Happy to be back and updating again. Sorry if the art is a bit wonky, I’m a but out of practice over the last few weeks, so please… I promise I’ll get better.
Also, was really happy to draw that last panel 
This is a write up I’ve been meaning to do for a while, and I really need to take a moment to do it “right”. First and foremost, Scout Crossing won the grand prize on the Fabler! I didn’t expect to win, I really didn’t think that my art and writing would even end up in the top ten, but I couldn’t be happier that it did (seriously, I was actually shaking).
NOW, this is what I want to talk about…
The Fabler is doing a really great thing for creators who want to break into the comic/webcomic industry, they don’t promise you a syndication or a pay per page deal, but they offer you much more than that… they offer you the chance to win the tools to be a better artist, and the ability to make a better comic. This is something I don’t exaggerate by any means, the Fabler is giving anyone the chance to show their comic to the world, have it be voted upon by users and judges, and are letting everyone compete for products by Wacom, which is the leading standard for creators today.
In truth, Scout Crossing is a comic dedicated to my late older brother, he was an artist, a writer, and he’s the sole reason I grew up to love comics so much today. So far everyone’s support has been great, better than great (I honestly don’t deserve the awesome bunch of you who read this comic).
What I want to say, is that if you have an idea for a comic, or are currently updating a webcomic, enter it the the Fabler, because honestly, if I can win, I think anyone can It’s an awesome bunch who run it, and they’re really passionate about seeing this still very young industry grow into something great.
If you wish to follow the Fabler on Twitter, you can find them here as well
I have added a new item to the store, and instead of a print or some other kind of merch, I’m trying something different. For the past few weeks, I’ve been pulling a few all nighters (having a blast, of course) drawing and writing a side project for Scout, a 12 page mini/digital comic, detailing how Scout and Penny first met. It’s done, and I’m really happy with it, and it can be yours, for the price of $1.00…
What you get with this purchase…
-12 page digital comic
-2 Desktop Wallpapers that won’t be published online.
I’ve searched online for a secure way for people to download this purchase, but I’ve seen that this method could be slightly unreliable, so if you do donate a dollar for this comic, the comic will be securely emailed to you within 24 hours of your purchase.
Again, I couldn’t thank everyone enough for your support and kind words for this comic, it’s awesome to see everyone’s thoughts, you guys are among the top tier of awesome
So the store page has finally come together with the very first Scout Crossing item, a print that can be purchased with the option of 18″ x 24″ OR 11″ x 17″, AND if you purchase a print, I’ll throw in one of the original inked strips from Scout Crossing (I don’t sell these since I do the lettering digitally, so I’m hoping they can find a good home). I want to thank everyone who has been reading Scout, and for everyone who’s been commenting, you guys are an awesome bunch and I’m happy to be able to create this comic for everyone… so thank you!
