I’ve been informed by friends and family that the most recent page of this chapter, number 8, is kinda depressing. FEAR NOT. A hero must be knocked down so that they can hop up and make with the awesome. We are leading up to said AWESOME.
I’ve been a bit behind on Fizzlebit pages. Part of it is due to scripting issues with this chapter. There’s some crazy business that needs to be straightened out for the adventure to follow through the way that I’d like it too. The other reason is that I’ve taken up several non-Fizzlebit side projects in the last two months. At one point, I frantically decided to punch out 9 CMYKed comic pages in the span of a week to take with me as a coloring portfolio for Emerald City Comiccon. Prior to this, I was asked to do some illustrations for Hex Games for their Leopard Women of Venus RPG.
I may be a nerd, but somehow I missed the 20-sided dice train growing up. James played some D&D and told me a few horror stories…friends that stopped being friends! Or just…weren’t good sports. Anyhow, I’m trying to catch up and learn this RPG book game stuff (as opposed to those…video games RPGs…), especially since I contributed art for the final product. Candy is used as experience points with the QAGs system that Hex Games is known for, called Yum Yums. We had to hide the Yum Yums in our house until we finally can sit down and play. Fizzlebit would eat all of it before the game even started. Â (James is guilty of it too…and me, also. )
After Leopard Women of Venus, the fine folks at Hex Games asked if I would be interested in their next title called  Roller Girls Vs., in which Roller Derby girls fight….everything! Well, I did 3 illustrations, so I only drew them fighting zombies, a T-Rex, and Hyper-Intelligent Apes, but they fight other crazy business too, for suresies.
I just wrapped up the last illustration today for my contribution to Roller Girls Vs. Below is my favorite, along with my Leopard Women of Venus drawings. (What, favorite Roller Girls illustration involves a dinosaur? Whoda thought?) The rest will go on that ‘porfolio’ site, which is also behind in the lovin’ category.
