen, though!

Cameo in Ginger's Bread

Go check out the current Ginger's Bread to see that a familiar Precocious face is back for revenge!

In non-cameo news, how's the new site working for ya? We're still discovering strange glitches here and there, so bear with us as we try to get things fixed. If you see anything weird, please use the feedback link to send me a note about it. We can't fix an error if we don't know it exists!

The best incentive!

October is over, and the daily incentives are gone. Aww. BUT WAIT! That means COPPER ROAD IS NOW BACK! Vote to see it!

Since the site transition caused some troubles, I'd like to share the last of the incentives, and by far my favorite one, again. People need to see it! (Click the image for the full version.)



Much love an thanks go to the artists who helped out: Cookie, Darc Sowers, Pea, Brookes Eggleston and Heidi Black!
