Sooo what I've been up too...
12 years ago
Bit of a long story. ^_^ but overall ok. Busy with comic company stuff. Everything is late, and people are upset. XD
Trying my best but its so hard and ugh so expensive.
Last week I did a mostly last min trip to Anthrocon in Pittsburgh since most of the
company hasn't seen me in 4 years and that's the easiest way for them to see me
(the guys have been worried about me since my heart issues started thanks to
the chemicals at my job at G.E. giving me a heart problem).
So I was at Anthrocon last weekend, and the weekend prior to that, a guy who worked with
James Cameron to secure the "Battle Angel" manga license contacted me about
doing a book with him based on a script he sent to 20th Century Fox. That
sounds exciting, but I haven't heard from him since.
He wanted to meet
up with me at Anime Expo last weekend but I had already had plans for Anthrocon
(and besides getting yet another ticket last min and one to California would have
been hela expensive). I still haven't heard back from him since however. :/
Saw
jayaxer and
kamicheetah for the first time in years. They where happy to see me
but not so happy to hear about my situation. They chewed me out a bit. :P But only
because they cared. Thanks guys. :)
Most of the people who haven't seen me in years noticed how I didn't look
quite the same. Sure its been 4 years, but at the same time I guess I shouldn't
have gone from this: http://jasoncanty.deviantart.com/ar.....dies-141462006
While I was still a broke poor ass Teacher in 2009 (the last time most people
Saw me publicly) To this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7230621/
To an equally broke ass G.E. employee XD (well only broke because
now that the company is doing err "better"? its now even more expensive
:/ )
To well I don't have a more recent picture but Apparently my face looks very skinny
from stress while my body has gotten a little chubby (for me that is) due to lack of
physical activity. Teaching Job I run around town to 2-3 schools aday having to keep
up with hyper 6-16 year olds. To Working at G.E. where work around some not so
nice stuff with 50-80 year olds who tell me to "slow down you're working to fast"
XD
While I was away at Anthrocon, another movie guy contacted me about his script/comic.
Since hes a bit smaller he's been in contact of course since working with me/US
at AVP would be a boon to him if everything works out.
And on Wednesday a professional ad agency that works with Hollywood wanted to contact
me about turning our comics into Online games (but for online casino's so
not that cool, but still if it happens that would be money for us).
However I haven't heard back from them ether about the games. Some of the guys
where like "OMG they contacted you" and I was like yeah who are these guys?
and Apparently they are a big deal with Sports and acting and other Hollywood shit.
Still I never heard of them and they haven't emailed or called back. :/
I've also been drawing, well in pencil, still need to practice my digital drawing.
I'll try to scan up everything later.
Been busy trying to get the last 500 Evil Diva #1's in hand, they are waiting for me
at a dock in Boston, but I also have to wait until the shipper releases them. I was first told one thing and all I had to do is pay a release fee, which I did, but once I got there I had to go to customs to have them release it. However that should have already happens in NYC when customs got a hold of the books there. Anyway Customs then said oh since I could possibly make money off these books I need to hire a Customs Broker so they can help me figure out what taxes, bonds, and tariffs I will owe the U.S. Government. Then once I pay for all of that, I can then have customs give me a release form, so I can go to the warehouse and pay them to release the remaining Evil diva books to me.
Now no one has given me an idea of how much this will cost, but its surely more than the "oh it'll only cost an extra $300" the printer told me it will be. This is the same who is "located" in Florida, but prints in China and caused my huge delay and extra expense for Evil Diva #1 and Possibly hurt sales for Evil diva #2 and SWIPE #1 due to the book being late.
And with all that I'm still doing my day job, helping take care of my mom, and other issues with family. But hey
believe it or not... Things are better than they used to be. O_O
So yep thats what I've been up too. I'll try to scan some "art" later, but now I'm going to treat my slelf
and see Pacific Rim.
