Double Feature?
General | Posted 3 months agoI feel like I may post another chapter of Sierra Tank Crew today. Sometimes I don't know if I want to post two in one day so they are not stepping in the spotlight of the other.
Another Step
General | Posted 5 months agoFinished my first draft of what I'm calling my second book. Now I can get back to drawing without that hovering over my head.
Another Year
General | Posted 8 months agoTime to see what 39 will bring me. I have a series of art books that I have been meaning to look through that may help improve my skills. I want to say I have a goal in mind, but setting strict goals seem to help and hinder me at the same time. Main aim is to continue with progressing Epsilon Delta, but I won't say no to some detours. In the last year I went from no time travel, no alternate timelines, and had a timeline that had a start and an end. Now I have a character in one project that goes forward in time, by accident, never backwards. Another project where I want to see what happens to a character in all their decisions, fortuneteller only three different ones, also a "Bad End" timeline. Then to cap it off I made it a cycle and no longer a line. It opened up so many new ideas, and a new drive.
Epsilon Delta Dump
General | Posted 12 months agoHopefully I got everything caught up and posted right. Due to the face that FA was down I still posted on DA. So I wonder if this will help or hurt. So things are kind of caught up now. Would have been more, but work just got too draining I had a slight burn out.
Current Plans for 2025
General | Posted a year agoIn violation of a "verbal" agreement I made with myself. Instead of falling back to the comic. I have decided to switch over to my Fire Saga Project, while still posting Epsilon Delta chapters when able. This "slow" switch over will hopefully prime me for November, when it is time to write again. The comic may still pop up, I really don't know, but with luck just trying to balance Foxwater, Fire Saga, and Epsilon Delta will give me enough variety to not burn out... yet the work load may be the thing that breaks me. I'm sure a dominant project will come out on top in a few months, but for now it's going to be a mix to see what sticks.
Off the rails a bit.
General | Posted a year agoSorry for not posting stuff. I'm house/cat sitting for my sister, and wouldn't you know it my laptop won't connect to the Internet. So my plans to at least post some chapters isn't quite working. So when I get back Monday I should hopefully resume my plans.
And now for something completely different...
General | Posted a year agoI've had a little comic I've made for myself and some friends since the early 2000's. I have so many scripts and things for it I could coast on it for years. Last year when I took a break from Epsilon Delta. to work on IRO I think, the changeover process took time. Some of my bigger projects can really get me in a great mood and also in a low one. It dawned on me that the comic I have is an easy switch over too since the production value is "lower" then the bigger projects. So my current plan to maybe build up to the comic and have something holiday related to post as well. Currently I have a patch of free time again that I need to work on something fun to keep my mind off things. Here's to a better and hopefully more fun future.
NaNoWirMo End update
General | Posted a year agoGranted I still have like 7 hours before it ends for me, but I got to a point where I felt I needed to wrap it up. Technically a continuation form last year. Total work count was 32,985. Now to get in touch with the artist AKA me to see what to do next. After a little break.
NaNoWirMo Update
General | Posted a year agoIt is going well. I made it farther then I was expecting. Kind of going through a slow spot at the moment. More then likely not going to hit the 50,000 word count, but hey I got where I wanted to get too finally.
Little Update
General | Posted a year agoStarting another attempt at NaNoWirMo tomorrow. Then with luck posting Vol. 2 in December.
Timeline
General | Posted 2 years agoI got around to making a banner! It is a rough approximation of my overall timeline of my universe. I do plan on posting a version with my project working titles.
Mental Break
General | Posted 2 years agoBeen taking a little mental break, turns out I kind of needed it. Hopefully going to get back at it when I get back from vacation around mid July.
Starting to think about the next step now?
General | Posted 2 years agoPast the half way point on Epsilon Delta Vol.1. When it ends do I go with Vol.2, or start attempting to draw this crazy thing. I haven't drawn a "proper" comic like thing since High School. If I go with posting Vol. 2 I will have to start writing again. I only got two thirds of the way through Vol.2 during my first attempt at a NaNoWirMo thing. Though Vol. 3 is really why I started writing this one over the Fire Saga I have planned, will get to you eventually. I would be lying if I didn't say the lack of comments/feedback isn't slightly annoying, but then I think, even if it's just for me, I'm happy to be getting something done.
Back to Epsilon Delta
General | Posted 2 years agoI was getting a little burned out on IRO, so I was like why not just start from the vary start of my timeline. Got ready to start there, but then people started getting back to me about that thing i did in November. Now that has yet again taken front and center. I hope it is well revived. I already had a small victory, some of the ones who go to look over it first, that I was sure wouldn't get it, not only got it but were slightly entertained by it. For me that is something, here's hoping for more feedback soon.
Temp Project Switch
General | Posted 2 years agoSwitching to my Imperial Racing Organization (IRO) Project. For the time being anyway. Hopefully get me some motivation back to get something done.
NaNoWriMo or My excuse for not posting
General | Posted 2 years agoAfter knowing about it for almost a decade or so I finally decided to take a crack at NaNoWriMo. https://nanowrimo.org/
The main goal, besides the challenge, is to get a working script for my Epsilon Delta project. Then once I get that maybe I can start working on the graphic novel?
I honestly don't know were I plan on going with it, considering I wanted to have all the characters drawn at least once. Only missed that goal by 11 or so. As of yesterday I was on track, and I think I got a few new favorite characters I was not expecting. I will try to be more active in the future, but no promises.

Soon...
General | Posted 3 years agoHopefully this weekend, I will find out if you can start work on a racing series, but hardly draw any cars. The way I have some things planed out it could be fun. We shall see.
Uh...
General | Posted 3 years agoHopefully I will start getting stuff going again soon. I was contemplating switching projects, but then the one I was working on for the last year or so said "I don't think so." After conceding to not switching something somewhat new/old slid in and said "I can hook you up with some Ideas..." With luck it will stoke the fires again and stuff will get going. Plus the warmer weather may help with things so I can get some fresh air more frequent.
Art Dump Inbound!
General | Posted 3 years agoI was going to just post stuff here and there while working on new stuff, but every once in awhile I'm going to post many things. May help me get established here? It will take off sometime.
At least I will get some stuff drawn
General | Posted 3 years agoWorking on some stuff, and if it doesn't work, worse case I have at least a few more drawings. The few sketches I have done so far work for me so if I hit another wall, I will have something. Could also give me an idea of how to move forward with projects. Hopefully I will be getting some downtime so I can figure out what I want to do. I want to be more active and try to get something going, or at least gain momentum to break the cycle of be active for a few weeks and then nothing for months.
Took Me Longer to Start Here Then Expected
General | Posted 3 years agoI have be meaning to start posting stuff on here for awhile, trying not to be reliant on one site, but I'm lazy. We shall see what happens here.
Place holder, for now.
General | Posted 6 years agoI've been meaning to set up an account on here for awhile. Currently a place holder for now. Current stuff is at: https://www.deviantart.com/castilo
Someday I plan on posting stuff on here.
