Well, not really new, but updated.
A long while ago, I was in the process of making a comic with my friends by the name of Active Partition. It was meant to be a story about a virus and superpowers and what not; I'd love to summarize it better but unfortunately I'm not very good at that sort of thing. All of the characters in the comic were based off of us; our designs were literally us, and our personalities were somewhat of caricatures of us. I made some concept art, I made eight pages, and then it just sort of fell by the wayside.
This new comic is Active Partition, but with a lot of things redone.
There are a lot of reasons for this, one of them being the art style. I didn't make pages too often because it took a whole lot of effort to make them. All backgrounds were digitally painted; I thought it would be a good way to practice painting, but I soon found out that it meant I had to, you know, paint everything. So everything took far too much effort, and I lost all motivation to make more pages.
Second, looking back on it, making characters that are completely based off of real people is a really slippery road to walk on. Obviously, conflict needs to be created for there to be a story, and if our characters are based off of real people, there's always the chance that those conflicts can leak into real life. That's not really something to look forward to.
Third, I really liked the story, but the way it's presented initially was just...I don't want to say bad, but now that I have a bit more experience with storywriting, it's very rocky. So I'm redoing this.
So!
Now, Active Partition is going to be redone! Yay!
Unfortunately, I won't be posting any pages until I get it filed in the copyright office. I'm planning on getting this published, and I feel uncomfortable posting the comic until I know for sure that it's secure.
I'll be posting character art soon. Stay tuned if you're interested!
Update with WordOfChen
Yesterday, I posted a journal saying that WordOfChen (https://www.deviantart.com/wordofchen) was gathering people to publicly harass Katie AKA !colbalt-rain (https://www.deviantart.com/colbalt-rain). Now, things have calmed down from the time of me writing that, and there are things that I've found out that I feel needs to be pointed out.
1. The people who were harassing Katie were not personally connected to Chen.
The people who were harassing Katie were in no way told directly by Chen to harass her. They were simply passerbys that read his journal and attempted to take matters into their own hands. People on the Internet trying to play the judge, as it were.
2. Chen has since updated his journal telling ever
Bad Things Happening.
I really don't want too much negativity to stem from this, but here goes.
A while ago, !colbalt-rain (https://www.deviantart.com/colbalt-rain) posted a deviation by the name of "writing." I personally thought it was good, but it's been taken down. As it turns out, the general response from this deviation was mixed. Some agreed with the message, some disagreed, and some were downright rude. But that's not the problem.
A man by the name of WordofChen has recently posted a journal where he's gathering people to publicly harass her. It hasn't even been a day and people are already found her Facebook and are planning to harass her on there too.
The journal can be found here.

Commission Info [6/3/2013]
So now that I'm doing a job hunt, I've come to a decision that making money off of drawings would be a pretty neat thing to do. As such, I'll start by making commissions!
I don't really know how to start this off, so...well, hi! I'm a hobbyist artist, and I've been drawing for about seven years now, and Photoshopping for about five. I've done quite a bit in my time, from original comics to pokemon, pokemon comics, fanart, and the like. I'm excited to finally start opening up commissions and dabble in drawing semi-proffesionally! I'll also be doing requests as well, but I will only be doing one at a time, and in terms of priority it is very,
So I have a Tumblr now.
I GUESS THAT MEANS I'M LEAVING DEVIANTART FOREVER HAHAHAHAHAH
no.
Let's face it, as nice as Tumblr is it's kind of a weird place. Plus, this place is more artist oriented, and that's a huge plus.
But yeah...I might draw things there...maybe.

Have fun I guess.
