J.03 - AM I HUMAN?

Hello all, I hope this update finds you well!

Progress is moving along on the Graphic novel, I am currently on chapter 4/5 and trying to get back to working on it daily. I had some other projects take my attention from it for a little while (I've got a tabletop Kickstarter coming up in February) but since the writing is done for that I can focus more on the graphic novel!

That being said I am also experimenting with making stickers myself instead of ordering through a website. If you follow me on Instagram (@gridlock_studios64) you'll see some of them. The print quality, as far as clarity, is still really good. However, there are print lines showing up? This is something I've noticed on other pages I've made with that printer as well so it's not the paper itself, I'm still going to look into it more before I do my final print of the stickers!

But yea, just wanted to give a lil update on the project! It's moving right on along, can't wait to see this bad boy in physical print! If you want to watch me work on it, I stream myself drawing on both Twitch & YouTube as well as having the VOD's uploaded on YouTube. Come by and hang, I'd love to see you there!

Until next time,

Thank you all once a gain for a beautiful campaign! I've always been bad at marketing so seeing this project go the full way with my poor marketing skills has been amazing.

So what now?

Now I am working on setting up late pledges because the project is still a WIP & not quite ready to send off to the printers. That being said, I'm going to be posting sample pages from time to time because I want you all to see the project come together!

Work continues, so thank you once again for believing in my little graphic novel. I thank God for you all!

Thank you all for your support of this little project, I really took a shot in the dark jumping from what I’m used to making on this one.

This is something that I’ve wanted to do as a young bean, so I’m glad to get the chance to make it a reality!

We still have about a day and a half left on this bad boy, so it’s all smooth sailing from here! I thank God for you all & for your support. I’ll give it everything I got!

Hello all!

As we approach the final days of this campaign, I just wanted to say that I am very pleased with how this project has went! My built audience came solely from Tabletop Roleplaying Games, so seeing that I have been able to drum up this much interest in a graphic novel series has been awesome to witness. I thank God for you all!

So what is the current state of the campaign? As of right now, we are just north of $150 from funding & getting this bad boy officially printed. I believe with my whole chest that this thing is gonna slide across the finish line just fine.

To all my fellow creators for Printopia 2025, I want to congratulate you on a job well done! Doing something creative like this & putting yourself out there is no easy task & I applaud all of your for your efforts. It's been fun to be apart of such a supportive group!

To those that wish to watch how I am putting this thing together you should head on down to my Twitch page where I draw, ink, color, letter, and do the whole general thing as a one man army!

The book itself is coming along just fine, I'm currently drawing chapter 3 out of 5! I hit a little rough patch on some panels because I wasn't sure how exactly I wanted to layout the scene, but I finally got it figured out and having been trucking right along!

Currently I am on my laptop or else I would show you some more finished pages, soon I hope to throw a few more yall's way. I'm pretty proud of it so far & I think yall will enjoy it!

So get your pledges in & reserve your copy of your new favorite sci-fi series ;)

Fair winds!
