A couple of things…

June 19, 2004 by Tim

The radio interview is tonight, so get your questions emailed in, or get them ready if you plan to call in and ask me live. Also, if you play the PC version of Thief 3, I urge you to check this out. This guy, noticing that some of the textures in Thief 3 were lower […]

Radio killed the web comic artist

June 18, 2004 by Tim

So just a reminder, I’ll be on WNUK Radio tomorrow night. You can call up and ask your questions live, but the phone lines may be crowded, so your best bet would be to email your questions. If you have any questions about CAD that you’d like answered on the radio, please email them to […]

Thief 3 and backing up

June 17, 2004 by Tim

First of all, I think I’ve decided to go with a DVD backup system for now, as it’s more practical for me. I should have mentioned it earlier, but most of the stuff I’m worried about is a one-time backup. For instance, I back up all of the original comic files, and store them, and […]

Oops

by Tim

So I just looked at the front page and realized I never made the news post yesterday that I thought I had. I usually work pretty much all day. Yesterday, I cut out early to take my girlfriend out to dinner and to see Harry Potter. In all the rushing around to do work in […]

I almost forgot…

June 14, 2004 by Tim

This Saturday evening, June 19th, I will be on good old internet radio, over at WNUK Radio. You can email them your questions for me ahead of time, or call up and ask me them live. I’ll remind you throughout the week, so you can tune in. Hopefully it will be lots of fun. Also, […]

Elf

by Tim

So this weekend was rather interesting. It started out pretty shitty, and got progressively better. Late Thursday night I started to get a headache. It was no big deal, I get them every now and then. I finished up Friday’s comic and went to bed early. On Friday morning, I woke up with the headache. […]

Alright, news stuff

June 11, 2004 by Tim

I’ve been taking it real easy over the last couple of days. Not entirely by choice, as I’ve become inexplicably sick, but nonetheless I’ve been resting a lot. Still getting stuff done however. No more delayed comics. So the printer has received the book materials. They will now run off what is called a ‘proof’, […]

Bombs away

June 9, 2004 by Tim

You know, if I never again have to read, or even look at any of my first one hundred and fifty strips, I will be pleased. However I know that’s not going to happen. I know it’s not going to happen because I finished the book this morning. After one last 36 hour work session […]

I did it. The book is finished. It sits here in front of me, ready to be fedexed to the printer. The thing is, it cost me another 36 hours with no sleep to do it. I’m going to put up the new comic later tonight. I wanted to do it right now, but I […]

The whole deal

June 7, 2004 by Tim

This past weekend has made two things abundantly clear. 1.This book is going to be absolutely gorgeous. 2.This book is going to kill me. I’ve got so much to cover, I don’t even know where to begin. Alright, well, the comic is up. But it was late. I’m going to explain why, for thise of […]

Ok

by Tim

12:33pm. I just walked in the door. Will have the comic and a new news post up in an hour or so. Bear with me.

Heads up

by Tim

Ok, the comic is going to be up later than usual today. I wanted to give you a heads up, so you knew what was going on. I’m sure by now you know me well enough to know that I never miss an update, and I always give you an explanation if a strip is […]

Paddling

June 4, 2004 by Tim

Read about the book. Buy the book. Excuse me for a moment while I swim through the sea of pre-orders, to your general location. This is great. Not only have we gotten tons of pre-orders, I’m now hearing talk from the printer that they may be able to complete the order quicker than was originally […]

Oops

June 3, 2004 by Tim

You know what I did? I promised you a preview of the cover today. And here it is now, 2am, and I’m just putting it up. I’m terribly sorry about that. We’re still working on the book, and will be right up until five minutes before we send it off for printing. I’m trying to […]

Wow…

June 2, 2004 by Tim

Update: Just because we hit our mark, doesn’t mean you can’t still pre-order. I’ll let you know well ahead of time when I stop taking pre-orders. Read about the book. Buy the book. So, I had been planning to put up the progress bar today, right? To show you how many more pre-orders we needed […]

Exclusives! Wallpapers

May 31, 2004 by Tim

Last day to donate to receive these wallpapers! Easily the coolest wallpapers I’ve ever done.

Small update: I’ll be showing off the cover of the book sometime soon, but in the meantime, if you want to check out the artwork that will be used, head on over to Applegeeks, where Hawk has it showcased. I drew the pencils, and Hawk inked and colored them. His work is amazing, and I’m […]

Exclusives! Wallpapers

May 29, 2004 by Tim

In addition

May 28, 2004 by Tim

I thought I would point out that the City of Heroes comic book should be in comic shops as well. Or at least you could have your local comic shop order one. I’m not one hundred percent certain about this, but damn close enough.

Commentary

by Tim

Update:Well, it means that I’m now going to be up until dawn working on book stuff, but I managed to get the Exclusives! wallpapers finished. So I can give you a sneak peek of what you’ll get if you donate/donated in April or May. Scroll down to see the previews of the wallpapers. /End Update […]

Downtime

May 27, 2004 by Tim

There was a bit of downtime earlier, as I’m sure some of you noticed. It was a large network problem, and the server on which CAD resides happened to be affected. All should be fixed now. Sorry about the inconveniance.

Thief 3

May 26, 2004 by Tim

Taking a break from writing commentary for the book (who would have thought it would be so difficult to come up with interesting things to tell about the strip?) to bring you my first impressions of Thief 3 which I played for a short while this evening. A lot of it feels very much like […]

Thief 3 comes out today. I’m going to go pick it up, and then put the box on my computer desk and glance at it continually throughout the day with a sense of longing, because I’ve dedicated myself to getting this book done and I have to spend the whole day working on the commentary […]

Short and sweet

May 24, 2004 by Tim

Mmm, only a couple of more days until Thief 3. Or maybe only one, depending on which source you believe. Either way, I know that my work ethic will suffer a momentary bout of lethargy. What about yours? My friends over at AppleGeeks have hit their 100th issue. Congratulations! I expect to begin taking pre-orders […]
