For my buddy Bizzaro, member and co-leader of the Retro Gaming Rangers over at Justin.TV
He’s a HUGE Goukii (the Japanese name for Akuma) fan from the Street Fighter series! Quick pencil drawing with some color plopped down in Photoshop.
You work really hard on your streams Biz, you deserve it!
Goukii and Street Fighter are copyright Capcom. Art is Copyright me.
Howdy y’all!
I’m hard at work penciling pages for my Thesis, as well as taking on some additional illustration and cartooning gigs! In my spare moments, I’m re-discovering what’s functional on my site again. I’ve added a new page, and have a test-image up for my soon-to be professional Illustration Portfolio page and soon you’ll be able to check out my most up-to-date Resume there as well. Check it out!
It appears things are once again in relative order here at RKdia Comics. Thanks again to Cat Garza for mastering the web so well for me. He’s suggested that future updates of Wordpress or my plugins be made directly on my server, and not through my WP-Admin. This should hopefully prevent future cases of down time due to a half-installed upgrade. A test image will appear above shortly to make sure everything is in order in the “Comics” portion of the site. I’m also going to continue to work on re-design, and a few choice ads and banners may soon appear for people like Cat who deserve all the attention they can get! Also, expect lots more comics content, I’ve been very busy during this down time.

Though it’s not dependant on my site being down, I have put up some various new sketches and things at my Flickr account, I use it as a sketch dump often, so be sure to check it out from time to time. I also tend to backup any image posts I make here there as well. Till I get full functionality back, I recommend going there often!
Also, be sure to check out the new TCAF Site for updates on the upcoming convention. I hopefully will be there!

I continue to struggle getting this site back to proper shape. My permissions are still rather messed up, and I can’t upload anything from my WP-Admin. I can’t even upgrade to the latest version to protect against what happened the last time! It’s all super lame, and at a time when I’m creating so much material too! *sigh* Cat and I have a lot of work ahead of us yet! At least when I do get this site going again, I’ll have plenty to upload and let sit for a while.
In other news, my final semester of school EVER starts Tuesday, and I plan to immediately sit down and start penciling as many pages a day as I can of the prologue chapter to my Thesis project. I won’t post them here until after a page is 100% done however, as I plan on presenting it as a pseudo-web comic. Get excited everybody!

Good evening all, and soon to be happy new year! I hope you all had a very merry Christmas.
Here’s an update on the status of my site:
My web guy, Cat Garza has just returned from his holiday in Texas, and I’ll be looking to get his help in restoring my site back to normal in the coming month. Once I do, I’ll be gung-ho for getting more content up. In the meantime, I’ll be taking some time off to actually create said content.
I’m in the midst of a SECRET PROJECT, spearheaded by comics great and my teacher, Steve Bissette. I can’t give you any details until the publication date which is not until the end of January 2010. By then I’ll have an incredible amount of original art (I hope) and comic pages not only up to see, but probably up for sale as well!
After that, my final semester at CCS will begin and I’ll be cranking out finished comic pages at a rather regular clip…or so I hope!
Stay tuned my friends!
